Tello is awesome!

They tried everything they could on their end and it showed they actually care about their customers, they would reply to my email within 15 minutes or less, and the issue wasn't even on their side, it had to do with the iOS I was running at the time, Tello is awesome and affordable. I recommend them to all my friends and family. Thanks again Tello

Generally Happy

I am generally happy with Tello for my mobile phone service. The price is 5 STARS easily. The coverage is an average 3 STARS. Living in a small city, the coverage is fine. Traveling along the interstate system is fine. But outside of cities and the major travel routes, the coverage is less than desired. Data is 3 STARS. I rarely use my allotted data usage from month to month. But this last month (NOV 2025) while on an extended road trip, I ran out of data with only 1-2 days left before my auto renewal. It would be nice if Tello banked at least some of the unused data from past months.

Data is inconsistent but that's it

Data is horrible. I was within 100 feet of a tower and it could not load a 144p youtube video. Super slow no matter where you are. It's cheap tho ig. However customers service is incredible as well as great price.
