What is a radio point for?
Of course, the receiver can be used as an alarm clock, since it does not work at night and turns on at 6 am with the Russian anthem. But in general, besides its main purpose, the device has no other functions. However, through the receiver, government services notify citizens about emerging emergencies:
- about a man-made disaster;
- about a nuclear explosion;
- about a terrorist attack;
- about the beginning of the war and so on.
The advantage of the device is that, unlike a TV, it is always on and does not consume electricity through public networks. Therefore, in the event of a power outage, the radio will continue to broadcast.
Subscription fee for radio station
A specific tariff is set in each region. For Moscow, the standard monthly fee for a radio point is 88.5 rubles. In the Northern capital - 72.33 rubles. The minimum regional tariff is 41 rubles. In general, this is an insignificant amount, so most citizens continue to pay even if they do not use the service.
You can ask to turn off the radio point by mail
Just 50 years ago, in many homes, a connected radio was the only means of information.
Today, a stationary radio point has become a burden for most citizens, which is difficult to get rid of and for which you have to pay. However, this is not necessary.
Disabling a radio point is a simple and affordable service that allows you to save on unnecessary costs. But you should know where to turn.

In general, this is an insignificant amount, so most citizens continue to pay even if they do not use the service.
The subscription fee is charged for the connection itself. The service provider does not monitor the operating time of the radio point. The monthly fee remains fixed. Therefore, you should not consider options on how to turn off the radio in the apartment yourself. Even if you disassemble the receiver or smash it with a hammer, you will still have to pay.
The resident should contact the service and call a technician. After completing the work, the specialist will draw up documents on the basis of which the service will no longer be provided and you will not need to pay for it.
Where to contact
You should call , and Muscovites should call Russian Broadcasting Networks and Notification (RSVO). You can refuse the radio at the MFC, or via the Internet through “State Services”. Another option, not available in all regions, is a payment terminal.
Contacting the Housing Office
The documents can be submitted to the management company or homeowners' association, since with the introduction of the Housing Code in the Russian Federation, they replaced the housing office. Employees will transfer the materials to the appropriate company and arrange for a technician to be called at a time convenient for the client. To begin the procedure, you will need to draw up and submit an application on behalf of the apartment owner to turn off the radio point.
The applicant must submit documents to the company office. A document confirming ownership of the property must be presented. In order for Rostelecom to be able to turn off both the radio point and, for example, the antenna, it is important to prove that there are no debts to pay for the service and to pay the amount for the service in the current month. A state fee (60 rubles) is also paid.
A certificate of absence of debt is ordered through the MFC. After completing the procedure, the citizen receives a document confirming the termination of the service. It should be shown to the management company or HOA. After this, no fees will be charged. Using approximately the same scheme, you can refuse a television antenna in Moscow.
Through MFC
The procedure in this case is similar. However, the consumer needs to make an appointment not with the company itself, but with an appointment at the MFC. Since mediation takes a certain amount of time, the procedure will be longer in this case. There is no additional fee for turning off the radio point through the MFC. The fee will be the same 60 rubles.
To cancel a radio point, the following documents are required:
- statement;
- owner's passport;
- certificate of his ownership of housing;
- a certificate of absence of debts on the subscription fee for the radio point;
- receipt of payment of the fee.
The selected registration method does not affect what documents are needed to disable the radio point.
Price
Regardless of how you apply for a service, you will only need to pay a fee. Its amount is always 60 rubles. Additional expenses may only be associated with the need to pay off debts.
The service company has up to 30 days to turn off the radio point. During this period you will no longer have to pay for the radio. The work is carried out in the panel room at the entrance.
The master can call the tenant’s apartment only to sign the document and hand over one copy to the customer.
However, when submitting an application, you must indicate the apartment number so that the specialist can enter the entrance if an intercom is installed on its door.
Through the Internet
This method is available not only to residents of the capital. However, the algorithm is described using the example of a Moscow service. Let's look at what needs to be done to turn off the radio point through "Government Services".
You should go to the website “My Documents - Moscow State Services”.
In the list of available functions, open the “Electronic reception” option.
Next – “Proceed to send message”.
A form to fill out will appear on the screen. You should add scanned copies of documents to the “Attach files” section.
In the “sections” – click “Disable the radio point”.
After this, you will have access to the application form and payment details for paying the fee.
Now all that remains is to enter the security code and click on “Submit”.
There are no special conditions. Nobody obliges citizens to keep a radio point. Refusal is provided only in case of failure to comply with the conditions of the procedure:
- the applicant is not the owner of the apartment;
- there are debts on subscription fees;
- no fee has been paid;
- the required documents have not been submitted.
A ban for other reasons can be appealed.
Summing up
The radio point is a symbol of the Soviet past. Even in the outback, the device is gradually inferior to modern gadgets. Therefore, if the radio point is not used for its intended purpose, it makes sense to abandon it. This will save more than 1000 rubles. in year.
Every month I pay for an antenna and a radio, although I’ve been watching TV through a set-top box for a long time, and I can’t even imagine where the radio point is in my apartment. The money there is small, but it constantly drips in. A decent amount accumulates in a year.
I read your article about saving on housing and communal services and decided to turn it all off. Tell me how to do this?

- The contract between the telecom operator and the subscriber can be terminated at any time by agreement of the parties, if you have no debts for the services provided.
- If you are paying for a community television antenna, but do not know which organization provides the service and receives the money, find out who gets paid from your management company or HOA.
- You can also contact the Unified Settlement Center.
For example, your antenna is serviced by Rostelecom. The application can be written in free form. The application must include:
- Your full name.
- Residence address and apartment number to which the antenna is connected.
- Telephone number where you can be contacted.
- Purpose of application. Write: “Breaking contract.”
- Signature and date.
If the antenna is connected to the hostel, be sure to report this. The application can be submitted to the Rostelecom office or through your personal account on the website. They will turn off your antenna for free, but they will check to see if you have any debts during use. If there are, they will need to be repaid.
My experience. I'll tell you how I turned off the antenna. Our HOA sends general receipts, which include all services: electricity, gas, water, heating and that same antenna.
I went to the chairman of the HOA and said that I wanted to turn off the antenna because I didn’t use it. The chairman said to write a statement in free form addressed to him. I wrote an application, handed it in and showed the last paid receipt. A week later, a service company employee came to me and cut the antenna wire that went into the apartment.
The chairman of the HOA said that the payment for the antenna for this month will still be in the receipt, since it was not turned off on the first day. He promised that starting next month the antenna will be excluded from utility bills.
In 2021, I paid 25 rubles a month for an antenna that I didn’t use. You can save 300 rubles in a year. If the fee goes up—and it does periodically—the savings will be greater.
Residents of Moscow and the Moscow region, St. Petersburg and Sevastopol receive radio broadcasting services from the Federal State Unitary Enterprise “Russian Broadcasting and Warning Networks” (RSVO).
You can refuse it, but this is a paid service: 61 rubles for Muscovites, 100 rubles for residents of St. Petersburg and Sevastopol. The receipt can be obtained at the MFC, in the office and on the RSVO website, and paid at any bank or post office. Sberbank branches will not charge a commission.
Your apartment will be disconnected from radio broadcasting and will be issued a certificate confirming the termination of the monthly subscription fee for using the radio station.
In other cities and regions, radio broadcasting services are provided by local organizations. You can also find out who provides this service to you through the management company, homeowners association or the Unified Settlement Center. It will be possible to turn off the radio point using a similar scheme to RSVO, just check the price for turning off with your telecom operator.
Personal experience. I’ll tell you how our editor Elena from St. Petersburg turned off the radio station. She downloaded the application form from the RSVO website, filled it out and sent it along with the other required documents by email. The shipping address was indicated on the website of the RSVO of her region.
I have attached copies of the documents to the letter:
- Application for disabling the point.
- Receipt for payment of housing and communal services for the previous month.
- Receipt for payment of housing and communal services.
- Certificate of ownership.
Five days later, Elena received a paper letter from the RSVO stating that the application had been accepted and in a month an electrician would come to her and turn off the radio. Attached to the letter was a certificate for the management company stating that the radio point was turned off. This certificate had to be taken to the accounting department so that they would stop charging fees. From the next month there was no longer any need to pay for the radio point.
To turn off the radio in an apartment in St. Petersburg there is a fast and slow way:
- This procedure can be quickly carried out by contacting the Federal Unitary Enterprise RS SP and you should look for it at the address Rastannaya Street, building 18 B. There you need to write an application for refusal of the radio point. Then a technician will come to the specified address and turn off the radio. When contacting the above authority, you must have a passport and a document with you, which confirms the citizen’s ownership of the apartment. Without these documents, the service will be denied.
- Slow shutdown option. First of all, you need to make a copy of your passport and the latest document on payment of utilities. After this, you need to write a statement in a free style. It is necessary to write in it the reason for turning off the radio point. In addition, you should indicate the following information: the address of your own place of residence and contact information by which you can always contact the applicant. Then you need to send the documents by fax to the number (812) 240 44 55. After a short time, specialists will contact the person to arrange a visit of the master. After his visit, the technician will give the applicant a receipt to pay for disconnecting the radio point from the apartment. The cost of such a service in St. Petersburg is 100 rubles. After paying the receipt, the technician will come a second time and turn off the wired radio. He will draw up a certificate about disconnecting the service and send it to the accounting department of the management company that services the house.
Official refusal of radio
The subscription fee is charged for the connection itself. The service provider does not monitor the operating time of the radio point. The monthly fee remains fixed. Therefore, you should not consider options on how to turn off the radio in the apartment yourself. Even if you disassemble the receiver or smash it with a hammer, you will still have to pay.
The resident should contact the service and call a technician. After completing the work, the specialist will draw up documents on the basis of which the service will no longer be provided and you will not need to pay for it.
Disable the radio station through State Services: is it possible to refuse the service?
If you acted according to the instructions described above, the MFC is required to accept your application; a refusal may occur for the following reasons:
- the applicant is not the owner of the apartment, in other words, the tenant or cohabitants will be refused;
- did not provide a document confirming their identity and ownership of the living space;
- the state fee has not been paid or the receipt is missing.
If additional nuances arise, you can always use the online consultant on our website or call the hotline.
When renovating your apartment, you can remove the radio yourself, but this will not save you from paying for the service. There is a connection to a specific apartment and the subscriber’s personal account receives charges for using the radio. Therefore, it is imperative to resolve the issue through the authorities. Only after contacting the apartment address will an electrician come out and remove the equipment that you are not using. At the same time, he will document this fact, and the monthly fee will no longer be charged.
In Moscow, the shutdown service will cost 61 rubles, which is less than one monthly fee for using a radio point in an apartment. Today it amounts to 106.8 rubles for Muscovites, and over the course of a year it amounts to more than a thousand rubles. Considering that the radio is not used, this is an unjustified expense. It is better to direct them to other purposes.
If people are planning to do renovations in their apartment, then they can remove the radio station themselves. But this will not save citizens from paying for this service.
Since there is a connection to a specific apartment, the charge for using the radio goes to the subscriber’s personal account. Therefore, the question of how to refuse a radio point in an apartment must be resolved through the appropriate authorities.
Only after such a request, an electrician will go to the specified address and remove the equipment that the person no longer uses. After disconnection, the specialist will document everything and the payment for the radio point will no longer be received or charged.
Regarding how much it costs to turn off a radio point, in Moscow this service will cost 60 rubles. This is even less than the monthly fee for using a radio point in the house, which in 2019 is 89 rubles; for a year this is more than 1000 rubles.
Therefore, if people do not use radio, such expenses are completely unjustified; they can be used for other purposes.
Radiotochka is an ordinary wired radio, its main function is not broadcasting radio programs, but alerting city residents about emergency situations. A wired radio is independent of major electrical networks and can operate without electricity.
In the modern world, with the development of technology, some services without which people once could not imagine their lives are becoming irrelevant. Therefore, there are not very many of those who are still true to their stereotypes. Today it is more common to learn news from broadcasts or the Internet.
Most people are interested in the question of how to turn off the radio in an apartment in order to get rid of unnecessary expenses.

Disabling a radio point online: basic rules, cost of performing the service
Payment for the provision of a radio point regularly comes with all other utility bills. If apartment residents do not use this service, they can refuse it. To do this, it is not at all necessary to go to the organization that provides the service. You can order the dismantling of the radio point remotely through the State Services online portal.
What is a radio point for?
Free legal consultation
At first glance, it may seem that the main and only function of such radio points is the ability to listen to the radio in the apartments of apartment buildings. But this is a little different.
The radio point is an information source that, in case of danger, must transmit an alarm throughout the city. This occurs when a state of emergency occurs within one city or throughout the country.
That is, with the help of radio points, citizens are notified about events that pose a danger to citizens’ lives:
- Threat of terrorist interventions.
- Man-made disasters (especially those that cannot be seen).
- The onset of martial law.
- Natural disasters (floods, fires, tsunamis, tornadoes, earthquakes).
If an incident occurs, only a radio point will be able to notify the general public about the danger.
Advantages of radio points
Free legal consultation
A radio point that provides wireless radio to apartments has a number of advantages:
- Uninterrupted operation without the need for power supply, this factor is due to the autonomous connection.
- Receiving a reliable warning signal quickly, this can be important in an emergency situation.
- Lack of world analogues in terms of quality of information transmission.
Important! Many people switch to other sources of information. Radio stations have almost been abandoned; this became noticeable with the advent of the Internet and its popularization.
Nobody needs extra payments. The payment for the radio point service in the capital is 89 rubles per month, and it grows every year. For a year the amount is about a thousand rubles. Because of this, this service is being refused.
Disabling the radio point
Connecting and disabling additional services is the personal choice of each citizen. You can refuse to provide a radio point in the following ways:
- You need to come to a company that provides broadcasting and warning services to the population in your city. To cancel a service, you need to fill out an application of the established form, but before that you will still have to pay off the debt for this service (if any). You will also have to pay to disconnect the service; the receipt for payment for the disconnection service must be attached to the application itself. The documents are submitted for registration, and after a short amount of time the radio is turned off.
- The same can be done by visiting the MFC at your place of residence.
- You can refuse to provide a radio point using the State Services portal. This method is convenient in all respects: everything is done quickly and remotely.
Using the online portal of State Services
The portal allows you to disable the radio point. In order to do this, you need to follow a few simple steps:

Terms and price
You will need to pay 60 rubles for the shutdown procedure. Payment is made once. If you order a disconnection through the State Services service, you do not need to pay this state fee.
Disconnection from the radio socket occurs on the day of registration of the application. There are no specific deadlines for performing this service yet. The shutdown is carried out by an electrician, as this will require mechanical intervention. But disconnection can occur on any day within 1 month from the date of registration of the application.
Important! You can order the switch-off of the radio point through the State Services website without leaving your home. It's convenient and profitable. In this case, you will not even need to pay state duty.
Shutdown refusal
While it is easy to cancel a service, in some cases difficulties arise. Service deactivation may be refused for the following reasons:
- If a citizen who is not the owner of the residential premises tries to arrange the disconnection of the radio point.
- If documents, especially the applicant’s passport, are not uploaded to State Services.
- If there is no payment of state duty for the registration procedure.
- If there is a debt on this radio point. Even if a citizen did not use the radio point, but it was not turned off, the subscription fee for it continued to accumulate. Thus, the radio station will not be able to be turned off until the debt is repaid in full. If the point is not used, it is better to turn it off, since the debt will only accumulate.
Disconnection via MFC
If you cannot disable the service through the State Services online portal, you can do this through the MFC at your place of residence. To do this, you need to make an appointment by taking a coupon.
When the specified day approaches, you need to come to the appointment with a payment receipt. In this case, citizens write an application for disconnection at an appointment with an MFC employee. The form is issued on site.
After completing all these steps, the employee immediately sets a day when the applicant will have to wait for the master to perform the shutdown service.
You need to have your personal passport, a certificate of ownership of the residential premises, and a receipt for payment of the state duty.
The subscription fee for the radio point is charged monthly; it can be seen in general housing and communal services receipts. If there is no need for such a service, it must be disabled so that the debt does not increase.
Through the Internet
This method is available not only to residents of the capital. However, the algorithm is described using the example of a Moscow service. Let's look at what needs to be done to turn off the radio point through "Government Services".
- You should go to the website “My Documents - Moscow State Services”.

- In the “sections” – click “Disable the radio point”.
- After this, you will have access to the application form and payment details for paying the fee.
- Now all that remains is to enter the security code and click on “Submit”.
Refusal from a radio point in St. Petersburg via the Internet is done through the regular menu of the “State Services” portal.
Is it possible to disconnect through State Services?
Just a few decades ago, the services of using a radio broadcasting point and a collective antenna were considered one of the most popular.
The morning in every Soviet apartment began with listening to an information and news block on the radio. Nowadays, there are many alternative sources of television signal. We are talking about satellite television and package television from Internet providers.
Now you can read news on the Internet or watch it on TV, and listen to music through digital radios or smartphones.
However, non-use of the service does not relieve the apartment owner from paying the monthly bill. The monthly receipt for housing and communal services contains the lines “collective antenna” and “radio broadcasting point”.
Thus, residents of the Moscow region must pay 89 rubles for using a radio point and about 200 rubles for a collective antenna. Refusing to provide unused services helps reduce the amount of rent.
So, let's figure out whether it is possible to turn off the antenna through “Government Services”. Thanks to the wide range of services provided, the reference and information portal “Gosuslugi” has gained great popularity. Solving some state and municipal issues has become much easier and faster, sometimes you don’t even need to leave your home.
You can disable the use of a collective antenna through the State Services portal. This opportunity is provided if the company charging for this service is registered in the state portal database. Otherwise, the apartment owner will have to contact one of the Rostelecom branches.
You must have with you an identification document, the original and a copy of the document confirming ownership, and a receipt for payment of the state duty. A certificate of ownership may be requested if the place of registration in the passport does not match the actual address where the antenna is located. At the Rostelecom branch you will need to fill out a prescribed application form.
Shutdown periods can range from several days to a month. If the application was submitted before the 20th day of the current month, then the line “Collective antenna” will disappear from the utility bill as early as the next month. After registering the application to refuse the service, a technician will come and physically cut off the television signal supply cable in the panel.
Now let's move on to such a topical topic for many as how to stop using a wired broadcasting point.
You can cancel the service of using a wired broadcasting point via the Internet. The main advantage is that there is no need to waste time, effort and energy traveling around the city, waiting in long lines and communicating with representatives of government agencies.
During the Soviet era, the radio point was an integral part of not only the interior, but also the life of every citizen of a large country. It was the only source of information, news and entertainment. Residents of Russia happily took the time to listen to the radio.
However, thanks to technological progress, a lot has changed. Today, finding fans of wired radio broadcasting is not easy. It has been replaced by television, the Internet, and satellite broadcasting.
Modern gadgets allow you to stay informed around the clock and the need to have a radio point at home completely disappears. Moreover, this is an additional line in the communal apartment, for which you have to pay, although in fact the service is not used or the residents have turned off or thrown away the receiver.
To save funds, an unnecessary service must be officially disabled, otherwise money will continue to be debited from it.
All old residential buildings in Russia are connected to the system of Russian broadcasting and warning networks, so even when the receiver is not in the apartment, money is written off. At the same time, in new buildings, the installation of a radio point is sometimes not provided for in the design.
In 2021, the chairman of the Moscow City Duma Security Commission announced her desire to raise the issue of obliging developers to install radio points in every apartment, but since then no resolutions or bills have been issued on this.
There is an objective reason why citizens may need wired radio broadcasting - this is the only way to notify about emergency situations: natural disasters, catastrophes, terrorist attacks, etc., if other methods of communication fail. That is, the main purpose of wired radio broadcasting is security.
On the RSVO website, the organization’s management posted a recommendation for restoring the radio point if it was disabled or missing initially.
Conditions of refusal
In Moscow alone, about a million residents pay for an unnecessary service. Some of them do not suspect that unnecessary stitching can be removed from the fat. It's not free, but the savings are tenfold. To turn off a radio point in Moscow through State Services you will need to pay 60 rubles, in the regions - 100 rubles. It will cost more to refuse the service for legal entities.
Also, in order to disable the radio point in St. Petersburg through State Services, you need to prepare the following documents:
- copies of the passport pages – the first one and the one with the registration stamp;
- statement;
- receipt for payment of services for the current month;
- a certificate stating that the apartment has no debts for housing and communal services.
If the registration and the address at which the tenant intends to decontaminate the radio point do not match, you will need to present a document allowing you to dispose of the property.
Then you need to deliver the prepared documents to RSVO or Rostelecom in any general way. One of them is the use of the State portal.
The first thing you need to do to turn off a radio point in St. Petersburg through State Services is to fill out an application. This does not present any difficulty. It is enough just to indicate the owner of the property everywhere.
Important! Through the “My Documents” service (www.moidokumenty.rf), refusal of the service is available only to residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg. In other localities you will need to contact the MFC in person.
Further:
- You can pay the receipt without leaving your home if you are connected to the Internet banking of any Russian bank, or in a Sberbank terminal. You will need a payer code when paying in the terminal with 60 rubles or 100 rubles bills (you can find the payer by TIN);
- scan the receipt and application; an alternative option is to photograph the documents so that you can clearly see what is written;
- open the “My Documents” website and select the “Electronic Reception” section there;
- fill in the fields that open by entering the details of the apartment owner;
- in the “Message text” column you need to indicate that you want to disable the service and again indicate the specific address;
- You must attach payment receipts and a completed application.
Then you need to click “Send” and wait for a response.

Not all residents of large cities have the opportunity to visit government agencies to resolve any issues. Therefore, using the Internet makes it possible not to waste time in line and filling out documents.
In 2021, such problems can be solved using the State Services portal -
Most modern residents of megacities do not have the opportunity to visit government organizations to resolve certain issues; they simply do not have free time for this. With the development of electronic services, it has become possible not to waste a huge amount of time standing in queues and manually filling out documents.
Modern people have the opportunity to solve various issues with the help of special sites that provide services primarily electronically. In order for a resident of the capital who is a wired radio subscriber to completely refuse such a service, you just need to go to a special website and follow these simple steps:
- Login to the Moscow government services website -
- Go to the My Documents section.
- In the presented list of options, find Electronic Reception. Here you need to study information that directly relates to citizens’ appeals. This will make it possible to understand how the registration process takes place and what should be contained in the radio refusal document.
- After composing the appropriate request, click on the interactive line to send the message.
- A special application form will be opened, where you need to sequentially fill in all the fields marked with asterisks and clearly indicate the city address.
- You can attach files to the written appeal. An application for deactivation is downloaded in advance from the FSUE RSVO resource and carefully filled out. To do this, you need to go to the services section, select the “Subscribers” and “Disable radio point” option there. This page contains all the necessary information regarding disconnecting a subscriber from the service and a link to the application itself.
- After filling out such a request, you need to find on the page a payment document with details for paying for turning off the radio. It also needs to be filled out correctly and printed.
- Payment must be made according to the details specified in the payment document. This can be done through regular online banking.
- If desired, as a supplement, you can take a certificate from the MFC stating that there is no debt on the previously used radio point, but the request will be considered without it. The main thing is that at the time of submitting the application there are no debts on the accounts.
