Tariff “My Friend” on MTS: description of the tariff in 2021

Internet without end

Everything is simple here: download as much as you want by activating the “Unlimited Internet” option. 10, 20, 30 GB... More? Yes, if you can, but don’t forget about healthy sleep too. Are you expecting any “buts”? It is the only one: MTS reserves the right to limit the traffic generated by torrents. The “Unlimited Internet” option is not included in the subscription fee. But by connecting it, you will receive a free subscription to the popular online cinema IVI. It is important, however, to know that by default the tariff includes a large Internet package - 50 GB.* And also - unlimited access to several popular social networks and instant messengers, in addition due to the “All Networks” option free on this tariff.

*Hereinafter - conditions for Moscow. You can check the tariff features in your region on the MTS website.

Special conditions of MTS

a tariff for pensioners from a line without a monthly fee that does not involve active communication - “Super MTS”, “Per Second”, “Red Energy”. They enable older people to control communication costs.

A favorable tariff for children should limit communication, but allow you to always stay in touch. If your parents have MTS, the “Super MTS” tariff plan is best suited for this purpose.

The range of corporate tariffs is very wide. The choice of a specific product is made based on individual preferences.

What about minutes and SMS?

By default, the tariff includes 700 minutes and 700 SMS per month to any telephone numbers in Russia. That is, until you have used up these packages, there are no long-distance calls in this tariff. If 700 minutes and SMS are not enough for you, customize their number for yourself: increase the volume of packages to 950, 1200 or 1700 SMS and minutes. This can be done in the free My MTS application or in your Personal Account on the operator’s website. After the monthly minutes limit has been reached, calls are billed on a per-minute basis. The cost of calls after the limit is exhausted is lower, the larger the connected package (prices can be checked here).

The most favorable MTS tariffs for Internet and calls

a favorable tariff for calls and Internet from the Smart line in accordance with the required number of minutes and Internet traffic, or from the “My Unlimited” products .

If online communication is limited to social networks, games and other resources that are unlimited in the Hype tariff, you should consider this offer. Additional options will help reduce the cost of the monthly fee.

How much does Tariffishche cost?

A tariff option with minimal packages of minutes and SMS costs 680 rubles per month in Moscow. If the packages are increased, the cost will also increase: 950 minutes and 950 SMS - 835 rubles;

1200 minutes and 1200 SMS - 990 rubles; 1700 minutes and 1700 SMS - 1250 rubles.

The fee is debited once a month, on the same date on which the tariff was activated. If the next month of using the tariff has not yet ended and you increase the packages of minutes and SMS, then at that moment the difference between the old and new tariff costs will be debited from your mobile account. Well, a bonus: for those who choose either of the two most voluminous packages - a free subscription to the popular online cinema IVI.

You can reduce the size of packages in the middle of a month of use, but the new tariff conditions (cost and size of packages) will take effect after the current month of using the tariff. But the cost of minutes after the monthly limit is exhausted changes immediately after changing the package size. You can learn more about the cost and terms of the tariff here.

MTS “Call Mom” tariff: detailed description

“Call Mom” is a special project that was supported by many operators in the country - Beeline, Tele2, Megafon and MTS. They developed their own proposals within the framework of this social project.

Thus, it was planned to increase the availability of cellular communications for the military. As a result, this category of subscribers can significantly save on communication services by calling their loved ones while on duty.

The MTS “Call Mom” military tariff is not offered as a separate offer. It is divided into several options:

1. Super MTS.
2. Smart.
3. Smart Unlimited.

Below we will study the terms and conditions of each offer in detail.

What else should I know about Tariffishche?

The tariff includes the “Zabugorische” option, which allows you to use packages of minutes included in the tariff for calls to Russia while traveling in many popular countries, not pay for incoming calls up to 100 minutes per day, and not pay for mobile Internet up to 1 GB per day. The fee is only 390 rubles per day, but it is only charged if you use communication services while abroad. When traveling within Russia, there is no charge for this option.

The operating conditions of the option may vary in different countries. Details for each country can be found here.

MTS tariff plan My friend: description

Let’s be clear right away: according to the MTS “My Friend” tariff, a trio for 100 rubles is not described in any sources, even the operator has no information about this option. Therefore, in the future we will consider exclusively the standard program and additional options for it.

What conditions are offered under the tariff plan? In 2021 they are as follows:

• 20 minutes per day are provided for calls to MTS numbers.
• After 21 minutes - 1.5 rubles.
• Calls to other operators – 2.5 rub.
• There is no subscription fee.
• SMS and internet packages are not provided.

The program can be very beneficial for subscribers. If friends and relatives use the operator’s services, you can communicate with them for 20 minutes every day for free.

There is no subscription fee for the plan. Therefore, clients should take advantage of it and appreciate all the benefits.

MTS tariff “Tariffishche 02.2020”

Attention! MTS updated the tariff plan on August 13, 2020. You can read the new review here (link). The tariff described in this publication is now called “Tariff 02.2020”.

The mobile operator MTS, as promised, sent the tariff plan “ Tariffische ” to the archive on February 13, 2021. An updated version is now available instead. In this article, we will look at the parameters of the new tariff, compare it with the old version and try to draw conclusions - whether the new version is worse or not.

How to activate the “Call Mom” tariff of MTS

You can activate the military tariff only at the operator’s office or on the official resource of the program. If you are a military personnel, you can fill out an application for a SIM card. So:

• Please indicate your Last Name, First Name and Patronymic.
• Please enter your mobile number and email below.
• Next, the system will prompt you to select the desired mobile operator.
• Enter the number of SIM cards next to it.
• Finally, select your area of ​​residence and city from the list.
• Click "Submit".

In the near future, the project manager will call you back, provide full advice on activation and coordinate the time when you can pick up the SIM card with the connected tariff.

Minutes, SMS, subscription fee

“Tariffishche” is still offered in the form of a constructor. Let's start the analysis with packages of minutes, SMS and subscription fees, which depend on these parameters.

Moscow and region

St. Petersburg and region

Kemerovo and region

MTS has changed its tariff settings, changing the number of minutes, SMS and, of course, the size of the subscription fee. In some regions, for example, Moscow and St. Petersburg, the changes are minor: the minimum version has become slightly more profitable. But in Kemerovo the tariff has become noticeably less attractive, and, simply put, more expensive.

Mobile Internet – unlimited?

Now let’s move on to the most important parameter these days – the mobile Internet package. And it is no longer unlimited... At Tariffishche, the subscriber is provided with 25 GB of mobile Internet (in some regions the package size is different, most often - 30 GB).

On the tariff, you can activate the free “Unlimited Internet” option, which, as you might guess, will provide the subscriber with unlimited mobile Internet on his tariff. Let me remind you that previously unlimited Internet was the basic parameter at Tariffishche.

IMPORTANT UPDATE! From April 15, 2021, the “Unlimited Internet” option became paid. In Moscow and the region - 200 rubles per month. Then its cost was reduced to 100 rubles per month, and today it is 350 rubles per month. Further - continuation of publications without making changes.

It would seem that there is nothing wrong. You just need to enable the option now, and everything will be the same. But this is not at all true...

1. The “Unlimited Internet” option only works in your home region. When traveling around Russia, mobile Internet is consumed from the package. Do you still remember about the abolition of intranet roaming? MTS seems to have already forgotten.
2. You can distribute mobile Internet, but not unlimited. During the distribution, a special mobile Internet package will be consumed (MTS quietly changed the conditions after this review). This is better than it was before - 3 GB of traffic per month for distribution, and then - 75 rubles per day. But still... Beeline and Megafon have unlimited mobile Internet distribution...
3. The use of file-sharing networks is available on the tariff, but for a fee - for 75 rubles per day, the subscriber receives 5 GB of mobile Internet for consumption through torrent trackers and other networks. And this, frankly, is complete ahtung. MTS on “serious cabbage soup” offers 5 GB for torrenting for 75 rubles per day. I haven't seen such impudence for a long time. How it works? When you first try to use torrents, you will be charged once a day (charged only on the days you use the service). Communication services provided are accounted for and charged automatically using appropriate certified equipment. In simple words, you don’t need to connect anything - everything will be charged to you automatically when you try to use p2p.

The most favorable MTS tariffs with a subscription fee with or without the Internet

Tariffs with a subscription fee are suitable for active users of communication services. The package should be selected in accordance with personal requests. The comparative table presents the main characteristics of MTS tariff plans with a subscription fee.

The “My Unlimited” tariff plan replaced the “Smart Unlimited” tariff in January 2018 . However, it has nothing in common with its predecessor. The main difference is the client’s ability to independently change the size of communication service packages at any time.
