In fact, the cost of services is high enough, even given the comfortable conditions for the user and flexible tariff plan settings. About him, by the way, nothing is reported on the company's website.

But it is known that the MTS network 800 access points to the Internet worldwide. At all there is one password and login, which will be provided to you as a subscriber of services.

Mobile Internet and its advantages

However, there are situations when we do not have the opportunity to go from the stationary point of the wireless Internet. For example, we travel around the country, away from Wi-Fi-routers, but we need to check the route through online cards. Of course, for such needs it will be solely mobile connection. It provides, for example, MTS. Roaming (Internet) abroad will cost more than within the country, but the quality of the service will remain quite high. You should not worry about the speed of connection. The main thing is to choose the tariff with which you would like to interact and configure it correctly.

Internet tariffs from MTS

In total, the mobile operator has three package services favorable for use. They are called "bits abroad", "super bits abroad", as well as "maxi bits abroad". Connection, working conditions, as well as limitations for each of these tariff plans differ in each other. We will tell you about each of these tariffs in this article in more detail.

"Bit abroad"

The easiest option to connect MTS-Internet abroad (reviews indicate that the most profitable) is the activation of this tariff plan. It provides for the volume of traffic in the amount of 30 megabytes per day at a cost of 300 rubles per day. This quota is distributed, according to the terms of service, the countries of Europe, the CIS, USA, Canada, China, Turkey and some others are popular for the domestic subscriber of the state. If the user of the service enters the territory of other countries (or is somewhere in the open sea), the amount of data decreases to 5 megabytes, and the cost increases to 1200 rubles per day. If you are planning to go to another state, obviously, use the service offered by MTS (Internet abroad).

How to connect the tariff "bit abroad" you can find out by going to the page on the company's website. It indicates that to activate you need to dial one of the commands: * 111 * 2222 # or * 212 #. In addition, you can activate the service using an SMS message 2222 sent to number 111, as well as using a subscriber online office. Validation occurs only if the user connects to the network.

"Maxi bits abroad"

The second largest data tariff plan is Maxi. Its conditions are the same as the previous one, the difference lies only how much megabytes at what price subscriber will be available. So, the mobile Internet abroad (MTS Maxi Bit) will cost 600 rubles a day for the first group of countries and 2,200 rubles in the event that the user leaves them limits. It gives a quota of 70 and 10 megabytes for spending, respectively. Connection is carried out using the * 111 * 2223 # command or through sending a message with numbers 2223 to 111.

"Super bits abroad"

The third batch tariff is "Super Bit" - is the most voluminous from the point of view of the transmitted traffic. On it, the Internet abroad (MTS is a service provider) will cost 1500 rubles per day to use the user from the listed countries, as well as 4,000 rubles for work on the network from the territory of other states. In this case, the amount of data is 200 and 20 megabytes, respectively.

You can connect this plan by sending a request * 111 * 2224 # or the message "2224" to number 111.

How to choose?

The choice of the tariff plan, with which you would be more comfortable to work, easy enough. Immediately need to decide on the aim of activating the service at MTS. Connect the Internet abroad simply enough, we have already written about it; Another thing is the feasibility of such costs. The cost of the third tariff plan is colossal. Most likely, you will have the opportunity to save by choosing an alternative network access to the network. Therefore, we draw attention to that why do you need to connect on your tablet or smartphone. Most often, MTS Roaming (Internet abroad) is taken for the simplest actions that are required away from stationary Wi-Fi networks: check mail, social networks, weather or navigator. For this, it is quite enough to be the minimum tariff - 30 megabytes per day. Yes, and the cost of it is adequate - 300 rubles.

If we talk about more volumetric plans, they will fit even to perform some work tasks when connecting from a laptop. However, does it make sense in acquiring such expensive tariff plans? It would be no easier to search the stationary Internet in the terrain where are you going to connect to it? It would be more reasonable, because MTS Internet abroad (tariffs that are provided for network connection from abroad) are too expensive.

As a last resort, if you really have the circumstances, when you need to throw a file with data on the Internet, the amount of which exceeds 30 megabai, and there is no civilization nearby, - connect to Maxi and "Super" reasonably. But you can choose between them, it is possible for the desired volume of traffic.

If not enough?

On the website of the MTS operator (the Internet abroad, the tariffs and conditions for its provision are described here) also have information with management on how to do, if the traffic allocated within the "bit" tariffs, as well as "Bit Super" and "Bit Maxi »Not enough for the user. Basic tariffs that operate within the country (for example, MTS Tablet) Internet abroad do not provide, so it is not worth counting on it.

In order not to go for a selected quota and not spend a lot of money, the operator offers a special service to each subscriber. It is called "Turbo Button". Its conditions are the same as the "BIT" plan (basic) - additional 30 megabytes of traffic are provided for 300 rubles per day. To activate this option on your phone, you must dial a combination * 111 * 485 #. Disable the service is not necessary, since its action will be discontinued during the day after activation, as well as if the transmitted volume of traffic was eventually exhausted.

In addition to these tariff plans, MTS provides users with more information on how to use the Internet in roaming is cheaper and more profitable.

For example, the operator recommends a pre-replenishment account in the amount you expect to spend in touch. It will save you from troubles like the fact that in the way it will be necessary to look for funds to replenish and spend your time. Even in MTS, it is recommended to connect the service "on complete trust". It allows you to use the mobile communication even in cases where there are no funds left on your balance sheet, thus in a negative value. Again, this will allow you to talk right away, but to pay for the services provided.

Also carefully attribute to the settings of your mobile phone. The operator recommends disconnecting the automatic setting of the operator so that the user thus does not lose money from the account if it was in the border zone, and the phone itself switched to roaming mode.

Finally, watching the balance and quantity of spent traffic, pay attention to current information about how much data you have spent. Do not forget that these data are updated with the delay, because additionally it takes time to provide a balance with foreign telecommunications operators of MTS. For this reason, do not hurry to resume a conversation or an online access session, if you are not sure if you have graspted the data packet or not.
