Many people don’t even notice how high the costs of mobile communications are sometimes, even though the communication is carried out within the home network. After leaving your home region, the cost of communication and other mobile services increases, and if you leave the country, the tariffs become higher. Clients are looking for ways to make communication more economical. The answer from the Russian mobile operator Tele2 is connection. This option is very profitable and will be useful for Tele2 subscribers, and you can find out more about it below.
Description
If you plan to travel to other countries, then prices for mobile communications while roaming abroad will be significantly higher. As usual, in international roaming, communication is more expensive and each country has its own cost, depending on the terms of the Tele2 contract and the operator. The worst thing about roaming is that you not only pay for outgoing calls, but also pay for any incoming call. To reduce costs by reducing the cost of incoming directions, Tele2 users can activate “Conversations without borders”.
The offer can be used on any tariff plan issued by the Tele2 operator. Although the service is provided in roaming, to use it you need to connect, and how to do this will be discussed below.
The service allows you to significantly save on communication without changing your mobile number. The advantages of the proposal include:
- All incoming calls are carried out without difficulties, there is not a single problem.
- The client does not have to buy a SIM card from the operator of the host country; all that is needed is to activate “Conversations without borders”.
- It is possible to stay in touch at an affordable cost anywhere in the world, which is very convenient during business meetings or business.
- Connection and disconnection is carried out quickly, using several methods, free of charge outside the Russian Federation or within it.
Of course, there are also some disadvantages to this proposal:
- Although the offer is universal and should work in any country, there is a small list of countries where the service will not be able to function. You can view the list in more detail on the website. For other countries the cost remains fixed.
- The option provides for per-minute billing; it turns out that if you communicate for 20 seconds, the fee for the entire minute will be debited from your account.
If the balance suddenly goes to zero, and there is no way to top up, then Tele2 customers can activate an additional service called “Promised payment”. This service will allow you to use money on credit for 10 days, after which you must pay off your debt as soon as possible, otherwise you will not be able to call at all.
Additional savings
The discount from tele2 calls without borders applies only to incoming calls. Outgoings are valued at regular cost. To avoid spending extra money on communications while on vacation, first disable call forwarding services - otherwise you will pay for them at international rates.
After returning, reconnect call forwarding and at the same time check the functioning of the associated voice mail services, “Who called”, “I’m online”. Our author’s detailed instructions will tell you how to disable the Internet on TV2.
Conditions and cost
The service is provided on a paid basis. The prescribed subscription fee is debited every day in the amount of 5 rubles. The main advantage of the service is the uniform cost of incoming calls in any country. Thus, every minute of communication on a received call costs 5 rubles.
During connection, the user does not need to pay anything. Payment is made only for actually used mobile services. Connection can only be made at the request of the SIM card owner, for any Tele2 tariff.
