But, nevertheless, the option provides people with the opportunity to use high-speed Internet for the optimal amount. The service includes a subscription fee, which is debited from the balance daily. Also, for a fee, clients receive 70 MB of traffic daily. This volume is quite enough for the full use of the electronic mailbox, the use of social media. networks, as well as various chats. There should still be enough traffic to watch the news. It is worth noting that there is no speed mode in the option. Accordingly, 70 MB will be used at maximum speed for certain regions. But if all traffic is exhausted, access to the Internet is suspended until the next megabytes are added. Also, if all the traffic for the day has not been used, then it will be canceled and a new one will be added. The remaining volume is not carried over and is not added to the new day.

The service operates exclusively on your home network. So, when crossing the borders of your region, a different tariff for the megabytes used will begin to apply. The service also applies when switching to a new tariff. Naturally, if this service is supported at the tariff. The option will not work in conjunction with other Internet services that are connected separately from the tariff.

additional services

Complete with Internet options, the provider provides a number of profitable and unique offers. It represents unlimited use of certain services and applications in the network space, the traffic for which is not charged. Services are clearly divided into compatibility with a specific device and equipment. Let's consider all additional services for each individual area of ​​use:

2. Use only the latest version of the browser or appropriate mobile applications.
3. Deactivate the VPN function.
4. Do not use the browser in information compression mode.

Option cost

The “Internet XS” option is provided to customers for a subscription fee, which is charged on a daily basis and amounts to 7 rubles/day. But such payment terms begin only from the second month of using the service. In the first month, customers will need to pay a subscription fee of 190 rubles. The amount will be written off one time and in full. There are no other payments for the option.

If Internet traffic runs out

If clients have used the entire amount of traffic provided, then for each subsequent megabyte the payment will not be debited. But access to the network will stop, and the speed will drop to 64 Kbps.

Additionally, you have the opportunity to use the “Extend speed 1 GB” or “Extend speed 5 GB” service. This service allows you to resume surfing speed, and you can choose from 1 GB of traffic or 5 GB of traffic for monthly use. With the onset of a new day, the accrued 70 MB will be used, and the volume provided for the service is suspended and begins to operate again when the package traffic is exhausted.

Feedback from service users

On the World Wide Web, users leave different opinions and reviews about this option, which provides an additional package of mobile traffic. We have selected some typical reviews and provide them for your review. They show how profitable and high-quality this operator option is.

Ekaterina : The Internet plays an important role in people's lives. Today it is no longer possible to live without him. You need it at work, in life and for fun. Without the Internet, I’m like without hands; I use it every day. On Megafon I selected the Internet XS . It connects to the number that I bought at the salon. 70 megabytes is enough for me for a day, and there is still some left. The service is convenient because you can check your email, chat with friends in instant messengers, and view the news. This volume is not enough to download music and movies.

Philip : This is an affordable version of the Internet option from Megafon, it includes 70 MB per day without speed limits. I think the advantage is that after the end of the package the speed decreases, but access is not blocked. The option fee suits me. This option is not suitable for a computer, since the package is small. You can use it on a tablet or phone, but when watching a video, the traffic will end quickly. This option can be called “slow unlimited”.

Sergey : I’ve been using the option for more than 6 months, I connect Wi-Fi at home, mobile traffic on the street. In the Saratov region, after the end of the package, the speed drops to almost zero, the Internet does not work. This is the main drawback of the service; the speed should not drop to zero. This option is suitable for those who have little money and who monitor traffic consumption.

Oleg : I connected the “ Internet XS ” option a year ago, it suits me. I pay the subscription fee on time, and the package provided has never suddenly ended. Enough for me to view news and email. I recommend to everyone.

Kirill : When I connected the service, I didn’t study the conditions, they seemed immediately attractive to me. I don’t like that the money for activation was immediately withdrawn, every day they write off money for the subscription fee, it would be better to charge for a month.

How to check the remaining megabytes

When using the smallest package of services from this family, you should control its consumption. This will allow you to stay online at the right time and not spend additional money. To check the remaining Internet traffic, you can use the following methods:

3. The remainder of the first half of the month can be spent in the second.

There are several ways to activate this tariff:

1. Go to a communication store and buy a new SIM card there. You can pre-order on the operator's website. Then the employees of the office closest to you will prepare the contract in advance, which will allow you to resolve all purchase formalities faster.
2. You can also invite a courier who will help you fill out documents at home and bring a SIM card. In this case, the connection will cost you 200 rubles, which will be credited immediately.
3. On the World Wide Web. This option is only suitable for Megafon subscribers. Fill out an application on the operator’s website by entering your number. The connection will be completed after confirming the operation using the code that will be sent to your phone.

True, the volume of available traffic will turn out to be insignificant, since no one will offer clients unlimited data for little money, and therefore users will have to correctly calculate the consumption of megabytes and remember that the package can quickly end.

"Internet XS" Megafon - tariff description

The main thing that people who decide to connect to the service need to take into account is the list of devices with which the tariff is compatible. It can only be used on smartphones. Connecting to the World Wide Web on tablets and modems is impossible and makes no sense, since the allocated traffic limit will not be enough to fully use such devices.

Additional services for the modem

Everything said above also applies to modems. The tariff plan is intended exclusively for mobile phones and will not be available to modem owners. They should think about connecting to a tariff with unlimited traffic, so as not to worry about quickly exhausting the limit allocated by the operator and to constantly maintain the ability to use virtual services via cloud storage.

Compatibility options

The service is not compatible with all options, so in some cases subscribers will not be able to connect. Typically, difficulties arise when including other Internet-related offers. Therefore, in order not to encounter difficulties, the mobile operator advises visiting your personal account and checking the availability of XS there. An alternative way to obtain the required information is to call the contact center.

If there is no traffic

When the allocated traffic limit is exhausted, auto-renewal is automatically enabled. It contains 115 MB and costs 5.5 rubles. When the additional package is exhausted, subscribers are required to renew access to the network independently.

It is important to emphasize that the additional package expires at the end of the current day. The remaining megabytes are not carried over to the next reporting period and are simply burned out.

• use the mobile application;

For rare access to the network, a few gigabytes or even hundreds of megabytes per month will be enough for you. Based on this, you should choose the most favorable tariff for yourself.
