They analyzed all the advantages and disadvantages of each Ukrainian operator.
10 Oct mobile operator Kyivstar presented the Ukrainians a new unlimited calling, insisting that the first of the big three has released a package with really unlimited Internet.A month before his version of unlimited 3G Internet Vodafone boasted. Lifecell while competitors have not kept pace, offering its customers only a limited volume packages of Internet traffic.
The experts analyzed the pros and cons of each offer to find the best solution.
Only two of the three largest mobile operators offer prepaid subscribers called “unlimited Internet”. Third — Lifecell until such tariff plans are not announced. Although, given the originated in the market trend, we can expect that in the near future and it will create unlimited dressed in a wrap rate.
However, in fairness, and this statement, we will include in the comparison, based on the “rich” according to the stuffing plan.
So the comparison was valid, we calculated the average expenses of the subscriber for each operator, taking into account all terms and conditions “fine print.” Based took two conditional subscribers. The first (modest) will use 5 GB of Internet traffic per month, to talk within the network with 300 minutes, 300 minutes to speak with subscribers of other networks and 100 minutes to spend on calls on city phones. In addition, send month for 100 SMS.
The second (active) will use the Internet to the fullest and pump out per month as much as 50 GB of bandwidth (this is possible, if you use the mobile Internet as a home, to download movies and music). Speak 500 minutes with “their” and the same with false numbers. 200 minutes chatted with the “city” and send 200 SMS.
Kyivstar
According to Kyivstar, the package with unlimited Internet called “Max unlimited”. Over 155 UAH/month, the operator is ready to give a really honest online, without any restrictions on the volume and speed of traffic. Even downloading files from torrent trackers the operator promises is condescending. In terms of the tariff there are no pitfalls in the form of speed limits (of shape), or the requirements of “fair use”.
However, the disadvantages of the package are hidden behind other services. Perhaps the majority of subscribers are enough 300 minutes for calls to other networks. But what about voice communication to landline numbers? Even in rich unlimited package Kyivstar there are no free minutes for such compounds. Meanwhile, for every minute we have spent in excess of 155 UAH monthly fee to give the operator of 1,5 UAH.
Modest subscriber will spend in castrolcom package over and above the subscription fee is 75 UAH. They will go to pay for calls to landline numbers.
Active will have to pay 420 USD. This will include calls to the city and prelimianry 200 minutes of voice communications with subscribers of other networks.
Vodafone
Vodafone offers its 3G Unlim package Plus only 75 UAH/month. In the basic services include unlimited Internet and calls within network, 100 minutes for calls to other operators ‘ subscribers, including landline, and SMS at 20 cents apiece.
However, in the version Vodafone unlimited Internet not unlimited. Limitations the operator nicely hid behind the document “Policy of fair use unlimited Internet”. Thus, the operator recognizes that at maximum speed the “unlimited Internet” is only available within 3 GB per day. All excess baggage will be limited in speed of 0.8 Mbps. the Operator closes tightly the ability to download from torrent networks and sets the speed limit for streaming services (Youtube etc.) to a level of 1.2 Mbps.
In conclusion, the operator reserves the right to cut off the subscriber from the Internet, if one inserts a SIM card into the modem or will distribute the Internet from your phone to modem mode. In other words, the package from Vodafone can be recommended only to those subscribers who are not trying to use the mobile Internet as the main source of traffic in your home or office. It will only fit comfort in smart phone.
The humble subscriber to fork out for an additional 70 UAH. (calls to other networks and landline numbers in excess of bundled minutes, as well as payment by SMS). Active, if you agree to be honest users will pay the operator for the same service 160 UAH.
Lifecell
Closest for filling a package in Lifecell is the tariff plan of “Absolute freedom” of size L. For 200 UAH/month, the operator is ready to provide subscribers with 10 GB traffic, 750 minutes for calls to all networks, without limiting the directions. The operator restricts the use of torrent traffic, and in the case of going beyond the set limit disconnects the subscriber from the Internet.
However, it is worth noting that in a free package Lifecell believes tragicomical app Facebook and also some video services, including Youtube, but only from midnight to 8am.
Modest subscriber will completely fit in the provided package of services and not paid in addition to the license fee a single penny. But active in Lifecell to do nothing at all — the operator is not ready to serve these greedy Internet customers.
Total
All calculations of the additional costs of subscribers is made on the basis of the terms posted on the website of the operator. Conclusions everyone is free to make himself. Allow yourself only a few conclusions.
Unlimited offer from Kyivstar suitable for those subscribers who want to receive from the operator the maximum Internet traffic and a modest amount of additional services. If you use a SIM card as a universal means of communication, regularly call landlines, calculate their real costs based on their statistics such calls.
Vodafone offers a more versatile package of loyal and satisfied sverhbogatyh tariffs for voice services. In addition, at least a little, but in the database includes landline calls. Meanwhile, the draconian conditions of Internet usage make the service threat. After all, the prohibition to distribute the Internet from your smartphone to other devices in the current reality looks very strange.
Lifecell is very modest in terms of distribution of its subscribers, although not very active users of Internet and it can be quite a good solution. Although a good filling of the package will be quite expensive.
