In the early 90s of the twentieth century, mobile communications began to develop in Russia. Not so many years have passed, and a modern person can hardly imagine his life without a cell phone in his hand. It is convenient, practical and mobile. But how not to get confused, not to get lost among the variety of tariffs and operators?
Instructions
Step 1
The choice of a mobile operator must be approached very responsibly. Find out in advance how long the company you are interested in has existed, if possible, trace the history of its formation in the mobile services market. Ask for the opinion of friends about various telecom operators or read thematic forums. In short, try to find out as much as possible about the reputation of the company whose services you would like to use.
Step 2
If you often have to be outside the city or in small villages, then be sure to check which mobile networks function normally in those areas. For example, if your dacha is located several tens of kilometers from the city, and you often go there, then it will not be superfluous to clarify in advance which operators will be able to guarantee clear reception of the communication signal in this place.
Step 3
Inquire about promotional and beneficial promotions for subscribers on the part of mobile operators. If possible, find out how often these events are held. The competition in the field of mobile services is very high, companies make big concessions and offer really favorable conditions in order to get as many subscribers as possible into their ranks.
Step 4
Choosing a suitable tariff is much more difficult than deciding on an operator. If there are several dozen companies providing mobile services today, then the various tariffs and special offers of these companies number in the hundreds. First of all, decide what you are planning to use mobile communications for.
Step 5
If you are just going to periodically call up with friends and family, then choose a tariff, the main offer of which will be low prices for calls to subscribers of any cellular networks in your region.
Step 6
If you purchased a mobile phone for work and are going to call tens or even hundreds of people every day, then you should think about a tariff with unlimited calls. These tariffs usually have a flat subscription fee.
Step 7
If you are more attracted to communication via SMS and MMS-messages, then select a tariff that will offer the most favorable prices for these services.
Step 8
Perhaps you have purchased a mobile phone in order not to part with the Internet anywhere and anytime. Today mobile operators offer very favorable rates especially for those who prefer to actively use the Internet.
