Zero without borders MTS Internet conditions. Review of the “Zero Without Borders” service from MTS


Most people use mobile communications these days. However, not everyone still knows how you can save on the services you use by choosing the most suitable tariff. So, for example, if you often make calls to different regions of the country, then the tariff from MTS “Zero Without Borders” is best suited for you.

If a subscriber leaves the region in which he purchased the SIM card, then he will have to pay higher rates for making calls, since now he will not only pay the standard rate, but also pay additional costs for using the company’s local equipment. That is why the cost of calls in international roaming is much higher than in the home region.

So, for example, the cost of one minute of conversation when calling to another region or another country can be - from 10 to 300 rubles. So, if you are planning to leave the region in which you purchased the SIM card, we recommend that you enable the special “Zero without Borders” option. With its help, you will receive an additional discount on mobile communications and will be able to get rid of large cash costs for calls to other regions or countries.
