Mobile operators have long been trying to transfer their customers to tariffs with a monthly fee. Such tariffs are beneficial for the operator, as they provide for a fixed daily or monthly fee (usually monthly) for a certain amount of service packages (minutes, SMS, Internet). Of course, such tariff plans are beneficial for many subscribers. Everyone can subscribe for a suitable offer depending on their own needs. However, the disadvantage of such tariffs is that the subscription fee will remain unchanged, even if the subscriber does not use the packages available within the tariff plan. If you are far from the most demanding MTS subscriber and you need a tariff plan with a small monthly fee and minimal service packages, then this review will be of interest to you. Tariff "Smart mini" MTS is the cheapest in its line. Today MTS does not have a cheaper tariff with a monthly fee.
In this article we will tell you what the Smart mini tariff from MTS is. Any tariff plan has pitfalls and the Smart mini tariff is no exception to the rule. This guide will allow you to decide whether this tariff plan will be beneficial for you. A careful study of the article will eliminate the possibility of disappointment in the tariff. If you already have an idea about the MTS Smart mini tariff and you are only interested in connection methods, immediately go to the end of the article.

Functionality of the tariff "Smart mini" MTS

MTS provides customers with a fairly large range of tariffs with a monthly fee. The MTS "Smart mini" tariff opens this line. The size of the subscription fee will differ depending on the specific region (from 200 to 300 rubles per month). It is not possible to provide data for each individual region within the framework of one article, and there is hardly any need for this. Differences can only be in the amount of the subscription fee and the volume of service packages. You can always check the information relevant for your region on the MTS website. We will give data for Moscow and the region as an example. Please note that the differences will be only in the amount of the subscription fee and the size of the packages, the rest of the information given in the review will be relevant regardless of your locality.
Before moving on to the features and pitfalls (without which no tariff plan can do), let's consider the declared tariff conditions. As you understand, for a subscription fee of 300 rubles per month, you should not expect much.

MTS "Smart mini" tariff includes:

• 2 GB of internet for a month;
• Unlimited calls to MTS in the home region;
• 250 minutes to numbers of other operators in the home region and MTS Russia;
• 250 SMS to subscribers of the home region.

As expected, the tariff is quite modest packages, in addition, many services are not included in the tariff, which means that additional expenses may arise. It should be noted that many subscribers, in pursuit of the minimum subscription fee, forget about other related costs, as a result of which, instead of the desired savings, they receive significant additional costs. Before connecting this or that tariff plan, always look ahead. Perhaps, instead of smart mini, it will be more profitable to connect a tariff with a higher subscription fee, for example, which includes more solid service packages.

The price of communication services at the MTS Smart mini tariff

Obviously, the service packages available within the Smart mini tariff will not be enough for all subscribers. In this case, you should either consider others, or pay extra in addition to the monthly fee. Which option will be more profitable depends only on you. In any case, you need to calculate everything, and for this you need to familiarize yourself with the prices for communication services.

The cost of communication services on the tariff "Smart mini" MTS:

• Calls to numbers of other operators outside the home region - 14 rubles. in a minute;
• Calls to MTS Russia phones after the package is exhausted - 2 rubles. in a minute;
• SMS to all phones outside the home region - 3.80 rubles.

Separately, it should be said about Internet traffic. For a modern person, 2 gigabytes of Internet is very small, and if you need much more, it is better to immediately consider another tariff, for example,. The fact is that the MTS “Smart mini” tariff does not provide for the possibility of connecting the option with large Internet packages. After the exhaustion of 2 gigabytes, an additional package of 500 MB for 75 rubles will be automatically connected. If you actively consume the Internet, then such conditions will be extremely disadvantageous for you. For active network users there is.

What to look for when switching to the Smart Mini tariff

We have dealt with the basic conditions of the “Smart mini” tariff. It would seem that everything is very clear, it remains only to decide whether the packages available under the tariff will be enough until the end of the billing period or not. So it is, but there are some other aspects that should also be paid attention to. Of course, they will not be important for everyone, but every person who plans to switch to the Smart mini tariff should know about them. Below is a list of features of the tariff plan, which, in our opinion, deserve attention.

Features of the MTS "Smart mini" tariff:

3. The MTS website says that there is no fee for switching to the tariff. Meanwhile, if less than a month has passed since the last change of the tariff plan, you will have to pay 150 rubles + monthly fee for connection.
4. You can not use the tariff in a modem or router. There is also a restriction on the use of file-sharing networks. This feature of the tariff can hardly be considered significant due to the too small Internet package, but you should be aware of this fact.

A question of price

In the sources you can find various cost parameters - 150 rubles, 250 rubles, 200, 300, etc. This is due to some features of the operator's pricing policy.

The company often sets different cost parameters in regions. The amount of income of subscribers in the capital and in Krasnodar, Samara and other cities is different. Experts take this fact into account when forming the cost.

The spread can be in the range of 100-300 rubles, depending on the tariff. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the cost with the operator. The official website of MTS always provides up-to-date information.

Another reason for the spread is that the billing plan was updated.

The company changed the conditions over time and adjusted the parameters. Therefore, the sources remain outdated information.

Situation at the moment

Now the Smart Mini MTS tariff for 200 rubles has disappeared in a number of regions. The company is gradually transferring it to the archive and closing the connection. The reasons are as follows:

• The plan has become outdated and no longer relevant.
• For a number of regions, the company sees no reason to update the tariff.
• There is Smart, which is not too different in terms of basic conditions.

Therefore, it is not a fact that you will be able to connect the tariff. If a company in the region has closed it, then you will not be able to join the program. Only subscribers who have managed to connect can use it.

How can I find out if the plan is available in your area?

1. Visit the operator's website.
2. Proceed to the section with tariffs.
3. Check out current offers.
4. If Smart Mini is not in the list, then the transition to it is closed.
