Starting tariff "Smart Mini"

For new subscribers, as well as for those people who do not actively use mobile communication services, there is an inexpensive tariff from the “Smart” line. Its name is “Smart Mini”. The main parameters of this tariff plan:

1. A small package of Internet traffic. It makes you think about how to switch to the MTS Smart Mini tariff, as it allows you to communicate on social networks, send text messages through special applications, and check email. Sharing photos, listening to music and watching videos on this tariff is not very convenient, since when using the Internet in this way, the traffic quickly runs out.
2. A small package of free minutes for making calls to all networks in your home region and MTS Russia. There is no limit for calls to MTS numbers in your home region.
3. SMS package. Its size allows you to send almost 5 messages every day.

This tariff plan is not available in all regions of our country. For this reason, some subscribers may not look for an answer to the question of how to switch to the MTS Smart Mini tariff. You can find out about the possibility of connection in a specific region on the official website of the cellular operator.

Connection conditions

Before switching to a specific tariff, you must carefully read the basic connection conditions. These include:

The fee for calls in excess of the provided minutes is 3 rubles for SIM cards of other operators.
4. SMS messages over the package established by the terms of the tariff are charged at 2 rubles in the home region and 3 rubles for Russian SIM cards.
5. The cost of switching to a tariff plan is zero.

Not included in the tariff and paid separately

After the minute limit is exhausted, you will also have to pay for calls to MTS Russia numbers, here the cost is also 3.50 rubles per minute. The cost of calls to any numbers of Russian operators is 6 rubles per minute.

SMS messages are also paid after the main package is exhausted. The cost of one message sent in your home region is 2.10 rubles.

Rules for disabling the Smart tariff from MTS

If the subscriber realizes that the Smart tariff is not suitable for him, and he wants to get other conditions for calls and the Internet, then he should disconnect from it.

Many clients are sure that in order to switch to a new chosen tariff, they must disable the old one.

However, this is not the case, and in order to switch tariffs, you just need to select a new one and activate it, and the “Smart” tariff will cease to operate automatically.

Methods for changing the tariff include:

• disconnection via the “My MTS” application;
• call the operator and request to disable the current tariff;
• visiting your personal account and changing your tariff yourself;
• visiting the sales office of the MTS company and contacting an employee to help about.

Entering a command to switch to Smart tariffs

Using the command is another answer to the question of how to switch to the Smart tariff on MTS. The combination is always published on the operator’s official website. It is important to know that each tariff from the Smart line has its own command. For example:

• to connect to the “Smart” tariff, you need to dial *111*1024# and press the call button;
• to connect “Our Smart” you need to send a similar combination from your mobile device – *111*1025#;
• command for connecting “Smart Top” – *111*1026#, etc.

On tariff plans of the “Smart” line, you can also use one simple and convenient command – *100*1#. This combination is provided to obtain information about the remaining SMS message packages and minutes. To find out about the volume of Internet traffic, it is recommended to log into your personal account on the official website of the mobile operator or in the application.

Detailed conditions

Before activating Smart, you need to know the basic conditions for the tariff:

1. After “Smart” is activated, the full amount of the monthly payment is written off. Then the full amount is debited on the day of connection once a month. If the client's number is blocked, then debits from the mobile account will be made after its activation. For a whole month, if the SIM card has been blocked, no fee will be charged.
2. If the client connects or changes his number to a landline number, he is additionally connected to it. This service cannot be disabled; it can only be canceled if the number is changed to a federal one. Its cost is set at 304.80 rubles. When activated, the “City number” option will be automatically activated, that is, additional digits will be allocated for the number “495”.
3. Unused minutes and traffic do not carry over to the next month.
4. After the main traffic ends, the client will receive an additional Internet package of 500 megabytes in size for 95 rubles. In total, no more than 15 auto-renewals can be used per month.

Tariff features

The Smart offer is a prepaid plan with a fixed monthly fee.

Debit

When connecting to a tariff

The monthly amount is withdrawn at the time of activation of the offer or transition from another tariff. Immediately there is full access to all services provided by the package.

When using the tariff

The subscription fee is charged from the second month of using the plan and the package is updated on the date of connection or transition to the tariff. This happens every month. If there is no date for the completed connection in the next month, it is moved to the previous date. For example, if a person activated the tariff on March 31, the amount for the second month will be written off on April 30.

If the user's number is blocked, withdrawals are made after activation the following night. In this case, there is no charge for the month when the SIM card is not used.

Daily payment is available to subscribers. If there are not enough funds in the account to fully debit the monthly fee, money is charged daily at 9 rubles per day until the balance is replenished for a one-time withdrawal of the entire amount.

When the tariff is disabled

When disconnecting the service and switching to another plan, it is recommended to use up the volumes provided by the tariff. This is due to the fact that unused balances of the package do not roll over to the next month.

If the subscriber decides to unilaterally refuse services and does not replenish the balance, when the balance reaches zero or negative (up to -800 rubles), only incoming calls and SMS are available to him for 2 months. Then the number is completely blocked. The contract is considered terminated by the subscriber after 183 days if he has not used paid services.

But if after 150 days the account contains a positive balance (above 0.01 rubles) without using commercial options, the subscriber is transferred to the “Basic 092013” ​​tariff.

If a user of communication services connects or decides to change his number to a landline number, the “Unlimited call forwarding from a direct number” option must be activated. Its cost is quite high and amounts to 300 rubles. That is, incoming calls to a direct number are actually redirected to a federal one, which is why the fee is charged.

It is not possible to disable the option. Cancellation is carried out by abandoning the city number and switching to a federal one. In this case, redirection is not needed, and the subscriber is not charged.

Do unused minutes roll over to the next month?

Before activating an offer from MTS, it is important to familiarize yourself with its features:

• unused volumes of minutes, messages, network traffic in the current month are not carried over to the next;
• When changing the tariff, the remaining services in the package do not transfer to the new plan.

What happens when the traffic for a package ends before the end of the month

When the provided amount of network traffic, which is 3 GB according to the Smart tariff, is used up, an additional package is automatically provided. It includes 500 MB, its cost is 95 rubles.

The connection will be extended until the tariff package is updated. However, the additional 500 MB is activated no more than 15 times monthly. It is then possible to use the network using the “Turbo buttons”.

Additional packages are valid in all regions of the Russian Federation; the balance on them is not carried over to the next month.

To avoid connecting to the excess volume of 500 MB, you need to enter the code on your phone: *111*936#.

Calls to other countries

The MTS operator allows you to make calls from Kaluga to other cities of the Russian Federation and abroad. However, prices differ depending on the country of destination of the call:

• CIS - 35 rub. /min;
• Europe - 49 rub./min;
• Other countries - 70 rub./min.

A more accurate cost can be found on the operator’s website in the roaming section by entering the name of the tariff and the country where you want to call into a special form.

Reviews about the tariff

Paul. Moscow. 27 years

I switched to the tariff and they immediately charged me 200 rubles, but the terms and conditions said that the switch costs zero rubles. The “Everywhere at home Smart” function did not work and I was charged 450 rubles for 16 minutes of conversation, but other operators charged less: only 10. I tried this option in other tariff plans, and there were no complaints.

Andrey. Novosibirsk 25 years

I liked the “Smart” tariff because there are many minutes for calls, and it fits perfectly with the iOS system. There is a lot of traffic and enough for listening to music and viewing photos. I’m pleased, but it’s embarrassing that I had to spend time checking the remaining traffic, that is, calling the helpline and finding out the number. I recommend everyone to connect and try these conditions.

Elena. Samara. 29 years

Smart helped me out when going on vacation. I liked that even from other cities I can use a package of minutes on SIM cards. The only downside for me is that they charge for voluntary blocking after 14 days. Otherwise I liked everything.
