Most mobile phone plans, withwhich we have to face, suggest the presence of subscription fees. This means that the user must regularly pay bills that the operator exposes in order to be able to make calls, send SMS messages, use Internet traffic. Of course, this situation is not everyone likes.
There are people who would like to have connected toThis or that mobile operator number is purely for receiving calls or, say, for a one-time access to the Internet. To pay constantly and regularly for it to be able to do this is quite unprofitable. That is why subscribers are often looking for a tariff plan with no monthly fees.
MTS, as the leader of the Russian telecom segment, is ready to provide such tariffs. About them, and will be discussed in today's article.
Let's start with a description of what plans are so good withoutthe need to regularly pay for their use. In principle, this is obvious - the subscriber is not forced to replenish the account every month, say, by 300 rubles. It pays only for those services that it consumes, for example, for a call every 2 days, SMS or per day of using the Internet (or even for the amount of traffic that was once consumed).
Thus, a similar approach allowscertain situations save. After all, choosing a tariff plan without a monthly fee (MTS), you do not pay for additional services that you do not actually use. So, in the end, pay less.
The second point is a psychological attitude.people to the subscription fee. So our nature is arranged. If the operator imposes an obligation to replenish the account for a certain amount, this can be somewhat depressing to the person. Well, I do not want some to feel this feeling when you have to pay a certain amount once a month. The logic of such subscribers is simple: “I used the services - I paid. But I will not make contributions in advance. ”
This is less serious, but also an explanation of why MTS tariffs without monthly fees are more successful than plans with a monthly fee.
Хотя, если мы взглянем на эту ситуацию с From the economic point of view, in order to establish a real benefit for the subscriber, we will understand the opposite. In fact, tariffs with a monthly fee is more profitable. And the reason for this is quite simple - the operator company knows how much money you will definitely spend on communication services in the next month. Therefore, it can in some sense count on your contribution. In addition, making monthly payments, you buy wholesale services; whereas in a situation with no regular pay you actually consume them at retail. This already obviously affects the final cost of consumed Internet traffic, minutes for calls and SMS, which the operator provides you.
Therefore, if you need MTS tariffs withoutsubscription fees, consider whether they really will be so profitable for you. A positive answer to this question will be only if you really need a number to perform one-time tasks.
If you look at the tariff grid of this operator,We note the following: all plans are divided into two groups, the first of which includes tariffs with regular payments, and the second without those. Obviously, plans with a monthly fee are more profitable. Even with a cursory examination it can be noticed. The user, being on such a plane, ultimately gets much more.
On the other hand, there are “free” plans withoutmandatory payments, which we will be talking about. Yes, if we compare the package of services provided within the framework of plans from the first and second groups, then more, of course, get users with tariffs, which include a monthly fee. But the topic of our article is plans for which you do not need to pay regularly, and therefore we will now conduct a brief overview of each of those that we managed to find. All these tariffs will be supported by MTS for a year without a monthly fee and even more (if there is some activity on the number).
This tariff is aimed at userswho often communicate with subscribers from other countries due to the fact that the cost of calls here from 1 to 5 minutes (to CIS numbers, as well as Vietnam, Korea and the USA) is charged at a price of 4.5 rubles; from 6 to 10 minutes - 1.5 rubles. If we talk about calls to Azerbaijan and Belarus, then their cost will be at the level of 9.5 rubles per minute. Calling to Europe is much more expensive, such calls will cost the subscriber 49 rubles per minute.
To communicate with subscribers from Moscow, you will have topay 2.5 rubles per minute for the first 5 minutes. conversation and 1.5 rubles - for each subsequent. Calls to Russian numbers will cost 3 rubles for each of the 5 first minutes and 1.5 rubles. - for the following.
SMS and the Internet on this plan are quite expensive - 9.9 rubles for a megabyte of traffic and from 2 to 6.5 rubles for each message.
Thus, this typical tariff plan withoutMTS subscription fee is positioned as for calls abroad. You can use it within the country, but it is less profitable. By the way, the transition to the plan is also paid, it will cost 150 rubles. “Your country” is valid only for residents of Moscow and the region (MTS subscribers). A year without a monthly fee such a tariff will be active only if calls are made from it.
Этот тариф также может быть подключен лишь subscribers from the capital and MO. He suggests an interesting proposal - 20 minutes of free calls within the region. True, the rest of the services within this plan are quite expensive. This is clearly not the cheapest MTS tariff without a monthly fee.
Calls after the 21st minute of local callsnumbers will cost the user 1.5 rubles; to call other numbers (not MTS) within the region, you need to pay 2.5 rubles per minute, and to talk to subscribers from other regions - 5 rubles (MTS). A call to the number of another operator from another region will be charged at 14 rubles per minute. Internet, as in the previous tariff, will cost 9.9 rubles per megabyte. Switching to such a tariff MTS without a monthly fee will also cost the subscriber 150 rubles.
This plan is analogous to what is described.above, only with such a difference: it can be connected not only to residents of Moscow and the Moscow region. It is obviously available on the territory of all of Russia, and the cost of calls is calculated according to the same formula.
If we talk briefly about both tariffs "SuperMTS ”, then only 2 advantages will be obvious - the absence of a mandatory fee and 20 minutes of free calls in the subscriber’s region. The rest of the services are obviously provided at too high prices, due to which the operator obviously compensates for the lack of regular fees.
At the cost of additional services with "Super" is similarRed Energy tariff. True, it does not imply the availability of free 20 minutes to local MTS numbers. But, according to this plan, the subscriber can call at a low price - only 1.6 rubles per minute to all numbers from his region. This concerns, among other things, the numbers of other operators.
An obvious alternative:either the user is given free calls to the numbers of his network (“Super MTS”), or cheaper calls to all numbers from his region (this tariff plan) with no monthly fee. MTS, allowing you to make such a choice, creates additional comfort for the user. Let's say this: depending on who you communicate with over the telephone more often, these two plans can be very profitable for you.
The third package, which we will consider on a par withthe two mentioned are called “per second”. He also belongs to the group that MTS has - tariffs without monthly fees. True, this plan differs in the tariffing of conversations - it happens every second.
This means that for every second conversation withany number from your region you must pay 5 kopecks. Thus, by simple calculations, it is possible to establish that a minute of calls will cost 3 rubles.
Такой тарифный план без абонентской платы МТС hooked up for users who have a few seconds of conversation to say something most important and immediately hang up. At the same time, the cost of additional services (calls to other numbers, Internet and SMS) here are the same as on Super MTS and on Red Energy.
These are all rates that are available frommobile operator MTS. Internet without subscription fees is at all, but its cost is extremely high. It is much more profitable to connect the tariff with regular payments. SMS concerns the same. And in general, packages are beneficial only to those who speak little or not on the phone at all. And so it will be until new MTS tariffs appear without subscription fees.
You have seen how much the service costs on tariffs.without mandatory fee. As you can see, the cost of services is quite high. For comparison: the tariff "Smart mini" allows you to make an unlimited number of calls to MTS in your region for only 200 rubles, talk 1000 minutes for free with MTS numbers in Russia, send 50 free SMS and spend 500 megabytes of mobile Internet. A call to the numbers of other operators will cost 10 rubles.
So the monthly fee or "free recharge"?You decide. For calls to numbers of your network, Super MTS is suitable, while for communication with subscribers of other networks in your region it is better to take Red Energy. The seconds will seem interesting to those who speak very little.
