Sometimes we get very upset when, due to circumstances, we are unable to watch our favorite show or movie, but with the Megafon TV service this can be avoided.
With this option, the operator gave its subscribers access to a huge number of television channels, as well as a collection of all kinds of films that can be watched even while being separated from the TV for many kilometers.
Basic information about the Megafon.tv application

The service includes:

In order to answer the question of whether traffic is consumed when browsing, you need to understand how the service is designed. If you use an operator’s SIM card with a certain tariff when subscribing (we’ll talk about them later), then online viewing of movies and TV shows is possible without consuming traffic, but if you only subscribe to this option, then the conditions of the operator with which contract has been concluded .
Via mobile application
A separate mobile application has been created for the service. It can be downloaded for free on Google Play and AppStore. The program is designed for Android versions from 4.0 and iOS from 7.0. Some subscribers think that to disable the service it is enough to delete the application from the phone. But this is not so - the subscription still remains.
To refuse it, you need to do the following:
- Open the application.
- Log in.
- In the left corner of the screen, click on the menu icon.
- Select the "Packages" section.
- A list of all TV packages included in the subscription will open.
- Active connections are highlighted with a green checkmark in a circle.
- Click your option (for example, Bloggers, Ultimate package).
- On its description page, click “Disable Package”.

Refresh the listing page. Now there is no green mark next to the disabled package, but a button to connect has appeared.

Excerpt from the Terms of Service.
Also, under the terms of another promotion, newly connected users are given a grace period of 30 days, during which they can watch channels from the “Main” package completely free of charge.
Replacement for tariffs with unlimited traffic
The new line of tariffs replaced the “All inclusive” tariff line. In the latest modification of this line, the subscription fee was from 300 rubles. per month up to 2.7 thousand rubles. per month. The new line has a slightly higher subscription fee. Users of the new tariffs will receive an additional opportunity in the form of unlimited traffic to social networks and instant messengers, but most tariffs will not have a package of included SMS.
This corresponds to Megafon’s new approach to tariff setting - “more for more” (more opportunities for more money), announced last week by the operator’s commercial director Vlad Volfson .
In addition, even earlier Megafon abandoned unlimited tariffs on the mobile Internet - the corresponding option was in the previous line of tariffs, but now it is not available for new connections.
Let us recall that since the end of 2021, mobile operators, one after another, began to abandon tariffs with unlimited Internet access. Yota, a subsidiary of Megafon, was the first to take this step. Instead of an unlimited Internet traffic package, the operator offered packages with a limited amount of data and the ability to connect an additional option with unlimited access to major social networks and instant messengers.
How to activate the Megafon.tv service?
In order to use this service, first you need to download a special program for free on your computer or phone. This application works on platforms designed for computers and smartphones - Windows, Android, iOS, etc.
Having launched it, indicate your phone number, but if the user is not a Megafon subscriber, then the system will assign him a virtual number to log into the system. After this, the program will ask you to select the necessary packages to which you want to connect.
Step 1. Register with Megafon TV on the website.
Step 2. Enter the code received via SMS.
Step 3. Select a program.
The operator’s subscribers also have the opportunity to enable or disable the option through Personal Account on the company’s official website. In addition, it is very easy to become the owner of this service by simply sending a free SMS with the text TV to the number 5500 .
Step 1. Login to your personal account.
Step 2.
Step 3.
Step 4. Select and connect a tariff.
To fully view the selected channels, you need to regularly check your personal account for the availability of funds on it, since if the balance is negative, the service does not work and is blocked until the required amount is replenished.
Topping up a number (including a virtual one) occurs in standard ways: through a terminal, using a bank card, as well as at Megafon service centers.
You can top up your Megafon TV balance on the Megafon website.

Communication salon
Also, to deactivate the service, you can come to the Megafon salon and ask a consultant to disable the unnecessary service. To do this, you need to have a passport with you, but if you don’t have one with you, then any document confirming the identity of the subscriber. The salon consultants have services at their disposal that can be used to disable the service.
Service interface on devices
