How to turn off roaming from a megaphone. How to turn off international roaming in a megaphone

All mobile subscribers know that the charges for services in roaming are quite high. In addition, you need to pay for incoming calls. And if you, for example, are going to, then the mobile balance can empty very quickly. MegaFon has specially developed an additional service "Whole World". This option will be indispensable for subscribers who often travel or go on business or pleasure.

The main feature of the service is a package of free minutes for communication. Thus, clients receive 40 minutes of communication time per day. Below is a detailed overview of the option, which will be relevant for residents of the Moscow region. The cost of the service is indicated specifically for Moscow and the region. People who live in other regions need to check prices with the operator, in the communication shops or on the company's website.

Detailed description

By activating the "Whole World" service, customers will be able to get 40 free minutes for calls. The cost of this option is 59 rubles per day. It is this amount that is the subscription fee that will be debited every day. This service can be activated on any tariff plan from MegaFon. The only connection limitation is the "Around the World" tariff. The activated service will be valid only when you are abroad.

It is worth noting that when the free package of minutes ends, the tariff scale begins to operate according to. Minutes are credited every day. Accrual occurs at 00:00 Moscow time.

The service limitation lies in its performance. That is, if a service or tariff is activated that minimizes the cost of communication abroad, then the "Whole World" service will not be able to be connected. The service operates constantly, until the subscriber turns it off himself. Accordingly, after the trip and upon arrival in the home region, the service should be deactivated in order to save funds on the phone.

Service usage cost

As described above, the subscription fee is 59 rubles per day. Accordingly, by simple calculations, you can deduce the cost of a minute of conversation, which is 1.48 rubles / min. For communication in international roaming, such a cost is considered very low, and therefore profitable, but free minutes are valid only for incoming calls. You will need to pay the full cost for outgoing calls.

The very connection of the service is made free of charge. It is worth noting that the option only provides free minutes. The cost of messages and the use of Internet traffic remains the same, according to the roaming rates.

To check all services that reduce the cost of communication in roaming, it is recommended to use the service combination * 105 * 530 # ... After entering it, you should make a call and view all active packages.
