Reviews

Beeline's per-second tariff is widely known - there are many reviews on the Internet about the pros and cons of this option. Among the advantages are the absence of a subscription fee and the ability to receive incoming calls for free. In most cases, people are satisfied with the quality of communication. The main advantage of this option is the absence of rounding when paying for calls.

Among the reasons for refusing this option, people note:

• the habit of communicating on a cell phone without haste and saving every second;
• availability of payment from the first second of communication, even if it was not possible to establish a normal connection and the call ends almost immediately;
• the need to connect separately paid options to use mobile traffic;
• expensive calls to numbers that belong to other regions and operators.

A subscriber from Ufa in a review https://otzovik.com/review_3636486.html reports that “Secondochka” turned out to be not the best option for her. From her point of view, the tariff is not suitable for calls longer than a couple of minutes. The cost of a minute in Ufa is 1.8 rubles, which is comparable to many other offers from operators. User mastermiha wrote in a review https://otzovik.com/review_2472053.html that this Beeline offer turned out to be the most expensive of all those tested. He preferred Megafon's cheaper offers, where a minute of conversation is cheaper than 1.8 rubles. 2 – 3 times. A subscriber from the Ivanovo region in a review https://otzovik.com/review_4682182.html described how he uses a SIM card with this tariff plan. He considers it disadvantageous for outgoing calls, but convenient for receiving frequent calls. On the forum https://forum.mobile-networks.ru/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=780 it is discussed that cheap per-second payment for communications will not be profitable for operators. By law, such a tariff plan must be present, so currently all companies still have them, but they are too expensive.

The main disadvantage of the tariff is expensive Internet traffic: 1 MB will cost 10.95 rubles. If you need to access social networks, instant messengers, or download files, add 1.5 GB to your plan at the maximum available speed.

Cost of services

Within the tariff plan, when using paid services, for example, when an outgoing call is billed per second, a mandatory monthly fee for the tariff is not charged. If the client uses only free features of the offer, then the daily fee for the room will be 3 rubles.

Rates per second are valid only within your region; calls within Russia are charged per minute.

Internet

With modern devices, users constantly want to stay connected, not only to make calls, but also in applications that support an Internet connection. In the company's package offers, as a rule, the option is included in the subscription fee and does not require additional expenses.

Due to the fact that subscribers of per-second MTS are most often children and the elderly, standard tariffs imply a separate fee for the use of mobile traffic, since it is rarely used. The cost of 1 MB of data transfer is 9.90 rubles. and is written off only if it is connected and used.

Comparison with similar offers from other operators

MegaFon has the same “Per Second” plan. But the tariffs for calls, SMS and Internet traffic are different from what Beeline offers.

Beeline users can correspond for free in their home region when connecting to “My SMS” (without the option - 2.68 rubles). When sending messages to subscribers of other providers, 4.23 rubles are debited.

The cost of mobile Internet traffic for both operators is almost the same: for MegaFon 1 MB - 10.1 rubles, for Beeline - 10.95 rubles.
