Internet option "SuperBit Abroad" MTS

On foreign trips, each of us prefers to look around, and not at the screen of his gadget. And yet the Internet is indispensable even in the most exciting journeys. On the road, it is both a guide to local attractions, and a navigator, and an online translator from foreign languages, and a means of communication with home, and even a way to hold a meeting with colleagues without leaving the beach.

But all this - provided that Wi-Fi is always at hand, Internet surfing is inexpensive and being online is not difficult. Alas, this is not always the case abroad.

Looking for an operator

In many hotels, accessing the Internet is sometimes problematic. Why? Everyone who lives in neighboring rooms connects to Wi-Fi at about the same time. For this reason, the network is overloaded, the speed is noticeably reduced, so that even browsing the usual pages takes too much time. And if access to the network is free, then using it regularly, in any case, is expensive.

It is even more difficult to secure a constant Internet connection if you are going to visit several countries in one vacation, vacation or business trip. Do you really have to understand local tariffs in every country you plan to visit and conclude an agreement with the operator in order to purchase a SIM card for just a few days?

Meanwhile, it is especially important during tours that the Internet is mobile. This means that it is best to choose an operator even before leaving Russia, which, without problems, overpayments and brakes, will provide access to the worldwide network abroad.

How to catch a network in roaming

There are several options for this:

First, you can rely on your regular mobile operator if it guarantees automatic roaming abroad. True, in this case, get ready to pay much more for access to the Internet than in Russia.

Secondly, you can order a roaming connection service for your permanent domestic operator, even if it does not provide services abroad. automatic search networks. True, in this case, the gadget will have to be configured manually, and the connection may be unstable, you will need to wait for a connection to roaming. It turns out that for some time it will be impossible to contact relatives, business partners, friends who remained in Russia, as well as access the global database.

However, nothing prevents us from using the advantages of modern civilization in other countries with the same comfort as at home. To do this, it is enough to purchase a SIM card from a domestic company.

Travel SIM cards for internet abroad

GoodLine has been providing Russian tourists with international cellular communication and clearly tailored to their needs.

Buying a GoodLine SIM card through an online store or at the company's Moscow office, you get:

- LTE-Internet abroad at a price of 10 times more profitable than roaming, which is provided by most operators;

- Surfing the World Wide Web at 4G speed.

To use mobile high-speed Internet abroad without interruptions, apply for the Planet-Good tariff. How much is it?

- The "Sea of ​​the Internet" package includes 5000 MB, which will cost $ 29 (from 30 kopecks / MB).

- The "SmartData" package includes 1000 MB, which will cost $19 (from 1 ruble/MB).

Russian citizens began to travel abroad more often — in the first half of this year, the number of such trips increased by 24%. The most popular destinations were Turkey and European countries. Internet project "Be mobile" decided to find out how much it costs mobile connection in international roaming at popular resorts and holiday countries, and how you can save.

Number of citizens Russian Federation, which are sent abroad, according to the results of the first half of 2017, began to grow. This is largely due to the stabilization of the ruble against other currencies, as well as the opening of a number of holiday destinations, the same in Turkey. People are more and more willing to travel outside of Russia. It is clear that no one wants to be left without communication while traveling. Just in time for the holiday season of 2017, the Be Mobile Internet project analyzed the tariffs for international roaming of the largest Russian operators.

Beeline

" Then I compared the cost of international roaming with the "big three" - Beeline, MTS and MegaFon. By researching the prices of calls abroad. Today I will compare the prices for Internet in roaming, also with Beeline, MTS and MegaFon. Perhaps this post will help you choose an operator for more profitable use of the Internet abroad.

The comparison will be as follows:
1) Three cellular operator: Beeline, MTS, MegaFon.
2) Two countries popular with Russian tourists - Egypt (may open soon), Thailand. I am not considering Turkey yet, as there are no prospects yet.
3) Internet prices for all three operators, along with options.

Attention: in all options, the selected amount of traffic is available within 24 hours after the first access to the Internet in roaming.

1. Beeline. This operator offers the following separate service "The most profitable Internet in roaming". The cost of 40Mb is 200 rubles per day. Above the norm - 5 rubles per 1 MB. Without problems, automatically connects to roaming. Very comfortably! No need to type any commands and think about turning it on and off.

2. MegaFon. The company offers tourists two options for connecting to the Internet abroad - "Internet Abroad" and "Vacation Online".

"Internet Abroad". In this option, Egypt and Thailand are included in the zone"Popular countries + CIS". The following prices are offered here: for 10Mb - 329 rubles, for 30Mb - 829 rubles. Plug and play required.

"Vacation online". The cost of connecting the option is 30 rubles. Then the cost of 1Mb of traffic is 19 rubles. This option will only work in Egypt. For Thailand, it is no longer suitable.

3. MTS. The company offers several options "BIT Abroad", "Maxi BIT Abroad" and "Super BIT Abroad". There is no connection fee for all options. Requires disconnection and connection. All options work in Egypt and Thailand

"BIT abroad". 30 MB - 300 rubles.
"Maxi BIT abroad". 70Mb - 600 rubles
"Super Beat Abroad". 200 MB - 1500 rubles.





And now we can sum up. As you can see, the most available internet in roaming (Egypt and Thailand) offers Beeline - 200 rubles for 40 MB.

In second place in terms of the availability of mobile Internet in roaming is MTS. Here, in the cheapest option "BIT abroad", the Internet can be purchased for 300 rubles per day, receiving 30 MB.

MegaFon has the most expensive Internet. In the "Internet Abroad" option, the cost is 329 rubles for just 10Mb. In the option "Vacation online" 1Mb - 19 rubles. Ie 10Mb is already 190 rubles. Also expensive.

How to choose the best carrier providing mobile Internet in roaming in Italy(and for travel in general) in order to always stay in touch, use social networks to the maximum and at the same time not “get on the money” much. BlogoItaliano decided to take a closer look at the current offers so that you can choose the best SIM card for your travels.

In our review, we started from the proposals of Russian, European and native Italian operators. But even if you are not going to Italy, but to another country, we have made every effort to ensure that this review still remains relevant and helps easy to find the best deals. Please note that the article was written in the last days of February 2017, and therefore rates may change over time.

Roaming abroad. "Big Three"

First, let's see what our domestic operators can offer us in terms of mobile Internet in roaming. Indeed, some people may find it quite enough in terms of volume and acceptable price, but it’s too lazy to look for and buy a special SIM card.

Offers of Russian operators for Internet in roaming

MTS

For subscribers who need Internet in roaming while traveling abroad, MTS has a special plug-in option - "Bit Abroad". She, in turn, has derivatives - "Super BIT Abroad" and "Maxi BIT Abroad". All of them differ in many factors and conditions. Let's highlight the main ones - price, traffic, speed.

  • "BIT abroad" - 450 rubles per day, traffic is not limited, after exceeding the threshold of 100 megabytes, the speed drops to 128 kbps and "holds on" until a new day.
  • "Maxi BIT abroad" - 700 rubles per day, traffic is not limited, the traffic threshold is 200 megabytes, after which the speed drops to 128 kbps.
  • "Super BIT abroad" - 1600 rubles per day, there are no restrictions on speed and traffic.

For all three options, Internet roaming fees are charged every new day. You can “fight” with speed limits due to exceeding the quota on the first two options using additional services by the type of "Turbo button".

The indicated rates apply only to the use of mobile Internet in roaming from MTS in Italy and a number of other countries. There are groups of countries where the conditions will be completely different. More information about the tariffs and conditions of the option can be found on the official website of MTS

Megaphone

MegaFon has special tariffs for the use of mobile Internet in roaming, but Italy in this list is separated into a completely separate plan - "Unlimited Italy". Why such attention to Italy is not clear, but pleasant.

Within the framework of this tariff, the Internet will cost you 500 rubles per day. There are no restrictions on traffic and speed. The only thing is that you will not be able to distribute the Internet via Wi-Fi using mobile device as an access point.

Valid in Italy, the Vatican and San Marino. The fee is charged automatically once a day. If you want to disable the service, you will need to do it manually. Connect the tariff and find out additional conditions

Beeline

Finally, the "striped" Russian mobile operator. Beeline here, as always, is concise. In Italy, Internet roaming will cost you 5 rubles per megabyte. The minimum paid amount is 40 MB per day. One-time debited 200 rubles, and after the exhaustion of the included volume of 40 MB, the traffic is considered per megabyte until the end of the day. No limit is missing as a class.

Mobile Internet in roaming from European operators

Now consider the universal options offered by European operators, including the so-called "virtual" travel SIM cards.

Orange Mundo

The Spanish operator Orange has a special offer for mobile Internet for travelers in Europe - "Mundo".

For 7 euros, you get 1 GB of mobile traffic, which can be spent within a month. If this is not enough for you, then for 10 Euro you can buy 2 GB, and for 15 - 3 GB.

The card and tariff are valid throughout almost all of Europe, with the exception of Monaco, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. Full list countries can be viewed at the link below.

Orange has some of the best rates in Europe

The minimum one-time replenishment of the balance is 5 euros. The travel sim card is valid for 11 months from the last recharge. You can top up with a plastic bank card with 3D-Secure support on the Orange website.

As you can see, everything is quite simple, convenient and transparent, and most importantly - quite profitable. Get to know the rates and.

Important update dated October 28, 2017 Representatives of Orange in Russia found this article on BlogoItaliano and offered a personal discount for our readers. On the page for ordering a SIM card using the link above, simply enter the promo code secretitaly and you will receive a 10% discount on your purchase. By the way, on the website euroroaming.ru using the same promotional code you can get a discount on cards of other operators for the Internet abroad, but the discount for other cards may be less.

MTX Connect

Another new, very original and in many ways progressive solution was offered by MTX Connect. This is a travel sim card strictly for mobile Internet. Voice communication via SIM is not provided.

Only unlimited Internet is of interest here, since the prices for per-megabyte billing are not interesting in any way.

So, MTX Connect offers the following:

  • 3.49 euros per day for 150 MB. After reaching the quota, the connection speed drops to 64 kbit / s Who doesn’t know or doesn’t remember anymore - it’s sooooo slow, at the level of the first dial-up Internet, which it was in the 90s of the last century. So, if you need something more than checking your mail a couple of times, it’s better to immediately look at the full unlimited.
  • 9.99 euros / day full unlimited unlimited. Here, like Orange, the day is counted from the moment you enter. The speed really doesn’t “cut”, no matter how many megabytes or gigabytes per day you pump out.

There are no restrictions on distribution via Wi-Fi. The only thing is that torrents are blocked.

It is easy to order a travel SIM card and receive it by regular mail. In Russia and other CIS countries, a sim card comes by mail without problems and for free. Once received, it must be activated via the MTX Connect website.

DreamSim

A very young, but interesting and promising “office”, which from the very first days of its existence has positioned itself only by rhetoric on the official website as “stylish, fashionable, youth”. Information on the network about her is the absolute minimum, but there are no sharp negative-revealing reviews either.

DreamSim created by travelers for travelers

So, the DreamSim travel sim card is universal, connects to any operator in Italy or any other country from a long list, after which you can use the mobile Internet at a price of 0.01 euros per 1 MB.

Money is withdrawn per kilobyte. That is, if you downloaded 50 kb of mail, you will pay exactly that much, no more. The minimum balance replenishment is 10 euros.

From the good and convenient - the presence of a special mobile application, with which you can "here and now" find out how much mobile Internet will cost you in roaming in the place where you are, as well as take advantage of a number of other functions.

UK phone number. Also quite a "plus".

Internet in roaming from Italian operators

And finally, let's see what local mobile operators in Italy offer. Oddly enough, nothing out of the ordinary, for which it would be worth waiting patiently for arrival in the country in order to buy exactly the local sim card.

Wind

National Italian mobile operator Wind offers several packages of prepaid and contract mobile Internet. We are interested, of course, prepaid. The following options are offered per month:

  • 3 GB for 3 euros;
  • 5 GB for 9 euros;
  • 12 GB for 19 euros;
  • 20 GB for 16.95 euros;

If you use up the quota ahead of time, you can use a special SMS request to “continue the banquet” on the following conditions:

  • 1 GB for 3 euros;
  • 3 GB for 6 euros;
  • 5 GB for 9 euros.

For more details, check out the official website. Too bad the site is only in Italian

Vodafone

More recently, last year, Vodafone in Italy offered quite comfortable tariffs for mobile Internet. Recently, the situation has changed not for the better, and Vodafone has lost all the advantages. However, this is an old and very large provider, so it will make sense for many to use its services.

Vodafone is one of the largest Italian providers

As part of the Vodafone 19 offer, mobile Internet in Italy will cost 6 euros per day with a quota of 1 GB. After exceeding the quota, each subsequent 100 MB will be charged at a price of 2 euros.

Billing is carried out for every 100 kb.

TIM

Another "native" Italian mobile operator. This is almost the oldest provider in Italy with a large client base and coverage. Its minus from the point of view of a tourist is a breathtaking, unrealistic, insane, indecently huge number of all kinds of offers, tariffs, promotions, packages, each of which is also wrapped in a thick layer of conditions, restrictions, benefits, additional services.

We will make it easier for you by roughly orienting you at least in numerical order. For example, at the closest to understanding by mere mortals tariff plan TIM SPECIAL START mobile Internet will cost you 20 euros per month for 4 GB.

What is the result

In general, any traveler can clearly define his needs for mobile Internet in roaming. They fit into four conditional categories: “not enough for a couple of days”, “a lot for a couple of days”, “small for a long time”, “a lot for a long time”. From the options described above, you can easily choose the most optimal for yourself.
