The Kaluga region is located in the center of our country and is a small region. The coverage of the most popular telecom operators works here. Yota Kaluga tariffs in 2021 offer users to choose the best option for cellular communications and Internet traffic on favorable terms.
The developers of regional tariffs took care to optimally balance the quality of the services provided with the payment for using them. The cheapest rates in Yota start from 290 rubles/30 days. Let's take a closer look at Eta Kaluga's tariffs.
Tariffs for Iota phone in Kaluga
Let's start the review with the tariff for the two most common devices - phones and smartphones. At the beginning of the year, unlimited Internet was available to them, but then Iota decided to turn it off. The event caused a flurry of hatred and curses against the operator, the echoes of which can still be heard on various Internet platforms. Now subscribers are offered separate packages of traffic and minutes.
The minimum tariff available to residents of Kaluga includes 200 minutes within Russia and 1 GB of Internet. This minimum will be useful for uncommunicative subscribers who do not need a large number of services. The subscription fee for a modest set is 250 rubles/30 days. If you increase the amount of traffic to 5 GB, the subscription fee will be 280 rubles/30 days. We increase the number of minutes to 400 and receive a subscription fee of 330 rubles/30 days.
Here are the lists of available packages:
- Calls within Russia – 200, 400, 800, 2000 and 5000 minutes.
- Internet traffic – 1, 5, 10, 15 and 30 GB.
Packages are provided for 30 days, and not for a month, like other operators. The maximum subscription fee when choosing the maximum content is 2000 rubles/30 days. Subscribers also have access to intranet unlimited.
It’s worth talking about mobile Internet in more detail. Since there is no longer unlimited in Kaluga (as well as throughout Russia), subscribers have a choice of additional Internet packages - for social networks and instant messengers. The traffic here is unlimited, as is the speed - you can watch feeds endlessly, as well as communicate with friends and family.
Traffic for social networks and instant messengers is connected separately - one social network costs 20 rubles/30 days, one messenger costs 10 rubles/30 days. Available social networks are Odnoklassniki, VKontakte, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, instant messengers are Skype, Telegram, WhatsApp and Viber. In other words, Iota gives unlimited access to all popular communication services.
Communication over packages and SMS
The remaining minutes remaining to zero is not at all a reason to remain without communication. After the package is exhausted, per-minute charging is activated, amounting to 1.9 rubles per minute for any phone in the country. It is also possible to order an additional package of 100 minutes for 150 rubles - for the most talkative residents of Kaluga. Internet traffic is added in the same way - 5 GB are connected to the main tariff for 100 rubles. Otherwise, the speed drops to 64 kbit/sec.
Tariffing for SMS and MMS is carried out on a piece basis - 1.9 rubles/piece. to any number in the country. If such conditions are not the most interesting for you, enable the “Unlimited SMS” option. The subscription fee for it is 50 rubles/30 days, the number of messages is not limited - you can send them to any mobile phone in the country.
Intercity and international communications
There is no intercity service as such on Iota - the included minutes are spent on calls within Kaluga and throughout Russia (to any mobile and landline). Rates for international calls depend on the direction of calls. To clarify them, there is an online calculator on the operator’s website - indicate where you want to call, and after a moment you will receive the results.
Roaming around the country and the world
As in the case of intercity, there is no domestic roaming on Yota tariffs. Subscribers can easily move throughout the country, enjoying roaming-free space in all regions. But if you spend more than 30 days outside of Kaluga and the Kaluga region, the “Regional” tariff will be activated - its prices are slightly higher than the home tariff. The range of services also changes slightly.
International roaming on Yota has the following advantages:
- The traffic control function works here - it will prevent accidental expenses (this often happens on smartphones).
- Subscribers are provided with 30 minutes of incoming calls for 39 rubles per day - a great way to save money on calls.
- Reasonable prices for calls in popular countries.
And the best part is that Yota keeps messengers working, even if there is no money for the Internet. This will allow subscribers from Kaluga to stay in touch in the most difficult situations. The corresponding calculator on the operator’s website will help you clarify prices for international roaming.
How to decide on the optimal tariff?
Before choosing a tariff, read the useful information.
Like any operator, Yota has advantages and disadvantages that a potential subscriber should know about in advance.
Among the advantages of Yota:
- High-speed unlimited Internet.
- The ability to choose the number of unpaid minutes of cellular calls within and outside the network.
- Possibility to add the number of free SMS messages or refuse to provide them.
The main disadvantage of Yota is that the tariff plan for a smartphone can only be used through the phone. Its distribution via Wi-fi is also impossible.
As for roaming, mobile communications will not cost you any additional costs if you leave Kaluga. If you have connected to the Yota tariff in the Kaluga region, the cost of calls throughout Russia remains the same as stated in the selected tariff.
Tariff for tablets
Tablet PCs are no less popular devices than smartphones - residents of Kaluga actively use iPads and devices running Android OS. Yota has prepared a separate tariff for them. Instead of choosing speed or traffic packages, here you can choose a paid term.
Let's say you need Internet for a day - it will cost 50 rubles, without restrictions on traffic and speed. Monthly payment is possible, and with automatic renewal - the subscription fee is 400 rubles/month. Reasonable savings are ensured by paying for a year in advance - the payment amount is only 3,000 rubles.
The tariff for tablets is convenient because there is no roaming within Russia - you can stay online not only in Kaluga, but also outside the entire region.
Review of tariff plans for tablets
If we compare the tariff conditions offered by the Big Three cellular operators and the Yota provider, we can highlight a number of advantages compared to opposing companies:
- Favorable tariff plans with completely unlimited traffic;
- Possibility to independently select a suitable service package and billing period;
- You don’t need to enter any commands to switch to a new yota tariff, just use your personal account or mobile application;
- Affordable SIM card cost;
- The operator does not provide for turning off the Internet even if there are no funds in the account; the speed indicators simply drop to the minimum (64 Kbps per second).
All subscribers are offered a single valid package with the same Internet speed and unlimited traffic. The difference between the offers is only in the connection period and price:
- Unlimited day – 50 rubles. If you rarely use mobile access to the internet, do not want to enter USSD requests when connecting or visit the official website, then this Internet service package is suitable for you. Usage fees are charged automatically when you log into your browser;
- 30 days – 500 rub. Standard tariff plan with monthly subscription fee. The advantage of this offer is the possibility of automatic tariff renewal;
- 365 days (year) – 3600 rub. A great way to save money and get high-speed internet in a 4G LTE coverage area for 12 months.
A program downloaded to your device from the Play Market or App Stores will help you manage your profile, balance, and additional services (calls and SMS).
Terms of service for modems and routers
Not having a wired internet provider is sad. After all, wireless communication channels cannot yet provide stable speed and stable ping. They are characterized by a floating speed limit. But sometimes wireless access remains the only available channel of communication with the Internet. And in this area Yota is a leader, including in Kaluga.
Mobile Internet from Yota is presented in a tariff with the ability to independently adjust the speed - to change the speed mode, it is not at all necessary to call the support service or write a statement at the office. To do this, just move the slider in your personal account. In Kaluga, the following speeds are available to subscribers:
- 320 kbit/sec – low-speed channel for leisurely surfing for 250 rubles/30 days;
- 512 kbit/sec is not the highest speed for 300 rubles/30 days;
- 768 kbit/sec – economy tariff for 350 rubles/30 days;
- 1 Mbit/sec – a more or less decent channel for 400 rubles/30 days;
- 1.5 Mbit/sec – subscription fee is 450 rubles/30 days;
- 2.1 Mbit/sec – channel for comfortable surfing for 500 rubles/30 days;
- 3.1 Mbit/sec – a small increase in speed for 550 rubles/30 days;
- 4.1 Mbit/sec – the next speed mode for 600 rubles/30 days;
- 5 Mbit/sec – the optimal channel for an undemanding user for 650 rubles/30 days;
- 6.5 Mbit/sec for 700 rubles/30 days – good speed for most needs;
- 8 Mbit/sec for 750 RUR/30 days – this speed will allow you to watch streaming video with FullHD resolution;
- 10 Mbit/sec – powerful channel for 800 RUR/30 days;
- 15 Mbit/sec – high-speed unlimited for 850 RUR/30 days;
- Maximum speed – this offer is available for RUB 900/30 days.
When the balance is reset, a free channel with a speed of 128 kbit/sec is activated. You can also switch to it voluntarily. Please note that you can change the speed at your discretion at least every day. To adjust the speed mode on modems and routers, an intuitive web interface is used.
Paying for a year in advance will save money in your budget. For residents of Kaluga, Yota has provided three speed modes. A speed of 5 Mbit/sec will cost 5,400 rubles/year, 10 Mbit/sec – 6,900 rubles/year, access at maximum speed – 9,000 rubles/year. It is possible to pay for 4 or 24 hours for 50 or 150 rubles. The Test Drive program will help you test the available speed - it provides equipment for a week with the possibility of hassle-free return.

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.
Yota is a new generation mobile operator. It is suitable for those who cannot live without mobile Internet, travelers who do not want to overpay for mobile communications, and simply all people who keep up with new technologies. Yota is an excellent alternative for those who are disappointed by one of the popular telecom operators. In Kaluga, hundreds of subscribers have already chosen this operator.
