The choice of a mobile operator's tariff plan directly depends on your priorities and what you use the most - calls within the network, calls outside the region or country, SMS / MMS or the Internet. Correct prioritization will help you choose the best rate.
Instructions
Step 1
Visit the websites of the four largest mobile operators in Russia: - Beeline (www.beeline.ru)
- Megaphone (www.megafon.ru)
- Mobile TeleSystems (www.mts.ru)
- Tele 2 (www.tele2.ru). Before there how to choose the section "Tariffs", select your region and region (city), because in different regions the cost of similar services is different
Step 2
Now you need to decide who you are calling and how often. If you call to one single operator - within the network, an on-net tariff or a tariff with unlimited communication within the network will suit you, if you speak for a long time. The need for calls to all directions provides for the existence of tariffs with a single cost of a minute of conversation for subscribers of all operators. Please note that if only one or two acquaintances use another operator, it will be easier to activate the "Favorite Number" service, which gives a discount on calls to a certain number.
Step 3
If you often leave the borders of the region in which you live or the country, see how much a minute of conversation in roaming costs, and whether roaming services are suitable for this tariff - discounts for calls to home. Also, if you call landline phones, pay attention to the cost of a minute of conversation with a landline number.
Step 4
If you speak for less than a minute (short calls), a tariff with a per-second call rate will suit you. If you can talk with one subscriber for 30-40 minutes or more, a tariff with an expensive first minute and cheap subsequent ones will suit you.
Step 5
For active Internet users, you need to decide for what purposes and for what purpose you use mobile traffic. To view the weather and update mail or social networks 2-3 times a week, a tariff with a low cost per megabyte of traffic is suitable. If you are going to use your smartphone as a computer: download large files, watch videos on YouTube, play online games - you need an unlimited tariff or a tariff with a large amount of traffic, for example, 4 GB / month.
Step 6
There is also such an additional option as traffic packets. For example, for the N-th amount of rubles, you will be given 100, 300, 500, 1000 or another number of megabytes for a period of 30 days.
Step 7
Lovers of messages know that there are tariffs on which after 5, 10 or 20 SMS per day the next SMS (or MMS) become free or the subscriber is given a bonus in the form of points, extra minutes or messages.
Step 8
Also pay attention to tariffs with a monthly fee - perhaps it is better and more profitable to buy a SIM card "All at once" and not think about the costs of calls and traffic, but only replenish your account once a month.
