Hi all! In this article, we will look at the tariffs of the virtual mobile operator (MVNO) Rostelecom: are there really good offers?
Rostelecom
– the largest Russian provider of digital services and services. Provides broadband Internet access, interactive television, cellular communications and other services. Rostelecom has been involved in mobile communications for several years now - a virtual mobile operator was launched on the infrastructure of the operator Tele2, which Rostelecom subsequently bought out 100% (from March 17, 2020, Rostelecom became the sole owner of Tele2).
We will consider Rostelecom’s tariffs using the example of Moscow and the region. In different regions, parameters and prices, as a rule, differ, but most of the nuances and pitfalls are the same for all of Russia. First, let's evaluate the main parameters and features of all tariffs, and then move on to additional parameters that are common to all of them.

Rostelecom's tariffs are very similar to the tariffs of the mobile operator Tele2, but this is not surprising. However, for Rostelecom, everything is more confusing.
Access technologies used
The Perm branch of Rostelecom connects its subscribers in two ways. Method one is using good old telephone lines. They are capable of providing a throughput of up to 20 Mbit/s, which is enough for watching videos, operating digital TV and downloading files via torrents. The actual amount is limited by the length and quality of the telephone line connecting the PBX and the subscriber.
Optical communication lines allow you to connect subscribers at speeds of up to 200 Mbit/s. The cable is run directly into a house or apartment, or brought to a high-rise building, after which subscribers are connected via twisted pair (the gigabit ports used here are capable of providing the highest possible access speed). The disadvantage of optics is that they are difficult to install, especially in the private sector.
Subscribers from Perm can connect to the Internet through city access points launched by Rostelecom. To connect, you need to obtain a login and password by calling 8-800-300-0125. Next, connect to the selected point, enter your username and password, and enjoy access to the network at speeds of up to 1 Mbit/sec.
A program to eliminate the digital divide is available for residents of small settlements in the Perm Territory (with a population of up to 500 people). It allows you to connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi at speeds of up to 10 Mbit/sec, and it’s completely free. To connect, you need to register in your Rostelecom personal account.
Service and self-service
Let's look at Rostelecom's telephone contacts and service office addresses. For subscribers from Perm, a single hotline is available at 8-800-1000-800. Here, requests for repairs are accepted, and consultations are given on the operation of certain services. There is also a balance reporting system in the region at 8-800-300-18-06.
Let's go through the addresses of the official service offices:
- G. Perm, st. Avtozavodskaya, 23.
- G. Perm, st. Pisareva, 33.
- G. Perm, st. Marshal Rybalko, 88.
- G. Perm, st. Belinskogo, 42.
- G. Perm, st. Krupskaya, 26.
- G. Perm, st. Mira, no. 90.
- G. Perm, st. Avtozavodskaya, 44.
- G. Perm, st. Lenina, 68.
- G. Berezniki, Sovetsky Ave., 19.
- G. Berezniki, st. Yubileinaya, 95.
- G. Solikamsk, st. 20th anniversary of the Victory.
- G. Solikamsk, st. Severnaya, no. 70.

- G. Dobryanka, st. Pobeda, 18.
- G. Alexandrovsk, st. Mashinostroiteley, 3.
- G. Chernushka, st. Yubileinaya, 7.
If you are interested in the address of the main office, then the legal address of Rostelecom in the Perm region is Perm, st. Lenina, 68. In terms of subscriber services, all subscriber departments are equivalent. Here you can apply for connection, complain about the quality of services, submit a written complaint, order details, submit an application for recalculation of the subscription fee.
Self-service of subscribers is carried out using a single personal account. It allows you to manage home Internet, landline telephone and digital television. Logging in using a phone number or contract number is not possible here - you must first register and then add the services you use to the system. Instead of the web interface, you can use the My Rostelecom mobile application.
Connection and speed measurement
Submission of applications for connection to Rostelecom in Perm is carried out in the following ways:
- Through service offices - here applications are submitted in writing or orally.
- By phone of Rostelecom technical support 8-800-1000-800 - verbally.
- On the Rostelecom website - first select a service, then indicate contact information in the application.
Applications are sent to Rostelecom technical specialists. They will clarify whether it is possible to connect the subscriber at the specified address, and if so, then using what technology. The most optimal connection method is via optical fiber, since in this case you can get maximum speed for a small subscription fee. But all this is decided only by the operator’s technical specialists.
The Speedtest service from Ookla will help you measure your Internet speed after connecting. It is used by millions of Internet users around the world to conduct tests. For some reason, Rostelecom does not trust this tool; it has its own measurement service - it is located in the “Help - Home Internet” section on the operator’s official website.
How to activate the selected tariff?
If the subscriber has not yet managed to join the ranks of the telecommunications company’s clients and receive his own SIM card, there are several ways to make an initial connection:
- at the nearest provider office;
- by calling the contact number (the least convenient approach);
- by filling out the form on the official website and ordering home delivery.
The application form will require you to provide your exact home address, last name and contact information, including phone number and email. After that, all you have to do is accept the terms of the subscription agreement, agree with the rules for processing personal data and wait a little.
How do you pay
Sberbank ATMs, its payment terminals, its proprietary mobile application and online banking system will help you pay for any communication services from Rostelecom in Perm. For payments using old templates, you will need a region code - 59. In the new templates, it is no longer required; it is enough to make a payment using the unique personal account number for the service.
Payment by bank card is made in the following ways:
- Through numerous ATMs.
- Through the Yandex.Money system.
- Through the official website of Rostelecom.
- Through Rostelecom’s personal account and its mobile application.
You can also pay for Rostelecom communication services through payment terminals and electronic wallets - do not forget to check the amount of the commission.
Internet tariff plans
Let's move on to Internet tariffs, which are divided into three categories - for optical and telephone lines, as well as for Wi-Fi.
