Today there are few people who continue to use home telephony services. Mobile communications have become more accessible and are therefore in great demand.
However, for office work you may need a landline phone. For example, it provides this opportunity to its subscribers. The landline number is connected to the mobile number. This number itself is very short, that is, it can be easily and quickly remembered.
This option is most often used by businessmen who do not have their own office, as well as a regular landline telephone.
Let's look at the service in more detail. We will also describe how you can connect and how to disconnect Megafon’s landline number.
Description on Megafon
“City number” is additional to a regular mobile number. Thanks to it, the subscriber calling you will no longer have to dial eight with the operator code; he only needs to dial numbers without specifying eight and the code. The option is most useful in business. After all, clients who have been in this field of activity for a long time have a habit of trusting companies with city numbers. Now you don't need to install a landline phone.
Additional digits work with the same SIM card as your mobile. You can receive incoming calls and SMS messages. But you need to make outgoing calls from your main phone. In this case, the person you are calling may see city numbers on their screen.
Who benefits from it?
This service is beneficial for business implementation, since short numbers are always easier to remember. For regular customers and partners, this moment is key. However, individuals also use this service, as a rule, it is necessary for remote work or mobile office employees.
It is important to take into account that when using a landline number, the following services become unavailable:

Connecting an additional Megafon landline number is the best option for creating a home office or creating a separate line for your work process. Many Megafon clients have already appreciated this advantage. More detailed information can be found on the official website, or when registering at any operator’s office.

To connect it, you need to visit the Megafon office or use the “Personal Account” on the operator’s website. You can also contact support specialists. To do this, you need to call the toll-free number 0500. You can also dial 8800 5500 500 from a landline. In this case, the call will also not be charged.

As for prices, they differ. The cost depends on the category of the number: silver, gold, simple and on the number capacity, that is, the numbers with which it will begin.

No monthly fee.
Don't you talk on the phone that much? Or do you need a pensioner plan? Especially for you, we have prepared a review of three tariffs without a subscription fee.
The most profitable for calls “Go to zero”.
“Per-second”, as you will see from the tables, has only a name. In fact, you are charged per minute of call, so it is not very profitable. Are you only interested in pay-per-megabyte internet? Pay attention to the tariff "Megafon-Online"
Go to zero.
There is no subscription fee. In the table below you can see that calls at this tariff are very profitable. To Megafon Moscow numbers, 1 minute of call costs 1.2 rubles.
If you communicate no more than 3-5 minutes a day, in total you will pay from 108 to 180 rubles per month.
If your relatives or friends use another telecom operator, the tariff becomes less profitable. By communicating from 3 to 5 minutes a day you will spend from 135 to 225 rubles per month. If communication is more than five minutes a day, look at other operator tariffs with service packages.

#Hello
This offer is designed for guests of the region. Tourists will be able to receive special conditions from the company and comfortably use all the necessary services. Fixed fee – 750 ₽ for two weeks. In exchange, the client is provided with:
- Free calls to Megafon.
- 30 minutes to other phones and some international destinations.
- 30 GB for online services.
- Unlimited social networks and instant messengers.
- SMS within the Russian Federation – 4 rubles.
Second-by-second
I categorically do not recommend this tariff plan for those who like to save money. See for yourself:
They offer you per-second billing, but you pay for minutes of conversation. There is no way to talk for 5 seconds and end the conversation. This tariff will not suit your elderly parents, especially if they live in another region. A minute of call can cost up to 13 rubles. Internet is also expensive. You can hope for cheap SMS. But they don't exist either. SMS to local numbers costs 1.95 rubles - that's not cheap. Have you decided to write to your grandchildren in another region? 3 rubles from you. Expensive tariff is not for everyone.
