Is there an MTS connection in Egypt, does it catch roaming?
Write, who had what kind of connection in Egypt and precisely from the Pyramis? Will it catch MTS? Or is it better to buy a tourist SIM card or a local one?

Roaming will work on MTS if you connect it. We have been using Goodline lately. Approximately 50 cents per minute outgoing. Bought in Euroset.

MTS works, but you need to manually configure it through a local operator, look at the “Bon Voyage” service on the net. There are many other options for an international travel SIM card TravelSIM incoming free of charge, outgoing $ 0.55 can be used in many countries, sold at travel agencies or via the Internet.
It can also be local, operators in Egypt are Vodafone, Mobinil, Etisalat.
Minimum cost from 20:00 pm to 8 am and Friday, Saturday around the clock, weekend rate.
You can buy a local SIM card at the Season Mall (new shopping mall).
You can also communicate with loved ones via Skype for free, provided that the Internet in the hotel is cheap and you bring a laptop.

Cellular communication is already working well in Egypt.
But in roaming you will fly into a very tidy penny. After all, both incoming and outgoing paid calls.
Only receiving SMS is free, and there must be at least 10 dollars on the account for one call. When I had 55 hryvnias (that's 7 dollars) left on MTS Ukrainian, I couldn't send SMS.

We used Simtravel, incoming free, outgoing $0.55.
You can also use the Goodline (TravelSIM) international tourist SIM card for exactly the same tariff,
they can be used in many countries.
You can also use local ones - mobile operators in Egypt - Vodafone with codes 010 and 016, Mobinil with codes 012 and 018, Etisalat with code 011, it is very convenient that you can always top up your balance!
The lowest rate is valid from 8 pm to 8 am and Friday - Saturday around the clock as a weekend rate.
To call from a public pay phone, a Menatel card is required. You can buy it in stores, pharmacies, post offices, kiosks with a green Menatel sign. Changer cards come in denominations of 5, 10, 20, 50 pounds. It is most convenient to buy a card for 20 pounds. The card is enough for 5-7 minutes of conversation with the CIS countries, depending on the time of the conversation (the nightly rate is slightly cheaper). If there is less than a certain amount left on it (about 5 pounds), then it can only be used for local calls.

I went to Hurghada last summer, the travel agency offered a tourist SIM card "Simfortour", I didn’t even know that such travel cards existed), I didn’t pay anything for incoming calls, my relatives called me for free from SKYPE, I was charged about 20 cents for minute, there were no problems with the quality and signal of the connection, I spent half the starting balance of the package, I sent sms for 10 cents from the SIM card menu, I don’t regret it, everything is clear without any hidden fees, although the billing is still per minute, but this is almost all operators such.

Hello everyone, how does MTS work now in roaming?
Have the rates changed since the 13th year?
And what is more profitable, to take a local SIM card now or still roaming? And then they gathered in Hurghada, that's interesting?
And if rooming, then which operator and tariff is better [url= http://promobila.info/tarif-super-mts-usloviya-podklyucheniya/]choose[/url]?

We were in Egypt in May 2016, MTS catches well, but both incoming and outgoing paid and very expensive!
It is beneficial to take a local SIM card Orange or Mobilin for the INTERNET $ 5 1GB and $ 10 2GB. and 200 sms in a package, the speed is good.
From Ukraine via MTS to our MTS-SMS costs only 50 kopecks, and in roaming it is of course more expensive to answer, I don’t remember exactly, but it seems to be 8 UAH.
