Tariff overview
Any tariff is a set of various services in a certain volume that are provided to the subscriber for a certain period of time. For the right to use such services, you must pay a subscription fee. As a rule, the service package is provided for a month, which means that the subscription fee must be paid monthly. For the All Inclusive M tariff it is 500 rubles.
Here it is necessary to clarify that this amount is valid for residents of Moscow and the Moscow region. For other regions of the country, both the subscription fee and some other prices may differ, both up and down.
Since it is impossible to cover all regions within one article, we will indicate the values relevant for the capital.
Tariff content
When charging a subscription fee under the All Inclusive M tariff, MegaFon offers the following set of services:
- 500 minutes for outgoing calls. They are spent on all domestic calls, with the exception of MegaFon numbers in the home region. The latter are not limited in any way and are not paid additionally. Minutes unused in a month do not carry over to the next month. After the limit is exhausted, subsequent calls will be charged according to the operator’s conditions;
- 400 SMS. Batch messages are available for sending to any mobile numbers within Russia. Starting from the 401st SMS, they will have to be paid additionally;
- 3 GB Internet traffic. Depending on the device used, the operator will provide this volume for 3G or 4G communications. If you use the Internet for surfing, checking email, communicating on social networks, viewing photos, then such traffic should be enough for a month. If, however, you have exhausted this limit, an additional Internet traffic package will be automatically connected. This service is paid.
If you consistently do not use package units in a month, it makes sense to consider switching to a tariff with fewer units, so as not to overpay for excess. On the other hand, if you need more minutes, SMS and GB, then you have 2 options: either purchase additional packages, or switch to a tariff with a larger number of package units.
Domestic and international roaming
This TP is not very suitable for use on trips, but it cannot be called the worst either. If you are going to travel exclusively within your own country, then here you can use services at home prices, regardless of what region you are in. The same applies to the Internet. But there are places where TP is not provided (does not work). In this case, you will have to pay 9.9 rubles for one megabyte. Prices for services provided abroad should be clarified in advance according to the region where you are going. This can also be done in LC.
Cost of services
In order to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of a tariff, it is not enough to know only its contents. It is also necessary to take into account the prices for services used by the operator. You should definitely familiarize yourself with them before connecting in order to have an idea of what approximate monthly expenses await you. Otherwise, you can quickly become disappointed in the tariff and have to switch to another one. MegaFon has introduced the following prices in the “All Inclusive M” tariff:
- incoming calls are free;
- calls to MegaFon numbers in your home region and when traveling around Russia are free;
- calls to other numbers in your home region above the package - 1.6 rubles/minute;
- calls to other numbers in other regions above the package - 3 rubles/minute;
- forwarding to any numbers in your region - 2.5 rubles;
- incoming SMS and MMS - free;
- outgoing SMS to mobile numbers in your region above the limit - 2.9 rubles;
- outgoing SMS to mobile numbers in other regions above the limit - 3.9 rubles;
- outgoing SMS to foreign mobile numbers - 5 rubles;
- additional Internet traffic package after exhaustion of package GB () - 30 rubles/200 MB.
If you primarily invest in standard package minutes, SMS and GB, then your additional costs will be insignificant.

Additional terms
When describing their tariff offers, mobile operators usually talk about the most basic parameters, focusing on the advantageous aspects. However, each tariff hides many little things that can turn out to be significant.
Some of them may lead to additional costs, which may cause disappointment in the tariff. Others provide useful features that the subscriber may not be aware of. To use the tariff fully and avoid unnecessary costs, you need to know in advance about all the pitfalls.
MegaFon also included some implicit features in its All Inclusive M tariff that are worth knowing about.
We tentatively tried to identify positive and negative ones among them. But the final assessment of these nuances remains with the subscriber.
Pros: only two
- Connecting to each tariff of the “All Inclusive” line automatically includes the MegaFon.TV service. It allows you to watch television channels for free without the cost of Internet traffic. However, if you use the service in Crimea and Sevastopol or use the Google Chrome browser to watch TV, traffic will be consumed. For normal operation of the service, you can use a special application. You can watch television from MegaFon.TV using various mobile devices, as well as SMART TVs and computers.
- When switching to “All Inclusive M”, not 500 rubles, but 250 are debited from the account. And packages are provided only at half the size. Thus, the operator provides the subscriber with the opportunity to try using the tariff for half a month and, if desired, cancel it without paying for the entire month. If the subscriber is satisfied with it, on the 16th day of use another 250 rubles are withdrawn and the second half of the packages are credited. Starting from the 2nd month, the fee will be debited from the account in full.
Cons: we counted six (if you know more, add in the comments)
