“We don’t block when it’s minus”

On most tariff plans there is a rule - as soon as you go into the red, access to minutes, SMS and traffic is blocked until you top up your account. On Tele2 everything is different.

If you have paid a subscription fee according to the tariff and have not spent the entire volume of services intended for the month, you can use them with a negative balance.

With the “Do not block when minus” option, the subscriber retains access to the Internet, calls, messages and all unlimited options included in the tariff plan.

Tariffing in case of untimely debiting of the subscription fee

The subscription fee is charged immediately upon activation of the tariff. Next - in a month. If there is not enough money on your balance, the cost of calls within the network is 1.95 rubles, to phones of subscribers of other operators - 9 rubles/minute.

Important! When traveling within Russia, the cost of calls within the network increases to 5.50 rubles. Billing is per minute. Calls lasting less than 3 seconds are not charged.

In some regions, the cost of calls may increase, as well as the speed of Internet traffic may decrease. You can clarify the conditions on the Tele2 website, in the “Additional information” tab.

Individual settings

If the volume of services within the tariff is not enough for you, you can always increase it using additional options:

Add 500 MB of internet for 50 rubles.
You can connect no more than five packages per month - that is, the standard amount of traffic can be increased by 2.5 GB. The command to connect is * 155 * 24 * 3 # , to disconnect - * 155 * 24 * 3 * 0 # .
Add 50 minutes for 50 rub.
You can add up to five packages per month - that is, no more than 250 minutes. The command to connect is * 155 * 24 * 1 # , to disconnect - * 155 * 24 * 1 * 0 # .
Add 100 SMS for 50 rub.
You can connect a maximum of 3 message packages per month - that is, you will receive 300 additional SMS. The command to connect is * 155 * 24 * 2 # , to disconnect - * 155 * 24 * 2 * 0 # .

An important nuance: all these packages are connected not once, but on an ongoing basis. At the beginning of a new billing period, they will be added to the standard content by default, which means the subscription fee will automatically increase.

If you need additional packages temporarily, do not forget to disable the service after adding traffic, minutes or SMS.

If you have not topped up your account by one hundred and fifty rubles, calls and messages will be charged according to a different plan, without benefits.

Now that we’ve sorted out the basic conditions and costs, let’s talk about how to connect the Tele2 “Social” tariff yourself, and whether it’s possible to do this without the intervention of company employees.

How to connect and disconnect

Previously, it was possible to activate the “Social” tariff in Tele2 communication stores, but now the connection is made only at Russian Post offices.

You cannot switch to Social with your existing Tele2 number - you can only buy a new SIM card with a preset tariff.

To buy a SIM card with the “Social” tariff, the subscriber must provide one of the following documents:

Moskvich card or Moskvich social card;
Social card of a resident of the Moscow region;
Pensioner's ID;
Certificate of pension assignment;
Disabled person's certificate;
Certificate of disability;
Identity card of a Russian military personnel.

If you want to disable the “Social” tariff, switch to any other operator’s tariff plan in your personal account, by calling the hotline 611 or in a communication salon.
You can also terminate the contract for the provision of communication services with Tele2.

Advantages and disadvantages

According to reviews, the Tele2 “Social” tariff is an incredibly profitable offer that is available to those who need it. Study the pros and cons before connecting so you are prepared for any pitfalls!

We told you how to buy a SIM card for the Tele2 tariff - if you meet the above requirements, go to the communication salon at any time! No one will refuse the opportunity to save a tidy sum, at the same time receive voluminous packages of services and always stay in touch with friends and family.

Fare restrictions

Tele2 has an important condition: one subscriber can use only one SIM card with the “Social” tariff.

If 2 or more SIMs with this tariff plan are registered for a number, on all numbers except the very first one, the tariff will be automatically replaced by “My Conversation”.

In addition, after connecting to the “Social” tariff plan, the operator can check the relevance and correctness of your social ID data.

If the information is incorrect, an SMS message will be sent to the subscriber’s number asking for the necessary documents.

If information is not provided within 3 days from the moment the message is sent, the tariff plan will automatically be changed to the “My Conversation” tariff.

How to disable the “Social” tariff

To deactivate, please contact your nearest mobile operator. You can also get advice by calling the hotline number or in your personal account on the official website.

If you have any questions, wishes or suggestions to the mobile operator Tele2, you can express them by calling the hotline number. From a smartphone, the call is made to the short number 611, and for landlines the current number is 8 495 97 97 611. Also, for users who prefer to communicate online, there is a personal account on the company’s official website. After authorization, services and special offers are available for review there, and in addition there is an online chat column with a specialist.

Advantages and disadvantages

The “Social” tariff has many advantages:

Budgeting. 150 rub. per month for Moscow and the Moscow region - this is very inexpensive.
Optimal range of services. The tariff includes a good package of Internet traffic, unlimited within the Tele2 network in the home region, a sufficient number of minutes and SMS, as well as unlimited in social networks and instant messengers.
Possibility of customization. If there are not enough minutes, traffic or SMS, you can always add more. True, the subscription fee will also increase.
“SOS package” and “We don’t block when it’s minus.” You will be able to use connected packages even with a negative balance. And even if the packages run out, you will still not be left without communication and navigation.

There are only two disadvantages.

Firstly, the remaining packages are not carried over to the next month and expire at the end of the billing period, which is not very convenient.

Secondly, it is not entirely clear why you cannot switch to “Social” with an existing SIM card and connect to the tariff in the Tele2 communication salon. Buying a new SIM card at Russian Post offices can be inconvenient.

Conclusion

What can we say about the Social tariff, taking into account all the above information?

The most important thing in tariff plans has always been and will remain the ratio of price and set of services, that is, minutes and Internet, to put it simply. Considering the cost of only 150 rubles in Moscow and 120 in other regions, including 3GB and 100 minutes for such a part of the population as pensioners, we can say with confidence that everything is very democratic and fair. The amount of Internet traffic for older people is quite sufficient for certain needs, but with 100 minutes the issue is very controversial. Of course, this is not enough for long conversations, but given the unlimited calls in your home region, this argument can be a significant help.

Not every operator can offer a tariff costing less than 200 rubles, and Tele2 has a leading position here. For pensioners, and not only others, in our country even 100 rubles matters, so we can safely recommend using the Social tariff for use and switching from a more expensive one.

“How to share gigabytes on T...

Tariff packages without mobile Internet

In certain situations, customers, when buying a company SIM card, do not want to pay for mobile Internet, for the reason that they do not use it.

This is evidenced by numerous positive reviews about the “Classic” tariff plan. However, there are also unpleasant moments. Most often, subscribers complain about automatically built-in paid services. And provided that they are not disabled first, they will be charged separately.

The cost of a minute in the “Classic” tariff plan is only 1.2 rubles .

Tariff “Internet for devices” for modems or tablets

Tariff plan “Social” from Tele 2: detailed review, advantages and pitfalls

Mobile operator Tele 2 in 2021 became one of four cellular telephony companies that introduced a special tariff plan designed for pensioners and beneficiaries. The “social” package from this cellular provider became a kind of continuation of a social program in which an experiment was carried out to popularize the use of the Internet among the elderly population.

In this article we will look at detailed information about the services provided by Tele2: tariff connection, main advantages and disadvantages, instructions for use.

How not to lose favorable terms of communication

In order not to lose favorable terms of communication, a pensioner should pay the subscription fee on time, once a month. This is not difficult to do, because at the end of each month the user receives a notification that the subscription fee will be charged tomorrow. It is enough to top up your phone balance in a timely manner, and the fee will be debited on time, and the favorable communication conditions will remain. In order not to think about the subscription fee, you can set up the auto-payment function in advance, then the phone balance will be replenished automatically the day before the pre-agreed amount is written off.

We should not forget that the terms of the tariff plan may change; what was profitable yesterday may not be so profitable tomorrow, so the Tele2 cellular operator has the right to change the terms of tariff plans at its discretion. If it seems that the operator has begun to charge more money for communications than usual, you should contact the Tele2 salon for help from a consultant or call the operator. Perhaps a previously profitable tariff plan has already lost its relevance.

Possible services and options

Today, the operator offers customers auxiliary options and services that make cellular communications convenient. Before connecting any service, we advise you to look at the offers from different angles and find out all the disadvantages and advantages.

Packages of minutes and SMS messages

If necessary, the subscriber has the opportunity to connect calls and messages.

100 SMS cost 70 rubles per month , 300 SMS messages cost 150 rubles per month .

In addition, you can buy separately:

calls to Crimea and abroad;
unlimited within the network;
the same price for calls when traveling around the country.

You need to pay from 2 to 6 rubles per day .

Additional Internet services

Separately, subscribers of the cellular operator in Lipetsk and the Lipetsk region are invited to connect to various Internet packages, which provide limits of 1-40 gigabytes per month.

The cost of services varies from 120 to 600 rubles per month .

If desired, the client has the opportunity to extend Internet access after the traffic limit provided for by the tariff package has been exhausted. Thus, you can extend the Internet by a day by adding another 100 or five hundred MB. Or connect 1 or 3 GB for a month.

The cost of renewing mobile Internet is from 12 to 200 rubles per service .

Roaming

Tele2 roaming services abroad do not require activation and are connected to operator users in Lipetsk and the Lipetsk region by default. Tariffing in roaming is per second, and the cost of one minute of conversation and Internet traffic depends on the country where you are planning a trip.

Cellular service management

certain options when zero - checking the remaining minutes and topping up your account, beacon, promised payment, help from a friend, mobile transfer.
services for relaxation - free catalog of melodies for, checking subscription.

How to choose a favorable tariff

In order to choose a favorable tariff, pensioners are advised to consider several offers. When selecting optimal communication conditions, the following parameters must be taken into account:

The amount of the monthly subscription fee (for some tariffs, by the way, it may be absent);
Conditions for connecting to the Internet, accessing the network and downloading materials;
Price per minute of communication within the network, intercity, to numbers of other mobile operators;
Availability of ready-made packages;
The presence of additional options (for example, free calls to all long-distance numbers or unlimited Internet for a fixed fee);
Rules that allow you to activate additional services for users.

To make the choice easier, you should clearly formulate your wishes for beneficial communication in advance so that you can immediately cut off inappropriate options.

Favorable rates

There are many tariff plans for pensioners. They allow you to communicate a lot and at the same time significantly save money. Almost all tariffs include the use of the Internet, only in some cases the amount of traffic included in the package is limited, and in some cases Internet access is completely unlimited.

Statistics collected by Tele2 claim that among citizens over the age of 60, that is, among those who are already retired or going on a well-deserved vacation, the following tariffs are the most popular:

My online;
My Tele2;
My conversation.

Internet is charged separately and has nothing to do with telephone communications. All tariffs discussed above are valid if the user pays the subscription fee on time. If the subscription payment is overdue, the user will be subject to general, less favorable payment terms for cellular communications.

The only tariff for pensioners that does not require a subscription fee is the classic tariff. There, payment is made only for those actions that the pensioner actually performed, that is, in fact, for the number of calls and messages. If a person actively communicates, he pays more. And vice versa, if there is little actual communication, the communication fee will also be less, which is very convenient for some users.

Disadvantages of the tariff

Of course, no tariff plan is complete without some drawbacks. For “Social” it is:

There is no possibility to connect a tariff plan to any Tele2 subscriber, and pensioners and benefit recipients can only receive one SIM card in their hands.
You cannot distribute the Internet within the “Share gigabytes” option.
Tariff prices change greatly when you connect additional Internet packages and minutes, as well as when existing ones expire.
The remaining minutes of conversation and megabytes of Internet traffic expire at the end of the month.
Along with the tariff, they can connect additional services that you will have to disable yourself.
