Loss of relevance due to the cancellation of intranet roaming
In 2021, Tele2 abandoned intranet roaming in Russia. In accordance with the requirements of the Federal Antimonopoly Service to reduce the cost of long-distance calls, leading mobile operators have adjusted their current tariffs.
Roaming in Russia for Tele2 subscribers has been completely canceled since August 31. It was considered inappropriate - there is no economic justification for the phenomenon. The company decided not to take into account roaming when servicing subscribers. You can find out how the tariff has changed using the code *107#.
As a result, Tele2 number owners are no longer needed. As part of the package at a particular tariff, the subscriber can call from anywhere in Russia. In general, offers with a monthly subscription fee are beneficial for travelers. By paying for a whole month, they can move comfortably and not worry about additional fees. The offer applies to calls, messages and Internet traffic.
