These include unlimited offers and tariffs with prepaid traffic, and buyfly also offers modern equipment for rent to make the Internet truly convenient and fast.

“Super Express” includes interactive television services and Internet at a speed of 15/7.5 Mbit/sec at a price of 27.5 rubles/month.
Personal opinion
I have already compared tariffs with unlimited internet from the Big Four operators. Beeline clearly did not shine then. In this regard, nothing has changed. I believe that this is the worst option for getting unlimited Internet.
For almost 700 rubles per month you get limited packages of minutes with unclear settings. Unlimited Internet – as part of a paid option. You can give it away for money. The SMS package is connected separately and is extremely expensive. Calls to landline numbers, as well as calls to numbers of other operators in other regions, are not included in the package of minutes.
I don’t know about other regions, but for Moscow and the region this is a complete failure.
What is a “service package” and what are the benefits of using it?
A package is a set of several services offered to clients collectively at a more favorable price.
The main features of the package service include:
- The presence in the package of several services provided by Beltelecom - tariffs for calls, Internet and television are combined;
- Using modern technologies to provide high speed Internet access;
- Saving money, since connecting a set of services costs several times less than paying for them separately;
- Convenient payment terms;
- Easy to connect and use.
Subscriber reviews
Some users are not sure that if a worthwhile alternative becomes available, they will not abandon their provider.
The speed is most often unstable and technical support can be quite slow.
However, at the moment, similar offers in the same price range simply cannot be found.
“I shudder to think of it being called high-speed. Compared to Beeline or Netbaynet, this is just a thing of the past. How can the speed of a cable connection be lower than with 3G on a smartphone? I'm upset and want to find an alternative. Online games are banned, except Tetris, but it’s really funny.” Kirill, 27 years old, Minsk
“In our house there is nothing to choose from. The cable was laid during construction, so I don’t have much to discuss. Nevertheless, quite tolerable quality. Not the ultimate dream, but for the average user it may be quite suitable. Social networks and torrenting, if you’re not in a hurry, can be quite successful.” Anna, 35 years old, Mogilev
For a long time, the “Zala” tariff from Beltelecom (television), telephone communications, and Internet were paid separately by subscribers. But, in order to improve the quality of the services provided, as well as to increase the comfort and loyalty of customers, the popular operator has developed completely new offers for individuals, combining into one package the basic, most popular services among subscribers.
Conditions for connecting to a service package
If you decide to immediately connect to a package of services that includes Internet, television and landline telephone, then you need to know:
- Additional packages of minutes on MTS: description, cost, how to connect or disconnect
- This type of connection involves paying for and connecting all services included in the package by the operator at once. That is, it is not possible to exclude or change services at the request of the subscriber.
- When connecting the complex, the operator provides all necessary equipment for use free of charge.
- You can pay for the connected package in cash, card or electronic money.
- Only those subscribers who have a registered Beltelecom phone number have the right to activate the package.
- It is possible to connect the package only if technically possible.
- When subscribers make long-distance calls as part of a package, in addition to spending international minutes, the same number of local minutes from the package is consumed.

What are the benefits of the Internet for older people?
The Internet is endlessly criticized, scolded, and condemned. Everyone is already used to this. But what is his fault? The most typical accusations are based on the fact that, due to the Internet, many:
- We stopped reading books, visiting libraries, going to the cinema with loved ones;
- They replaced live communication with virtual communication, robbing themselves.
Believe me, all this criticism is aimed mainly at the young and middle generation of people, as well as children. But please think about another category: seniors over 50 years of age. These people are capable of becoming good computer and Internet users. But, unlike young people, they rationally manage their time on the Internet. This means that older people are more open to the value of time, as a result of which they try to live an organized life, having time to go for a walk, visit friends in the hospital, work at the dacha, chat with peers in a club of interests, and chat on Skype. talk to the children. Older people read their usual printed newspapers and books, regularly buying them or getting them from the library, but at the same time, they are happy to review information on the Internet. Older people cannot imagine their life without traditional trips to the cinema, but at the same time, they willingly watch TV series and videos on the Internet.
Young people really shouldn’t disappear at the computer 24 hours a day to the detriment of their family, work, household chores, and hobbies. Many young people are busy building careers and relationships with loved ones. They really need to be more engaged in real life, and not in the virtual world on the monitor, communicating with “live” colleagues, and not with bots on social networks.
The germination of computer illusions in the world will never take place without sad, dramatic consequences. There is plenty of evidence of this. Our article has a slightly different topic. We are talking about the importance of the Internet specifically for older people.
Scientists have proven that regular use of the Internet by older people brings them moral satisfaction, that at their age they can also master new technologies, and that they have the intelligence to study various programs and computer processes. And satisfaction for older people is good therapy. And that is not all. Scientists have proven that older people, being online, are less susceptible to the aging process and the risk of strokes. The Internet has an invaluable positive impact on older people.
The sophisticated process of searching for information materials on the Internet is an excellent stimulator of brain activity. Researchers using various instruments (for example, magnetic resonance scanners to measure coefficients of functional brain activity) have proven the fact that when using the Internet, people perform several simultaneous tasks. Their brain studies texts and images, concentrates on what is happening on the monitor, remembers a lot of necessary data, switches from one tab to another, etc. For older people, this is hyperactive exercise for the brain!
The process of searching, then reading the materials you are looking for and watching videos stimulates the brain more than the classic reading of printed books, newspapers and magazines. Moreover, this action is recorded for quite a long time. So it turns out that older people do not need to give up spending a couple of hours on the Internet.
Also, thanks to the Internet, many older people began to earn money. This money is not only additional income to your pension benefit, it is, first of all, a feeling of importance and need, an opportunity to realize your skills, knowledge, and experience. Elderly people sell hand-knitted, embroidered, and made creations on special Internet resources, write articles to order, and give private lessons via Skype. This is another advantage of the Internet.
Of course, many older people still only dream of finding a part-time job on the Internet. They're not sure if they can handle it. They don't know where they could learn this. They feel confused because they don't know where to start. And here, of course, we need to support older people, because everyone was once a beginner. Fortunately, there are many online courses that provide a sufficient measure of knowledge to get started, and there are online consultations for those who have been successfully working on the Internet for many years.
Older people have important life experience and invaluable knowledge accumulated over the years in various fields and could give people paid coaching consultations. Older people can do so many things! They knit, embroider, sew, do woodworking, do massages and hairstyles, cook delicious food, raise grandchildren, master foreign languages, understand herbs, know the secrets of gardening, grow magnificent flowers... It’s too much to list! Elderly people each have their own hobby - something that they know how to do better than others.
