Universal recipe for categorical backlog of mobile life - arranged themselves short vacation. 7-10 days - the most it, just manage to accumulate all sorts of hurt-unreached news. Period of more (two to three weeks) are treated much more simply: as the saying goes, "that fell from a cart, then disappeared, and wash up bones last year's snow still not interested. I'll try to briefly run through the major milestones of the new and omissions. Update corporate tariff lines Beeline
It's really fresh and interesting news, which still need to be carefully porazbiratsya. I understand that it is a partial revision of one of the fundamental principles of tariff policies for enterprise customers. From now on, calls to fixed phone numbers in enterprise mobility will be charged as calls to mobile numbers "of its" corporate parties. Allowance will be distributed including the challenges within the GBS (closed user group). Decision could be called quite revolutionary, if not for two small "but": direct local numbers should refer to numbering capacity Sovintel and be prepared for a corporate contract Beeline Business.But in any case the new principle of tariff integration of fixed and mobile looks very interesting and promising. Especially for companies that organize the structure of communication "from scratch". Private users of mobile and fixed networks such benefits is clearly not threatened, sorry. At least in the Beeline. But the dream of a "sweet couple" fixed / mobile in the form of some kind of comprehensive services to MTS / MGTS with a single account for all types of communications and ADSL-Internet would be quite possible, "identical" should be conducive to such integration. The more that was already a quasi-pilot project on this theme, the owners of residential phone offers match in the seven figures, federal facilities MTS.
He promised to spend the night at home - get married!
And the day "on the side of" Do not go - will punish their pocketbooks. This is a new format of the service "Unlimited Internet Night" in the MTS. The updated terms of connection with the act on August 2, the news-reading is a reminder, a description of services - here. Quote from the news:"Now pay for the service will be 250 rubles, and the monthly service fee of 450 rubles a month. The subscription fee will be charged the second day of each calendar month in full, regardless of the number of the account. If at the time of cancellation phone number is blocked, the monthly fee for the current month will be charged at the time of exit from the block. "
Used a scheme similar to working in the tariff plans "Connect". At the time of activation of the service is charged only connection fee (250 rubles)., The monthly fee for the current month is written off in full is strictly second of this month. We can say abonentka deducted at the already consumed the night GPRS-traffic 1 to 2 and the number of advance for the traffic that will be consumed with the 2-th of the end of the month. So, as you know, to connect the service to the 1 st or 2 nd number is definitely not recommended. Conversely, starting with the third number - it most. Service disconnection, as usual, is free.
A small incident in the description of services: Cost of subscription services - 250 rubles monthly service fee - 14.8 rubles per day.The subscription fee is charged second day of each calendar month in full, regardless of the number of funds in the account. " Whatever torment calculator at the stated fixed abonentke to 450 rubles. Daily fee 14.8 no vytantsovyvaetsya, still comes out "half rat. Whether the amount of 450 rubles. in the text of the news reported rounded "for ease of reading," or description of service forgot to correct (on the calendar - August 3). But it is a trifle, the discrepancy of plus or minus 9-35 rubles. per month.
Another small potential "ambush" awaits mobile Internet not only at night. It is clear that the service "Unlimited Internet for a day" is incompatible with "Unlimited Internet Night," and connecting "daily" internet-connected anlim earlier "night off the Internet, it is logical. "Ambush" is that when you connect daily anlim "Unlimited Internet Night" is not deactivated temporarily with a corresponding adjustment of fee, and is fully deactivated. Quote from the description of the scheme:
"... Service" Unlimited Internet access for a day "and" Unlimited Internet Night "- are mutually exclusive, ie if you have a service connected" Unlimited Night Internet ", then it shuts down when activating the" Unlimited Internet access for a day "and vice versa. To use the service is deactivated, you must connect it again. "
Total in bottom line: willed popolzovavshis unlimited mobile Internet not only at night (you never know what are the quirks), for a fun day we will pay 400 rubles. - 150 rubles. for daily GPRS-anlim + 250 rubles. for reconnection night GPRS-anlim. Why was piling up all these difficulties with antifrodovoy (250 rubles). Anlim cost connectivity night and blackout facilities instead of the daily adjustments abonentki while connecting anlim daily? Presumably, another manifestation of the phenomenon of the tail that wags the dog: a month is not only 30, but 31 days. And even - the horror! - Sometimes 28. A new superbillingu this calendar to explain the volatility of forgot he does not know how to divide a fixed monthly fee for a different number of days and shoot abonentku proportion to the number of days per month. CBOSS five years ago he could, but he is retarded and neprogressivny because of him and was abandoned in favor of a more quality product to its subsidiary. Or is it freshly bought platform Comwerse can not divide by 28/30/31? I honestly have all this iron zoo confused.
700 minutes per subscriber virgin-pure
The essence of marketing ideas - to entice to MTS subscribers of rival operators. For the first time in the history of "involve" party shares can only be a potential customer, before (in the last 190 days) is not served by the MTS. Ie it is not a vulgar new connection tenth or one hundred and fiftieth account SIM-cards on the same passport for statistical reporting, and on bringing the network is really a new client. Therefore, the relatively generous gift as "involve" and "attractive."Announcement of a new federal action "Plug friend and get 700 minutes" can be read here, a detailed description - here. Key quotes from the comments and clarifications:
"MTS is pleased to announce the launch of a new long-term campaign" Plug-friend and get 700 minutes. " All participants receive a share of 700 minutes of talk time for 10 months! "
"700 minutes of talk time" for a period of 10 months, mean 70 minutes of calls per month. Of course, strictly within the network within the home region, with someone else can "talk" to an MTS? Federal action and long-term, ie after 10 months you can try to find and connect one more person had not previously enjoyed the services of the operator.Problem not so easy, especially since many of the "Left" dealer connections on the photocopies of passports are not unaware of this "subscriber".
"Subscribers of the" Super Zero "," A lot of calls "," regional "," guest "," "we," "Cool," "Girlfriends," "prudent», «RED NEW», «Odin.RU" "Careful," "Super First", "Onlayner», «i-Onlayner", "MTS Connect-2», «SIM», «MAXI», «MAXI Plus», «MAXI Active» a unique opportunity to invite their friends to connect to any of the rates and make communication with each other even more profitable and long! "
Yes, yes! I want tomorrow to be directly involved and connected to the tariff «SIM», which is certainly one of the "all listed". Happen? Well, well ...
Go to the office for the invitation coupon does not necessarily enough to print an invitation and send it to him "attracted" to the nearest shop.
"Package" 700 Minutes "will be added daily connections to both subscribers of the coupon. Connect With The coupon may be a subscriber not served by a network of MTS for 190 days or more before the date of treatment. The cost of connection packets of 1 rub. VAT. "
With the conditional-ruble cost of connection is clear, the price of 1 ruble staged explicitly from billing considerations. But with a mandatory 190-day period the lack of institutionalized close relationship with the operator is much more interesting. For example, lying in my third year of inactive SIM-card, it is believed? On the one hand, after 244 days of his inactivity, I would not want to be like a call, quote: "... Failure to Face on the subscriber's account within 183 days after the expiration of the above 61-day term funds in an amount sufficient to achieve at the Personal Account of the positive residue, or non-subscriber fee-based services for a period equal to 183 days, will mean a unilateral refusal to perform the contract subscriber. On the other hand, the operator anywhere in the "Contract" is not obligated to consider such a waiver valid. Little or zakapriznichal moral and non-persistent caller, but suddenly changed his mind after a couple of years?
Q: Do I think in this case, "served in the MTS network? The issue is not abstract and theoretical, these dormant subscribers in MTS is likely to millions. Fortunately, a way to formally register a "divorce" there. To do this, visit one of the shop operator and arrange cancellation of all "stale" in the database of contracts. And two weeks later you can easily become "attracted" to go to the shop with the coupon and receive its 700 minutes of on-net calls. Case chore that requires some loss of time, but as compensation you can learn a lot about you connected to the contract and, if lucky, even get hold of donations with the balance furnished to you "Left» SIM-cards.
"Host and guest MTS can re-take part in the action and get a package" 700 minutes "after ten months since the previous service connection."
A little vague formulation. For clarity, could write: "Invited MTS subscribers can re-take part in the action, but only as a host."
"In case of change of party shares the tariff plan on any of the above monthly rates to provide bundled minutes continues. In the transition to a tariff, not participating in the action, further providing a package terminated, any unused minutes are not saved. "
Important remark. For example, in accordance with the description of the new tariff «RED Energy» in stocks is not involved in the transition to his gift minute void. I hope, will be void only prudent change of tariff, and not for the company and inviting.So to speak, on the principle of "you are responsible for those who are tamed."
End of "duet" of monogamy and call back?
A few days ago drew attention to a suspiciously quickly losing weight account balance MTS, began to study the details. Not for nothing did it again free of charge, welcome, sir. Discovered several interesting phenomena. Firstly, in some mysterious way I was able to use "Callback". How and when - have no idea in the Circuits over two days, like nothing new is discovered. But, judging from the line in the long run, you and I can expect service "callback". What is this "unknown to zverushka" - customer service is not up to date. Suggested that both display the usage of the service "Call Waiting", but this is unlikely, because all sorts of "waiting" with "conference" I have long been turned off as superfluous. Maybe we are talking about the service call by the called party? Such a service called "Call from his interlocutor," appeared this year in the Beeline, read about it here.The second surprise - the loose for some reason service "Duet". And the right would simply be a service has fallen off, so with it vanished and preferential tariffs within the billing «RED», calls for "double" room is now charged at a maximum rate. In the contact center at first pleased by the fact that "the best of my knowledge, the service" Duet "is disabled on July 18, but after consultations with the experts made it clear that we are talking only about the cessation of new connections to the service. That would be another site wrote about this, even though small shaped as letters in a note. On the second line of support for a permanent resolution vnikli, with errors in pricing agreed with me and promised to "connect". Perhaps, eventually decided not to get involved, well, okay. The main thing that let such a way that's exotic, but was told about the closing service "Duet" for new connections. A pity, until recently there was no hope for a "second life" services.
