How to turn off the collective television antenna
A collective television antenna is a metal structure installed in any apartment building. It provides residents with a television signal. Its cost is included in utility bills. But it happens that a separate receipt also comes. In different regions of the country, the price for using and the number of channels is different. Residents of the capital, using a collective antenna, can watch about 40 channels costing from 150 to 200 rubles.
If you have a desire to abandon the collective antenna, then simply removing the cord from the TV will not be enough. By doing this, you accumulate debt, which sooner or later will have to be paid.
The rejection process is quite time consuming. Consider the order of actions to be taken:
- You need to find out which organization serves your home. This information can be obtained from the EIRTS (Unified Information and Settlement Center).
- Make sure you have no debts. If there are any, they need to be repaid.
- Go to the EIRTS and take a certificate confirming that you are not a debtor. If there is no certificate, then it is enough to provide a paid receipt for the last month. In case of payment for services via the Internet, provide an electronic check.
- Having received a certificate, you can write a statement about the refusal to use a collective antenna. To do this, go to the service organization and fill out the necessary documents.
- The last thing left to do is call your service provider and ask them to turn off TV broadcasts from your apartment.
Disconnecting the AKADO antenna
AKADO Telecom is one of the largest operators in the Moscow region, providing telecommunications services to its users. Disconnecting the AKADO antenna is quite simple.
The first thing you should always do when you refuse broadcasting services from any operator is to make sure that there is no debt. If it is not there, then feel free to call AKADO and talk about your desire to turn off the television. The organization will appoint a day on which a specialist will come to you and disconnect the apartment from the network, having completed the necessary documents to terminate the service.
How to turn off the antenna Rostelecom
Rostelecom is an all-Russian telecommunications company that provides a wide range of services from cellular communications to television.
It so happened that when using the services of this particular company, users have many problems. This is evidenced by the number of negative reviews on the Internet. Why this is happening remains a mystery. However, if you are one of those users who are dissatisfied with the quality of the services provided, refuse them.
It will not be difficult for Rostelecom to turn off television. As in the previous cases, make sure that you are not in arrears.

Go to the nearest Rostelecom office. The company has grown a lot, and it won’t be difficult to find it in the city. There, go to a specialist and write a statement of refusal of services. They will advise you in detail and help you fill out the form. After that, your application will be processed and, when it is considered, the television will be turned off.
