MUST READ! The SIM card itself is a good buy and fast delivery
The SIM card itself is a good buy and fast delivery So though this review should only reflect this product and seller which gets five stars all the way, the Tello service is another story. It’s a great service that is affordable and super easy to set up. But the only complaint I have is a huge one that makes me regret ever trying them. They throttle your data down to super slow prehistoric speed after only about a week of normal average use. They slow it down so bad just opening up an app you attempt to use takes four minutes even if it ever does open it which it most likely WONT. Your phone will become next to useless except for basic text messages and calls. Sending a video or even just a plain photo thru text at the very end of your billing cycle just plain old WONT happen. It becomes so insanely frustrating when ur not home on your Wi-Fi and u need to do something super important like check your bank account app asap and u just won’t be able to do it. And I have a new iPhone so it’s not my phone. Sucks because it works so so well and so fast in the beginning of my billing cycle. If I were you reading this review and you’re dead set on trying them, I would purchase one month pay as you go style they offer of “unlimited” data for $25 and then you can decide weather or not it fits your needs. But in my opinion, unless you do nothing but call and sometimes send basic text messages, you will not be happy with this service. How they stay in business is beyond me. It’s god awful. Hope this helped…. Mind you this is not the first cheaper and less known cell provider I have tried. They are all like this. I had to finally give in and go way out of my budget and sign up for Verizon’s cell service which is damn near a hundred a month (with phone insurance) just to be able to use my phone as it works at home on Wi-Fi. It works AMAZING now. I can do anything I want at anytime from anywhere I would possibly go. I will just have to bite the bullet here on this one and live with the adjustment I have to make on my budget. Sad. ... show more

Cheap. Great Data. Reception Sketchy However.
TMO network, which isn't great in my area of rural appalachia. Cheap however. Moving from cricket as they kept jacking up rates and running out of data. Tello gives me 50GB of data a month compared to only 3gb from cricket and costs way less cricket was 35/month plus a 5 hey you didn't renew on-time fee so basically $40 a month where Tello is only $25/month after the promo ends. I DO NOT like that I don't receive texts when I come back off airplane mode or out of signal, like they aren't stored or resent, if you don't have your phone on and have a signal you aren't getting the text, even later. So, it's cheap and I have tons of data however the tmo signal sucks here and I'm always missing texts from my wife however I do have an excuse now. I guess check their service map before buying. Setup was quick and I ported my number, took maybe 15 minutes from loading the sim to having my number ported to it and making calls. If you're in a city go for it, I have no regrets even with their not great reception in my holler. Once you get to town 5g everywhere. ... show more

Not a scam (I don't think so anyway), just super low quality
All these reviews are hilarious. 5-stars: like someone said, "what's up with all the 5-star reviews?" I agree. .. .. 2-star and 1-star: I these people don't know how cell phones and cell networks work. Here's my experience. I'm very pro-privacy so I know a thing or two about how the phones work, how the operating systems work, and how the networks work. I have 4 Tello cards. Long story short, I was only able to activate the first card (as a test). My intentions for this service is to have cellular backup, using cellular routers instead of cellular phones for when we have ISP outages, which we have experienced more frequently in the last couple years: slow is better than none. I had no issues with the first card. The card costed me $2 to my door, then a $10 plan for 2GB and a phone number, for testing. One of my kids is currently using it as a backup phone, so it is currently working. About the phone, it is an eBay special Motorola G7, blah blah blah, unlocked, I flashed LineageOS 21 on it. It's working fine. The next card I tried activating without a phone number, 2GB data-only. This card showed "Pending" for 24 hours, then dropped off my history. Keep in mind, there is no phone involved at this point. The third card, same issue. I even set up a new account to activate, since Amazon will only sell you one card (per purchase), so I thought maybe Tello only allows one card per household. Long story short, I was only able to activate the original card. The other cards are destined for the rubbish bin. Just some education for those who aren't aware, your old AT&T phone, for example, won't work with Tello unless you unlock it first. They are "carrier-locked", to bind you to the service until the end of your contract. Your old T-Mobile phone will probably work, since Tello works over the T-Mobile network, I've never used T-Mobile so I couldn't say 100%. As far as frequencies, I bought a Xiaomi phone about a year ago, hoping to use a really nice phone, but apparently, the frequencies they use don't match US carriers, so some phones like the Xiaomi phones, none of them will work at all, due to the radios. Yes, check to make sure your phone uses US frequencies. If your bought them in the US, they will probably work. I have a Brax Mototola G7 phone and they reset the IMEI, so as far as I know, all the carriers say the "IMEI is invalid", otherwise, your IMEI should be fine is you haven't messed with it. MOST people are not savvy enough to mess with the IMEI, so "invalid IMEI" is pretty rare. As far as customer service, the activation shows "Pending" for about 24 hours, then drops off my history. The last card I tired said "Pending", then "Refunded". You have to option to call them or email them. When I reached out to them via email, they asked to verify my identity. At face value, this seems reasonable, but having not been able to activate 3 out of 4 cards, already having my name, phone number, address from my first card, what more personal information do they want? Let alone, "they don't know me", what more information can they use to "verify me"? Personal data harvesting much? Back to the "Refunded" comment: their website says you don't get charged until you are successfully activated. The last card I tried was never activated, why would I get a refund, unless they charged me before a successful activation? In conclusion, if you are lucky enough to get one of these cards activated, it is fine as long as you're not doing anything demanding with it. I don't use SMS for privacy-reasons either, so I would only order data-only for these services. Perhaps they don't want to sell you "data-only plans". I'm off to find another service and throw all these cards away. ... show more

Best bang for the buck will always win.
We had Mint Mobile for a couple of years with no issues at all just so you know. The reason we changed was Tello had a monthly rate of 15 dollars for 10 Gigs of Data compared to Mint Mobiles 6 Gigs per month and to get that you must pay up front 12 months in advance to get the rate of 15.00 dollars to = the same amount per month. Signing up to Tello was pretty easy except we wanted to keep our old number so we needed to get some release code number from Mint and they were very nice about it and as you know they were giving us a cheaper price to stay but wouldn't give us more Data to match Tello. We will see how Tello compares after time using it. ... show more

Excellent coverage and low no contract pricing
Very happy with my new Tello service. Once I had my account and pin from my Verizon service reseller and provided that to Tello on their website...it only took 2 mins to port my phone number over! Signal uses TMobile, and that to has been working great, such that I can even get a strong 4G and even 5G service when shopping in the orange box hardware store or warehouse clubs, which I wasn't able to consistently use before. TM has made huge improvements in coverage since I last used them 18 years ago. Lots of data for a low price too and convenient month to month use. 5 stars all around for Tello! ... show more
