MTS hype watch movies without traffic. MTS made video traffic unlimited


You can subscribe to the “Hype” tariff from September 7. The subscription fee for new clients is 12.33 rubles per day. From the second month, money begins to be debited monthly at 370 rubles. For MTS clients, switching to the Hype tariff from another tariff is free of charge. In this case, a subscription fee of 370 rubles will be charged.

The “Hype” tariff includes:

  • Unlimited Internet on popular social media, messengers, music services, downloading from game resources and most importantly, unlimited viewing of videos from YouTube.
  • 7 GB is provided for other Internet resources.
  • Unlimited calls to MTS numbers home region and MTS Russia.
  • 100 minutes for calls to numbers of other operators cellular communications in your region.
  • 200 SMS to all networks in your area.

The main disadvantage of the “Hype” tariff is small volume calls to phones of other operators, only 100 minutes. And that is not all. Absolutely anyone outgoing call counts towards the main package. That is, a call to an MTS subscriber is also taken into account and deducted from 100 minutes. Therefore, in reality there are very few minutes for conversation. After the main package is exhausted, calls to MTS subscribers will be unlimited, and calls to other cell phones in your region will cost 2 rubles per minute of conversation.

The second disadvantage of the “Hype” tariff. The 200 SMS package does not include outgoing messages to other regions and costs 2.8 rubles.

Another disadvantage of the new tariff is an additional fee of 15 rubles per day if you use the tariff outside your region. But if you are in another region and do not use the Hype tariff, then no fee will be charged. Therefore, I recommend connecting the “All Russia” option for 100 rubles.

The fourth disappointment for owners of the Hype tariff is the complete burning of all remaining traffic. That is, megabytes, SMS and minutes are not transferred to the next month.

And the last disadvantage will be the ban on use in a modem. If the SIM card is installed in the modem, mobile operator will restrict Internet access.

The “Hype” tariff is tailored for the Internet and provides unlimited Internet access to the most popular resources. Competitors on this moment this tariff does not have. This tariff is not suitable for calls, so you can use a second SIM card from another operator for calls, with cheaper outgoing calls.

Good afternoon

"Unlimited Video" service from MTS is quite stupid and has many limitations. But some people will certainly find it useful.

Connection conditions

Subscription fee for "Unlimited video" service - 7 rubles per day. The service works on any tariff plan(including archived ones), but subject to the availability of any Internet package. Such a package can be included in the tariff, or connected separately (group of BIT options). The service works great with the “Smart for Friends” tariff.

The service is available in all regions of Russia, except Far East: Republic of Buryatia, Republic of Sakha Yakutia, Primorsky Territory, Khabarovsk region, Amur Region, Irkutsk Region, Kamchatka Region, Magadan Region, Sakhalin Region, Trans-Baikal Territory, Jewish Autonomous Region, Chukotka Autonomous Region.

  • “Tariff” from MTS - features and nuances of the tariff with unlimited Internet

    • Sites and services where video is unlimited

    WITH "Unlimited Video" service you can almost unlimitedly watch any videos on YouTube, VKontakte and Odnoklassniki (ok.ru), use paid services(a subscription to them must be purchased separately) Megogo, IVI and TVZavr, as well as watch the broadcast of the first channel and Match TV.

    Disadvantages of the "Unlimited Video" service

    Let's start with the most serious drawback: despite the name, you won't be able to watch videos completely unlimited. When using the service, only the traffic of the video stream itself is not taken into account, but in addition to this, there is also other technical traffic. And it will be deducted from your Internet package, as before. If you are going to watch videos every day, then be prepared to spend 1-3 gigabytes from the main package per month. And if the main package is completely used up, then you won’t be able to watch unlimited videos either.

    The second drawback, but no less important, is that there is a limitation on video quality. The service allows you to watch video quality no better than 360p. A video in this quality will look great on a phone, but even on a tablet this quality will be lacking. If we talk about tablets with large screens, computers and televisions - watching videos on them in this quality will be uncomfortable.

    Eventually

    The service will be useful only to those who watch a lot of video from their phone and who do not have home Internet. For others, it is very doubtful. The limitations make it practically useless.

    New "Unlimited Video" option available to the general public. For a few rubles of subscription fee per day, video traffic from a number of resources will not be charged.

    For now, the option is not available to everyone, but only to residents of the Ryazan, Belgorod, Smolensk and Voronezh regions. However, after testing, the service can be extended to the rest of the country. Connection is free, the subscription fee is three rubles for Smolensk and Voronezh, and seven rubles for Ryazan and Belgorod. The reason for such a noticeable difference in price is not reported. The validity period of "Unlimited Video" is unlimited; you can connect both through your personal account and through the USSD command at any mass tariff (except for corporate ones). You can use the option throughout the entire country, except for the regions of the Far East.

    As MTS Product and Services Development Director Dario Betti explained, in currently Video accounts for about half of the company’s total data traffic, and its share is growing every year. Therefore, the operator is building its networks in the expectation that in the future, watching video will be one of the main needs of users.

    List of resources whose video traffic is not charged:

    • YouTube
    • VKontakte Video
    • IVI Video
    • KHL Video
    • Zoomby
    • RuTube Video
    • Amediateka

    As is clear from the description, the option is intended for those who are used to consuming a significant amount of video traffic and at first glance seems worthy of connecting. But after looking more closely at its parameters, you notice that in reality it is not only useless, but can potentially bring nothing but losses.

    Firstly, “Unlimited Video” is only valid when connecting to any other Internet option. Naturally, for a fee. Secondly, only video traffic is free - everything else will be deducted from the main package or debited directly from the account. Including navigation traffic on “free” resources. Thirdly, video parameters are limited to almost minimal values: maximum resolution will be 360r, and maximum speed- 1.2 Mbit/s. Finally, if in Smolensk and Voronezh a month “Unlimited video” costs 90 rubles, then in Ryazan and Belgorod you will have to pay 210 rubles. This is not just an extortionate price, it simply does not make any sense, since for the same or less money from competitors you can connect to a full-fledged unlimited service, without any restrictions. And it’s much more convenient to buy “Smart Unlimited” from MTS itself for 12.9 rubles per day. It will be more expensive, but there are no restrictions, plus packages of minutes and SMS.

    Thus, in reality, it turned out as usual: a tempting offer is designed to lure money out of inattentive users who are tempted by the cheapness. Well, or those who on the Internet, besides videos on a smartphone (since the 360p quality on a tablet is simply eye-opening), really don’t watch anything else.

    MTS introduced tariff option for unlimited mobile access to video services YouTube, VKontakte, Ivi, KHL, Zoomby, NTV, RuTube and Amediateka. This was reported by "" with reference to the representative of the operator Dmitry Solodovnikov. Its price is 3 rubles. per day, that is, about 90 rubles. per month, subscribers will connect it themselves.

    On streaming video accounts for about half of the traffic passing through MTS networks, that is, in fact, the subscriber spends half of his traffic package on video, he argues. Since the beginning of this year, MTS has not disclosed its average monthly revenue per subscriber (ARPU). According to the calculations of Telecom Daily CEO Denis Kuskov, in the third quarter of 2016 this figure was about 375 rubles. Thus, unlimited access to video services can increase the ARPU of MTS subscribers who actively use them and have activated this option by 24%, he believes.

    It’s not just MTS that is trying to earn extra money from unlimited Internet access. From November 1, 2016, Beeline introduced an option on tariffs of the “All” family free access To LTE networks. It turns on automatically after the subscriber has downloaded 10 MB of data for free via the LTE network. The option can be disabled - then Internet traffic will be consumed within the limits of the selected tariff package. The first two days the option is free, and then the operator will charge the subscriber 3 rubles. per day - that is, a monthly subscription also costs about 90 rubles.

    If we compare the options of MTS and Beeline, then Beeline’s offer seems more profitable: the subscriber receives free traffic to access any resources, and not just several media services selected by the operator.


    It is more expedient to introduce a special tariff for certain types of content than to zero out the cost of access for a particular technology: 2G, 3G, LTE, Solodovnikov claims. MTS also had tariffs with unlimited access to LTE, but then she decided to abandon them, he says. This practice can result in uncontrollable expenses for the subscriber - for example, when he, while watching a video, without noticing it, moves from the coverage area of ​​the LTE network to 3G.

    On all “heavy” package tariffs, Tele2 provides subscribers with free access to social networks and WhatsApp, mobile applications Tele2 TV (including free viewing 50 TV channels) and Zvooq, the operator’s representative Konstantin Prokshin lists.

    Megafon subscribers have access to the free Megafon.TV application, which is used by more than 1.5 million subscribers, said its representative Yulia Dorokhina. For subscribers of the “All Inclusive” line, the traffic of this application is not charged: in it they can watch for free not only 50 TV channels, but also from one to four films monthly (depending on the tariff), she notes. Also in the Megafon.TV application, subscribers can watch Amediateka and Russian TV series, adds Dorokhina.

    On Monday MTS launched new tariff"Hype." Positioning it as special offer with free traffic included for a dozen services, including social networks and YouTube, the operator did not advertise several important points. After concerned readers wrote to us, we decided to conduct our own testing of the tariff, and this is what happened.

    Free services don't work for free

    The “Hype” tariff includes 7 gigabytes mobile traffic. At the same time, it is not spent on the services “VKontakte”, “Odnoklassniki”, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Skype, WhatsApp, Viber, Snapchat, MTS Music, Apple Music, Google Music, Yandex.Music, ZVOOQ, Shazam, YouTube, Apple Store, Goole Play, Twitch, MTS Connect and the games World of Tanks, World of Warships, World of Tanks Blitz, War Thunder, Tanki X and Tanki Online, The Division, Rainbow Six: Siege, Skull and Bones (2018).

    However, as soon as the 7 gigabyte quota ends, the subscriber is disconnected from mobile internet at all. Only the page remains accessible personal account(the “My MTS” application also does not work), on which it is proposed to top up the balance (why?). It turns out that free services They don't work for free, you have to pay for them.

    Most subscribers, by the way, will not notice this cute prank of the operator. After all, by default all subscribers are connected to the service “ automatic renewal Internet". You cannot disable it, but you can activate the “cancel” service additional internet" Why is this done? Because, knowing about this method of taking money, subscribers first rush to look for this service in the list of connected ones. Then you need to go to the all services section and enable “disconnect”. This trick helps MTS maintain a fairly high percentage of subscribers with automatic renewal.

    By the way, the cost " additional package» - 95 rubles for 500 megabytes. True, you still won’t be able to spend more than 1,425 rubles; MTS, from its master’s discretion, has set a barrier of 15 connected packages.

    Free apps aren't that free

    You will say: “well, okay, I won’t spend the Internet package, because free applications are enough for me.” And this is a completely reasonable argument. Until you read footnote 2.2 in the rules of the “Hype” tariff, which says what does not fall under “free traffic”:

    • built-in third party resources(YouTube, RuTube, Vimeo, Yandex.Maps, etc.);
    • push notifications
    • at automatic updates software or background work other applications
    • when downloading applications from the Windows Store
    • when using services through Opera browser, as well as any other browser in data compression mode (traffic compression)
    • when accessing the Internet via a WAP access point (wap.mts.ru)
    • when using the mode private browsing(incognita)

    In other words, all “free” applications will use quite paid traffic from the package. And if you are used to not limiting yourself in anything, then you will have to fork out more. MTS doesn't like thrifty people.

    How to punish MTS?

    Punishing MTS turned out to be as easy as shelling pears. Turns out, starter pack The Hype tariff costs only 300 rubles. The daily subscription fee is debited from this until the start of the new period. You have at least a few days to take advantage of 7 gigabytes of traffic and 200 voice minutes. After which you can safely throw away the SIM card and go get a new one. Migrant workers, fans of “black telephone exchanges” and other fans of operator fraud will appreciate such generosity on the part of MTS.

    UPD. from 09/26/2017

    A representative of the MTS press service, Dmitry Solodovnikov, contacted us. Here is his comment as is:

    The information in the article is incorrect. After 7 GB is exhausted, a redirect or auto-renewal is activated, but unlimited for all unlimited resources works, as a check using the number that the author of the article kindly provided us with showed.

    Youtube is not charged at the "Hype" tariff - including embedded videos on third-party resources
