How does Yota roaming work in Russia and abroad?

Yota is a cellular operator that offers subscribers the most favorable conditions. It is he who serves subscribers with the most inexpensive and high-speed Internet, huge packages of free calls and SMS in their home region. Users often go on trips and experience discomfort due to cellular communications. Iota roaming abroad tariffs 2021 will allow you to constantly be online without spending a fortune. The operator offers you conditions from your home region for a whole month. After 30 days in roaming, you will automatically be transferred to the most favorable conditions.

Domestic roaming Yota

Just a couple of years ago, one could only dream of a roaming-free space throughout Russia - subscribers complained about paid incoming calls, expensive outgoing calls and ungodly expensive mobile Internet. Today, the line between home and guest networks is practically erased, and intranet roaming pleases us with standard tariffs for all services. Almost all cellular operators in our country can boast of such conditions (at least on certain tariff plans).

On-network roaming from Yota (Eta) will please us with the absence of alternative tariffication. That is, we can easily move from region to region, always staying connected at home tariff (if more than 30 days, then the tariff will change slightly) .

For example, when traveling from Moscow to Krasnodar, for the first 30 days you will pay for communication services at the standard rate. After 30 days it will change a little - it will become more expensive to call. But even in this case, Yota roaming in Russia remains profitable.

Yota in roaming works as well as the base stations closest to the subscriber are free from traffic. In populated areas with 4G, the speed will be higher than in areas where only 3G works. Given the operator’s widest coverage area, you will stay connected in almost all Russian regions.

The ability to move around Russia with Iota without roaming is relevant for travelers and business travelers. We recommend purchasing a SIM card and keeping it in reserve in case of an unexpected trip.

Temporary SIM card blocking

If you do not want your SIM card to be included in roaming abroad, you can temporarily block the SIM card while traveling. Any of the methods given above will do this. When contacting Yota technical support, do not forget to clarify that you are blocking the SIM card temporarily and plan to restore it after returning to Russia. If due to an accident the number is blocked forever, as if the card is lost, it will no longer be possible to restore it.

When you return back to Russia, you can unlock the SIM card and restore all services connected to it. To do this, it is not necessary to contact a consultant in the same way that you used to block the SIM card. Regardless of the chosen method of communication with support, any consultant will be able to solve any problem.

Across Russia

Yes, yes, now the concept of Iota roaming in Russia does not exist! And this is excellent news for those who even occasionally change their location zone, not to mention those who do it quite often (business trips, travel, etc.). Any city in Russia - one SIM card - one tariff, and the same communication costs. Comfortable? Without any doubt! By purchasing a SIM card from a given operator and Internet provider, for example, in Saratov, users can move throughout the Russian Federation and spend not a ruble more on communications than if they were in Saratov.

Since Yota canceled roaming in Russia, the terms of use remained the same:

  • There is no need to connect any additional options or services to save your balance;
  • Internet access remains the same, but which standard (4G, 3G or 2G) will be active depends on the location of subscribers;
  • All incoming messages are free.

In addition to these three main points, Yota has remained true to itself in that it does not have complex tariff plans, with options that can be connected without the knowledge of clients. And also the fact that users do not have to wait for the end of the billing month to switch to another tariff plan - this feature is highly valued by many subscribers. Today, only the Yota company provides roaming in Russia on such favorable terms of use.

How to choose the number of minutes in the tariff

For subscribers who have previously used package offers for calls from Yota or other mobile operators, there will be no difficulties - they know very well how much time it takes to communicate on the phone.

For those who are encountering this task for the first time, you should look into your phone’s settings and look for the “Call Duration” or “Call Counter” item there; in some phone models, these parameters are located in the call menu. To evaluate the data obtained, you need to know when this counter was last reset to zero.

Important: this service is currently available only to residents of the capital.

Dial order.

To dial the number correctly, select one of the combinations shown below.

8-10 - 380 (international prefix of Ukraine) - three-digit code of the mobile operator of Ukraine - phone number - call.

Tariffing for tablets and modems

Yota cheerfully announces that the Internet on the tablet will work throughout Russia. This is true, but you still shouldn’t forget about the “Regional” tariff. It is included under the same conditions as the tariff for smartphones. Internet tariffs are becoming more expensive:

  • A day online – 100 rubles.
  • A month on the Internet – 800 rubles.
  • Annual access to the network – 6,000 rubles.

Voice calls in roaming from the Yota operator are charged at 5.9 rubles/min. SMS cost the same – 5.9 rubles/piece.

As for modems, Internet tariffs depend on the subscriber’s region of residence. If he does not want to use such prices, it is better to disable access to mobile data. In other words, if you leave Moscow for the Krasnodar Territory, Krasnodar prices will start working on the modem. The same applies to routers.

It is useless to travel abroad with a modem or router - the equipment only works in Russia.
