Tariff description
Just looking at the name of the tariff, you can understand that the package does not include many additional subscriptions that constantly require payment. Thus, subscribers will not have to count for a long time and look for where the money has disappeared from their phone balance. In this regard, MegaFon tried to make tariffs as transparent and simple as possible. Thus, the price for communication services will be a fixed amount.
For many MegaFon subscribers, the absence of a subscription fee in the “Everything is simple” tariff will be pleasant news. Naturally, at the moment there is no connection fee either. Regarding the tariffication of calls, it is carried out on a per-minute basis. If necessary, you can transfer the tariff to per-second payment.

Advantages and disadvantages of the tariff
Advantages
:
- no monthly fee,
- low price for SMS by region,
- low price for communication at a special rate when replenishing the balance by 130 or 250 rubles.
Flaws
:
- To profitably use Megafon services, you must regularly top up your balance by 250 rubles. monthly,
- the cost of a minute of communication with Megafon numbers is exactly the same as with other operators within the home region,
- expensive internet for mobile.
It's hard to imagine a modern tariff plan with such conditions. Despite the low cost of international communication, everything else seems too expensive. Tariffs that were developed in 2016 offer even more profitable calls abroad, not to mention what large traffic packages can be purchased for relatively small amounts.
