Super MTS

The operator considers this TP to be the most profitable. At first glance, you might think that you won't have to pay for anything here at all. In reality free SMS, gigabytes and minutes are available only with special options(the list and commands for disconnecting at the end of the article).

With all the services connected, the monthly fee will be 642 rubles which is not that cheap.

The cost of one SMS without SMS-package will be 1.9 rubles in the region of connection and 3.8 rubles- around the country.

Paid services

At all tariffs without the Internet, under the guise of "optimizing options", the provider includes a number of paid services in the initial package. In the first 14-30 days, services are provided free of charge. But if you do not get rid of them in time, the communication costs with the beginning of the new reporting period will greatly surprise you.

For example, use a SIM card for calls within the MTS network. As a result, it was possible not to replenish the phone balance for months. In fact, subscribers used communication services free of charge, albeit in very limited amounts.

Now the operator is forcing users to use paid services at tariffs without a monthly fee. You must do every two months paid action: make a chargeable call, send SMS or go online. If this does not happen, your tariff plan will be switched to "Basic" (you will not be notified about this), according to which a daily fee is charged in the amount of 3 rubles.

If you have already been switched to the "Basic" tariff plan, it is too late to call or send messages. You need to reconnect the tariff without a monthly fee. You will not be able to switch to the "old" TP if there is a more recent version among the operator's tariffs - with updated parameters.

  • Distributed to any mobile operator in the country without restrictions.

Application features
