Most people already have cell phones. Nevertheless, many are not satisfied with the various parameters of cellular communication, for example, the cost of services. But there is an opportunity to make using the phone cheaper.
It is necessary
- - money to buy a SIM card;
- - a computer;
- - access to the Internet.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide what functions you need from your mobile phone. This will help you choose the tariff that suits you best. If you call often and talk for a long time, then the unlimited option will be the most profitable for you. For those who like sending text messages, a tariff with the option of unlimited SMS is suitable. For those who often call abroad, operators offer separate tariffs with discounts for calls to the desired directions.
Step 2
Find out which telecom operators are represented in your city. In addition to the standard ones - MTS, Beeline and Megafon - local companies with favorable tariffs can also operate in your region.
Step 3
Explore the rates of the selected operators. They can be found on the websites of the companies or in their offices. Choose tariff plans with the functionality you need.
Step 4
Buy a SIM card of the operator who has the most favorable tariff for you.
Step 5
If you often call one subscriber on a cell phone, you have the opportunity to do it for free. To do this, the person you want to call must register with Skype and then attach their mobile phone to their Internet account. This way you can call him from your computer with Skype for free. There is also an opportunity to send SMS. The disadvantage of this method is that you can only make calls from home.
Step 6
For calls abroad, do not use roaming - it is unreasonably expensive for all operators. It is much better to purchase a special tourist SIM card. They are sold in telecom stores and even at the airport. It is best to top up the balance of this card before departure, in Russia. Keep in mind that, most likely, this SIM card will not receive calls on the territory of the Russian Federation. If you have not had time to purchase such a card in your country, you can buy it abroad. At the airport or hotel you will be able to tell you where in this country a foreigner can purchase a card for a cell phone.
