Probably, many Mobile TeleSystems subscribers would like to control their expenses and understand how much money they spend on making calls. It's not difficult at all! The company helps its clients learn about the rationality of charging for voice communications. For this purpose, the operator has created and provides the Balance service under the control of MTS. You, as a client of the company, do not need to spend a large amount of time to carry out control, because information about expenses will arrive very quickly.
Description of service
How much money was spent to make the last call? You should find out your account before the call was made, as well as the amount of money on the balance after the call was made, we deduct from the larger to the smaller and as a result we find out the expense. However, even if someone decides to count in this way, it will not be very convenient. Of course, this method works, but it takes time. It is better to use the “Balance under Control” service, under which the necessary calculations will be made. With this service, you will be able to receive cost data after ending voice calls.
How the service works
It has simple functionality, namely: upon completion of the call, the person will see the expenses: data on the balance of money and the price of the call will appear. Such messages will not be saved in the phone memory. This means a controlled balance on your phone that you can always track.
Information about the balance will not be displayed when sending a CMC or MMC, using one-time services, logging into the Internet, or making video calls. Spending information is displayed only after the call is made.
For those subscribers who are located in the territory of international or domestic Russian roaming, the option will be very useful, because costs will increase significantly. Correct operation of the option is ensured only where online roaming operates. In addition to the Russian Federation (territory of intranet roaming), the list also includes one hundred and forty states. In other countries, due to the fact that there is no online roaming, data on expenses will be received with a delay, because the information is transmitted through a roaming partner to the home network.
