I would suggest to stay away from Black Wireless. I have reported my experience on this board.

Many suggest FreedomPop. I just got their LTE SIM after global SIM was discontinued and the sign up...

After switching between few MVNOs, we finally settled on Airvoice Wireless $10/month plan, a while ago. I don't even remember how many years we are with them, but never really had a problem with...

I am curious, Whats the catch with these listings?

Hello folks,

We started having a unique problem.

My home phone is hooked up to Obi (first was Obi100 and now Obi200 for almost a year) since 2013. It has been working flawlessly.

For about...

Yes, it is. Otherwise I don't know of other way to install ROM.

It is i-9505G, i.e. Google Play Edition, Galaxy S4, not carrier branded, directly bought from Google.

I have been using Airvoice for a few years now and I have had no issues that needed a contact with the customer service. The data never worked on my Galasy S4 Play edition phone but I didn't care as...

I always wondered if there is any chance of getting updates on these Chinese phones. Just hardware ins't good if there is no hope of getting any updates.

Thank you.

I hope someone has figured out a solution.

Hello folks,

Lately, I have been receiving some text messages, mostly MMS but today it got 'human-like' message that I am texting from my other phone blah blah blah. I didn't open any of the MMS...

Thank you for the information. I wasn't aware of this.
I am getting a feeling, you don't like this idea. I don't want to offer anyone a free lunch at the same time if my tax dollars are paid to take...

If you are at a liberty of elaborating your point, we would love to know what is going on and if we should change before the company goes under.

I admit being ignorant as I don't know what Lifeline stuff is. I am $10 plan user for a few years now as I work from home so I use our landline.
That said, A comment on your specific RedPocket...

Something changed in their system, so they wanted everyone to 'upgrade' their SIM cards. Everyone was supposed to request a new SIM card before certain date, if I remember correctly. The deal was,...

Hello folks,

After reading some nice comments about Black Wireless, I switched to Black Wireless in August 2014. I was very happy with their service, no complaints of any kind. I was planning to...

Thanks folks.

I agree AirVoice is solid and we do not have any complaints. She has $67 worth of stuff in balance, which will be used before switching, if at all. The deal is more about the data....

Hello folks,

DW has been on AirVoice Wireless' $10 plan for a couple of years now. It offers 250 minutes or 500 texts per month. It also offers data for 6.6c/MB. She rarely uses data and quite...

Haven't read all replies, but in a same situation. I plan to get a dumbphone off ebay or BestBuy and put DS on $10 for 3 months plan of Black Wireless (Att MVNO). 5c a minute/text. In a rare instance...

One more question,

Just tried to order the SIM card with $20 airtime from tracfonewireless.com/byop and the shipping charge is $4.95. Really? So you pay $7 for the SIM plus $5 for shipping !!...

@ultrarunner2015,
Why don't you try check my balance feature on their website?

I wonder, when you signed up, you didn't have any airtime. I thought thats a pre-requisite.

Hello folks,

I am ready to take plunge in Tracfone world. Thanks to HansCT for a lot of help on some other thread.

I have international HTC One X (GSM) that I will be using (i.e. no carrier...

Thank you for your patience Hans, really appreciate it.

As you say in 'Canonical How TF works', all PAYG triples the buckets. I can't find anywhere on their website that the buckets are tripled....

Thats pretty annoying. If you don't get 3X minutes/txt/data, you can figure out but if you lose any of the minutes/text/data then there is no way to find out, unless you are keeping a track with an...

Thanks Hans. Conceptually, I get what you mean but I am not able to visualize this in practice. The thread that you linked, I read it again, but I failed to understand a couple of things there (which...

Thank you all and specifically HansCT for Tracfone explanation. I am diving into that, doesn't look that straight forward. If I have any questions, will get back to you. Thanks.

Edit: Hans, Pardon...

Did you look at Black Wireless?
