    Card is readily available $25 price for 30 days of service Talk text 3 gigs data 4G LTE Hotspot International text and calls unlimited No connection fees $10 credit to countries not covered in the international part of the plan I heard you can still use the regular service in Canada and Mexico The use and connection of this plan is easy online DIY phone service without the headaches Otherwise ask a Blue shirt to assist you in connecting the phone for service on this plan Basically it's similar to Metro by TMobile without going to their stores Buy the phone in Best Buy Buy the card Connect the phone yourself Be on T-Mobile network Customer service is decent $45 card will cover 2 phone lines of service each at the $25 rate Local coupons One negative: $1.20 surcharge And Local sales tax No way around either Better to purchase this card when it's discounted My purchase came to $27 Discount Surcharge Sales tax Not bad, still lower than $30 Without the discount: $28+ Still under $29

    The coverage provided by Simple Mobile is strong, and the pricing for this plan is some of the best on the market. The only downside is that Simple Mobile will not unlock a phone affiliated with this plan until after 12 months of paid service.

    I've yet to ever had any worry about coverage or streaming, and best thing is you can leave for a couple months and come back without anything more than buying another card. You still keep your number and regardless of even the cheapest plan you go down to like 2G or 3G still after using up your 4G. So not much to loose unless you are a heavy daily user, still for $25 who can complain? I've been going since 2017 with it, and Sprint nor Cricket neither one could pay me enough to go back.

    Perfect for my needs which are unlimited phone and text. It also comes with data but it is low speed and not very practical. You don’t have to buy a new card every month but if you go more than 90 days without using your phone number you lose that number. You can always get a new phone card and activate the phone with a new number.

    This is one of the cheapest prepaid options you can get. I don't use a ton of cellular data since I often have access to WiFi, so 3 GB is good enough for me. Plus it has unlimited talk/text, which is great. If you don't need a ton of high speed data, this is a good choice for you.

    I bought this cell phone plan for my 11 year old. I needed something affordable, that allowed him to talk, text, play games and watch as many videos as he wanted. This plan is perfect. The trick is to use wi-fi whenever it is available and then when you are not near it, use your phone’s regular data.

    I was a Mint Mobile customer but they only provide service in three month blocks, so I switched to Simple Mobile for the remaining three weeks of my visit. Service has been great, setup was easy.

    Great price point and a good choice to test out the phones capabilities for the first month. I stepped up to the next tier to get 5GB of data after the first month.

    I purchased this along with "Simple Mobile - Keep Your Own Phone SIM Card Kit" that comes separately ($1 in Best Buy store) for a friend who was visiting from overseas for a month. Instructions provided are clear and easy to follow. Upon installing the SIM card to an unlocked device, called the number on the back of the prepaid card to set up and it only took a few minutes. New number was provided with the area code that you provide of where you're activating from. Connection was surprisingly good and the 4G LTE speed was about the same as my AT&T carrier! Possibly considering to switch to Simple Mobile from AT&T family plan since it's much cheaper and connection appears to be on the same level.

    Can't beat it $25 for unlimited talk text and data and 3 GB to that data is 4G and then it just slows down and then they even were doing a sale where if you got that activated at the store you get $20 off the phone so basically I paid the price for the phone for the phone and the $25 activation card great deal
