We discussed the description and price of the Beeline “All 2” tariff plan - it’s time to talk about how you can activate services on your phone.
Pro or not Pro
When a new model of any device comes out, the natural step is to compare and analyze the characteristics of its old version and the new one. Let's start with this. Intuitively, we know that the Pro 2 should be better, more convenient and more advanced than the older Pro model. But is it?
Even if you don’t read it too closely, it’s clearly clear that the characteristics seem to have been “mixed up,” so swapping the names would be better. But no, this is not a mistake! And if you can live Glonass LTE is disappointing, to put it mildly. In terms of “power,” the Pro 2 is in no way inferior to its predecessor, but the reduced battery capacity is a stretch.
Methods for changing the tariff plan
There are the following options for changing tariff offers from the Beeline mobile operator:
- using a mobile device;
- via a PC, laptop or tablet after registering your personal account;
- directly at the organization's office.
This allows customers to choose the most convenient way to replace their old communication package with a new one.
You can change the tariff offer in your Personal Account.
Before performing such a procedure, the operator recommends that you familiarize yourself with the current offers. To do this, you need to dial the combination *110*05# on your smartphone and send it to the operator. After this, an SMS will be sent to your phone with the name of the current tariff.
The price of changing the tariff depends on the number of similar procedures already performed by the user during the month and ranges from 100 rubles. This service is provided free of charge only if the previous tariff change was made more than a month ago.
Via phone
Switching to another service package from your phone is the most convenient option for completing the procedure.
To do this, call the number of your cellular provider:
- 0611 - combination of numbers for Beeline clients;
- 8 (800) 700-0611 - telephone number for calls from numbers of other cellular providers.
You can switch to another service package via phone.
Citizens' calls are answered by an answering machine, the instructions of which must be followed in order to change the package.
In "Personal Account"
You can change the tariff using the Internet at home yourself. To do this, you need to log in and follow the site navigation.
Procedure:
- subscriber login to the personal account;
- entering your login and password in the appropriate fields;
- go to the “View all tariffs” subsection;
- opening the desired tariff plan from the list that opens;
- Clicking on the “Select tariff” button.
After completing all of the above steps, the program automatically transfers the client to the page for changing the mobile service package. A message is sent to your cell phone with a transaction confirmation code, after entering which in the field that opens on the screen, the service will be activated.
Contacting the Beeline communication salon
The transition to another tariff package is carried out through the mobile operator Beeline.
The client personally comes to the organization’s salon and changes the tariff to:
- telephone;
- 3G or 4G modem;
- another device.
To complete the procedure, the citizen presents his passport to the salon manager for identification and confirmation of his ownership of the mobile SIM card. To activate a postpaid service package, the operator may require the provision of additional documents.
Equipment
The packaging is quite bright and durable. Modest and tasteful, and the instructions deserve special praise. It's very well made. It is striking that the absence of Latin in the names and inscriptions on the box is quite unusual. There are a lot of inscriptions on the box: there are technical support numbers, mobile “help”, and the technical characteristics are completely duplicated twice.
Inside the box you will find:
- Smartphone "Beeline Pro2"
- Charger with USB cable (mini usb)
- User guide
- Warranty card
- SIM card
Of course, I would like at least some more headphones, but, unfortunately, even the simplest “plugs” are missing

Appearance
The appearance is different from the Pro, but not much. The smartphone looks quite simple; no elements make the eye stop. However, the appearance of a smartphone also does not evoke negative emotions. You can choose from two colors: white and black.
You can easily control your smartphone with one hand without fear of dropping it. The phone fits comfortably in the palm of your hand, but you can feel the sharp edges of the new product to the touch: perhaps this is a matter of habit, but the almost half a centimeter difference in width between my iPhone 5S and the smartphone from Beeline does its job.
After walking around with the phone for a day, you forget about this difference and with pleasant feelings you take out the brand new Pro 2 from your jeans pocket.
The back cover is made of non-slip plastic, so the phone fits quite tightly in the hand, but is very susceptible to fingerprints. After 15 minutes of use, the smartphone already looks quite dirty. The same applies to the front panel of the smartphone.
On the front there is a very small decorative edge made of black plastic that protects your phone screen when it is lying with the most valuable part facing down.
Above the screen there is a front camera and a speaker. However, there are no indicators at all indicating missed calls, messages or other notifications received: when the screen is off, the phone appears “dead”.
At the bottom of the screen there are 3 touch keys, from their design you can guess where one or another will take you. They are not illuminated.
On the sides there is a standard set: on the right is the power key, on the left is the volume control, on top is a headphone jack and a “socket” for USB. For ergonomics, the new “raccoon” gets a solid A: all the controls are in their place and are convenient .

Connecting and disconnecting
We will tell you how to activate the Beeline “All 2” tariff - all of the above methods are suitable for any operator’s offer. Let us remind you once again that the TP has been archived and is closed for connecting new subscribers.
However, previously there were several options for switching to the Beeline “All 2” tariff - we’ll talk about them:
- Call the support service 0611. Contact a specialist who will independently carry out all the necessary manipulations;
- Open your personal account on the website or in the mobile application, go to the “Tariffs” menu and select the desired option;
- Activate the TP through the official website - open the offer page and click on the “Go” icon. You must be a subscriber of the operator;
- Dial 0850 – the voice menu will turn on. Following the instructions from the autoinformer, go to the desired option and carry out all the necessary actions;
- Contact our convenient sales and service office, but don't forget to bring your passport with you.
We talked about how you can switch to using TP. It's time to note how to disable Beeline's "All 2" tariff.
- Completely refuse the operator’s services and terminate the contract for receiving communications;
- Select another tariff plan and activate it using the chosen method; the tariff plan will be replaced automatically.
You have learned everything an active subscriber needs to know about the Beeline “All 2” tariff - reviews from existing customers will help you determine the feasibility of connecting to the offer. Next, check out the “all three” tariff.
Under the lid
The back cover can be removed quite easily, however, to put it in place, I had to carefully walk around the perimeter of the smartphone and “squeeze” all the latches. Inside, everything is as usual: slots at the top for a SIM card and memory card, and just below there is a 1700 mAh Li-Ion battery.
The battery charge will not be enough for a whole day of active surfing the Internet or destroying all kinds of monsters in toys, but such a small capacity will be enough to maintain contact with colleagues/parents/family. There will even be enough time to listen to music and take the necessary photographs.
Internet at the “All 2” tariff
As already noted, within the tariff you are provided with 6 GB of Internet traffic for use. This limit is calculated for the Moscow region. The Internet within the “All 2” tariff can be used throughout Russia, except for some regions of the country and Crimea. Internet tariffs are not provided in Crimea. Internet connection is made after paying 3 rubles per 1 MB.
If this amount does not suit you, you can purchase double the amount of traffic for an additional fee. You need to top up your account with an amount that is equal to the monthly payment for services. But you need to pay before the 1st day of the month, that is, before the settlement date. This approach is convenient because you pay for the month in one payment, without the need to pay a daily subscription fee.
To extend the traffic of Internet services in case of their premature termination, there are two types of services that can be connected without outside help. It is better to do this to avoid Auto-renewal of Internet services, which is an expensive pleasure.
- makes it possible to use the Internet at the following rates: 1 GB of speed for 250 rubles, 4 GB for 500 rubles;
- The cost of the Highway option depends on the area of residence. Subscribers are offered traffic in the amount of 1 to 30 GB. The cost ranges from 90 – 700 rubles per month.
Camera
This phone has a camera. But to become a professional Instagram blogger, it is better to look in favor of more expensive models from the Enov family: the front camera will not allow you to take acceptable pictures.

But the rear camera is very decent, and it is more than enough to capture the most necessary moments of a business trip abroad, a vacation, or someone else’s notebook with proven homework.
On the left is a photo taken with the rear camera in daylight, and on the right is at night. Clickable
Ways to get cashback
To receive cashback in the amount of 10% of the payment to your account, you must activate Autopay directly in the Veon . Cashback will be credited in the first ten days of the month following the month of payment in the form of bonus rubles. They are valid for only one month after enrollment. Bonus rubles can be spent on any local and long-distance calls, sending messages, mobile Internet or fees for the connected tariff and options, including when traveling around the country. In this case, 1 ruble is equal to one bonus.
When the subscriber is abroad, bonus rubles will not be spent. You can check the balance of bonuses using the command * 107 # . A bonus is a discount on cellular services and cannot be exchanged for money. There is a limit to receiving cashback - no more than 1000 bonuses per month.
Interface
The OS we are offered is Android 5.0 Lollipop. On Pro 2, Android did not suffer any changes, no shells or “add-ons”, except that additional applications from Beeline were added. Apparently, the main emphasis .
Among the pre-installed Beeline services there are some banal ones, but there are also those that were able to pleasantly surprise me:
- My beeline
- BiInfo
- BeeMusic
- Learn languages (Foreign languages)
- Replace the horn
- Fines
- Beeline TV
If everything is clear with my friend My Beeline - this is the most ordinary application where you can see your balance, connected services, remaining Internet traffic and immediately manage it all, then Learn Languages .
“ Foreign Languages ” is a convenient application from Beeline for learning foreign words. There are 5 popular languages to choose from – English, German, French, Spanish and Italian. There is a standard set of words and expressions for learning with pictures and the ability to listen to pronunciation; you can also add new words to this list that you would like to learn. The application freezes periodically, but this is its only drawback.
" BiInfo " is a rather convenient and useful thing. News, weather, horoscope, exchange rates, search on Wikipedia - it's all here. The application will tell you about the latest Beeline news and news on any topic. This is a hub of useful and necessary information.
But we will finish getting acquainted with Pro 2 on the Beeline TV .
The application sometimes plays peculiar tricks, such as not wanting to show anything at all, but in general you can watch TV shows comfortably and at high speed. It is only useful for local use, especially since traffic for viewing via Beeline TV will not be consumed.
How much do communication services cost?
So, the “Everything 2” tariff from Beeline offers 400 minutes, 500 messages and 6-12 GB of traffic. But some of these features only work if certain conditions are met:
- Minutes from the package are spent on:
- outgoing to Beeline, regardless of the location of the interlocutor;
- outgoing to numbers served by other Russian operators.
- outgoing calls to Beeline to any region are free;
- outgoing calls to numbers served by other operators – 2 rubles per minute.
- incoming calls from Russian numbers – 2 rubles per minute;
- outgoing to Russian numbers – 2 rubles per minute;
- SMS – 2 rubles;
- mobile internet: 6 rub. for the first 3 MB, then a 110 MB package for 200 rubles, then 2 rubles/MB.
Please note that the above prices for calls after the package has been exhausted are valid only if the subscriber has independently disabled “Auto-renewal of minutes”. This option activates itself and adds 50 minutes of communication. Each extra package costs 50 rubles.
When all megabytes from the base package have been spent, . This means that 100 megabytes of traffic are automatically purchased for 50 rubles.
You can refuse both renewal services:
- extension of minutes - by calling 06740921;
- Internet speed extension - by calling 0674717780 or USSD command *115*230#.
If you refuse additional minutes, the tariff rules specified in the list above will apply. If you refuse additional megabytes, you will still be able to access the network, but the operator will not provide connection speeds higher than 65 Kbps.

Judge for yourself:
Irina : “I’m very pleased with the tariff: it has everything and, moreover, in the right quantity. For a long time I was looking for a tariff package that would combine modest rates for calls and access to the network. Thanks to Beeline - I made you happy!”
Evgeniy : “Very advantageous offer “All 2.” I joined it and don’t regret it at all. For pennies here you can get everything you need, which is enough for a month. A very interesting double traffic promotion, it’s just a pity that they have a short time frame for it. But basically the package is an A plus.”
Victor : “This tariff can be renamed “People’s”, it suits everyone. The only drawback is the automatic extension of speed when the monthly traffic limit is used up, but we quickly fixed this and now use Highway instead. Thanks to Beeline for taking care of us.”
