    It does not always happen that within the same family or company everyone uses the same operator. Therefore, it is important that the tariff you use is universal. This time we will look at the cost of calls from MTS to Tele2.

    "Smart" line

    This product line is universal, for calls and the Internet. However, now we are interested in the cost of calls from MTS to Tele2. Let's look at the example of prices for Moscow and the region.

    • "Smart mini". 350 minutes for everyone, at home and in all regions. After – 2 rubles/min., at home and while traveling. Prepayment – ​​350 rub.
    • "Smart". 550 minutes to any operators, at home and to all regions. After spending the package – 2 rubles/min. everyone in their region, 5 rubles/min. to other areas. Prepayment – ​​500 rub. Read to compare: how much does a call from Tele 2 to mts cost?

    • « Smart Top" 3000 minutes, after – 2 rub./min. to numbers in your region and 5 rubles/min. to other regions. Subscription fee – 1600 rub./month.


    If we talk about the fee/package size ratio, then the conditions are approximately equal. This is provided that priority will be given to calls to subscribers in your area. “Smart Top” turns out to be a little more profitable than others. For those who value calls from MTS to Tele2 in another region, “Smat mini” and “Smart Unlimited” are more profitable: calls above the package throughout the country cost 2 rubles per minute.

    Other tariffs

    These tariffs for calls from MTS to Tele2 are only partially suitable:

    • "Ultra". 5000 min/month On top of the package, calls to your area, regardless of where you are - 1.5 rubles/min. To other areas – 3 rubles/min. under the same conditions. Payment – ​​2700 rub./month.
    • « Red Energy" Without a subscription fee, the price for all calls within the region is 1.6 rubles/min., within the country – 8 rubles/min.
    • "Super MTS" No monthly fee, a minute for other operators in your area - 2.5 rubles / min. Rest of Russia – 14 rubles/min.
    • "Second by second." 0.05 rub./sec. (3 rubles/min) for everyone within the region and 14 rubles. the rest of Russia.

    Here it is worth paying attention to “Ultra”: the minute/charge ratio is good, the cost of calls above the package is low. Red Energy also has a good price for calls within the region. Both products are not beneficial if you make a lot of calls to subscribers in foreign areas. If you have a SIM different operators, an article about that will be useful.

    Some of the operator’s products can be made more profitable for calls by enabling one of the options: “ Profitable calls to other countries" and "Calls via the Internet".
