Tariff plan MTS Tariffische – this is a real bestseller in all mobile phone stores. Created for any purpose and allows the subscriber to independently configure packages of minutes and SMS, on which the monthly cost of servicing the tariff plan depends.
This material outlines the main advantages and disadvantages of the Tariffishche plan in 2021, and a detailed description and reviews will help you make the right choice.
Description
The tariff is a continuation of the legendary My Unlimited. Let's go to the company's official website using the link https://moskva.mts.ru/personal and select the required service section.
On the page we will find a description of the Tariff, which has become a bestseller. Click on the words Unlimited Internet, calls to all networks.
The subscriber has the right to select an individual set of services and independently set up a tariff that includes a certain number of minutes and SMS. Don't even think about gigabytes. Internet is unlimited.
There are 4 active packages on the tariff plan:
- 500 min. + 500 SMS = 650 RUR/month;
- 800 min. + 800 SMS = 800 RUR/month;
- 1500 min. + 1500 SMS = 1050 RUR/month;
- 3000 min. + 3000 SMS = 1550 RUR/month.
These prices are valid for residents of Moscow and the region. In St. Petersburg the cost will be 550 rubles. In the regions, the price tag will drop even lower to 400 rubles for 500 minutes and 500 SMS.
After the initial connection, the initial package is activated. The user chooses whether to keep this package or choose another one with more minutes for calls. You can do this by visiting the My MTS application on your mobile phone or logging into your personal account on the company’s website mts.ru.
The offer is great, but we'll figure out roaming. From August 2018, telecom operators must abandon roaming within the country. MTS is no exception to the rule. This operator will be a pioneer. From official sources it became known: outgoing calls to other operators in the home region are charged the same when traveling within the Russian Federation. Let's look at this issue in more detail later.
Advantages of the Tariffishche tariff
The offer appeared quite recently, but has already become a bestseller for MTS. This is due to the following benefits of the plan:
- Each user can customize the plan for themselves . For example, for the most chatty subscribers, packages of minutes and messages of 1,700 each are available. For those who do not use such a number of communication services, it is quite possible to get by with volumes of 700 messages and minutes.
- 50 GB of mobile traffic regardless of the client’s location. The same conditions will apply both in the home region and during movements throughout Russia. The same freedom is provided when making calls.
- Possibility to connect Unlimited Internet . This service is paid. The cost varies depending on the region!
- The package of minutes is valid even for long-distance travel; no additional payments are required.
Important! From the provided packages, minutes will be spent that are spent not only on local calls, but also those that were carried out intercity, including while in roaming.
Advantages and disadvantages
Promises are always good. Let's look at two main questions that interest users:
- Is the Internet unlimited?
- Does roaming work within the country?
Internet
Looking ahead, I will say that unlimited Internet is not like that. If you decide to travel outside of it, you only get 500 megabytes of traffic per day. After exhaustion, the speed is cut to 128 kilobytes.
For your information! This is the Internet speed available on ADSL modems at the end of 2005. It is so slow that the Yandex start page takes 3-5 seconds to open. 500 MB is very little by today's standards.
This traffic is enough:
- to check personal messages on social networks;
- to check mail;
- view the weather in Yandex;
- to read the latest news;
- checking your balance on your mobile phone using the official application.
Considering the home region, the company was lying again. For a month, the Tariff is issued 30 GB, then the speed is cut to 128 KB. In fact, thirty gigabytes is neither much nor small. I personally spend 20 GB per month, but I don’t limit myself too much. For YouTube lovers, you will have to refuse the new offer, since this amount of traffic will not be enough. The most annoying thing is that MTS talked about absolutely unlimited Internet without roaming restrictions.
I’ll tell you more about the disadvantages of the Tariff. Internet transmission is prohibited. You cannot use file hosting services. In case of violation of the terms of use, the connection speed will drop to 128 kb per second. You may have a question, why is it needed then? To be honest, the Tariff is a continuation of My Unlimited at a more attractive low price. Instead of 810 rubles for 30 GB and 500 minutes. you will pay 650 rubles.
Roaming
In 2014, Crimea and Sevastopol came under Russia’s wing. Cellular operators are afraid to serve these regions. This is all due to sanctions from Europe and the USA.
The company stated at a press conference that the Tariff is valid throughout the Russian Federation. So there is one in Crimea too? But no. If we carefully review the terms of service, we will find the following words - the tariff is valid in the territory of presence of the MTS network. The following picture emerges: since this company does not exist in Crimea, roaming does not apply to the included regions. Therefore, everyone who wants to go to Crimea, be prepared to pay for roaming when communicating with relatives.
Disadvantages of the tariff
Every proposal has its downsides. On the Tariff plan, the main disadvantages are:
- There is no free unlimited internet. You have to pay extra for this service.
- The subscriber will not be able to share his traffic with other users. The usual methods of distributing the Internet via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or USB point will not work if you are connected to the tariff in question.
- Balances on packages of minutes and messages cannot be used in the next billing period. This means that all unspent calls and SMS will expire at the end of that month. “Exchange gigabytes for cashback!”
- When using file-sharing networks, the connection speed will be reduced to 128 Kbps . Internet speed limits can also be caused by network congestion.
- As part of the “Unified Internet” option, provided that you are its initiator, the amount of traffic available for distribution will be limited to 10 GB for the entire billing period.
Pros of the tariff
- Online balances can be exchanged for cashback in the next billing period. You can use cashback to pay for communication services or spend it in the MTS online store as part of the “Exchange gigabytes for cashback!” promotion. But to get cashback you need to try!
How to get cashback for GB balances?
On the last day of the paid period from 00:00 to 23:50 local time, go to your personal account in the Internet section and click “Exchange gigabytes”.
How do you know when the last day of the paid period is?
In your personal account, in the section with your tariff, there is information until what date you have paid for it.
How much cashback can you get?
Cashback is calculated using the formula:
Your cashback = 275* (Remaining of your traffic in gigabytes – Unburnable balance 1 GB) / 24
It turns out that if you have 7 GB , then you will receive 68.75 rubles .
How to connect
Many users have a question: how to connect the Tariff? There are several options for self-connection:
- On your mobile phone, dial *111*1115# and press the Call button. After a short wait you will be automatically connected.
- Through your personal account.
- In the My MTS application.
If you decide to connect to a tariff while being with another operator, there is no need to buy a new SIM card. You need to contact any of the organization’s offices and switch to a new plan while maintaining your old number.
If the subscriber has exhausted the package of minutes, additional charges are possible. They depend on the number of minutes included in the package:
- in a package for 500 minutes, the cost of one minute is 0.95 rubles;
- in a package for 800 min., cost 1 min. – 0.75 rubles;
- in a package for 1500 min., cost 1 min. – 0.50 rubles;
- in a package for 3000 min., cost 1 min. – 0.25 rubles.
Cost of calls to other countries:
- Europe – 49 rub./min.;
- CIS – 35 rub./min.;
- other countries – 70 rub./min.
When switching to a new tariff plan, the client will activate GOOD'OK free of charge for two months. This promotion will last 2 months, then you will have to pay for it. The Zabugorishche service is activated automatically, be careful when going on vacation to other countries. If you decide to use the phone and dial a loved one, you will immediately be charged 320 (or 390) rubles per day. It all depends on where you are and the country you are in.
You will find out the remaining minutes and SMS in the package by dialing *100*1# on your mobile phone.
