tariff MTS "Smart Mini"... Initially, this tariff was advertised as very
beneficial for every novice user and ideal for
inactive subscribers on the Internet. However, things are not as simple as
the operator reports, since the available services and services can pass for
useful only at the beginning of the operation of the tariff plan, and then there is
detection of many pitfalls. Problems arise as with
using "Free" trafficand during conversations. Further
a description of the tariff plan, its main advantages and
limitations.

MTS Smart mini Tariff description

Subscription fee for MTS Smart mini

Starting from May 15, 2014, there is a uniform cost of the tariff plan in
200 rubles monthly (the first two months of work), and then there is
increase to 250 rubles. If the subscriber continues to use "Smart
Mini "as of 15.05.2014, then the service" Smart at home everywhere "
is completely free for him in the first two months, and then
billed at 50 rubles per month. Further increase occurs
only for 13 months, after which it will be necessary to pay 100 rubles
monthly.

Thus, if the subscriber does not know about the full functionality of this tariff
he needs to pay 400 rubles for the first two monthsand from the third
until the end of the year of operation - 300 rubles, after which
a stable payment of 350 rubles monthly... And it's worth saying
that the negative regarding the prices does not end there.

Mobile Internet on MTS Smart mini

The uniqueness of the system for providing mobile Internet traffic inside
the tariff plan is that in the first two months of the subscription
the board covers 1 GB, but after two months this volume will decrease by
50% (up to 500 MB). Unlike other tariffs based on work with
mobile Internet, when the provided traffic is exhausted,
not a decrease in the connection speed, but a complete shutdown of the service. When
if you wish to continue working, you must activate the "Turbo Button" service
or actually buy additional volume at the price of 75 rubles for 500 MB
or 200 rubles for 2 GB. To make matters worse, the plan is not designed for
work with GPRS packages.

And at this point, the negative moments are not over, since it is important
the moment in working with the provided traffic is what exactly
the device is used when connected to the mobile Internet. All
depends on the novelty of the device, but the developers of the tariff plan clearly do not
thought to take care of the comfort of subscribers with the latest devices on
iOS and Android platforms. Statistics show that similar devices
require up to 1 GB of traffic monthly and these are only average figures.
Accordingly, more active users will activate "Turbo
buttons "with regular consistency and replenish the budget of the cellular operator.

Tariffication of calls on MTS Smart mini

Telephone conversations are possibly one of the positive aspects of the tariff
plan, since no fee is charged in the home region, and
calls within the territory of the Russian Federation will cost a subscriber 1.5 rubles
in a minute. It should also be said that from 06.03.2014, when the
tariff current subscriber for "Smart Mini" is given a bonus in
the form of a free month of work.

"Smart at home everywhere"

This connected service reminds all "old-timers" of the cellular
operator MTS about a similar service - "Neighboring Regions". Seemingly,
that the additional charge for calling within one country is
already a relic of the past, but it was not there. The subscriber needs already from
the third month of using "Smart Mini" to spread in addition to
monthly fee of 100 rubles. The catch is that both
The prices for connecting this service do not please the user. Leaving for
the boundaries of the "home" region, the subscriber will call home at 8.89 rubles per
minute of conversation, and communication with the numbers of other Russian operators will be
cost 15 rubles every minute. Thus, due to the huge
payments by subscribers who have connected Smart at Home Everywhere are formed
low rates for calls in the "home" region. Also
Smart everywhere at home allows you to go online throughout
country. After all of the above, it's time to form
advantages and disadvantages of this tariff.

Main advantages of the MTS Smart mini tariff

Despite all the negativity of the above, the comparison between "Smart Mini" and
popular "Super MTS" will allow us to say that certain advantages have
of the described tariff are available. But, these advantages immediately kill any
hope for a bright future for subscribers who have connected "Smart mini". Rate
"Super MTS" is a guiding star for outgoing subscribers,
since 60 free minutes are provided daily for communication on
the territory of the "home" region and even for calls to some city
phones. Top-up in the amount of 300 rubles will provide the user
free calls throughout Russia. But the rates for the rest
directions are 2.5 rubles per minute, which is higher than those offered in
"Smart Mini" rates.

As for the mobile Internet, Super MTS offers 50 MB each
to each subscriber daily, and if the traffic ends, then
only the access speed decreases. So from the comparison
main characteristics, we can safely say that the benefits of "Smart
Mini "can only be traced by a person who is not burdened with the question of costs,
who absolutely does not care how much he spends on payment
mobile internet and communications.

Disadvantages of the MTS Smart mini tariff

All negative aspects of tariffication and service provision are described above,
but there is a problem at the stage of connecting to the "Smart Mini". The first
the queue kills any hope for the honesty of the subscriber's work and
mobile operator what user agreement when connecting
"Smart Mini" is crammed with the same "pitfalls" about which
said at the very beginning. MTS easily bypasses
legislation of the Russian Federation regarding the need to allocate
for the client, all notes and footnotes in such a way that they are
readable. Now, instead of stars and small print, a new one has been invented
Laz: a dull gray of note text on dazzling white
screen, making it virtually unreadable.

To study in detail the information about the tariff plan on the site
the mobile operator MTS must carefully follow the
all the pages of the portal and "unearth" the corresponding PDF file there. On
surface, only a motley one is visible about bonuses, promotions and
the positive aspects of the tariff are advertising. By opening this or that link in
beautiful description of the tariff plan, the user will stumble upon
abracadabra from complex terms and various monetary amounts.

Outcome

It is highly recommended that all users remember the adage: "Free cheese is only in a mousetrap!"... Study all
documentation related to the operation of any tariff plan and
operation of any paid and, more importantly, the so-called
"Free" services. Good luck, be careful and don't
victim of legal scammers!
