Beeline has closed one of its most popular and profitable tariffs

What are non-public tariffs?

Cellular operators use various strategies and tricks to expand their customer base. An interesting and effective way to attract customers using special service packages that are not presented on the company’s official website. Beeline uses just such a strategy and, thanks to it, replenishes the ranks of its clients.

Non-public (hidden) tariffs are operator service packages about which there is no data on the official Beeline website. Also, they cannot be purchased at a communication store by simply informing the manager of your intentions.

They are often confused with “closed” ones - those that were relevant some time ago, then went into the archive and cannot be connected to again. Although, closed service packages are closed at first for new users, and those who previously connected continue to use it.

Cost of calls and messages on the “Freestyle” tariff

Calls directed to Beeline numbers will become unlimited if you make a one-time top-up for a total amount of 250 tenge to 990 tenge. This procedure will need to be performed once every 6 days. If you deposit an amount of 990 tenge or more into your account, you can top up once every 30 days.

The first minute of communication with Beeline network subscribers is charged at 9 tenge, subsequent minutes will cost 6 tenge. If you call numbers of mobile operators operating in Kazakhstan, the cost will be 18 tenge per minute. International calls are charged at 15 tenge per minute.

Sending 1 message to users of the Beeline Kazakhstan network will cost 8 tenge, to numbers of other operators - 13.44 tenge. It is possible to send MMS messages to Beeline subscribers - 15 tenge, to other numbers - 25 tenge.

Current hidden Beeline tariffs

All non-public Beeline service packages can be sorted into three types:

1. Personal offers from the operator.
2. Individual corporate plans created through agreements with individual companies.
3. Partner “non-public” packages of the service operator.

It is better to take almost every package for a long time, since if you take an annual period, the savings can be 30-50%.

Personal offers

During any promotional program or in other “personal” cases, Beeline may offer you a special package of services that it would be foolish to refuse. This may happen:

• During an advertising campaign and promotion of the operator’s services to the masses;
• As an incentive for the subscriber to be able to use cellular communications more actively;
• Due to an unpleasant incident, if the fault lies with the operator;
• In an attempt to retain a client who is ready to become a “defector” to another telecom operator.

There are 2 individual non-public service packages that can still be found on the Internet.

Both tariffs with modest characteristics are much more profitable than the services that the provider offers through its official sales channels. These are ideal solutions for subscribers who do not often use the Internet and spend little time on telephone conversations.

It's nice to get your hands on a tariff like this. But you should remember that he will not stay with you forever. Often, individual service packages have their own service life, after which the provider will transfer you to the “base”.

One important point to understand! The operator knows about non-public tariffs, and he allows their existence. He also controls them completely. If the company decides that the tariff should be retired, it will be so. The subscriber will have to come to terms with this decision and take a step on their part: purchase a new non-public tariff, choose the appropriate option from the public one, or switch to another operator with their own number, or with a new SIM card.

Corporate rates by agreement

Corporate clients require a special approach; any company that wants to sell them services knows this. Beeline adheres to this strategy - it offers a set of services in a package and for such a price tag that company employees will be happy to use. From such a deal everyone wins:

• a corporate client who received interesting offers for their employees at below market prices;
• a telecom operator that has attracted a large pool of actively using the services for the transaction.

There are often cases when a corporate client agrees on a network of tariff plans to suit their needs. This makes sense, since communications are used differently for people with different job responsibilities. One needs 5 GB of traffic per month, the other does not have 5 GB for three days.

The gradation of corporate non-public tariffs is well illustrated by the created service packages for X5 employees. This company operates several retail chains: Pyaterochka, Perekrestok, Karusel.

Features of lapis lazuli:

1. Incoming calls throughout the Russian Federation in the Beeline network do not consume minutes.
2. Outgoing calls outside the Russian Federation – 6 rubles. / minute (USA, Canada, CIS, Europe) and 12 rub. / minute for other countries.
3. Outgoing calls to native operator numbers are free.
4. If you use all your accrued traffic, then being on a 4G network, it does not count (full unlimited). Traffic is counted at the end of GB if you are in a different coverage area (for example, 3G or lower).

If you go beyond the specified limits, then:

• Calls to all numbers in the Russian Federation – 1 rub. / minute.
• SMS to Russian numbers – 0.25 rubles. thing.

The most important thing is that you can connect with your phone number.

Why are Beeline's non-public Internet tariffs created for the corporate sector lower than for the average user? This is accompanied by one or a combination of the following factors:

• a large number of active numbers connected in a short period of time;
• reduction of the company's tax base;
• the company, as part of the incentive, “takes upon itself” part of the cost of the subscription fee for communication services, and the rest falls on the shoulders of the employee, and part-time, the newly-made active Beeline subscriber.

What “real” conditions the organization and the operator agreed on will not be announced in public sources. This is a corporate secret to which only authorized persons have access.

By the way, non-public tariffs can be created not only when agreements are concluded between companies. Such options may be implemented due to a fairly large-scale event (Russian sports championship or economic congress). Special service packages are offered to event organizers and participants. Services may be limited for the duration of the associated event.

Offers from Beeline partners

There are many sites on the Internet that sell tariff packages at really competitive prices. You won’t find these on the official website, and if you contact the support of a mobile operator, the employees will throw up their hands and say that they know nothing about this and it’s better to buy from them.

But, as practice shows:

• employees may not know anything about such packages;
• they are forbidden to talk about them;
• they will not be able to sell you a service unless they convince you that purchasing such a tariff risks stumbling upon a “fake” product.

And the essence of the appearance of such offers, bypassing official Beeline channels, is simple: a special company or individual entrepreneur enters into a partnership agreement with Beeline, which stipulates several points:

• development of individual tariffs for implementation by the operator’s partners;
• issuance of service packages in a certain quantity for sale over a certain period.

Because of this approach, it is sometimes difficult to find the same hidden rates on different Internet sources.

An example of a well-developed package of services is a gradation with the name “Key”.

The most current archived tariff plans

In this virtual warehouse of promotions and special offers, there are about 200 tariffs, the terms of which can be easily viewed, and then activated one of the profitable packages for yourself. The following proposals should be considered the most relevant in the presented list:

1. Formula for success - for the Moscow region, subscription fee 990 rub.
2. Everything for business - several sets of different sizes, on which payment depends.
3. Moscow and Moscow Region - regional tariff with good conditions of use.
4. Russia is an advantageous offer for communication throughout the country.
5. Gold business – there are also categories of silver, platinum and bronze.
6. All inclusive XL is a fairly good solution for active Internet users.

There are many more tariff plans in the company’s archive and each of them can be called unique. It is possible to activate the archive tariff for yourself via the Internet, and exactly how to do this needs to be considered in more detail.

Additional options

Often in non-public tariffs there is an “option” item that can be activated or is already included in the subscription fee. A common option is additional traffic consumed after the main limit expires.

Another option is unlimited 4G network when all GB are spent. Essentially, an operator in a densely populated area with 4G access offers unlimited data usage.

Moreover, some tariffs allow you to distribute the Internet to other devices by creating a Wi-Fi access point.

Calls to other countries

It is advantageous to make calls abroad using the Neighbors service. It involves calls from 15 tenge/min to 70 countries of the world!

The cost of outgoing calls to neighboring countries ranges from 15 to 30 tenge/min, to foreign countries – from 30 to 50 tenge/min.

In the first month of connecting to this service, there is a limit of 15 minutes per day (465 minutes per month). But already in the second month of using this service, the restrictions are lifted.

connects for 200 tenge for a month using the short command *525#.

To turn it off, enter *525*0# on your phone.

How to connect a non-public Beeline tariff

There are several ways to become the owner of a non-public package of services:

1. A personal request from the operator (through the support service) to improve the quality of services provided and reduce the threshold of monthly communication costs. There is a chance that Beeline will accommodate the client for a loyal attitude and provide reasonable discounts on the current or “promotional” tariff.
2. You can apply to “switch to another operator” with your number. If the database operator sees that the client has actively used their services, he will try to retain him by offering better options. But keep in mind that there is a risk that Beeline simply will not call you back, sign the application and you will go home.
3. You can become a member of a trade union, contact your boss or colleagues of an organization that has access to hidden services from Beeline. Focus on the fact that the more connected subscribers Beeline has from an organization, the more loyal they will be to the company and can offer favorable conditions in the future.
4. Purchase non-public tariffs from the company’s partners for money. Usually, you need to pay once and wait for connection. The waiting time may vary and is negotiated individually with a Beeline partner.

Summary

A curious situation: at first the mobile operator decided to change “Close People 2” for the better, and then suddenly reversed it. Perhaps the human factor played a role, and there was an error in the description. Or perhaps the changes should have become part of Beeline’s new policy to retain old customers, because over the past year the operator has lost a considerable number of its subscribers. We will never know the truth.

As for the tariff plan itself, it is not yet known what will replace it - an updated version of the same tariff or a completely new offer. In any case, we will keep you updated on upcoming changes.

What are the dangers of using hidden tariffs?

There are a lot of scammers online, and it’s easy to fall for them. Before purchasing anything, always read information about the resource from other sources, draw personal conclusions and understand that there is always a risk.

You may also encounter affiliate tariffs that are issued to “fly-by-night companies.” In general, there is nothing terrible about this, since you will be serviced by the Beeline operator. But there is a risk that this tariff will be closed earlier than the period for which you expected to use it. This partly happens when a company collaborating with Beeline closes and previously concluded contracts are terminated.

Cost of services after using the package

When purchasing a gigabyte package, you can buy it under the terms of automatic renewal of the package after the limit is exhausted. In this case, a new amount of gigabytes will be added immediately after the end of the purchased package. The same number of gigabytes are automatically added as were previously paid for.

If the automatic Internet package renewal function is not activated, then after the package is exhausted, the speed is limited to 8 Kbps.

• After the end of the package of minutes, calls to numbers of all Russian operators are 2.5 rubles per minute;
• After the package of SMS messages is exhausted, the cost of one message to any numbers of Russian operators is 2.5 rubles.

It is worth noting that in order to correctly display the new tariff in the mobile application, it (the mobile application) must be updated in Google Play or the AppStore.
