Mobile operators have been operating in the country since the mid-1990s. Ukraine (codes for each operator are different) is covered by mobile communications on 98% of its territory. Mobile communications solved the problems of many people, because not everyone had landlines. In addition, cell phones help to contact a person as quickly as possible.
Which mobile operators are popular?
There are several operators in Ukraine. The leaders of the mobile communications market are MTS/Vodafone and Kyivstar. Intertelecom operator (telephone code +38094) operating in CDMA format is also presented. Less popular mobile operators also operate in the country. Ukraine (codes for calls from abroad must be dialed in the international format: 0038 or +38) is an already established mobile communications market. It will be very difficult for new operators to enter it.
Mobile operators (Ukraine): codes
How to correctly dial a mobile number of a Ukrainian operator? If a person calls from abroad, the combination +38 (the international code of Ukraine) is first entered, then the operator code (three digits) and the phone number (7 digits) are indicated. In the event that the caller is not very oriented in mobileoperators of Ukraine, it is by the code that you can understand whether a call will cost a person cheaply or expensively.
So, the operator "MTS/Vodafone" currently has four codes: +38050, +38066, +38095, +38099. Some of these codes originally belonged to other, smaller telecom operators that joined MTS. Initially, mobile operators (Ukraine), whose codes are +38066, +38095 and +38099, independently offered their services to customers. We are talking about the operators "Ecotel" and "Jeans".
Kyivstar is a mobile operator (Ukraine is the only country where this company operates), which was one of the first to offer its services on the Ukrainian market. Kyivstar now also owns four codes: +38067, +38096, +38097, +38098.
Other operators
What other mobile operators are there (Ukraine)? What are their codes?
Today many people prefer Life tariffs (codes +38063, +38093) because this operator provides advantageous services (Internet). Of course, you should pay attention to those mobile operators that are not so famous, although their rates and conditions are not so bad. The Russian operator Beeline (code +38068) broke into the Ukrainian mobile space a few years ago. Potential subscribers know very little about Golden Telecom (code +38039), because this operator did not particularly advertise its services. The Peoplenet operator is more specialized in providing the Internet. Worksvia CDMA/3g technology (code +38092).
The emergence of fundamentally new mobile operators in the Ukrainian market is unlikely.
