Tariff news in April

Tariff news in April Month has just begun, and we're already seeing a lot of interesting things. Announcement of a new line of corporate rates Beeline, announced on April 4, the output rate of the Free "MTS, some small but important changes in the existing proposals. Since the tariff news Beeline and MTS were interrelated, and we consider them together.

Preliminary information on the new line Beeline look here, all the figures and details are soon to appear on the site operator. Apparently, the new unified ruble line will replace the existing corporate rates, which will be closed to new connections.

Intriguing proposal - the so-called promotional fare "Talk to the benefit." The phrase "promotion" refers only to the terms of the connection (until August 1, 2007), the lifetime of the fare had time to connect is not limited. The name "Speak with the use of" a little puzzling, and hints at some kind of benefit communication on this tariff or useless chatter on the other, but let's not carp. Himself rate - continued well-proven line of "Simple Things" and "I want to say." The idea - first expensive minutes and then during the day, all local calls at a single extremely discounted price. In Tariff "I want to say" it's 5.95 now. the first 5 minutes and 0.60 rubles. sixth and all subsequent during the day. It is no secret that the tariff is very popular among business users because it perfectly fits the profile of the active business communication on weekdays. Let's see what came up in the "Speak with the use of" until we see an almost twofold (from 60 cents to one ruble) appreciation of preferential minutes. Perhaps the first "non-privileged" minutes to make cheaper? Such a course will transfer TA in the category "for middle-speaking", which is also good if the "I want to say" will continue as an alternative for many speakers. It is hoped that the monthly fee does not appear, since it would deprive the right rate of one of the key advantages.

The new tariff MTS "Free" is built on the same principle and is symmetric proposal. As a new "guest" MTS compared with the "Welcome" Beeline, prices are made more attractive than the existing proposals competitor, but not without a few tricks. According to preliminary data, the first six minutes will be charged at £ 5.00. and 0.50 rubles. seventh and all subsequent minutes of local calls during the day. Ie minutes at 15% cheaper than in Beeline, but to go to the "preferential" treatment to pay a "non-preferential" a minute longer. As a result, from October 1 rate of MTS will be a little better than "I want to say" Beeline, but not much. But by October 1 in the "free" is supposed nice bonus - promise a 50% discount (ie £ 0.25.) Minutes for soft, it looks tempting. Of the not very pleasant - 5 rubles per minute. for all calls to the regional MTS. Any pitfalls like not much, but information on the figures are preliminary, and a full description yet. For example, a tiny note, "second by second account of the first six minutes of talk" can dramatically degrade an attractive rate, we hope not to see anything like this.

Another interesting novelty - a tuning rate "Country in touch." Five days ago we suggested the reaction to the introduction of Beeline limit of 3000 minutes at the rate of MTS 'Business without Borders ", as we see, the reaction was followed instantly. The new version of TP Country in touch "was introduced exactly the same restriction in the 3000 minutes of long distance calls to Russia. It is possible that in the Beeline will not change the terms of the previously connected to the "Land in touch", arguing that the introduction of a new version of limitations is sufficient. In any case, the course is very timely: a week or so the organizers of the "alternative mezhdugorodki on TA" Business Without Borders 3000 minutes are exhausted, will billed calls to Russia and will be a question to find other options.

The descriptions of tariffs on the site appeared MTS Note: Rates are valid from April 2, 2007. Something has really changed. For example, the description of the tariff RED vanished into thin air service "Night Talk". Since the "holy place is never empty, looked forward to a new version of the service, and even the new tariff especially for night owls. Good news - the final and the indefinite extension of the service "Internet +", giving 50% discount on GPRS Internet for 50 rubles. license fee per month. Is very important for active mobile Internet users with smart phones in Moscow and Moscow region residents, while devoid of other options for connecting to the network. While the mobile Internet from a smartphone - a piece insidious, Nokia handsets and strive to connect through an access point, Wap, with consequent charging to 280 rubles. per megabyte. And if earlier it was enough to erase the Wap settings in your phone and nothing else do not worry, it is now "correct" settings are loaded into the machine automatically. And more recently, in MTS network like even notice Startup Wap-and MMS-profiles smartphones directly over the data network during the session GPRS Internet. Verify personally have not yet succeeded, but if this is true, then the service begins to resemble a game of cat and mouse game operators with subscribers.
