Connection and description of the l tariff from Megafon in 2021

MegaFon tariffs Moscow and Moscow region without monthly fee

Although the vast majority of tariffs of any mobile operator offer a certain package of services and a fixed subscription fee, there are also tariff plans where actions are paid upon completion. There are not many of them at all, but they exist.

Such tariffs are activated in the same way as others. That is:

• In the office.
• Call the hotline.
• In LC.

It is worth choosing such options for those who rarely make calls and do not use the Internet.

"Second-by-second"

A tariff with no subscription fee. Calls within your home region cost 3 rubles/min. If, for example, the conversation lasted 2 minutes and 30 seconds, the subscriber will pay not 9 rubles, but 7.5 rubles, since all seconds are charged.

Cost of other services within the tariff:

• Intercity on Megafon – 5.1 r/min.
• Other calls – 13 r/min.
• 1 MB of traffic – 10.1 rub.
• SMS at home – 1.95 rub.
• SMS to other regions – 4 rubles.
• MMS – 9.9 rub.

This tariff is issued only in MegaFon stores. You will not be able to make the transition on your own.

"Go to zero"

Another tariff without a monthly fee. But here it is not seconds that are charged, but minutes, as well as other services. They have the following prices:

• Conversations with MegaFon home numbers – 0.75 r/min.
• Intercity within the network - 5.1 rubles.
• Other local calls – 1 r/min.
• Other calls within Russia – 13 r/min.
• SMS at home – 3 rubles.
• SMS outside the home region - 3.9 rubles.
• MMS – 9.9 rub.

Internet at the tariff is provided only in packages of 100 megabytes for 25 rubles. The connection takes place in your personal account or in the operator’s application.

Other tariff plans in the line

Megafon, even when creating the most optimal tariff plans for its clients, never stops there. There will always be people who need more than what the majority will be satisfied with. For them, “All Inclusive” was supplemented with several current varieties. Each user has the opportunity to choose other line options from: XS (basic, described above) and S, M and L, as well as VIP.

The other four options also provide a convenient all-in-one solution with a full range of features. All of them are approximately similar to the basic TP, the differences are in the scope of services and cost.

Features of providing the option

Since the connection speed when using 200 MB is significantly reduced, and also taking into account that exceeding the provided limit per day will be charged at a different price, it is worth monitoring the remaining available traffic on the current day.

To check the remaining Internet traffic, you should send a short USSD request *558#. After this, you will receive a response message indicating the available quantity for the current day.

The developers have provided for the possibility of using Internet traffic in excess of the available daily limit. The subscription fee for every 1 MB in excess of the provided 200 MB per day will be charged at the rate of 0.5 rubles. It is also worth remembering that traffic is rounded up to 1KB every hour.

The good news was the opportunity to remain with the connected service when changing the tariff plan to another. And also the compatibility of this option with .

Corporate clients, by submitting the necessary documents to the communication salon or logging into the “Corporate Portal” of the Megafon website, can also activate this option, which provides the required amount of traffic per day.

What is the All Inclusive S tariff?

All inclusive S is a slightly expanded set of basic features, the monthly payment for which will be 390 rubles. In this TP, the number of free minutes has been increased to 400. To those already stated above, another hundred SMS are added, and traffic has also increased by 2 GB. and was already 3 GB. A minute of communication with a Megafon subscriber outside the region costs 3.00 and 2.00 with subscribers within the region, but from other providers. For 10.00 you can call all other numbers anywhere in the Russian Federation.

Other tariffs

This could be the end of the material and sum it up by talking about which tariff is better to choose. But not so long ago MegaFon launched an interesting TP for foreign tourists. Russians can safely pass by, but they should recommend it to their visiting friends.

#Hello

Tariff for tourists for 750 rubles for 14 days. After this period has expired, the SIM card is blocked. The way out of the situation is to replenish the balance.

The tariff includes the following services:

• Unlimited to MegaFon.
• 30 minutes for calls with subscribers of other operators within the country, as well as abroad.
• Unlimited traffic in instant messengers and social networks.

After the end of the package, calls within Russia will cost 4 r/min. SMS within the country – 4 rubles, to other countries – 9.9 rubles.

All-inclusive tariff, designated by the letter "M"

The “M” tariff, as one would expect, offers a larger volume of network benefits, while its cost is higher. Every month you will have to pay 590 rubles. But now you can communicate online for 600 minutes and send the same number of messages. One more GB is added. for Internet lovers.

As for the cost of other services, they are the same as in the above, TP “S”. By overpaying only 200 rubles, you get even more advanced features.

general description

The offer is also relevant for users who do not need access to the network daily and want to receive it only on demand daily to avoid overpayments.

Please note that unused traffic will not be transferred to the next day.

Let's look at how to connect the Internet to Megafon for a day.

If you have chosen the “L” tariff plan

“L” will especially appeal to those who spend more time online than in real life. This tariff plan offers as much as 8 gigabytes. The provider's generosity does not end there. You receive traffic in 3G/4G format. Messages and minutes, as in the previous package, are the same - this is 1,500 of both in the home Megafon. In order to join this tariff plan, you need to pay a monthly subscription fee of 1,290 rubles. However, other services cost within the range described above. TP “L” is suitable for business people. The only more profitable tariff plan is the one with the privileged name “VIP”.

Personal opinion

Obviously, these are youth tariffs, because it is young people who most often need tariffs with unlimited mobile Internet and low subscription fees, which are achieved by minimizing packages of minutes and SMS. Not everyone really needs packages, because you can call through instant messengers and social networks. And on the “Unlimited Plus” tariff, which is quite a bit more expensive than the regular “Unlimited”, there are small packages “just in case”.

I believe there are two reasons for launching this promotion:

1. Megafon wants to significantly increase sales of SIM cards and make a very good report for investors and the board of directors.
2. Megafon wants to increase its representation in some regions of Russia.

I assess the launch of such tariffs positively. It's good to have a choice, and this choice is not bad.

I would also like to add that SIM cards with these tariffs can be used, for example, in tablets. And such a scenario may be of interest to a significant number of subscribers, especially for the “Unlimited” tariff without packages of minutes and SMS.

How to connect to one of the “All Inclusive” tariff plans?

Connection to any package can be done using simple USSD commands. The main thing is to know the code corresponding to each tariff plan. For example, for the most popular basic option, this is the number 95. Dial *105*0095#, then click on the handset icon and get the basic “All inclusive” version. If you are interested in the “L” package, instead of 95 you should dial 35. To connect “M”, press 34, “S” - 33. If your priority is the “VIP” category, you need to dial 40 instead of 95 in the combination.

Another connection option is to send an SMS to the number 05009 + the code of the tariff plan you need. If you have time, you can go to the operator’s salon and ask specialists to make the connection. You can also call the hotline or do everything in your personal account.

Payment is made at the beginning of the month. If you connect in the middle of the month, you will be charged a fee proportional to the number of days remaining until the end of the month. The latter once again speaks in favor of the provider, who strives not to infringe on the rights of its clients in any way. If you don’t know which of the proposed tariff plans will be optimal for you, it makes sense to start with the basic one and see if the volumes offered by the package are enough. If not, there are four more interesting options waiting in line. Choose what is the best option for you.

Tariffs for devices

People connect to MegaFon not only for calls and Internet on their smartphone. Many people use SIM cards on tablets and computers. A separate line has been created for such devices. Here are the tariffs that can be used on tablets and USB modems. Prices may vary depending on region. Existing clients can be connected in any convenient way:

• Through the office.
• By calling support.
• In your personal account.

If you need to connect a tariff with a 3G or 4G modem, it is recommended to contact the company’s office directly.

“Your unlimited for 6 months”

The cost of switching to the tariff is 100 rubles. The subscription fee is 4,200 rubles for 6 months of use. Additionally, the client is provided with a modem that can be used almost anywhere in Russia. The connection speed depends on the coverage area.

The USB modem works using a SIM card. That is, when you install the chip in your phone, you can make calls (5 r/min) and send SMS (3 rubles).

“Your unlimited for 12 months”

Unlimited Internet via USB modem throughout almost the entire territory of Russia. Each call from a SIM card via phone will cost 3 rubles throughout the country, and a message will cost 5 rubles. The cost of switching to tariffication is 100 rubles, payment for a year of using services is 6900 rubles. This is significantly cheaper than the 6 month offer.

"MegaFon-Online"

The tariff can be used on any device, be it a USB modem or a tablet. There is no subscription fee. The client pays only for the amount of traffic consumed. Each megabyte is priced at 2.5 rubles. It is also necessary to pay for a repeated change of TP, if such an action occurs (150 rubles).

"Smart Things"

The operator positions this option as a “tariff for smart devices.” It can be used on a smartphone, tablet or modem. The subscriber connects “Smart Things” for a week, a year or forever.

Subscription fee:

• 20 rubles/week.
• 750 RUR/year.
• 7500/indefinitely.

In addition to the Internet, the tariff includes:

• 10 min/week
• 20 SMS/week

After the package is exhausted, all calls will cost 5 rubles per minute, and SMS – 3 rubles. The tariff will be very profitable for people who only need periodic access to the Internet. In other cases, it is better to bypass the option.

Smart Things has one significant limitation. After a subscriber has spent 60 megabytes of traffic in a week, the speed will be artificially limited to 64 Kbps.

Customer Reviews

Yuri : “My daughter is a music lover and also cannot live without the Internet. I was looking for a suitable tariff for her and decided to give her a SIM card “Turn on! Listen". In addition to communication, the network also provides good traffic, so my daughter was satisfied.”

Vasilisa : “It’s convenient to have unlimited calls and unlimited access to certain frequently visited sites. Megafon surprised me with the provision of a new “Turn on and Listen” tariff, which fully opens up access to Viber and other applications, and there are also free calls in your region.”

Anna : “Turn on, listen, I chose it for one reason - a lot of Internet. You can use Viber, Megafon TV, and music. Within the network, communication remains zero, and calling other operators is not that expensive.”

International calls

Tariffs for international calls for subscribers served on All Inclusive plans are the same. The main criterion for how much a minute of a call will cost is the user’s geographic location. In particular, calls to neighboring countries - the CIS, Abkhazia, Georgia and Ukraine - are charged at 20 rubles per minute. You can call European countries, as well as such popular destinations as the USA and Canada, for 30 rubles per minute. A minute of call to Australia costs 40 rubles, and to Asian countries - 50. Other countries are charged 60 rubles per minute for roaming. The most expensive for calls are the areas where only satellite communications are available. A minute of call from there will cost a Megafon subscriber 313 rubles. Let us remind you that these figures are equivalent for each of the five tariff plans discussed today.
