Good for the past two years
I've been using Tello for a couple of years and it has performed very well. It is on my wife's Moto 5G phone and there is no gaming or other intensive use.

Fantastic rates; I can't understand why more people don't use them and why you don't see them reviewed in places like Consumer Reports. And their support is superb – quick responses and actually helpful answers.

Could be a lot better…
The service is solid and seems affordable but doesn’t offer enough data. Extra data is pricey. If you’re in a remote area, the reception is not great. I have one to two bars in the house. I live in the Mojave desert.

Great experience
Great experience , I live partly in South America and when I’m in the US I just up the unlimited and use the phone for work and everything , but when in south America. I turn it all down and it cost only $8 to keep the phone and still use it on all WiFi calling .

Honest to comment
It is easy to get the roaming resources abroad, and I can have my own cellphone number, I could start to use it when I was in the US. Once I landed in Calgary, I could turn on the roaming and had the Internet immediately, so the experience was so nice, I would like to keep using tello company.

I travel abroad frequently
I travel abroad frequently so it’s great having Tello to make calls to the USA, but even more importantly, to receive verification messages. When I return to the US, I use to renew my AT&T subscription but that was getting difficult and expensive so I switched to eSIMs. I just discovered that I can easily change my Tello plan whenever I return. Tello is far superior to the eSIMs and AT&T.

Tello is great!
We switch to Tello over a year ago when we moved from the us overseas. For such a low price per month I can get sms messages from banks and my grandma can call my US number. In that time they also cut pay as you go rates so they are now competitive with data only eSIMs but often with better service. The service in the US is deprioritized compared to other major networks and especially noticeable outside cities but it still works and is a good option for the price conscious or travelers. There’s no catch and customer service was great the one time I did need help. The only thing I don’t like is that there isn’t rollover if you switch your custom plan. So for example my monthly plan was ending with 2G of data left and I wanted to switch back to my usual overseas plan without data and there wasn’t rollover. If it wasn’t a difference of less than $10 this might matter more but because of the price it’s more something to be aware of.

Tello service can't be beat
I spoke with two reps, Sebastian and Andy, and both were knowledgeable, professional, and efficient. I needed to move my eSim back to my old phone but could not through the self service. Sebastian generated a new eSim for me and gave me clear instructions on how to proceed before we disconnected the call. Unfortunately, I didn't follow the instructions (ROFL) and to make a long story short, I ended up deleting ALL the sims on my phone including the new request. I called back and spoke to Andy, and she regenerated the eSim again for me and cleaned up my mess. Now I have the eSim working on the correct phone. I have been with Tello for years now, and it's just solid phone service for a good price and 24/7 customer support that can't be beat. Worth every penny.

My whole family uses Tello
My whole family uses Tello because they have different plans that meet all of our needs. I recently ordered a different sim card so that I could have an extra line for a trip. It got lost in the mail so I contacted Tello customer service to cancel that line. They did so immediately and refunded my money with no issue. Never had service like that from other service providers before. I highly recommend Tello.

Easy to use on your own w/out hand holding!
I've been using Tello for many years now, and I've always found the service / coverage to be as good or better than any others I've used. The best thing, however, is how easy everything is to do online. You don't have to call an agent to get port out details, for example, which is a breath of fresh air. Try that some places and you're on the phone with a foreign call center for 15 minutes.

I’ve been using Tello now for about 6 months and it’s been smooth sailing so far. Sometimes there seems to not be cellular data, when web pages and apps stalls, but could be the location gets a weak signal. Calling Cust Service is easy, quickly responded with support in a caring and professional way. Let’s not forget the great prices in the building of your own personal plan accordingly to individual needs.

This service is absolutely fantastic! We used to be with T-Mobile for years, but we switched over to Tello for a better price, and the signal quality is just as good as T-Mobile's. We’ve enjoyed over a year and a half of flawless service, even adding an extra line! I wholeheartedly recommend Tello—it's been a game-changer for us!

Great service with great price!
My family has been using Tello for a few years now. Tello provides a great service with great price with no hidden fees or surprises. I also love the free international call service as my dad who doesn’t always have his smart phone on lives overseas, and I can call his land line anytime. The customer service has been great, being able to talk to a real person if you need to. While the price of many things are going up, I can’t believe that Tello’s service got even better (more data for the same price) a while ago! I love Tello and I hope the company stays in business for a long time!
