Brief video review of the MTS “VSeti” option
"VSeti" from MTS: detailed description
Perhaps, having heard the name of this option, you thought that it would activate additional traffic for a subscriber, which should be enough for active use of the mobile Internet for a month.
In fact, the “VNetworks” option provides subscribers who connect it with the opportunity to use all popular social networks and instant messengers in unlimited mode.
That is, when using social resources, traffic counting is simply turned off, and the quota provided within the tariff plan remains untouched.
Some will say that this service does not at all replace real unlimited, but if you believe the statistics, most subscribers spend the provided Internet traffic to a greater extent on viewing pages and content on social networks, as well as communicating in instant messengers. Thus, by activating the “VSet” service, the lion’s share of the traffic that was previously spent on viewing such resources will be saved, and, most likely, within a month subscribers will not be able to use up their available gigabytes.
List of sites with unlimited access using the “Online” option
The list of services and sites to which MTS subscribers are provided with unlimited access within the “VNet” option is as follows:
By the way, for unlimited viewing of videos on YouTube, MTS has a separate option “Unlimited YouTube”, and if you need full unlimited, then you can use the “Lots of Internet” service or connect to the “Tariffishe” tariff plan.
The list of available services is impressive, and once again proves that when connecting to a service you can use a standard web quota. However, you can even use a tariff plan without providing traffic or with a small number of megabytes per month of use.

The service is available for connection and use on all current MTS tariff plans, except for the “Hype” and “MTS Tablet” tariffs, and for subscribers of the “My Unlimited” and “Smart Zabugorishche” tariffs it is activated by default and is provided completely free of charge.
It is noteworthy that even if you watch videos or listen to audio recordings on social networks such as VKontakte, for example, the user’s traffic will not be written off. However, it is important to understand one thing - often on the Vkontakte website content from YouTube, RuTube, etc. is embedded in video windows. If you view such content, traffic will be calculated according to the terms of the tariff plan used.
It is also worth noting that the conditions of the “VNet” option remain relevant only when using the services VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, Twitter, instant messengers, etc., through official optimized applications and full versions browsers. That is, if you go to OK or VK, for example, through Opera browser In data compression mode, the calculation of used megabytes will continue as normal. In addition, traffic counting will also be carried out when updating official applications for using social networks and services, which is periodically carried out in the AppStore and Google Play.
In addition, traffic counting will be enabled even if resources are viewed through browsers with Incognito mode enabled.
Cost of the “VSet” service from MTS
As we have already said, for subscribers using the “Smart Zabugorishche” tariff plan, this option is offered for use “out of the box”, or according to the standard, and it is available for use for free. But not all of the operator's customers face a similar fate, and if you use a different package, you'll have to pay.
