Paying Too Much for Wireless!

Coverage, and the Same Service, for Less...MUCH Less! A few
clicks and you're done!
Start Here:
GET ON AT&T FOR HALF PRICE:
SWITCH TO
RED POCKET
Red
Pocket
offers you a choice of the major wireless networks and the best deal
uses AT&T. Red Pocket's low prices
include plans for singles, families, businesses, and data-only, with
both monthly and annual plans. Also included are FREE international
calls, Mexico and Canada roaming, and live customer service. Plans
start at $10 that include Unlimited Talk, Text and 1 Gb Data with
slowed downloads when you reach your monthly limit.
Best Alternative:
Cricket offers a competitive prepaid service on the AT&T network with Unlimited Voice, Text & Picture Messaging, and Data. Plans start at $15 with a discount for Auto-Pay, but not much discount for multiple users. Taxes and fees are included, which can be significant. Cricket offers a wide selection of phones and allows you to bring your own. Cricket phones can roam in Mexico for Talk, Text and Data on the AT&T Mexico network with some plans, but not in Canada. You can switch plans for your trip and switch back when you return, but you need to pay the increase when you switch. Cricket is owned by AT&T.
GET ON T-MOBILE FOR HALF PRICE:
SWITCH TO US
MOBILE
US Mobile is a great alternative to T-Mobile. Not only do they have low prices and responsive customer service, they also roam in many foreign countries. Plan prices start at $5, and you can get Unlimited Talk, Text and 5Gb Data for only $15. Also, they offer new, shared data plans that are perfect for families, friends, or businesses of any size, including Unlimited Talk & Text for only $9 per line. US Mobile can use T-Mobile's network as a choice of two US nationwide wireless networks, and offers Wi-Fi Calling.

Best Alternative:
Mint Mobile is a very good overall Prepaid value. They save you money by offering longer spans between refills. You can sign up for $20 per month for Talk, Text and 10Gb of Data with a 3-month plan. They have other plans and promotions, some as low as $15 per month with plenty of Data. Mint Mobile is owned by T-Mobile.
GET ON VERIZON FOR HALF PRICE:
Twigby offers a great bargain with total access to the Verizon network. Plans start at $5 per month and you can get Unlimited Talk & Text and 2Gb of data for $15. Twigby offers a modest selection of phones, and you can bring your own. Twigby supports "Wi-Fi Calling" and Wi-Fi Texting which gives you coverage in poor locations as well as in foreign countries. Since Twigby does not charge an "activation" fee, they seek additional profit by charging you to get your initial FREE SIM faster. Pay the extra one-time shipping charge so your SIM arrives quickly and your old plan doesn't go into a new charged period. Twigby is the lowest-priced way to access the Verizon network with a prepaid that isn't owned by Verizon.
Best Alternative:
Visible gives you access to the entire Verizon wireless network. Visible has two plans that both include Unlimited Talk, Text and Data. Their new $25 plan gets you Unlimited Talk, Text, Data and Hotspot, and Taxes and Fees are included! Their Visible Plus $45 plan gets you FREE roaming in Canada and Mexico, International Calling and Text and something they call, "Premium Network Experience," which includes 5G Ultra Wideband. Visible gives you few weeks to try it out for FREE. Visible uses the Verizon network and Verizon is a partial owner of Visible.
GET THE CHEAPEST WIRELESS PLAN AVAILABLE:
Tello has plans that start at $5 and plans with data start at $9. You can bring your own phone, but there is a limit of the type of phones that are compatible. They use the entire T-Mobile network including their 5G Coverage with a compatible phone. They offer Pay As You Go rates, Wi-Fi Calling, and calls to Canada and Mexico are included.
Best Alternative:
Boost Mobile is operated by Dish Wireless and gives you a unique choice of plans and good nationwide coverage. Customers with Boost-branded devices will use either the T-Mobile or AT&T networks and will operate on Dish's own 5G network, where available, but only with a compatible 5G phone. Their Unlimited plan is a great alternative to those from the other carriers at a good price and Taxes and fees are included, which can be substantial. Boost Infinite has been rolled into the Boost Mobile name and all products and features are now the same.

Join
the "Family":
Carriers
now offer competitive combinations of Calls, Texts, Data and Features
that are split among members of a "family". The big benefit is
how
loosely you can define a family. You can join with a friend or
colleague
to share a plan, just make sure you agree how billing and overages will
be handled. Some Prepaid carriers do not offer family plans.
Your
Employer, School or Organization Might Get You a Discount:
If you work for a large company, government agency or school, you probably qualify for a discount, as much as 25%. This may include phones for yourself and all your family. Check the Employee Discount Page or ask your personnel department (instead of the boss), sometimes the carrier will help you look. It may require a change of wireless companies. Also, using a company phone, or asking to be able to expense your phone could drop your cost to FREE.

Switch
Your Home Phone:
If
you still have a wired home telephone, there are much cheaper
alternatives, and save 50 to 100%!
▶ Drop your
cell
phone into a base that operates your existing home
phones.
▶ Plug your
phones into a
wireless box.
▶ Switch
to
an internet-based phone.
▶ Drop the
landline totally.
Make sure
that dropping your home phone line doesn't
increase your costs
as part of a
bundle discount with cable TV or internet.
