New tariffs for satellite Internet from Tricolor TV: who will connect the service at the dacha?

Today, in the Russian television broadcasting market, Tricolor TV is one of the clear leaders, providing subscribers with up to two hundred channels of a wide variety of directions for a very reasonable fee. In order for the broadcast to go on without interruption, you need to take care of timely payment for operator services. On the question of how to pay for Tricolor TV, the company met its customers halfway and provided many ways to deposit funds.

Where can I pay for Tricolor TV without commission?

The official Tricolor TV portal has a section describing all available payment methods. Representatives of the company are ready to promise that when using most of them, a commission fee for paying for cable television will not be charged.

However, this matter should be approached with increased attention, because some intermediary companies through which the next payment can be made retain the right to determine a certain amount of the commission. For example, this happens if a person pays for television through a terminal or online banking.

The methods by which you can pay for television are divided into two categories:

• online - quick methods that require certain skills in using a desktop computer or smartphone;
• offline – they take more time, but anyone can use them. Recommended for those who are not good with technology.

Each payment option will be described in detail below.

Is it possible to pay for Tricolor monthly?

Back in 2021, satellite operator Tricolor TV made some changes to the subscription scheme.

The essence of the adjustments is as follows: you can now increase the subscription period either immediately for a year or every month.

Almost all users can subscribe for twelve months, as was done before, and in installments. This line of tariffs applies to all people subscribed to the system, including those subscribers who are located outside of Russia, for example, in some European countries. A complete list of rules and conditions is displayed in the message from company representatives posted on the official website.

Subscribers living in Russian populated areas can not only replenish the basic package “Unified” on Tricolor TV, but also connect additional packages both monthly and immediately for a year.

Users living in the Urals, Siberia, as well as in the Far Eastern region, have access to all Tricolor TV services at a cost of one hundred rubles per month or nine hundred rubles per year.

Package "Optimum" - more details about the tariff

The Optimum package is different in that it is suitable for everyone. You can install just this package and enjoy watching it with your whole family. Others won't let you do it. For example, in the “Children’s” package you can only find what will be of interest to viewers under twelve years old, and “Adult”, on the contrary, is only allowed for people over eighteen years old, the same with other tariffs.

Optimum will give you a wide variety of TV channels, everyone will find something to watch. The price of such a service is only six hundred rubles per year.

In total, the package contains forty-five TV channels, but there is also a free “Super Optimum” package, which will make another one hundred and forty-five channels available for viewing. This is only feasible if there is special equipment that supports the MPEG-4 standard.

By connecting to the Optimum package, you also receive a package of free TV channels (all-Russian).

What kind of channels and in what quantity will Tricolor TV subscribers receive by activating the Optimum package:

• all-Russian - twelve;
• "entertainment" - nine;
• useful and broadening your horizons – six;
• shops/advertising – four;
• films and film series – four;
• music - three;
• information TV channels – three;
• regional – two;
• sports – two;
• children - one;
• enlightenment - one.

As you can see, TV viewers are provided with a large assortment.

Affordable Internet from Tricolor TV to the country or to the outback

From the very beginning of the introduction (or rather, “re-release”) of the service, it was positioned as “affordable Internet from Tricolor TV.” The operator's tariffs could actually be called acceptable for a wide range of consumers.

With the same connection speed (up to 40 Mbit/s for an incoming signal and up to 12 Mbit/s for an outgoing signal), the monthly fee started from 275 rubles. True, at this price the subscriber received only 1 GB of traffic, but there were many tariff plans, and when drawing them up, the principle of “cheaper in bulk” was taken into account. And from April to October 2017, you could connect to “Unlimited Internet” for 990 rubles per month, which differed from others at half the speed.

How much did Internet equipment from Tricolor TV cost?

It is not surprising that the relatively affordable prices interested many people - such an offer completely satisfied summer residents and residents of remote areas. There was only one question left: “How much does a dish for connecting the Internet from Tricolor TV cost?”, since the equipment for receiving satellite television was not suitable for accessing the World Wide Web.

The initial cost of the kit - almost 35 thousand rubles - made us think about the feasibility of such a connection. A little later, the price tag was reduced to 30 thousand, but it still scared away those who wanted to use access to the World Wide Web at their dacha during their summer vacation.

Internet tariffs from Tricolor TV today

And in February 2021, the operator decided to dramatically change its pricing policy. Instead of 9 tariffs with limited traffic volumes, two unlimited ones were introduced. The first (costing 2,990 rubles per month) has speed limits for forward and reverse channels of up to 20 and up to 5 Mbit/s, respectively, the second (with a monthly payment of 4,990 rubles) – up to 40 and up to 10 Mbit/s.

Important: under the description of the service it is stated directly that the actual flow speed depends on the weather and the workload of the satellite and may differ from the declared one (naturally, to a lesser extent).

The network with tariffs available for connection is posted on the operator’s official website, on the service page. You can no longer find budget price tags here, and considering how much Tricolor TV Internet equipment costs, such an offer can no longer be called affordable. The old tariffs will obviously remain in effect for some time. There is no data on when the operator will stop renewing them.

Nuances of new tariffs

In the last column opposite both tariffs there is a direct indication that there are no restrictions on traffic volume. Is it really?

After the first table, there is another one on the site. It shows that with the “Internet Unlimited 20” tariff, subscribers are deprived of the opportunity to download large files and watch videos and television programs in Ultra HD quality.

Below are the conditions for applying tariffs. It turns out that there is still a certain limit: for the first tariff – 25 GB, for the second – 50 GB. After using this volume, subscribers will still have access to the worldwide network, but the speed will be “dynamically limited step by step” (quote from the website).

Cost of equipment for connection

In order to activate the service, you do not have to be a subscriber of a satellite operator. All the same, as before, it will not be possible to connect the Internet through the Tricolor TV dish. You need another antenna (larger diameter) and to it - a network transceiver and a satellite router.

For those who are not afraid of the new tariffs, there is good news. Now you can purchase special equipment at a reduced price - 14,990 rubles. This kit includes:

• satellite antenna with reflector, remote rod and set of fastenings;
• Ka-band transceiver;
• satellite router;
• Ethernet cable and grounding cable, fasteners, connectors, installation disk and operating instructions.

On the product page in its online store, the operator specifies that purchase is possible by connecting to one of two new “unlimited” tariffs. There is also a warning that the number of sets at the “preferential” price is limited. Whether to consider such an offer as an affordable service for the dacha is up to the dacha owners and residents of remote villages to decide.

Cost and payment procedure for basic packages

Basic package offers can be activated for a year, but “Extra” – for a year or six months. The cost of services in 2021 is as follows:

“Multiroom” is a service that can be connected immediately for a year and makes it possible to display channels of additional tariffs on the screen of 2 TVs. It is included in the “Unified Multi”, but users of the “Unified Multi Light” can only watch the channels of the main package on two TVs; to display additionally purchased TV channels, you must purchase “Multiroom” separately. Cost – 500 rub. in year.

Only the “Extra” tariff can be activated for 6 months. It will be more expensive than a year, but under certain circumstances it is more convenient.

Cost and payment procedure for additional packages

Additional services have different payment procedures. Some of them require monthly payments only, while others allow you to pay for the entire year.

Monthly payment for Tricolor TV is less profitable than annual payment. Thus, the Children's channel will cost twice as much if you pay for it every month for a year, instead of paying for the year at once. However, the monthly plan is convenient if the user wishes to purchase the package for a short time.

Additional information about payments

The cinema package of the Super Cinema operator system has become an order of magnitude cheaper: the annual TV subscription in terms of the price category turned out to be smaller. In the same way, company representatives introduced quarterly and monthly tariffs.

The cost of the first is three hundred rubles, and the second is eight hundred and fifty. TV channels included in this movie package can be connected separately.

Last year, a promotion was launched that offers a much more suitable payment method. Almost any user can connect to a “Golden Card”, which contains a full set of TV channels, as well as auxiliary operator services.
