Service consumption rate mobile communications for subscribers is not always uniform. This may be due to family circumstances, work and travel abroad. As a result, unused minutes and Internet access accumulate on the user’s account. New tariffs allow you to transfer the remaining traffic and minutes to next month. Thus, subscribers can use the operator’s services more actively in the future without additional costs.

Saving minutes and gigabytes for the next month is a convenient and fair service, but there are some tricks here too. According to the operator’s terms, the number of transferred call minutes cannot exceed the number of the main package. What it looks like in practice:

• the number of minutes according to the tariff in the current month is 350 minutes;
• the subscriber still has 250 unused minutes left from the previous period;
• taking into account the transfer of balances, in the current month the user will have access to 600 minutes of conversation (250 + 350);
• During the current period, the subscriber spent only 50 minutes; according to logic, there should be a transfer to the next month in the amount of 550 minutes;
• however, the operator will only add 350 additional minutes to the tariff plan, since 550 minutes exceeds the terms of the main package;
• next month the subscriber will have access to 700 minutes (350 + 350).

Implementation of the rest of the Internet

Saving gigabytes for the next month occurs in a similar manner as transferring minutes on the MTS network. The amount of traffic cannot exceed the conditions of the main package; accumulated MB are not cumulative. Therefore, at the beginning, the subscriber uses the saved traffic from the previous period, then the main quota is activated. Unspent MB from the last month that was not spent in the current month are not carried over to the next month.

Saving traffic and gigabytes is a clear example:

• the user is offered 10 GB per month according to the terms of the tariff plan;
• from the previous period the subscriber has left 9 unused GB, which flow into the current period. At the same time, traffic is divided into new and old MB;
• The “old” 9 GB are used first;
• if the user has spent only 2 GB from the “old reserves”, and the new 10 remain unchanged, then 10 GB will be credited for the next month according to the tariff plan and 10 GB according to the balances of the previous month (10, and not 17, as is obtained arithmetically).

Important: new service carryover of balances to the next month is automatic. The user does not need to perform any automatic actions; the summation of minutes and megabytes is carried out by the operator.

What tariffs provide for the transfer of minutes and traffic?

A popular plan is Smart Unlimited. As part of its use, the user is provided with 5 GB of Internet, 500 free minutes and SMS to numbers in the selected region.

Tariff “Smart +” - the subscription fee will be from 175 rubles per week. The user is given 350 minutes to talk with subscribers in his region. Intercity in free services turned off. The user also has 350 SMS messages and 7 GB of traffic in the MTS Smart tariff.

This amount includes 3000 minutes to all numbers in Russia, without restrictions by region. The user also has 3000 free messages and 15 GB of traffic.

Implementation of packages of minutes andsms: the balance is carried over to the next month, but cannot exceed the size of the main package

Example of transferring minutes/sms:

1.1. size of the package of minutes included in the AP tariff - 350 minutes

1.2. the subscriber had 250 minutes left from last month and they were transferred to the new (current) month

1.3. in total, the subscriber has 350 + 250 = 600 minutes in the current month

1.4. in the current month, the subscriber will spend the entire package of 600 minutes, without dividing into old and new minutes

1.5. by the end of the current month, the subscriber spent only 50 minutes, i.e. remainder of the package of minutes – 550 minutes

1.6. Only 350 minutes will be transferred to the new (next) month

1.7. those. in the next (third) month the subscriber will have 350 + 350 = 700 minutes

Implementation of Internet packages: the balance is transferred to the next month, and the transferred balance cannot be greater than the main package and cannot be combined with the main package. When transferring the balance of the Internet to the next month, first the balance from the previous month is used up, then the main quota, and then auto-renewal is turned on. The remainder of the Internet from the previous month, which was transferred to the current month, is not transferred to the next.

Example of Internet traffic transfer:

1.1. The size of the Internet package included in the UP tariff is 10 GB

1.2. the subscriber had 9 GB left from last month and they were transferred to the new (current) month

Important! Auto-renewal packages DO NOT carry over to the next month

Today MTS must upgrade its “-Smart-” and “-Smart- -Unlimited” tariffs. Old versions are archived. No changes yet.

"-Smart- -Unlimited"

I never understood the clearly inflated activity around this tariff (which was what it was). It is wretched, expensive and clearly disproportionately cut. And the anlim there is only relative. The subscription fee is too high for schoolchildren. For older people - too few minutes. Internet Unlim is only for smartphones, where in the vast majority of cases it is simply not needed.

However, the new “-Smart- -Unlimited” has also become a deception, because now it does not have Internet unlimited in any form at all: stupidly 10 GB per month. Unlim only remains when calling MTS numbers after the total package of minutes has been exhausted, which we also have on others package rates operator. Figures for Moscow:

• Subscription fee - 550 rub. per month (now written off in full per month and without discounts)
• 350 minutes to all Russian networks (was 200 to numbers only in your region and MTS Russia)
• Unlimited calls to MTS Russia (over the package of minutes)
• 2 times more minutes when calling from MTS Connect (first the main package from the tariff is consumed, then the additional one, which is provided only through the application)
• 350- -SMS- -to all numbers in your region
• 10- -GB of internet.

The “-Smart--Unlimited” tariff works without roaming throughout Russia, however, if you use it outside your “home” network, you will be charged an additional monthly fee of 15 rubles. per day .

"-Smart"

Subscription fee - 500 rub. per month (decreased by 50 rubles, but in the version of the tariff before last it was 450).

• 550 minutes to all Russian networks (it was 600, but to numbers only in your region and MTS Russia)
  Unlimited calls to MTS Russia (over the package of minutes)
• 2 times more minutes when calling from MTS Connect (first the main package from the tariff is consumed, then the additional one, which is provided only through the application)
• 550- -SMS- -to all numbers in your region
• 5- - GB of Internet (in case of connecting/switching to - a new TP “Smart-” from March 27 to August 31, 2017, you will be provided with 5 GB of traffic without a time limit for using the tariff plan. Subscribers who have connected or those who switched to the new “Smart-” t-ariff after 08/31/2017 will be allocated only 3 GB of traffic).

The “-Smart-” tariff works without roaming throughout Russia, but if you use it outside your “home” network, you will be charged an additional monthly fee of 15 rubles. per day .

I was pleased to put the points of the tariff parameters in their place relative to their degree of importance. First minutes, and only then the Internet. No matter how much telecom operators would like to see the world differently, a telephone is, first of all, a voice, and only then additional services such as data transmission, albeit increasingly in demand for a variety of needs.

At the end of January 2017, the mobile operator Tele2 launched an exclusive opportunity to transfer the remaining minutes, messages and Internet traffic to the next month. The ability to transfer the balance of unused services allows the subscriber to use their phone more flexibly and purposefully and not overpay for communication.

Methods for connecting to the service

Many subscribers do not know how to activate the service for transferring package balances to Tele2 to the next month? This service available only to users relevant "Black" packages. When using another package or tariff that is already in the archive, it becomes impossible to activate this option.

The packages of the “Black” line already include automatically connected“remains transfer” service. The subscriber does not need to enter additional commands from the device to connect.

How to enable transfer of remaining traffic and minutes on Tele2? This becomes possible for Tele2 users by calling free short number 630 , where the subscriber will be asked to go and connect to favorable tariff from the “Black” family with an active balance transfer service. It is worth noting that the service “transfer of balances” is absolutely free.

For those who are not yet connected to an operator cellular communications Tele2, via online store you need to select the desired tariff package, or buy a SIM card at the salon yourself with active transfer of balances to Tele2 for the next month.

To view the balances on your package account, you can enter the following: USSD requests:

1. *155*0# and the call key - you will find out how many minutes are left.
2. *153# and a beep – the rest of the Internet traffic.
3. *155*2# and the voice call button – the rest of the SMS messages.

However, the user must find out exactly when the transfer of remaining traffic and minutes occurs (usually this happens at the end of the month).

Tele2 subscribers should know that the remainder of the package will be transferred to the next month, provided that there are enough funds in the account to carry out subscription fee. That's when all unused minutes, messages and megabytes will roll over to the next month and be added to the new services. However, the added balances will be the first to be used up in the current month.

The service for transferring remaining traffic and minutes on Tele2 applies to the previous period, but everything further expires. For example, a subscriber used only 100 out of 300 minutes, and then in the subsequent period, out of the remaining 200, 100 remained again, then these hundred minutes will no longer be transferred.

Also note that if you purchase additional traffic, these balances will not be transferred.

When using cellular communication services, the main thing we pay attention to is control over our own expenses. IN Lately mobile operators are releasing new, so-called unlimited offers. Subscriber going to this tariff, chooses a service package for himself based on his capabilities. New tariff from MTS called Unlimited is now one of the most popular offers. With all the advantages of the package, a future client of the company must know how to exchange minutes for gigabytes if they are used up prematurely or, conversely, if there is an excess balance of the connected number of services.

Transfer of the remaining number of minutes and Internet on the MTS “Unlimited” tariff

The tariff allows the subscriber to independently change the settings of the tariff package. Finding a good deal is not an easy task and can take several months. Therefore, the client needs to be aware of the transfer possibilities tariff services in the process of testing a new proposal. As for the balance of outgoing calls and SMS messages, the user should know how to check the minutes on MTS Unlimited without exceeding the size of the main package.

Here is a specific example of calculation in minutes:

1. the volume of the connected package is 550 minutes;
2. from the last billing period the amount on the account is 450 minutes, and they automatically roll over to the next month;
3. in total the subscriber has 450+550 = 1000 in his account;
4. this month 1000 minutes are available for use, without distinction between old and new;
5. this month the subscriber was on vacation and spoke only 100 minutes. with 1000 minutes available, that is, the amount will be 900 minutes;
6. in the new month only 550 minutes will be available;
7. in the next month (third) the remaining tariff will be 550 + 550 = 1100 min.

The rest of the Internet traffic is transferred to the next calendar period, but cannot exceed the amount of the main package and does not add up to it. When transferring Internet traffic to the next month, the previous balance is first considered, then the base tariff, after which the auto-renewal option is turned on.

Example:

1. Internet traffic volume is 5 GB;
2. the client has 4 GB of Internet traffic from last month, which transferred to the current month;
3. as a result, the subscriber has 5+4 =9 GB in the current calendar period;
4. in the current month, 1 GB of Internet was spent, then the old balance is 3 GB, and the current balance is 5 GB;
5. on new reporting period Only 5 GB will be transferred, the old balance will be frozen;
6. From the third month of use, the subscriber will be presented with 5 GB+5 GB packages.

Important! When using the auto-renewal function, tariff balances are not carried over to the next month. When connected mobile operator debits will be made for an additional package of services.

How to check the remaining minutes on MTS Unlimited

You can find out minutes on the MTS Unlimited tariff in the following ways:

• Using USSD dial. Dial the combination *217# on your phone and wait for the report in the response message.
• Using the personal account service. After entering the official website of the operator, go through authorization and receive all the necessary information.
• Sending an SMS message. Send a question mark to number 5340.

Attention! Using any method is not paid service, that is, it is provided free of charge.

Extending the number of minutes

The following offers are currently available:

• 200 min. for 150 rubles;
• 450 min. for 250 rubles;
• 700 min. for 450 rubles;

The function is also available in personal account and when calling a cellular company operator by phone.

Options for exchanging minutes for gigabytes on the Unlimited tariff

Some mobile operators have an interesting service - how to convert minutes to gigabytes MTS Unlimited. The idea itself looks very interesting. As for the tariff, this option will not work here. This initial tariff offer was conceived by the mobile operator as a constructor for selecting required characteristics, and you can change the number of minutes and Internet traffic at any time.
