For sure, buying a starter pack (SIM card)for your mobile phone, you have repeatedly faced with the concepts of "tariff plan", choosing the terms of service for a particular operator. In this article, we will discuss in more detail what it is, what is the advantage of working with ready-made plans, rather than individual options, and consider what plans are available for different mobile operators.
Let's start with a description of what a tariff plan is.At the level of everyday communication, each of us understands that this is a certain set of conditions that presupposes a certain cost of certain services. In the case of a mobile communication plan, this includes options such as calls (to numbers within the network or to subscribers of other mobile operators), SMS messages, some amount of data for working with mobile Internet, and so on. A certain set of this all is a "tariff plan".
Each operator for the purpose of more convenientcustomer orientation and, in addition, manipulation of the opinions of subscribers, gives definite names to their plans. For example, their tariff plans "Beeline" calls "All for ...", adding at the end of the name a figure - the cost of the plan. Here there are tariffs "All for 200", "All for 400" and so on. This is convenient, simple and concise - the subscriber understands that it is a question of the price of the plan, also realizing that he will be provided with a whole range of services (since there is "everything"). At the psychological level, I want to know what the tariff plan is and how much it can be profitable.
For example, "All for 200" is free of chargecalls to numbers within the network for their region and for the Russian Federation, as well as SMS for 2 rubles. The cost of communication with subscribers of other operators is 9.9 rubles per minute. Again, the plan "All for 400" is already 2GB of Internet, 100 SMS, 400 free minutes. Next, the tariffs for "Beeline" go on increasing - for 600 rubles 600 minutes, 5GB and 300 SMS, for 900 - 1000 min., 6GB and 500 messages. The largest amount of opportunities is the plan for 1500 rubles. The subscriber is provided with 10GB of traffic, "no limit" within the network, 1 thousand SMS.
This situation can be found in all mobileoperators. For example, the tariff plans of "Rostelecom" (which serves Tele2) are creatively called. Here there are plans "Black", "Very black", "Most black", "Green". It's not so easy to understand what exactly is meant by such names, but the whole idea is interesting, and subscribers can like it.
A little bit about what a tariff plan is, weexplained. Now we note that there are different types of tariffs, which can be divided on the basis of different criteria. For example, many operators separate plans for subscribers on a contract basis from those who are serviced on a prepaid basis. Or else: there are tariff plans "Beeline" - within their user is given a certain amount of Internet traffic, they are posted on the company's website separately from the tariffs, in which there is a set of services, since they are designed not only for phones.
Even in the "Beeline" share the tariffs on prepayment andpostpay. For example, service on postpaid tariffs differs somewhat from the usual form of prepayment. Due to this, the companies put them in a separate group.
Some providers also separate tariffs with unlimited services (calls, SMS or traffic packets) from those where there is a certain restriction.
To make it easier, let's take some realplans that are in force for a particular company. At least the tariff plans of Rostelecom. "Black" gives an opportunity for 90 rubles a month to call free of charge to numbers within the network, and to other subscribers - at 75 kopecks per minute (within the region). If we talk about communication throughout the country, then calls will cost 2 rubles per minute - for Tele2 and 9 rubles for the rest. The subscriber is also given 1.5GB of Internet.
"The most black", as the more advanced tariffplan, provides a larger package of services. In particular, for 290 rubles a month, the user is given 4GB of Internet, 1000 free SMS, 100 minutes for other numbers throughout the country and 400 for calls to subscribers of his network.
Interestingly, the process of creating options inUkrainian communication company "Kyivstar". Tariff plans here and named: "For a smartphone", "For a smartphone +", "For calls" and so on. Thus, the subscriber, making a choice, can simply orient himself on the corresponding name of the service.
Some operators even have fullyfree tariffs that are promotional! For example, the plan "Internet forever" at the "Beeline" - it's 200 megabytes of Internet for your tablet every month! Yes, this is really a very small amount of data, but with it any subscriber can test the connection speed for free.
Кстати, это тоже интересный вопрос - как, ordering a new plan, making the right choice and subscribing to such a tariff, which will completely suit you by all criteria - by cost, number of minutes for calls, Internet data package and so on. First, for this you will need to clearly understand how often you call, use the Internet, send messages. Secondly, it is necessary to pay attention to the expediency of spending certain amounts of funds every month for maintenance on a particular tariff. Thirdly, do not forget about special offers and various bonuses. They can also be present in the conditions of a particular tariff plan. When making a choice, do not forget about it - so you can get some additional opportunities, not so obvious at first glance. Again, speaking about the "Beeline", you can mention the action "Internet as a gift". If you buy a branded device in their store (smartphone or tablet), you are given a gift of 10GB of Internet for 3 months. It seems that you do not need to pay anything extra - you will be provided with traffic!
Given that such a tariff plan, it is obvious thatfor more efficient use of funds, the subscriber needs to keep a certain semblance of accounting for his expenses, so as not to exceed the limits allocated to him. To do this he can with the help of special commands or, for example, through a personal cabinet. It is fast and affordable for everyone.
However, for this you need to understand how to find out your tariff plan. Since some users simply do not have information about the conditions under which they are served.
Again, there are several easy ways to learnyour plan. The first is a call to the operator. On the "Beeline" is the number 0611. The operator in the database will display information on the terms of your number. The second is checking through the "Personal Cabinet". This is an affordable way for those who can go online. Again, the "Beeline" has its own website, where there is a form of entering the office. Enter personal data there - and you will see information about your plan. The third option is to check through the operator's communications lounge. There you can contact the subscriber and ask the consultants to establish your plan.
Наконец, узнав, на каких условиях вам provide communication services, you can sort out your expenses and the options that are offered to you. For example, you can always switch to a more profitable tariff if you find one. Most often it's free, although sometimes there are certain fees for switching to another plan. It all depends on the policy of the operator and the conditions of the specific service.
We hope, in this article the information is laid out soway to help you understand what a tariff plan is, how it is arranged, and what is its role. As you understand, working with it is more convenient than with individual services, as it unites them and simplifies them. Moreover, plans are usually more profitable, as it is a package of services, which, roughly speaking, is bought by the "wholesaler" subscriber. Due to this and their price is lower
