Pros and cons
beeline
Pros
- Every plan runs on a rolling monthly term, 1 month, so there is nothing to serve beyond the current month
- Unlimited data is available from RUB 700, with the bee HIT plan at that level and bee PRO on top of it
- eSIM and Wi-Fi calling are both supported, alongside hotspot sharing on the same plans
Cons
- Billing runs on prepaid only, so there is no contract billing option for readers who pay monthly by direct debit
- Europe roaming is paid, meaning travel use has to be paid separately rather than folded into the monthly fee
- The fixed home internet line needs a RUB 300 and a router bought outright or on instalments, adding a hardware cost on top of the subscription
Proximus
Pros
- No commitment: plans run on 1 month terms, so nothing runs past a single billing cycle.
- EU roaming is included in the plan, with 27 countries covered.
- 5G and eSIM are both available, and a multi line discount applies to extra lines.
Cons
- Entry at €14.99 is above the €9.30 median, and rank 215 of 258 on price from.
- The unlimited option at €34.99 ranks 134 of 173, higher than the €23.19 median.
- Billing covers rolling and prepaid rather than a contract, which rules it out for anyone relying on an instalment-style contract term.
Who each suits
beeline

- People who want a rolling billing option as well as prepaid, which yesss! lists across contract, rolling and prepaid

Who it suits
- People living in Belgium who want a network operator rather than a reseller
- Households wanting several lines under one multi line discount
- Travellers within the EU who value included roaming on a 1 month term

Questions about each
beeline
What does the cheapest Beeline plan cost?+
Tariffs start at RUB 400 on the bee SUPER START plan, which pairs a capped data allowance with a rolling monthly term. Unlimited data is a separate step up rather than being folded into that entry price, so the cheapest plan suits light use and the rest cover heavier traffic.
How much is unlimited data on Beeline?+
Unlimited data starts at RUB 700 on the bee HIT plan. The bee PRO plan sits above that level with a wider feature set on the same monthly term, so the higher tier is a price step rather than a different billing structure.
Proximus
What does the cheapest Proximus plan cost?+
The entry plan starts at €14.99 a month. That is a rolling price with no introductory discount that later expires, and no contract to serve. Across the wider market the median starting price is €9.30, so this sits above the middle.
How much is the unlimited plan?+
The unlimited option costs €34.99 a month. The market median for unlimited plans is €23.19, with an upper quartile of €32.45. There is a middle tier priced between the entry plan and the unlimited option.
