Beeline roaming in Turkey - how to activate a tariff, how much calls abroad cost


When traveling, subscribers want to enter and exit international territories without fear that their rates will rise sharply. Beeline roaming in Turkey (the most popular holiday destination) will be provided on favorable terms if the user chooses a convenient tariff plan or activates an additional option. Then calls abroad will become cheap and the Internet will have no restrictions.

Rules for using mobile communications for tourists

10 nuances and questions about mobile communications in Turkey that you need to know about before purchasing a SIM card:

  • Mobile operators.
    There are three main mobile operators in Turkey: TurkTelekom, TurkCell, Vodafone and several small (virtual) operators.
  • Limitation on the validity period of the SIM card.
    It is important to know! The SIM card will be active for up to 90 days. This is due to the fact that tourists can legally stay in Turkey for a maximum of 90 days, after which you must either leave the country or receive a residence permit.
  • Documents for obtaining a telephone number.
    To purchase you will need a passport
  • Payment for communication services.
    The easiest way for tourists to pay for communications is through operator branches in stores and shopping centers.
    I advise you to purchase a package tariff plan
    , because in this case the Internet and phone calls will be much cheaper.
  • Internet.
    Mobile Internet in Turkey often works much better than landline Internet. You will need it to navigate around the country, to view what fines you have, to book hotels, etc.

Important to remember! Any SIM card purchased for a foreign passport will be active for up to 90 days and a phone number will be included with it; after this period, you can simply throw it away.

As you can see, buying a SIM card is not difficult, but that’s not all, let’s continue...

  • What to do when visiting the country again.
    Since the cards only work for 90 days, be prepared for the fact that when you visit the country again, you will have to buy a SIM card again, and this is a fact; if more time has passed, it will be deactivated. For this reason, you should not leave your phone number to everyone, because it is temporary. And purchasing a new card is an additional expense, approximately 100 liras or 1050 rubles.
  • Blocking a cell phone during a long stay in the country.
    Keep in mind that phones purchased outside of Turkey will simply stop working after 120 days if you do not pay the tax on the imported phone. Here we are not talking about a telephone number, but about a device. This is due to the fact that initially mobile phones in Turkey are a little more expensive.

Keep in mind that from January 1, 2021, the tax on an imported phone is 1838 Turkish lira, which is approximately equal to 19115.2 rubles or $315. For a dual-SIM device, the tax is more expensive.

To register your imported phone, you will need to obtain a tax number in Turkey.

  • The process of choosing a tariff and the difficulties of communicating with sellers.
    Be prepared for the fact that at points of sale, not all employees are well versed in their own tariff plans; in addition, not all of them speak Russian or even English.
    As you understand, mobile communications are quite specific and have many technical aspects that are quite difficult to figure out without knowing the language. Another life hack is related to the purchase of the SIM card itself, if it suddenly happens that the seller speaks only Turkish and he does not understand other languages, then just tell him yeni sim-card (new SIM card) and it will be in your pocket!
  • Mobile phone theft.
    In Turkey, it is not customary to steal mobile phones; theft in general is quite rare. What to do if your mobile phone is stolen? It's simple: you need to immediately contact the police, because the likelihood that your phone will be found is quite high.
  • Is there an alternative to the major telecom operators?
    Yes, I have. In this article I will tell you about another little-known BIM operator (SIM cards of which can be easily purchased at any BIM network store)
  • Do not buy a SIM card at the airport , as you know, everything costs more there than in the city!
  • Eliminate minutes and SMS from your data plan to save money. Almost every telecom operator has a tariff plan in which you can increase, for example, Gigabytes, which is more important for a tourist and at the same time there is no extra charge, i.e. no minutes, no SMS. Try to explain when purchasing a card and perhaps you will be connected to a more favorable tariff at the moment!

Roaming MTS

When planning a trip abroad to any country, including Turkey, you need to understand that all international roaming services on the cellular network are not cheap, and we are not just talking about MTS. But, if you still decide to activate roaming, choose the option that is most suitable not only for your budget, but also for the volume of traffic, minutes and SMS.

The operator provided three options at once:

  1. The first option is “Zero without borders”: 95 rubles. subscription fee will give you 10 minutes for incoming, from 2nd to 5th for outgoing. Everything else – 60 rubles. in a minute.
  1. The tariff is perfect for those who keep their phone with them, as they say “in case of emergency,” or for those who like to communicate a lot.
  2. “Free travel” - this option will cost the client 190 rubles. daily subscription fee. The service package includes 60 general purpose minutes, i.e. there is no division into incoming and outgoing. A good offer for those who decided to relax in Turkey and stay in touch with their homeland.
  3. The only drawback is the lack of internet. Although the last drawback can be compensated for using Wi-Fi (of course, if someone near you has access to the Internet).
  4. Option “Zabugorische” on the SMART tariff. In this case, for 320 rubles. per day you will be provided with 100 incoming and outgoing minutes, plus Internet in the amount of the home package. As they say: talk to your family and stay in touch with the world.

Where to buy a SIM card?

The procedure is carried out in the communication salon where the SIM card was purchased, it costs about 10 liras. If there is no registration within a month of being in the country, the phone is blocked and becomes inaccessible to the network.

Other Internet services

The company provides its subscribers with the opportunity to use two more convenient services that may be useful when traveling abroad. The first of these is notifications while roaming. In order not to be left with a negative balance after spending all your funds, you can use a special service, within which there will be a financial threshold for the use of traffic. When the limit is reached, you will receive a special notification and will be able to top up your account in a timely manner. To connect the option, use the command *110*1471#. Combination to disable the option: *110*1470#. You can connect and disconnect the service free of charge. The second no less useful option is to set a ban on online roaming. This option will be of interest to those subscribers who are not at all interested in using the Internet abroad. If you activate this service, you will only work with mobile communications.

Which option is better for a tourist?

Before choosing a Turkish SIM card, you should think about what you need to purchase. Using the services of Turkish mobile operators is beneficial only if you stay in a foreign country for a long time. There is no particular price advantage for communications and the Internet over Russian roaming. When you come to relax for a week or two, you shouldn’t bother with getting a SIM card, because the procedure will take a lot of time.

If you still need to buy a SIM card, then of the three Turkish providers Vodafone is preferable. It offers optimal conditions for calls on local and international lines, and favorable Internet in Turkey.

The second most profitable provider is Avea. Recommended for subscribers who constantly use the Internet. Tariffing for internal calls is carried out according to the principle: the more money in the account, the less the call costs. But international calls are expensive (up to 50 liras per minute call).

Turkcell is the least profitable. To make a call, you will have to shell out a decent amount of money. Telephone calls and SMS are more expensive than with Russian roaming.

The tourist decides which mobile connection to use while vacationing in Turkey, focusing on personal needs and financial capabilities. Some vacationers value conversations and SMS messages, while others value Internet access. Turkish providers set prices for their services that are not much different from Russian roaming. Therefore, when coming for a short vacation, it is better to use roaming than to apply for a Turkish SIM.

Operators - partners

In Turkey, Beeline cooperates with three local mobile companies that help it maintain high-quality communications. Among the partners of the Russian operator:

  • Avea lletisim Hizmetleri AS, which appears on phone monitors as Turk Telekom;
  • Vodafone TR, which is easily identified by its famous icon and corresponding inscription;
  • Turkcell, displayed on monitors as Tcell, TR Tcell or Turkcell.

FAQ

1. How much internet do you need on holiday in Turkey?

It all depends on your needs. If you only need the Internet for chatting on Viber or WhatsApp, not very actively scrolling through Instagram and navigating around the city, then 300-400 MB per day should be enough. If you like to watch Youtube or something similar, you may need more than 1 GB per day.

Based on this, you need to understand whether you have access to Wi-Fi at the hotel or beach where you are relaxing. For example, Istanbul has deployed a free Wi-Fi network throughout the city. In Antalya, it is also available on city beaches and in public places. From this understanding, you can already adjust your needs and choose the appropriate mobile Internet tariff.

2. The Internet has run out, what should I do?

You can go to a communication store and ask to connect a new package. Or connect it yourself in the mobile application.

3. How long does a Turkish SIM card remain active?

If you don’t replenish your balance, then about 6 months.

4. How to make cheap calls from Turkey to Russia to Russian numbers?

This can be done for free, even within your tariff. If you have a Megaphone, use eMotion. If you have MTS - MTS Connect (in the reviews they write that it can be buggy).

To use you will need an internet connection. In this case, calls will come from your real number.

5. How can you avoid losing money in international roaming with a Russian SIM card?

To do this you need:

  • Enable a ban on international roaming in the mobile application, personal account on the website or in the office of the mobile operator (for each SIM card).
  • Turn off mobile data.

However, there are still cases when some write-offs occur. Check in the app!
