MegaFon tariff #No overpayments “VIP”: detailed description

What is VIP status on Megafon, what is it for?
VIP status for a Megafon client provides benefits that the majority of subscribers cannot receive. To put it in simple words, this is essentially a loyalty program, that is, a variation of it. Megafon thus retains its customers. You have to pay for VIP status, this can be understood by the name. It is necessary for subscribers who constantly travel throughout the Russian Federation or abroad. VIP status includes the following:
- You will be able to use options that are not available to others.
- You will have personalized service that includes a dedicated contact center number.
- provided under special conditions.
VIP status allows users to feel like a unique client.
Features of charging a subscription fee
- If you switch to this tariff from another MegaFon tariff, the subscription fee for the first month is charged daily, then monthly;
- If you buy a SIM card or switch from another operator, then for the first 15 days the subscription fee will be debited daily (proportionally), from the 16th day the subscription fee will be debited for the next 15 days, and only then will be debited every 30 days.
- If there is not enough money in the account by the time the money is debited, SMS and Internet access will be blocked (only instant messengers and calls within the network will work). After replenishing your account with an amount sufficient to pay the subscription fee, all services will be provided in full.
VIP client privileges
The main advantage of VIP status is that the subscriber receives priority service from contact center specialists. You just need to dial 0077 and the operator will assist you. To contact a specialist in roaming, you need to dial this phone number. This privilege is very useful, because the company does not have many operators and often you have to wait in line for a long time to contact them. You can also send an email to
You can make and receive calls, send SMS messages for free to the numbers of any telecom operator in the Russian Federation. The option is free to connect, and the subscription fee is 600 rubles per month. This function does not work in Crimea and the city of Sevastopol. If you decide to use it, you can borrow 2,000 rubles from the operator. You need to pay off your debt not in 3 days, but within a week. The option is activated by dialing a simple combination on the phone *106# and the call key.
You also have access to the “VIP package of long-distance calls”. You can make calls while roaming and send SMS with a 50% discount.

If you use the “VIP package of long-distance calls”, then in your home region you will receive 1000 minutes for calls to both mobile and landline phones in the Russian Federation. Connection is free, and the monthly fee is 600 rubles.

What services are provided and monthly cost
In addition to the basic options (SOS package, subscription protection and free Megafon TV), the monthly fee includes: unlimited Internet access, packages of minutes and messages, as well as accumulation of free roaming days. How much of what exactly - see in the table.
Filling tariff plans “No overpayments. VIP" and "Premium":
| “No overpayments. VIP" | “No overpayments. Premium" | |
| Subscription fee | 1800 ₽ | 3300 ₽ |
| Internet | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| minutes | 2500 | 5000 |
| SMS | 300 | 300 |
| Free roaming | 1 day for each month | 2 days per month |
It is clearly visible from the table that the differences between “Premium” and “VIP” are truly minimal. In essence, it all comes down to the fact that on “No overpayments. Premium" doubles the minutes and days of roaming. The cost of “Premium” is also almost 2 times more expensive than “VIP”.
Let's go through each parameter in more detail and talk about the nuances.
Mobile Internet
Both packages include complete unlimited access to any web resources. There is only one limitation: you cannot download torrents. But you can distribute traffic via Wi-Fi. Moreover, it is free and for an unlimited number of devices.
If the balance is zero, the messengers will still work. Traffic for WhatsApp, Viber, Snapchat and other applications is never limited. But this is already thanks to the basic service, popularly called the “SOS package”.
Minutes and messages
Minutes from the package are spent on any types of calls, including within the network. When they run out, intranet unlimited and a package with 50 additional minutes are activated for all other outgoing ones. The cost of the additional package is 50 rubles.
Messages included in the SMS package can be sent throughout Russia. Only text messages to short numbers are not included. They are paid additionally at the rates of content providers.
The cost of minutes and SMS over packages is the same on both tariffs. Rates vary depending on whether the subscriber is in the same area as you:
| In the region of residence | In another region | |
| Calls to mobiles | 2 ₽ | 2,20 ₽ |
| Calls to landlines | 3 ₽ | 5 ₽ |
| SMS | 2,20 ₽ | 3,50 ₽ |
Traditionally, the package of minutes does not include international communication services. The prices are quite high, but the cost of minutes can be significantly reduced if you connect.
Free roaming
The option that allows you to accumulate free roaming days deserves special attention. What is its essence? It’s very simple: as long as you use one of the premium tariffs of the “No Overpayments” line, you will be credited with roaming days.
The billing period is 30 days. Thus, for each full month, 1 day of roaming is credited for the “VIP” tariff and 2 days for the “Premium” tariff.
Is roaming so free? Of course, there are some restrictions, but still, with frequent trips, the service will help you save a lot. When abroad, the subscriber is given 60 minutes of outgoing and incoming calls to Russia, as well as 1 GB of Internet, free of charge. This amount of traffic is quite enough for communicating in instant messengers, checking email and searching for information on the Internet.
Accumulated days of free international roaming are spent only when you are abroad and only when you access the Internet or use a voice communication service.
Description
The All Inclusive VIP service is the ultimate. Of course, the cost for the services provided is quite high, so it is designed for a certain level of subscribers. The subscription fee according to the plan is 2,700 rubles. It is debited every month on the day the tariff is activated. For this money, subscribers are provided with the following range of services:
- Complete unlimited calls on the MegaFon network, regardless of a person’s territorial location. The main thing is that calls are made within Russia.
- 5000 minutes are provided to All Inclusive VIP users for communication with subscribers of other operators, as well as for calls to landline numbers. Time in excess of the tariff is paid according to separate conditions.
- 5000 messages that you can use throughout Russia and in your region. This amount will definitely be enough for a month. If the limit is exceeded, payment will be made for each SMS sent.
- 20 GB of traffic is provided for surfing the Internet. With such a quantity, you can even download large files. Access is possible using 3G and 4G networks.
If not all services according to the tariff are used, they do not transfer to the new month. Everything is canceled and charged again after the subscription fee is removed.
If the cost of services is too high, we recommend considering the cheaper All Inclusive XS tariff.
Yota for tablet
- From 1 to 15 GB or unlimited Internet in Russia
- Unlimited applications from 5 RUR/month
- Up to 500 min. to Russian numbers

How to get VIP Exclusive status?
Unlike the first level, you can only get VIP Exclusive status in one way. To do this, you need to actively use cellular communications, regularly replenishing your balance. At the same time, total expenses for the last reporting period (six months) must exceed 30 thousand rubles. There are no other methods to become a VIP client and activate privileged services. No tariff plan has been developed for activation. Users will not be able to buy an exclusive position.
Status Features
The last thing that owners of privileged numbers need to know about is related to the procedure for increasing Internet speed. The base speed is 1 Mbit/s, which increases by 30%. But the final results depend on a lot of factors, including:
- location of the client;
- device used to access the network;
- weather;
- holding public events, holidays (increasing load on the network).
As a result, connection parameters may be lower than the level expected by the subscriber.
Personalized service
What do you imagine when you hear the phrase “Individual service”? A special kind attitude towards yourself as a privileged subscriber and, possibly, several beautiful girls who will fulfill any of your requests and consider it a great honor. Let's take a closer look at what Megafon presents as an individual service:
- Extraordinary priority service in the Contact Center using a specially designated toll-free number
(+7 926 111-00-77 – for calls to the Contact Center from roaming). Attractive girls on the other end of the line, solving your problems - counted. - Special conditions for the provision of the “Promised Payment” service:
- the maximum established amount of the promised payment is
2,000 rubles
; - validity period -
7 days
; - short combination of numbers for activation - *
106#.
As we can see, individual conditions are not so diverse and do not differ particularly in wealth. And it’s not a fact that the girls in the Contact Center will consider solving your problem their privilege and honor. However, if you don’t want to wait in line to call the operator - which, by the way, is practically non-existent. – then VIP status is an excellent solution for you.
Features of status activation
The phone company has made activation as easy as possible, so users won't expect anything out of the ordinary. Customers just need to take a closer look at the timing of receiving privileges and discounts. It depends on the method of upgrading chosen by the subscriber:
- after reaching the required amount of expenses, you must wait until the end of the month (reporting period) and another 10 days during which activation occurs;
- those who decide to buy the provisions do not have to wait, changes occur instantly;
- using a tariff requires you to take a closer look at the connection point (in branded salons the level increases immediately, in other situations you will have to wait).
There are no other unexpected connection nuances that you need to know about.
VIP Exclusive
The increased VIP Exclusive status deserves special consideration. It gives clients the right to:
- increased average speed of Internet traffic in 4g networks;
- receiving service in branded communication shops without queuing;
- direct call to support staff without a long wait for an answer;
- special offers listed above, expanded with additional promotions and conditions;
- free delivery of a new SIM card for replacement worldwide;
- instant connection to the networks of partner cellular companies when the subscriber travels abroad.
But the main advantage is providing the client with a personally servicing manager who is able to quickly solve all emerging difficulties and explain incomprehensible nuances and details. Its services are available from 9:00 to 21:00 on weekdays.
