    I ordered 2 sim cards and a prepaid card.All I received was the sim cards. So I could not switch my phone from straight talk to simple mobile and I lost money.Probably about 35 dollars

    I found the digital version very troublesome. The phone was stolen before I got it added. I was not asked about form of product. I would not ever choose digital.

    Was unable to use this for the phone I purchased. I assumed it was the right phone card since it was recommended with my cell phone purchase.

    I'm old not very technologically smart. I didn't realize I had purchased an E CARD, I thought it was just a CARD CARD. So, it is still stuck in my phone until I see my 6 year old granddaughter this weekend. How do you say it in Latin; CAHVIAT LEMTOR, or LET THE BUYER BEWARE. My bad...

    They have repeatedly not sent me this card to the correct email address after 2 or 3 days online customer chats and even one in store visit. Do not buy this card if you are in need of turning your phone on. They keep saying wait two hours and if not we will refer to higher support.. I have waited 3 months now!!

    As a prepaid company, it is still a good choice, much better than those other phone companies, at least it saves the activation fee
