The mobile operator Yota, which provides optimal mobile communication tariffs for residents of the Leningrad region, has several advantages over other cellular operators. This operator was especially popular among young people, because it provided inexpensive tariffs for mobile Internet.
But in 2021, the operator abandoned unlimited for a number of reasons:
- The average volume downloaded by one user during the company's existence was only 5 GB;
- Refusal from full unlimited Internet allowed us to reduce the cost of subscriber fees.
To set up tariffs, this mobile operator using the Megafon network provides a convenient mobile application. With its help, any user can always change the terms of the tariff to more favorable ones.
True, after the last update of the application, there were a lot of people who were disappointed with the innovations and a large number of changes. But let's hope that all the shortcomings will be eliminated in the future.
What other advantages of Yota in the Leningrad region can please subscribers of this operator? Let's figure it out.

But, if you try to use the same SIM card with this tariff plan in a tablet, you will not be able to take advantage of this Yota tariff and its advantages. The speed of such a connection will drop to 64 kb/s. This means you won’t be able to comfortably use this tariff on a tablet.

Where is the signal quality better?
Communications Eta is constantly expanding its coverage, but cannot yet provide a guarantee of high-quality communications in all regions of the country. Even with ideal operation of all base stations, the quality of the transmitted signal will vary significantly. For example, in large settlements it will be significantly better than in small towns. And many users claim that, for example, in St. Petersburg, communication is much better than in the capital.
How to activate a Yota SIM card without an application?
This is due to various reasons:
- the coverage map does not take into account the terrain features, assuming that the coverage area is in the direct line of sight of the base station;
- dense urban areas or overload of a nearby base station can also affect data transfer speeds;
- physical remoteness of the operator's tower, even if it is located in line of sight.
Therefore, the best option would be to check the quality of the Eta signal on your own. However, you should be aware that the weak signal increases significantly when using an external antenna.

Advantages of tariff plans of the mobile operator Yota
This is a relatively young but promising operator. Until recently, he used Megafon’s networks, but gradually began to switch to his own capacities. The main advantages of the fifth federal cellular operator are:
- Unlimited Internet. When this operator first entered the Russian market, it was the first to offer 100% unlimited Internet. And it made a lot of noise. It is thanks to this that the famous MTS “Unlimited” tariff and its analogues from other Big Three operators appeared. With this benefit, you can watch movies online without the fear that your package will end before the calendar month. As often happens with other operators.
- No roaming. If you often travel around Russia, then this Yota advantage will be the main one for you to switch to this operator. You don't need to enable additional options for this. And thanks to Megafon’s networks, the quality of Yota’s work in any region of Russia is always at its best.
- Possibility to customize the tariff for yourself. Depending on the intensity of use of cellular communications or mobile Internet, you can easily select the most optimal tariff for yourself. Using the “Tariff Builder” on the website and mobile application of this operator, this is very easy to do.
