    Works, flexible, check the price locally

    My local store had it in stock, marked at $4.99 on the shelf, but it rang up as $9.99. It seemed to completely flummox the young woman at the register, as if inventory control systems are never wrong. After a ludicrously long wait for multiple employees to poke at the system (never actually looking at the shelf, mind you), I ended up paying $5 - I'll let them have the extra penny. The SIM is a SIM. Not much to say, other than it's 1/3 the price of the exact same thing from T-Mo directly. It's got all the adaptors to make it fit anything from Nano to Micro to Standard, so you're covered.

    $4.99 for a T-mobile sim? Yes plsssss. Apple store and other authorized retail place usually sells them for $15. I am still in shock that Best Buy sells them for $4.99!!! The sim card works like a charm.

    Super Simple to Do

    Initially, I had no clue how to even replace a SIM card. It took about a minute to replace the SIM card and in less than 30 minutes, I had service (I called T-Mobile to activate). Don't waste your money to activate at the T-Mobile store for $20.

    Able to activate - all plans are available to pick

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was able to activate an old unlocked phone that happens to be compatible with T-Mobile network (GSM I think). In one of the steps during the activation, I was presented with a list of pre-paid plans and pay-as-you-go plans, including the $30 pre-paid plan for 100 minutes talk + 5GB data plan and the cheap $3 pay-as-you-go plan. By the way, if you go to the store and see this on the shelf, it's only a buck (some stores don't show them).

    For using with prepaid T-Mobile services, this SIM card works with any devices that takes any form of SIM card. It breaks down in three different ways so regardless of the phone or device, it will fit. T-Mobile activation is straightforward from a computer.

    swapped Iphone 4 for Iphone 6 plus, own both phones and on prepaid plan. After backing up to ITunes, logged into phone account and started "chat" with support. Gave them new card number and up in running in less than 10 minutes! $15 cheaper than going to store! Transferred everything except the voice mails I didn't upload.

    Works exactly as I wanted

    I just bought this SIM Starter Kit for my phone from France and within an hour I already have service. For anyone reading this, I bought the $40 Simply Prepaid Plan with Unlimited talk, text, and 3GB data. But you don't have to buy the same one. When activating the phone you can choose from other plans. I highly recommend this SIM for anyone who needs to have phone service in the US with a foreign phone. Just make sure you either have another phone that works or at least internet to activate online, which is what I did too.

    I bought this for my mom to activate her new phone. T-Mobile wanted to charge $15 for a SIM card to use Simply Prepaid. We decided to buy one at Best Buy instead and I'm glad we did. It was a lot cheaper and the same quality you would get elsewhere. The design of the package was also really impressive. I appreciate clever design and they really did a fantastic job. All in all, it was easy to set up and contained all of the necessary numbers.
