What to do if the option does not connect

MTS has created its own software to make all transactions comfortable and quick. But sometimes there are failures in its work. If the option is not activated, it is better to wait and try again after a few minutes. If the procedure is refused again, most likely there are simply not enough funds in the client’s account. The service is activated only with a balance of 30 rubles or more.

If the service is not activated even with a positive balance and repeated attempts, call the MTS subscriber center by phone 0890 (for MTS subscribers the call is free), following the instructions on the answering machine, switch to a specialist and inform him about the difficulties encountered in connecting. A specialist will help solve this problem.

Sending a message to the MTS operator

Disabling via SMS is also available around the clock. You can make a request in any region and it will be completely free.

• Open the message dialing menu, enter the phone number 111 in the recipient line, and 33330 in the text window and send.

Literally in a few seconds, in a maximum of a minute, a response SMS will be received from the operator informing you that the option is disabled for your number.

Please note that if you do not receive a response message, it is best to repeat the request again after a few minutes, since the service may not be deactivated and the tariff will continue to apply.

How to disable

1. Through your Personal Account on the official website of the mobile operator, where in the “Tariff Plans” section the option is selected and deactivated;
2. By sending an SMS with the text “33330” to the short number 111;
3. Using the USSD request: *111*3333#, then you need to select the option to disable the service in the window that appears. The deactivation fee is not charged, but when it is reconnected, it is charged again.

Pros and cons of the service

We list several advantages of this roaming service:

• the cost of outgoing calls is 3 rubles per minute;
• 100 free SMS to all Russian destinations daily;
• daily subscription fee is 5 rubles anywhere in the country.

The service is activated only on several tariff plans:

• Red Energy;
• "Super MTS";
• "Your country";
• "Super Zero";
• "Second-by-second";
• "Guest".

Note! The previously described function “Everywhere at home” is not activated on the listed tariffs.

“Russia is like home everywhere” is not compatible with convenient travel offers, for example, “United Country” and “Favorite Region”, so before making a request, consult with a specialist at the MTS office or Call Center by calling 0890.

Connecting the option “Everywhere at home Russia”

The option is beneficial for people going on a short trip and planning to have short conversations with family and write SMS to them. To enable the function you need:

• enter USSD command: *111*528#;
• use your Personal Account on the operator’s website;
• download the “My MTS” application and connect the option through its menu.

Activation of “Russia is like home everywhere” is free. The methods for disabling the option, including a special command, are completely identical to those listed.

Estimated cost

The following prices have been established:

1. · to activate the service you need to pay 30 rubles;
2. · daily payment is 7 rubles;
3. · disabling the option is free of charge.

Such conditions are available to users who managed to activate the option after November 7, 2014. To switch to the conditions described earlier, you will have to activate the option again.

To verify that the service is active now, perform the following steps:

1. a personal account opens;
2. A message is sent to contact number 8111.
3. The function is not compatible with other roaming services, such as “Single Country”, “Favorite Region”, etc.

Unlike its two predecessors, similar in name, the option does not have a daily subscription fee, and the essence of its work is completely different. It is necessary for using roaming calls, SMS messages and the Internet on the terms of your home city or region. As an example, we will tell you how this service works on the Smart Mini tariff plan.

For Smart Mini owners the following is provided:

• free outgoing calls to MTS numbers in any region;
• all incoming calls are free of charge;
• 250 minutes to other operators in the country;
• 250 SMS messages to any Russian phones;
• 1 GB Internet.

So, by taking advantage of the “Smart Everywhere at Home” offer, the client forgets about roaming within the network. After all, no matter what locality he arrives in, the tariff conditions will be the same. Such comfort, naturally, requires payment, so the monthly subscription fee is 100 rubles, however, money is not debited from the account for connecting the service.

This offer is not valid for all MTS tariffs. For example, users of the most popular tariffs in the Smart line: “Smart Unlimited”, “Smart Nonstop”, “Smart” cannot afford to connect this option.

To find out for sure whether you can activate “Smart Everywhere at Home” on your number, contact an MTS consultant by calling 0890. Also keep in mind that in Magadan, Norilsk, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug and Yakutia, Internet traffic speed drops to 128 Kbps.

Connection

Activation of the offer is carried out using:

1. Dial the digital combination: *111*3333#, after which the user should receive an SMS message about connecting the option.
2. Send SMS messages to number 111 with the text: “3333” (the text is sent without quotes).
3. A personal account on the website of the MTS operator or a special application for mobile gadgets “My MTS”. In both cases, you need to open the “Service Management” tab and choose the one you are interested in.
4. Company consultant. To do this, call the Call Center at 0890, wait for the employee to respond and voice your request for connection.

The procedure is also carried out in MTS salons upon presentation of a passport and the telephone number to which you need to install the option. As soon as the request is implemented, the client will receive a notification via SMS. The main thing is that the account contains at least 30 rubles.

The “Everywhere at Home Smart” tariff add-on cannot be activated using bonus points. They can simply be used to save personal money while roaming.

To disable the offer “Smart is at home everywhere”, you can use all of the listed methods used during activation, with the only difference that the SMS to number 111 will contain the text: “33330”.
