Editor's SummaryRostelecom's corporate tariff with almost unlimited connection and internet at a price twice lower than other operators is a great experience. However, the white list of restrictions only works for certain sites, and the quality of the mobile connection is excellent but not perfect.
IntroductionI've been reading reviews about Rostelecom, how people are suffering, especially when contracts are terminated, and I've been avoiding this company. But in April 2025, I received a beneficial offer - a corporate tariff with almost unlimited connection and internet at a price twice lower than other operators.
Speed and Quality of Internet and Mobile ConnectionI won't deny the fact that I was lucky, Rostelecom's towers are located near my residences, so the speed is consistently between 20-40 megabits (city/SNTO). Pages load quickly, any video services show in FULL HD, large files are downloaded. Ping is low, even gaming is possible without lag.
The quality of the mobile connection is also excellent. The built-in phone app, after a call from Rostelecom, next to the contacts, puts an HD icon. For example, when I call from a Tele2 SIM card, there is no such icon, and the connection quality is noticeably worse. *But the most ideal connection when calling from MTS to MTS, so there's room for improvement.
Why I'm LeavingTwo factors played a role. The cold weather is approaching, it's time to return to the city, the need for a mobile unlimited internet disappears, and the tariff is still not cheap to keep just for that. And the second reason, my urban location partially fell under the mobile internet shutdown.
The white list of restrictions only works for certain sites, and that's with some effort (not all + not always caching images).
ConclusionIn general, if Rostelecom lets me go without consequences, it will be a great experience. They didn't shut down the internet, probably even switched from a home provider - 40 megabits is enough for everyday use. And for half a year, there were no disruptions.
