Megafon tariff "Calls" - how to connect and cost

Looking for an unlimited offer or need a plan with no monthly fee? This article is about them. We will discuss in detail the current Megafon tariffs in Moscow and the region. Using our tables you can find the most favorable tariff for yourself. The article will be supplemented with new tariffs coming out in 2021, do not forget to bookmark the site.

Look on our website: MTS and Beeline Moscow tariffs.

What is included in the tariff?

First, let's talk about the subscription fee. On the “Calls” tariff plan it is 600 rubles . per month. Megafon does not charge money for changing the tariff if you have not changed the tariff within a month. If the transition was made, then 100 rubles .

Tariff plan cost

Also worth considering:

To switch to “Calls”, your account balance must be at least 610 rubles.
The subscription fee for new Megafon clients is debited daily in the first 15 days after connection, and on the 16th day the remainder for the second half of the month is debited. From the 2nd month, the subscription fee is charged in one payment.
When changing the tariff to “Calls”, the subscription fee is charged at one time and in full.

When connecting to “No overpayments. Calls" in 2021, you will be provided with:

600 min. to all phones in the Russian Federation (landline phones, numbers of other telecom operators).
Unlimited calls on the Megafon network.
5 GB internet.
Unlimited traffic in instant messengers, even with a zero balance.
The ability to distribute Internet traffic without restrictions.
Possibility to accumulate Internet up to 25 GB .
Protection against accidental connection of paid services.

Excerpt from the tariff plan
When the main package is used up, making calls or sending SMS on the “No overpayments” tariff plan. Calls" prices are set as follows:

In the home region, to the numbers of all operators or landline phones - 2 r/min , in others - 3 r/min .
An SMS in your home region will cost 2.2 rubles , an SMS to others – 3.5 rubles .

Line of tariffs “Unite”

I was offered one of the tariffs from the “Unite” line, which includes mobile communications, home Internet and TV - “Unite! Hit”, but in this article we will consider all three tariffs of the line: “Combine! Economy", "Combine! Hit" and "Unite! For our own people,” and we will do this, as usual, using the example of Moscow and the region. Options and prices may vary in other regions.

Discount on subscription fee

But let’s start, perhaps, with a discount on the subscription fee, since this is perhaps the most important parameter of all tariffs. The discount is 50%, which is great. The discounted subscription fee looks very, very good for the parameters presented.

The conditions for the discount are as follows:

It’s funny, but the subscription fee announced to me over the phone, 400 rubles, would have lasted only 1 month, and then it would have amounted to 800 rubles per month. The maximum discount period is 6 months, for new customers who have not used WiFire and Megafon services before, so I suggest considering tariffs without taking into account the discount

Tariff “Combine! Economy" from Megafon

Includes:

Unlimited home Internet at speeds up to 50 Mbit/s. If desired, for an additional 100 rubles per month you can increase the speed to 100 Mbit/s.
Megafon TV with Megafon package (50 channels).
Mobile communications: 300 minutes to local mobile numbers and any numbers in Russia. Calls to Megafon Russia numbers are free, unlimited and do not consume your package of minutes.
Mobile Internet is unlimited.

Payment:

Subscription fee – 600 rubles per month.
Renting a Wi-Fi router (100 Mbit/s) – 55 rubles per month.
Renting a TV set-top box Megafon-TV – 99 rubles per month.

If you need mobile communications with unlimited Internet and an average package of minutes, as well as home Internet with a modest speed, which can be increased for an additional fee, then the tariff looks quite good. As for TV, I'm not sure.

Tariff “Combine! Hit" from Megafon

Includes:

Unlimited home Internet at speeds up to 100 Mbit/s.
Megafon TV with “Optimal” and “Hit” packages (160 channels).
Mobile communications: 1200 minutes to local mobile numbers and any numbers in Russia. Calls to Megafon Russia numbers are free, unlimited and do not consume your package of minutes.
Mobile Internet is unlimited.

Payment:

Subscription fee – 800 rubles per month.
Renting a Wi-Fi router (100 Mbit/s) – 55 rubles per month.
Renting a TV set-top box Megafon-TV is free.

As a result, we have quite good mobile communication conditions, standard home Internet up to 100 Mbit/s and Megafon-TV with a decent number of channels.

Tariff “Combine! For our own" from Megafon

Includes:

Unlimited home Internet at speeds up to 300 Mbit/s.
Megafon TV with “Maximum”, “Children’s” and “18+” packages (236 channels).
Mobile communications: 2000 minutes to local mobile numbers and any numbers in Russia. Calls to Megafon Russia numbers are free, unlimited and do not consume your package of minutes.
Mobile Internet is unlimited.

Payment:

Subscription fee – 1500 rubles per month.
Renting a Wi-Fi router (1 Gbit/s) is free.
Renting a TV set-top box Megafon-TV is free.

Good home Internet speed, a solid set of channels for TV, a decent set of parameters for mobile communications, but all this for 1,500 rubles per month. Quite a serious leap compared to “Unite! Hit”, but the set-top box and router are free.

Additionally

For each tariff, the following is additionally provided:

Rent Yandex.Station for 399 rubles per month with a free subscription to Yandex.Plus for 1 year.
Cloud storage "MegaDisk" 1 TB.
The ability to connect friends and family to the “Turn On! Communicate" with a 40% discount on the subscription fee. Maximum – 10 SIM cards. The discount is valid indefinitely, which is good, but when this promotion (the very possibility of connecting to discounted tariffs) will end is unknown.

Who is it suitable for?

The “Calls” package is suitable for those for whom it is important to always be in touch and who talk on the phone for a large amount of time. As a rule, these are middle-aged people who work in areas where it is always necessary to have a few extra minutes of conversation in reserve. This tariff is also suitable for older people, because they will no longer worry about running out of money or minutes in their account.

Due to the fact that the tariff includes prepaid 5 Gigabytes of Internet, it will also be useful for students and schoolchildren, because almost everyone has Internet at home, and on the street or in another place, extra Internet on the phone will not hurt.

Cost of calls and internet if limits are exceeded

30 rub. in 30 minutes to all phones in the Russian Federation.
50 rub. for 500 MB of Internet traffic.

You can refuse auto-renewal of your package of minutes, but the cost of calls will be higher:

In the home region, tariffs will be 2 r/min.
In others - 3/min .

To extend the Internet at the “No overpayments” tariff. Calls" from Megafon, use. The cost of the service depends on the size of the purchased Internet traffic.

Personal opinion

Personally, I know several people who would benefit from this tariff. The only question in this case is whether Megafon wants a lot for such a tariff? A few updates ago, for this money you could connect “Turn on! Communicate”, one of the versions of which had a normal package of minutes, however, unlimited within the network was only the end of the package of minutes, and unlimited mobile Internet. And now only this offer... I understand that there are subscribers for whom this tariff is suitable, and they will use it. But I don’t like him, I can’t help it. Too modest mobile Internet for pretty decent money. And minutes are not a bonus, but simply normal conditions that should be on normal tariffs.

What is paid extra?

Tariff plan “No overpayments. Calls" from Megafon in 2021 does not include an SMS package. For 1 SMS they will charge:

2.2 rub . SMS on your home network.
3.5 rub . SMS in other regions.
The cost of an MMS message is 9.90 rubles .

Calls to other countries at the “No overpayments” tariff. Calls from Megafon are also paid separately. The cost is as follows :

Ukraine, South Ossetia, CIS, Abkhazia, Georgia – 39 r/min.
European countries, Türkiye, Israel – 59 r/min.
Other countries – 79 r/min.
For satellite phones – 313 rubles. in a minute.

To make profitable calls to other countries, you can connect. This will significantly reduce costs. For example, for a minute of conversation with Ukraine you will pay only 6 rubles instead of 39 rubles, with Israel - 2 rubles, with China - 1.5 rubles.

Other similar tariffs from other operators

Reviews about the tariff

Maxim: “I connected as soon as it was launched. I definitely won’t change it for another one. I make calls mainly for work in other regions, I use the Internet mainly to send documents. So for me this ratio of traffic and minutes is very profitable.”

Elena: “Very good tariff. I call my mother all the time now. She’s a pensioner, she’s not friends with Skype or Viber, so you can only talk to her normally on the phone. Previously, I greatly overpaid above my tariff for such conversations, but now I communicate freely and don’t worry that I’ll end up in the red.”

Pavel: “I changed the tariff to “Calls” solely because of the minutes.
I have my own small store, I often have to call suppliers in other regions, and communication was quite expensive. And now I’ve given 600 rubles and there’s no need to worry.”
