"Beeline" is not only a mobile operator in Moscow and Russia. The company provides its services in many countries - Italy, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Laos, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, Armenia, Georgia, Algeria, Kyrgyzstan, Bangladesh and others.
Megafon is the most actively developing
PJSC "MegaFon" presents to its subscribers the whole range of telematic services. It works not only in Moscow, but throughout Russia, as well as in Tajikistan, South Ossetia and Abkhazia. It was Megafon that was the first in the country to provide its subscribers with high-speed Internet - first 3G, and then LTE.
This Moscow mobile operator is known for its active acquisition of shares in other companies in its market - Synterra, Euroset,Megalabs. Among its "daughters" are the notorious "Iota" and the provider NETBYNET.
"Tele2" is the most economical
In Russia, the Swedish company "Tele2" loudly declared itself back in 2003. Promising promotions also drew attention to it - high quality, excellent service, ease of operation, coupled with unprecedentedly low prices for communication. In Moscow, the mobile operator Tele2 appeared relatively recently - this was due to the fact that it smoothly integrated with the assets of Rostelecom in 2014. Before that, in 2013, the Swedish corporation "Tele2 AB" sold its Russian branch to the VTB group of companies.
Today "Tele2" provides a wide range of telecommunications services for both private clients and businesses. In addition to Moscow, the operator operates in 65 regions of Russia.
Yota is the most intriguing
Yota can certainly be considered the most mysterious Russian operator - the corporation's advertising campaign is to blame. Yota is the world leader in providing broadband Internet access, as well as the recognized "fourth operator" in Russia according to 2014 data. Today it is not only a mobile operator in Moscow, but a company operating in 81 regions of the country (modem products are currently available only in 76 regions).
Distinguish Yota from the rest of the variety of operators visible advantages:

"Teletay" is the least known connection
Teletay is another product of VimpelCom, a service provider with attractive tariff plans and high quality of services offered. Basically, his line of TPs is designed for those who want to communicate economically and a lot - in unlimited variations. The company promises an unobtrusive multi-profile service, an individual approach to each subscriber, advantageous offers for active users of the mobile Internet and those who like to chat on their smartphones. There are also special offers for businessmen and customers who frequently visit the roaming area.
Teletay's low popularity is primarily due to the fact that it operates in only two regions - Moscow and the region, as well as in St. Petersburg.
