How to extend Internet on MTS: instructions for connecting additional traffic

Currently, MTS operator occupies a leading position in the market for providers of ]fast Internet to a private home[/anchor]. The company offers its subscribers a large selection of different tariff plans, which include different amounts of Internet traffic. But it happens that the allocated volume is not enough until the end of the tariff period. Therefore, it is worth finding out how to extend unlimited Internet for an MTS dacha. The operator offers many options for connecting additional traffic before upgrading your tariff package.

Conditions for receiving additional megabytes to your account

All subscribers, using any tariff package, can use not only the main network package, but also various special services. You can connect not only additional gigabytes, but also other functions. According to the standard conditions of any MTS operator package, you can add volume automatically after the end of the allocated limit. For most major plans, this option is inexpensive. For example, for the “Smart” tariff, adding 500 MB or 1 GB will cost from 75 to 160 rubles, depending on the selected tariff.

Regardless of which Internet tariff package in the Moscow region at the MTS dacha you are currently using, you have the opportunity to take advantage of additional options that allow you to automatically activate traffic in an amount from 500 MB to 1 GB. This service has a fixed cost, and if it is not needed, it can be easily disabled.

Those users who are satisfied with the provided monthly limit, or those who do not have enough volume in the additional offer, can remove the automatic renewal of traffic and can take advantage of other special features.

Automatic renewal of the Internet connection for MTS subscribers is valid only under the main tariff plan. The unused volume of the additional package does not transfer to the next month and “burns out” (debited from the account without compensation).

Alternative tariff plans

Another solution is to use a more capacious tariff with a larger volume of traffic. There are several of them in the MTS Smart line and among independent products:

“My Unlimited” – from 5 to 30 GB at the subscriber’s choice, regulated via personal account, monthly fee – from 480 to 1110 rubles/month.
“Hype” – 7 GB of total traffic plus a whole mountain of unlims for social networks, instant messengers, gaming services and online games. The monthly fee is 500 rubles/month.
“Our Smart” – includes 25 GB of traffic, monthly payment – 1000 rubles.
“Smart Top” – 20 GB for 1950 rubles/month.
“ULTRA” – 20 GB per month and premium service for 2900 rubles/month.

The tariffs also include packages of minutes and SMS. Connect the appropriate option through your personal account.
