The cost of archival plans will increase by 10%.
In Russia, mobile operators will increase the cost of archive tariffs in 2022. On average, mobile communications will rise in price by 10-12% this year. The operators themselves explain that this is due to the rise in the cost of equipment and the growth of mobile traffic.
Kommersant found out that in the near future the cost of archival plans at Vimpelcom will increase by 10%.
Next, Megafon raises prices, and later Tele2. Since January of this year, prices for MTS tariffs have increased: on average by 60 rubles.
Vimpelcom reported that they would change the cost of archival plans, and they would warn season tickets in advance by offering them new services. So far, the company has about 40 archive tariffs.
Before Vimpelcom, MTS also offered its subscribers a choice of services. This mobile operator explained that the construction of networks has become more expensive in the country, electricity prices and external contractors have increased.
MTS was the first to put the trend for an increase.
“As a rule, operators look at each other and do not dare to raise prices first among competitors,” experts say.
Services and legal requirements are also becoming more expensive – for example, the implementation of the “Spring law”.
Experts confirm that mobile operators will raise prices to bring them up to the current realities. Some tariffs also worked for 5-6 years. With the help of a rise in price, companies will push subscribers to change the tariff. Moreover, some tariffs will be cheaper than the old ones.
By the way, in 2021 the services of mobile operators have risen in price by 2%, in 2022 by 10-12%. Meanwhile, the most expensive services in Chechnya, Dagestan, cheap in Moscow, Magadan, Sakhalin, etc.
As Topnews wrote earlier, Russians were warned about the increase in food prices. The cost of meat, semi-finished products, sausage will increase several times – by 7-20%, experts predict.
Retail chains report that this is due to the rise in the cost of raw materials and containers.
