Cellular communications in the Sverdlovsk region began to actively develop in the mid-1990s.
Company "Yekaterinburg Cellular Communication"working under the brand name "Bee Line", was one of the main cellular operators in the region.
In 2002, "Bee Line" began independent activities, and "Yekaterinburg Cellular Communications" was forced to create a new trade mark MOTIV.
The structure of the telecommunications group "Motiv" in addition to LLC "Yekaterinburg-2000" (cellular and Internet access) includes LLC "European-Asian Highways" (intra-zone communication), LLC "Mobifon-2000" (satellite, international and long distance communication), and CJSC Permskaya telephone company» , which owns licenses for the provision of local telephone services in the Perm region.
Also, the group's activities are the organization of IP-VPN, the provision of the Contact Center for outsourcing.
The leading direction of activity of "MOTIV" is the direction of cellular communications.
To date, the Motiv operator has almost 2.5 million subscribers.At the end of 2013, MOTIV cellular services were used by 2,354,616 subscribers in the Sverdlovsk region, 21,064 subscribers in the Kurgan region, 25,479 subscribers in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Yugra and 12,085 subscribers in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.
Now the operator has 3,189 GSM base stations and 1,867 LTE base stations installed. Motiv provides communication in the territory of 1,594 settlements, where 96% of the population of the Sverdlovsk and Kurgan regions, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug and YaNAO live. The operator's licensed territory stretches from the southern borders of Russia to the shores of the Arctic Ocean. Its area is 1.5 million km², which is comparable to the area of \u200b\u200b4 Germany or 11 Greece. High-speed mobile Internet 4G from the Motiv operator can be used by 91% of the population of the Motiv licensed territory, which is 6.5 million inhabitants.
On April 19, 2011 the company won licenses of the GSM-1800 standard in the Kurgan Region, Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Yugra and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. According to the terms of the tender, within the first three years from the date of the decision to issue a license, the operator must cover all settlements with a population of 500 or more people. MOTIV was supposed to start providing cellular services in new regions no later than May 2013. However, the operator entered the new territories ahead of schedule. So, the network was launched into commercial operation in the Kurgan region on September 1, 2012, in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug - October 22, 2012, in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District - November 1, 2012. In September - October 2014, the fourth generation network was launched in test mode 4G LTE in all regions of presence. In early November 2014, the 4G LTE network was launched into commercial operation in all 4 regions of the operator's presence.
Today "Motive" expands the boundaries.Recall that in February 2016, at the Roskomnadzor auction, the Ural operator won additional frequencies for the development of the 4G network. This new LTE resource will strengthen its position in the "old" regions - improve the quality of communication and increase the speed of mobile 4G Internet at least 2 times, as well as enter the Tyumen region market. In the future, the operator plans a gradual transition to VoLTE (Voice over LTE). This technology enables 4G voice calls and guarantees high voice quality, instant connectivity and significant battery savings.

Mobile operators
The mobile operator Motiv is currently the largest regional operator in Russia. The geography of activities includes the Sverdlovsk and Kurgan regions, Khanty-Mansi and Yamalo-Nenets autonomous districts. The head office is located in Yekaterinburg. The owner is Yekaterinburg-2000 LLC, but it is impossible to say for certain who actually controls this company.Officially, the founders are three foreign companies, one of which is registered in the United Kingdom, and the other two are in the West Indies, but it is generally accepted that the key owner is entrepreneur Vitaly Vasilyevich Kochetkov, who, again, officially owns 4% of the shares.
History
The history of Motiv is connected with one of the three companies that were the pioneers of cellular communications in the Urals Federal District.Since 1995, Uralvestkom began to work, whose network was based on NMT technology, a little later, in 1997, Uraltel entered the market, which worked in the GSM standard, and the object of our interest will be the operator Yekaterinburg Cellular Communications, which used the DAMPS standard. which has been around since 1995.
The company did not yet have its own trademark, instead it used the Beeline brand, which was announced two years earlier.
However, in 2002, VimpelCom began independent activities in the Ural Federal District, and Yekaterinburg Cellular Communications needed its own trademark.
The telecommunications group "Motiv" was created, which included, in addition to LLC "Yekaterinburg-2000", which was engaged in cellular communications and providing Internet access, three more companies:
- LLC "European-Asian Highways" (intrazonal communication).
- LLC "Mobifon-2000" (satellite, international and long distance communication).
- Perm Telephone Company CJSC (fixed telephony in the Perm Territory).
Competitors in this field are Uraltel and which came to the market at the beginning of the 2000s and operated under the Utel brand.
By 2010, the license for the frequencies used by the DAMPS network expires completely, and the network stops working, but this did not create any particular problems for Motiv. By that time, the subscriber base had reached two million people, which is quite a lot by regional standards.
In 2011, following the results of the competition, the operator became the owners of licenses for the provision of communication services in three more regions, albeit far from the most prestigious ones: the Kurgan Region, Khanty-Mansiysk and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrugs. The commercial operation of the networks began with the fledging of the schedule - already in 2012 they started working in all three regions.
Lack of licenses for 3G mobile Internet became a serious problem. During the corresponding competitions, all frequencies went to the members of the then “big three”, and the rest of the operators were “overboard”.
But a little later, it was possible to smooth out its severity a little: Motiv received a license to use frequencies for 4G, and already at the end of 2014, mobile Internet started working in all regions of the operator's presence.
In 2016, the general director of Motiv, Vyacheslav Yukhimovich, died untimely, and Alexei Gennadievich Artemasov, who had worked in the company since the early nineties, was appointed to replace him, and he heads it at the time of this writing.
In 2019, a cooperation agreement was signed between the operator and the manufacturer of telecommunications equipment, within the framework of which new technologies will be introduced to increase the speed of work in LTE networks, preparations are underway for the introduction of the fifth generation mobile Internet and test the redistribution of frequencies between 2G and 4G.
User reviews
In the "national rating" of the popular resource banki.ru, the operator takes eleventh place.
Not a very impressive result, but the company follows almost immediately after the Big Four.
Other large regional operators with their own networks, it seems, did not even make it into the top twenty, and most of the first positions in the rating are occupied by fresh MVNOs of the type that actively carry out advertising work with potential clients and have not yet acquired a “collection” of haters.
48 reviews is not too little, again, for a regional company. The average score is not particularly critical here - it is obvious that the negative will dominate.
It is not accepted in our country, and probably in the whole world, to waste time on gratitude for the services provided without appropriate motivation.
There are still a couple of positive reviews.
The first thing that attracts attention is the comparison with the "Big Four" in terms of imposing paid subscriptions, and clearly not in favor of the latter. This is especially sinful.
The coverage is also praised, at least in the Sverdlovsk region. How things are in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug or the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District is still a big question.
But even in positive reviews there is a complaint about the lack of 3G Internet and profitable roaming in Russia.
Now let's see what they say bad about Motiv Telecom.
There are many complaints about the insufficient quality of the mobile Internet.
Basically, the complaints concern the speed and stability of the connection.
There are several complaints about the company's untidiness in relation to its subscribers: writing off funds, creating debts from scratch and other "fun" that small mobile operators love so much.
Like any self-respecting provider of telecommunications services, Motiv Telecom offers its subscribers equipment at fairly reasonable prices.
However, its quality often leaves much to be desired.
And although the company itself does not have production facilities, and orders modems and routers in China, the responsibility for such situations still lies with it.
There were practically no reviews of Motiv Telecom on other Internet resources. But on the whole, the picture is more or less clear. There are too many complaints about fraud from the company to be ignored.
And with the speed of the mobile Internet, again, not everything is in order.
But in any case, the operator is one of the largest players in the telecommunications services market in the Sverdlovsk region, and, importantly, has its own network.
And its subscriber base is more than solid by the standards of the second echelon, although it does not even come close to the outsider of the "Big Four" -.
And although the company does not have any particular growth prospects, it still takes certain steps with an eye to the future, clearly hoping to snatch a piece in the next division of the pie - the distribution of licenses now for 5G Internet.
Taking into account the persistent rumors about Vitaly Kochetkov's ties with the regional leadership, one can be practically sure: no takeover of the company will take place in the near future, even if the quality of its work drops significantly.
Mobile operator Motive provides its subscribers with the opportunity not only to make standard calls or send SMS messages, but also to use additional services and functions. Some of them are free, but for most options, the operator will withdraw money from the account. Therefore, many users are forced to turn off services that they did not need.
To find out about the services provided by the company, use LISA - the subscriber's personal Internet service. The personal page contains a list of paid options used. It is easy to find out detailed information about each function or simply disable it.
To activate the service, you need:
- Go through authorization. The subscriber sends a message without text to number 1070 or contacts the consultant at 8 800 240 0000.
- After that he receives a password to enter " Personal Area"And in the" Services "table it looks at all connected functions.
The specified password can be easily replaced with any combination of numbers or letters that is convenient for the user.
How can I find the list of connected services through the mobile application?
You can find out about additional paid options using the company's mobile Internet application. It is only available for smartphones operating system Android, the current version of the application is available at the link below.
The application is convenient to use: it is easy to check the account balance on the phone, to top up it from bank card and find out about new promotions or tariffs. The subscriber independently chooses and activates the paid services that he needs. Each of them can be turned off at any convenient time.
Disconnect via SMS: quick and easy
