To begin with, when considering this proposal, it should be noted that, despite the extensive list of its conditions, “Internet M” is not a tariff, as many subscribers believe, but only an additional service aimed at diversifying and optimizing the tariff plan used.

Internet M package from MegaFon: detailed description
The Internet M package is available for smartphones, tablets and modems on all tariff plans. For smartphones it’s just an Internet package, for tablets it’s an Internet package and several unlimited services where traffic is not charged, and for modems it’s an Internet package and unlimited access to several cloud storages.

The conditions for the MegaFon M Internet option are as follows:
p, blockquote 6,0,0,0,0 —>
- Amount of traffic provided: 12 gigabytes per month of use, plus unlimited access to services on tablets and modems;
- Speed restrictions: no (may be observed depending on the quality of network coverage);
- Validity of the offer: the entire territory of Russia;
- Free 2 films per month on MegaFon.TV.
Cost of using the service: 550 rubles per month in Moscow and from 450 to 500 rubles in the regions (check on the operator’s website);
However, from August 15, 2021, the operator increases the cost of using the package by about 8%, and does this in a very cunning and non-obvious way. I'm telling you:

From August 15, 2018, the subscription fee for using the option does not change, only it will be charged not monthly, but once every 4 weeks. It seems like a few days a month, but over the course of a year it turns out that it’s not 12 times the monthly subscription fee, but 13. Voila, no fraud.
How is the service related to MegaFon?
Since January 2021, part of the shares in the Start video service has been pledged to MegaFon’s subsidiary, MegaLabs, Kommersant wrote. The company provided funding to Start “to increase production of original content,” a representative said.

A MegaFon representative denies that the deal is related to collateral - a possible failure to comply with conditions on the part of the borrower. He insists the company is operationally profitable and “exceeds our most ambitious expectations.” “There would be no difficulties in covering this financing. We have been successfully cooperating with Start for a long time, so we made a joint decision to include MegaFon among the holding’s shareholders,” he noted.
The companies did not disclose the cost of the deal.
A source in the online cinema market estimated the cost of Start at between 6 billion and 8 billion rubles, that is, 33.8% could cost the operator 2–2.7 billion rubles. However, TelecomDaily CEO Denis Kuskov considers the estimate of the share in the service at 1.5 billion rubles to be optimistic.

Test #1: Office Savior
Being left without communication in the middle of a working day is brrrrr, it’s scary to even think about. The task of Lifehacker HR Director Maria Nikolaeva is to come to the aid of colleagues from the Ulyanovsk office and distribute the Internet to them. Will MegaFon cope with this challenge? Let's see!
Maria Nikolaeva
I’ve been at MegaFon for a very long time—I don’t even remember how many years it’s been, but definitely more than five. I usually use mobile Internet wherever there is no Wi-Fi: on the street, at a party, in a cafe and in the gym. It happened that I distributed it to my laptop and worked if for some reason there was no Internet at home or in the office. We decided to simulate approximately this situation during the experiment - before the pandemic, in our Ulyanovsk office, the Internet actually sometimes disappeared.
Five Lifehacker employees took part in the challenge: an accountant, an SMM manager, a distribution manager, an HR manager and me. My requirements for Internet speed are modest - the main thing is that I can access sites with vacancies, work with mail, Google Docs and instant messengers. But speed is important for our SMSers, because they constantly create posts and upload pictures. Everything was fast and without delays, even taking into account the fact that I distributed the Internet to five devices at once.
I tried to download an application to measure the connection speed - although it didn’t work instantly, it did it in half a minute. We worked in this mode for about an hour and a half - then I had to go to interviews, so I had to finish the tests. However, there was enough time to evaluate the quality of the connection.
Description of service
The developers adapted the option for various devices for the convenience of subscribers: smartphones, modems, tablets, Wi-Fi routers. As part of the option, the company's client is offered 16 gigabytes of high-speed traffic allocated for a month. When the received package is used up, users can take advantage of additional offers from the Megafon operator - “Extend the Internet”, which, if necessary, provides the subscriber with an additional 70 MB, 1 and 5 GB.
A user who has purchased a tariff plan receives additional services from the provider - 2 films from Megafon.TV and a whole package of TV channels.
You can monitor the consumption of available traffic through the Personal Account of the subscriber number - Service Guide, which reflects the status of the balance and tariff plan, or through a special USSD request *558#.
Note! The peculiarity of “Internet M” is that the purchased traffic package is divided into two equal parts - 8 gigabytes each. The first half is intended for use during the day from 7.00 to 00.59, the second - at night from 1.00 to 6.59.
Possible difficulties and solutions
Common difficulties encountered with not connecting to the Internet on the phone, disabling paid subscriptions, etc. The fastest way to resolve this is by calling 0500. Some of the popular questions and answers to them:

Some applications running over the Internet require a real, albeit dynamic, network address. To solve the problem, the Megafon operator created the “Dedicated IP” package. After connecting the option, the client receives an address through which he can enter a secure corporate network.
For using the function, the operator charges a daily fee. The service is available to residents of the Moscow region. Subscribers from other areas are advised to contact company representatives to clarify information about the availability of alternative functions.
How to connect
Clients who decide to use dedicated network addresses can independently enable the function. To activate the package you need:
- Go to the official web resource ru. On the service description page, enter your phone number;
- Connect to your personal account. In the settings, find and activate the option;
- Call the contact phone number. A call center employee will help you enable the function.
For activating the functionality, a commission of 236 rubles is charged.
