Vlad, really? All of my friends and family on MTS, and friends who moved to Moscow and St Petes have MTS number just so they can call home cheaper.

Btw? Have anyone heard of “Краснодарская Сотовая Связь” operator, do they still exist?

Tim,

yeah, but all the numbers in the region that are 6 digits are still padded by “2″ :) I noticed that when I was in one of the villages for a wedding this August.

I actually wanted to contact you to see if you are in Krasnodar at the moment and wanna hang out one evening :) when I was going back to St Petes. but I ended up staying there only a night before my flight home

Erik:

It’s interesting that Sochi is still using the 4 digit code for landlines. Here in Krasnodar they dropped the final “2″ from the old 8612 code. Now the code for landlines is 861 just as Moscow is now 495.
