According to Andrey Pyatakhin, Beeline’s 2014 investments made USD 14 million, which is by USD 3 million more compared to investments in 2013.

“2014 was marked by increase in capital investments aimed at the company’s development. Owing to these investments, we launched high-speed fiber-optic Internet service based on FTTB (Fiber to the Building) technology, the digitization of regions continued and the number of mobile base stations was increased”, he noted.

“I would like to especially underline the record growth of the Net Promoter Score (NPS) in 2014 – compared to 2013, it increased by13%.

Subscriber base growth, decrease in subscriber outflow and launch of new offers testify to our right path of development and prove that subscribers feel “simple and convenient” with us. 2014 was a year of serious “trials”, which we overcame. But 2015 is full of new trends and the telecommunications sphere is no exception. Changes in prices and optimization programs accounted by price changes in other countries are possible this year”, said Andrey Pyatakhin.
