How to connect to MTS tariffs “for your own”
There are two options: buy the code on the Internet or persuade an MTS employee to write a statement that his friend/relative passionately wants to pay the company much less money for calls and the Internet.
The second option is practically not feasible. The security service is vigilant and suppresses attempts to write such statements for money.
Moreover: employees of MTS communication stores formally work for ZAO RTK (Russian Telephone Company) and cannot help with connecting tariffs “for their own”. And many don’t even know about them.
Therefore, it is easier to buy a tariff activation code on the Internet. Where to enter it:
- USSD command *345#(call);
- Personal account on the MTS website;
- Use the “My MTS” mobile application.
Disabling tariff
It is possible to disable a tariff plan by switching to a new tariff in your personal account or upon application at a mobile phone store.
It is also possible to switch to another cellular operator, while maintaining your own number and changing the tariff. To do this, an application is written to the new company, which is already accompanying the client in leaving MGTS.
Disabling the tariff is also possible within MGTS. It is enough to write an application to switch to another tariff plan or disconnect from the communication services of this operator.

Does this method have limitations?
MTS tariffs “for our own” can only be activated once on a specific number. If you don't use your number for five months, you'll revert back to the basic rate.
If you want to change the tariff manually and then return to the freebie again, you won’t be able to do this on the same number.
Tariff plans are only for individuals ; they cannot be connected to corporate SIM cards. And, as in other “for your own” tariffs, you cannot participate in the MTS Bonus program.

Comparison with previous version
Table:
| Options | SDS 062016 | SDS 2021 | SDS 2021 [2] |
| Unlimited within the network | After the end of the package | Yes initially | Yes initially |
| Package of minutes | 600 | 500 | 500 |
| Direction | Local numbers and MTS Russia | Local numbers | Local numbers |
| SMS package | 600 | 200 | 200 |
| Direction | Local numbers | Local numbers | Local numbers |
| Internet package | 10 GB / Unlimited | 20 GB | 25 GB |
| Subscription fee | 200 rubles per month | 250 rubles per month | 300 rubles per month |
As you can see, there are both positive and negative changes. The most important thing is that the tariff has become 50 rubles per month more expensive. For some regions, for example, the Moscow region, it is 100 rubles more expensive. In addition, packages of minutes and SMS have been reduced. On the plus side, unlimited within the network works initially, and the mobile Internet package has been increased from 10 to 20 or 25 GB. But at the moment there is no normal analogue for the old SDS with unlimited Internet.
True, for a number of regions the old codes work, and they activate SDS 062016 with unlimited mobile Internet. This applies to all regions except: Ivanovo and Yaroslavl regions, Chuvashia, Magadan and Kamchatka.
The new version of the tariff is available for 54 rubles per month. What it gives: packages of minutes and SMS at the tariff are valid for numbers of other Russian operators. This is certainly great, but it will increase the subscription fee to 304 and 354 rubles per month, respectively.
Addition
. At the end of June 2021, MTS launched a new option - “Premium for its own”, which includes unlimited Internet, MTS Music, and a subscription to KION (MTS TV). This option is specifically for tariffs from the “for our own” series. You can find out more about it here.
Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Sigma from Tele2
Tele2 offers four closed tariffs. The most expensive is “Alpha”: for 555 rubles. per month you receive unlimited calls within the network, 2000 minutes to other operators throughout the country, 2000 SMS/MMS and 20 GB of traffic.
The cheapest is “Sigma”: unlimited calls on the network, 300 minutes to numbers of other operators, 300 SMS/MMS and 10 GB of traffic for 170 rubles. per month.
Conditions for joining the tariff plan
You can also get this tariff if you go to MGTS with your number. To do this, you need to leave a request for transition on the official website of the organization. Then an authorized employee will visit him at his place of residence at a time convenient for the client, draw up documentation and hand over the SIM card.
It is possible to personally visit the branch of the mobile operator. To connect, you only need to have your passport in hand. The applicant signs the contract and submits a corresponding application to port the number to the new service provider. The price of the procedure is 100 rubles.
The period for transferring your current phone number takes 8 days. This is an average depending on the workload of authorized employees. A citizen will be able to postpone the transfer for up to six months. When porting a number, there may be network failures.
How legal is it?
Generally speaking, connecting using codes is illegal . But there are hundreds of sellers on the Internet - on social networks, on free message boards, even on city forums and popular tech sites.
Of course, operators prohibit the sale of tariff activation codes. And sometimes they conduct demonstrative “raids”, identify employees who are selling rooms, and fire them.
But it is impossible to prove that the subscriber bought the code and did not receive it for free from an employee. So subscribers don’t suffer, free tariffs don’t go away.
The more dangerous thing is that you can be scammed at any moment. Payment for the code to activate the tariff is accepted by an individual via Yandex.Money, Qiwi or another electronic wallet, less often to a bank card.
It is more difficult to be held accountable for such a “kid” than to fly to Mars on a tour package.
If they offer ready-made SIM cards with a cheap (most often corporate) tariff, you need to understand that they are not issued to you , so they can stop working at any time. This happens when a person registers a company to sell SIM cards, does not collect the required number, and the corporate tariff is canceled. In this case, there will be no one to make a claim.
