The Rostelecom “SuperSimka” tariff series has been closed for connecting new subscribers since February 2021. Those who previously connected tariffs of this series can use them under the old conditions. Current tariffs for mobile communications from Rostelecom are here >>>

Communication from Rostelecom is

Cool! Sucks!

Rostelecom recently introduced a whole family of “Super Simka” tariff plans, which included 5 different offers. Today in our article we will look at the conditions for using and connecting each of them.

How to connect

Subscribers who are satisfied with the terms of the “SuperSIMKA Free” tariff plan need to connect it. You can activate TP in 4 ways:

  • Send an SMS with the text “15” to number “220”;
  • Call the customer service center - “8-800-100-0800”. The operator will connect the TP or explain how this can be done;
  • Log in to your account on the page: “rt.ru”. Select the appropriate TP in the parameters;
  • Ask Rostelecom representatives to change the service package. You need to come to the office first.

New customers can order a SIM card directly through the website. After processing the data, the courier will deliver the goods to the specified address. The subscriber will only have to activate the number.

How to connect tariff S, M and L

If you don’t have a Rostelecom SIM card, you can buy one at the company’s service offices. Each card has the required tariff and subscription fee configured. If the client has Rostelecom products, he just needs to change the tariff.

You can do this in several ways:

  • Through your personal account. On the official website of PJSC Rostelecom, find the Personal Account tab. Log in there using your username and password. If there is no access, connect it via the hotline 8 800 100-08-00, or by contacting a company employee. You should remember your password and login well. Go to the My services section and select the function of changing the tariff plan. Go to the tab and change to the Super SIM card S, M and L tariff. Before doing this, you must agree to the terms of the Public Offer.
  • Contact your mobile operator by dialing 111 on your phone. Using the answering machine, select the desired tariff plan and replace the existing one with a new one. A notification about a SIM card tariff change will be sent to your phone within one hour.
  • By sending an SMS message to number 220 with code 11 for the S tariff, 12 for M, and 13 for L.

This is the easiest way. After a certain amount of time, a confirmation message will be sent from customer support.

Existing tariffs

In total, the company has developed 8 tariffs that cover almost all the existing needs of a modern subscriber (they, of course, are far from Beeline with its huge assortment, but on the other hand, why do you need so much).

The line includes several families:

  • (S, M, L, XL, FREE)
  • Base

So, the tariff plans of the “For All” packages differ from others not only in the range of services, the number of included minutes and Internet traffic, but also in the fact that they can be “shared” between your friends and acquaintances. Of course, they must have previously purchased SIM cards from Rostelecom and completed other recommended operations to connect to the community. In any case, the final payer will be the one for whom the tariff was issued, and who and how will put the money in your pocket is up to you.

The SuperSimka family is a standard approach to creating a package, the same as that of any other operator in the Russian Federation, that is, for a separate subscription fee for individual use, you are provided with a certain number of included minutes for making outgoing calls to all telecom operators, Internet traffic and SMS.

SuperSIM FREE stands apart from the entire RT line, although it is part of the family of the same name. The bottom line is this: there is no subscription fee, they wanted to call, they called, and they paid 1.5 rubles for every minute of conversation. The same situation is with the Internet and SMS.

So, RT offers a very good tariff schedule, compared to what the Big Three have. But here’s the problem - Tele2 offers exactly the same prices. Who will the consumer choose?

After all, Tele2:

  • has a wide network of cellular communication stores, where you can easily purchase SIM cards
  • There is a very active drain on the advertising budget in order to attract young people (with modern marketing, etc.)
  • You can get a SIM card even at the metro or on a busy street

What is RT doing at this time with such wonderful tariffs:

  • A SIM card can only be bought at an office serving individuals, and there are not so many of them, and they are located in impassable places
  • It is possible to place an order online on the official website with delivery arrangements
  • You can become a subscriber only if you already use some service, for example, a home telephone or the Internet
  • no advertising of the product as such

Why does Rt put a spoke in his own wheels? After all, you can accumulate expenses and direct part of it to advertising, hire good specialists to create competent fashion videos, sell SIM cards to everyone, and not just to existing subscribers. This product has all the makings, but it is not presented correctly.

Pros and cons of Super Simka tariffs: what to choose?

Pros:

  • Almost all packages include free communication within the Rostelecom network, and this includes not only mobile phones, but also a huge number of landline phones;
  • Transfer of remaining minutes, SMS and traffic to the next month;
  • Unlimited in social networks and instant messengers without additional payments;
  • Exchange minutes for Internet traffic (a reverse exchange would also be nice);
  • Inexpensive additional packages of minutes and messages;
  • Free inbox throughout Russia. For those who travel a lot around the country, this is a super option.

Minuses:

  • Automatic connection of the “500 MB+” or “Internet from phone” options depending on the tariff. I believe that the subscriber himself has the right to decide whether he will connect any options or not. By the way, there are options that are much cheaper and more convenient , spend 5 minutes, choose what you need and save;
  • Relatively small coverage of the Tele2 network, on which Rostelecom operates, compared to MTS, MegaFon and Beeline.

Rates

Due to various characteristics: demand, preferences, budget, etc. For the population, the company offers a range of different tariffs and options for mobile communications. Based directly on their needs and rhythm of life, everyone sees differently which tariff suits them best. Next, we will look at the standard set from the Rostelecom family of tariffs for telephone communications.

Rostelecom mobile tariffs, list:

  • Super SIM S
  • Super SIM M
  • Super SIM L
  • Super SIM XL
  • Super SIM XXL
  • Super SIM Free
  • Just the Internet
  • Base

These are the simple but easy-to-remember tariffs for mobile communications that Rostelecom has developed and offers to cellular users throughout Russia.

"Super SIM XL"

The subscription fee for the SuperSimka XL tariff is 799 rubles per month.

For this money, subscribers are offered the following:

  • Unlimited calls to Rostelecom in the Russian Federation;
  • 1500 minutes for calls to all numbers in the country;
  • Possibility of exchanging quota minutes for additional traffic;
  • Message package in home region: 50 SMS;
  • 30 Gb Internet traffic;
  • Free use of social media networks and popular instant messengers.

Services in excess of the provided packages are charged on the terms of the lowest offer “Super SIM Free”.

Roaming

Roaming is a service provided outside your operator’s network area, which makes it possible to make, receive calls and use the mobile Internet. Since this happens outside the home network, the pricing is based on other calculations. The fact is that communication services are provided in the coverage area of ​​another operator, on the terms and agreement with your company. Therefore, the cost of calls will differ from what you pay within your home network.

Previously, roaming services had to be issued manually by submitting an application to register in a guest network for a certain period. Nowadays, roaming registration occurs automatically as soon as you leave the coverage area of ​​your region and enter a foreign network. Switching to roaming occurs automatically and without your consent, and notification is sent via SMS.

Rostelecom does this too:

Roaming throughout Russia

Rostelecom subscribers can use it while moving throughout Russia, outside their region

Rostelecom is the largest telecommunications company in our country, founded back in 1993. RT has its share in all markets: home telephony, Internet, interactive television. In many regions, this is literally the only existing provider. More than 100 million subscribers, who else can boast of so many clients. The backbone Internet provider, the developer of the State Services portal, the only eliminater of the “digital divide” is all Rostelecom. The company's turnover amounted to almost 300 billion rubles for the year with a net profit of 12 billion.

And here a reasonable question arises: why such a giant has not paid any attention to mobile communications all this time. After all, Rostelecom is a corporation with state participation, and accordingly, with a good level of support, it can easily enter any market and displace the main players. So why didn't Rt do this before? It’s hard to blame them for short-sightedness, because since 2015 the company entered the Big Data market by purchasing most of the shares of Ikumen.

What is Big Data? In a word, this is the future. By 2025, the global volume of data is expected to grow exponentially. It is unlikely that this process can be stopped, especially since we have almost entered the “Era of Data”. Rostelecom understands perfectly well what is going on and wants to firmly establish itself in this topic. But still, having such far-reaching plans, why did they pass up mobile communications? It’s hard to say, but better late than never, and in 2021 the world was finally able to see SIM cards from Rostelecom.

Rostelecom: mobile tariffs in 2021

Cellular communications Rostelecom constantly pleases its customers with new tariffs and at the same time gives the opportunity to use the usual ones.

  2. “New History In Conversation” differs from the previous one in that it gives more minutes for calls, but less internet. (400 minutes and 0.5 GB)
  3. “New History Online” has the opposite (6 GB of Internet, but no unlimited minutes)

Cost of the most economical plan: 220 rubles/month Of course, the provider limited itself to more than just this tariff plan. There are three more tariff plans that may suit you.

All Rostelecom promotional tariffs offer 101 TV channels

Tariff "Online history"

The “Online History” tariff appeared in 2021, which pleased users with its price and package of offers. The offer includes unlimited communication, 50 SMS, 500 minutes. Plus the Wink service with free movie exchange, Unlimited services.

  • 100 minutes for communication with numbers of third-party operators – 100 rubles.

It is proposed to activate the above packages by sending an SMS message to the service number, or using a USSD request. The personal account expands the basic capabilities, ensuring ease of activation of functions and their variety.

In November 2021, Rostelecom announced an expansion of its range of services. The operator allows you to use mobile communications. The line of tariffs opens with the “Super Simka S” tariff. Subscribers get access to 5 GB of Internet traffic and free calls within the network.

For the provision of services, the operator charges a monthly fee daily. As an additional service, customers are given the opportunity to send SMS and calls to countries near and far abroad. Detailed information can be obtained from the operator.

"Super SIM M"

The subscription fee for the SuperSimka M tariff is 199 rubles per month.

It’s easy to calculate that it’s even cheaper than Super SIM S, but the Internet traffic quota here is smaller. On the other hand, this option is suitable for not very active cellular users, because, in addition to the internet quota, there is also a package of minutes and a message-pack.

The conditions for the quotas provided are as follows:

  • Possibility of exchanging a minute quota for additional traffic;

The conditions for charging services in excess of the proposed quotas in this package are identical to the conditions for the “Free” tariff.

Most often, it is connected by those people who, one might say, “work on the phone,” that is, they enter into contracts, conduct conversations with clients, and much more using the cellular network.

Junior tariffs Free and S (with the exception of the Internet package on the latter) outside the home region work at roaming rates. Regarding the other MLs, the description is very interesting: the source table of any of them says:

Packages are available when traveling to other regions of Russia.

However, below, in “More details about the tariff” (this also applies to the included Internet on S):

The mobile Internet package included in the tariff plan is available in Russia, with the exception of Sevastopol and the Republic of Crimea, where roaming tariffs apply. Other communication services when located outside of Moscow and the Moscow region are provided at roaming rates.

Let me clarify once again: a Rostelecom SIM card can only be obtained if you use or connect to at least one of the company’s other services - landline phone, Home Internet or Interactive TV.

Rostelecom tariff “Super Simka L”

The subscription fee for the SuperSimka L tariff is 399 rubles per month.

  • Exchange quota minutes for gigabytes of traffic;

Tariffing of other services and services above quotas is carried out according to the conditions relevant for the “Free” tariff.

Number management

In what cases would such a solution be relevant?

  • You want to combine family members' numbers and control costs.
  • You can use the “For Everyone” line in small companies whose staff consists of several people.
  1. There is a main number - the creator of the group.
  2. He selects one of the line plans to connect to.
  3. The main number sends invitations to additional ones.
  4. All subscribers in the group use a common balance and consume packages.
  5. The owner of the main number pays for the services.
  6. The personal accounts of other group members become temporarily unavailable.
  • Sending an invitation – *105*1*number#.
  • Request for the current list of numbers in the group – *105*2#.
  • Checking package balances – *100*12#.
  • To exclude a subscriber from a group – *105*0*number#.

History of entering the market

This event has a long history. Of course, RT made attempts to enter the market, mainly in the regions, but not on its own, but through mergers with various local operators. But there wasn’t much result or impact, so the company’s managers decided to concentrate on one thing - optical fiber.

At the same time, the Swedish operator Tele2 was looking for help and support, because it was impossible to get into large cities. At that time, Tele2 already had about 25 million subscribers. The main problem in the way of the Swedes was the ban on the use of the 3G standard, and for new generation smartphones this is simply necessary, since no 3G means no Internet.

And here the most interesting thing happened - two operators united. Many sources write that one company absorbed another, but this is not so. An agreement was signed to integrate assets into the authorized capital of the joint venture. Subsequently, Rt became one of the company’s shareholders (45%). This symbiosis allowed both operators to get what each had long wanted. RT became a virtual operator, freeing itself from the ruinous investment burden. T2 received a license base, and was finally able to use 3G and 4G standards, and subsequently entered such an attractive Moscow market.

How did this whole story end? The general director of RT plans to get 15% of mobile subscribers in our country. After all, such a symbiosis is not the only one on the market; it is enough to recall MGTS, which operates on the network of the MTS operator, which gives good results. However, at the end of the year, both companies, Rostelecom and Tele2, declined.

Subscriber reviews

Before connecting to the Rostelecom SuperSimka L , you should definitely read reviews from those subscribers who have already dealt with this tariff plan.

reviews of the SuperSimka L tariff , and they can be easily found on the Internet. In the comments, people describe several benefits. The main advantages are fast Internet, minimal cost and the ability to transfer the balance to the next month.

But there are also disadvantages that many users also describe. They complain that after a few months of using the tariff, balances from previous months are no longer carried over. This problem is technical in nature and can easily be resolved with a simple call to technical support. You just need to point out the problem, and the staff will quickly solve it.

In other conditions, the tariff plan has transparent conditions, there are no pitfalls or hidden fees.

How to activate

Let’s say you got your hands on a RT SIM card one way or another. What do we see in front of us? This is a neat envelope with a modern design in blue tones. It should be opened from the back. Here the entrance is fashionably sealed with round Velcro with the name of the “size” of your tariff. Cool!

Inside there is not only a piece of plastic in the form of a bank card with extruded elements inside, but also a small booklet with instructions on how to activate it, use it, a list of popular commands, etc.

To get started, you need to activate your SIM card:

  • insert the SIM card into the SIM card slot
  • In the upper right corner you will not yet see a signal strength scale

This means the SIM card from Rostelecom is activated and ready for use.

By the way, for your information, if you use the Internet a lot, but don’t talk much, you can convert minutes to gigabytes at the rate of 1 minute - 10.24 MB. To do this, dial *108*number of minutes#

.

In the Russian service provider market, the provider Rostelecom has long declared its leadership. He confirmed this by the number of connected subscribers. After all, they use the services of this operator only because they are attracted by the favorable price, quality of services and a huge coverage area. Like any other service provider, this company is interested in constantly attracting new customers

In order for more and more residents of the country to become subscribers of this particular operator, it approaches this issue responsibly. Company employees analyze the demand for certain types of services in different home regions. Then tariffs are developed with the optimal, affordable and necessary number of minutes, Megabytes and SMS messages. After this, starter packs go on sale. Not long ago, a completely new line of tariff plans “Supersimka” was created, which is suitable for any resident of Russia with an average income. The subscriber can choose the most suitable package of services from the six offered and immediately start using it. One of the tariffs in this line is the “SuperSIMKA Free” tariff from Rostelecom

.

Super SIM S

I think that most readers of my blog are aware that Rostelecom bought the large mobile communications provider Tele2 and made it its subsidiary. This was talked about a lot in the news and discussed on forums and social networks. At the same time, it was decided not to abandon the already well-known and promoted brand. And now, some time after this, Rostelecom decided to simultaneously sell virtual cellular communication services under its brand according to the model

At the same time, the operator entered the market with a whole line of tariffs under the general name SuperSimka

. Let's take a closer look at them. The current list of tariff plans can be viewed on the website rt.ru. It looks like this:

I would like to note that these are tariff plans that are quite competitive on the market, including prepaid minutes, SMS messages and Internet traffic. Although their prices and conditions differ in each region, this is unlikely to surprise anyone now: competitors also “sin” like this. The main feature is free calls within the network - both to mobile and landline numbers of the operator.

The youngest in the line is the tariff.

This is a tariff plan without a monthly fee and billed per second. The cost of 1 second is 3 kopecks. Using simple mathematical operations, we calculate the cost of a minute - 2 rubles. SMS in your region - 1 rub. To other regions - 2.5 rubles. The starting balance can be either 0 rub. or 100 rub. Unfortunately, this plan does not offer free on-net calls. And this is a minus. Internet access is expensive and Super SIM card FREE is clearly not for this. For example, in our region the cost is 8.90 rubles. per MegaByte. In our time of unlimited tariffs, this is an outright rip-off.

The second is the SuperSimka M tariff plan. It is the most affordable with prepaid minutes, messages and data.

This tariff plan can be called pseudo-unlimited, since after the subscriber uses his Gigabyte, he will still have access to the Internet, only the speed will be reduced to 64 Kbps. And yes, here all outgoing calls to Rostelecom numbers within the home region are free. Starter package: Monthly fee +1 kopeck.

The most interesting tariffs are the most expensive - SuperSimka X and SuperSimka XL. There are already up to 1500 prepaid minutes and up to 10GB of traffic. The size of the starter package is the same: Monthly fee +1 kopeck.

Now let's summarize a little:

Advantages of SuperSimka TP from Rostelecom:

Free calls within the network in your home region + Discount on your OTA home landline phone (if you still have it connected) + Participation in the RTK bonus program + Affordable prices

The disadvantages include the fact that on these plans there is a gradual debiting of funds from the subscriber’s account if no action is taken within a certain period. That is, if you do not make calls or do not use the services at all for more than 4 months in a row, then the funds from your account will begin to be quickly debited at a rate of 3 rubles. per day until it reaches 0 and the SIM card is blocked.

PS:

And finally, I want to show you one interesting fact. If you look at the current line of Tele2 tariffs in your city, you may find with interest that they are not much different from the Super-Simka family that Rostelecom MNVO offers. As an example, I will show what is offered here in the Saratov region:

As they say, find 5 differences. Although, on the other hand, why be surprised - these are two sides of the same coin and, most likely, the same specialists were involved in the development of both lines.

Payment for calls, SMS and Internet

Tariff payments are calculated per minute. The remaining minutes, SMS, Internet are automatically transferred to the new month. Leftovers are used first, as they will not be transferred again.

Payment is made monthly. Funds are withdrawn from your mobile account. If there are not enough of them, they are not written off, but access to the services is blocked. You can only receive incoming calls and messages. The number will be restored when you top up your account. Provided that there are enough funds to pay for the services.

In order to find out the balance of available funds, dial: *100 *12#.

Internet traffic is rounded up to 150 KB

to the greater side. If, when using social networks, you follow links to other resources (view images, videos from other resources) or use a browser, then 2 GB of the main traffic are consumed. This applies to voice and video calls in instant messengers.

Tariffing for consumption of services above the limit

If the package or traffic is exhausted before the start of the new month, the services that were used up are provided for an additional fee.

* After the mobile Internet is exhausted, it is possible to use the “500 MB+” option

».

That is, another 500 MB of traffic is activated. The service costs 50 rubles. Paid after activation of the package.

This technique can be used 5 times. After this, you can use the Internet only in the next billing period.

Super SIM S

The “Super SIM M” tariff was created specifically for subscribers in Moscow and the Moscow region. It has some similarities with other packages. But, of course, there are also advantages.

For your convenience, several connection options have been developed. The article will tell you about the tariff, as well as its differences from “SUPERSIMKA S”.

Payment is 199 rubles, charged monthly. Package includes:

  • Free calls within the network;
  • 200 minutes of free off-net calls in your region of residence. They are, if desired, converted to gigabytes;
  • 50 SMS to any local numbers;

  • Free access to social networks and instant messengers;
  • Calls when moving within the Russian Federation are charged at 2.00 rubles.

  2. by selecting the appropriate function on the tariff plan page of the company’s website;
  3. by contacting your nearest service office directly, or by contacting a qualified customer service representative.

The second method is the most convenient.

How does mobile internet work on the SuperSIM L tariff?

Each tariff plan has a limit on mobile Internet speed. The more expensive the tariff, the higher the speed. Super SIM L tariff has a fairly high connection speed.

The maximum speed of this tariff is 64 kilobytes per second. This speed is quite enough to quickly load websites on the Internet, and even watch videos online.

Considering that the tariff includes 15 gigabytes of Internet every month , then the user can really not deny himself anything. You can view information on the Internet almost constantly. In general, it is almost impossible to fully use such an amount of traffic.

Description of the tariff plan

The “Super Simka Free” tariff will be affordable for budget-conscious subscribers. Local calls on it are charged at 1.5 rubles/min to both mobile and landline numbers. Numbers within the network throughout the country cost the same, including for Rostelecom home phones. The cost is similar for intercity calls to any other Russian numbers. With this tariff, you don’t have to think about the cost of calls within Russia at all – there is a single price.

The cost of sending SMS within Russia using the Super Simka Free tariff is 1.5 rubles/piece. Sending a multimedia message costs 6.5 rubles per piece, but almost no one uses them today - their era has passed. SMS to any international numbers are charged at 5.5 rubles/piece.

  • “Internet from phone” – 75 MB per day for 5 rubles/day. The most economical option.
  • “A Day on the Net” – 150 MB for 15 rubles. The option is activated only when the network detects the fact of access to the Internet.
