Tello is a great option
In my experience, Tello just works as expected. No surprises. It’s super easy to tailor a plan to fit your needs, and make changes whenever needed. Straightforward, easy and effective.

Real help from a real person is just a phone call away.
After stopping my service for 4 months, I wanted to restore my service plan but didn't know how. I called the Tello contact number and after a brief wait was greeted by Fernanda in the most friendly manner. She took me through the process on the web site and in minutes the task was done.

It was very easy!
It was very easy. I initially wanted to buy it in small payments for added convenience; however, to do that would meant opening another account with somebody else if I were to break it down into smaller payments, so I just bought it at the full price to avoid further complications. Would've been better to just have Tello deduct more from my account monthly, but still super easy & really good!

Hi, impressing experience with Tello Mobile
Hi, Tello Mobile is one of my best experience of my life, the customer service is so amazing very competent and always kind. I’m really impressed. Laura Grageda has been in particular wonderful and for me at the moment that I’m flat out from other companies (scammers) that customer service does not work or exist at all, has been a really big relief and joy. Thank you very much Tello

So far, the experience has been great, no issues with service, and affordable. You can customize your plan, which is amazing. The only possible concern I have is if I travel outside the US or somewhere more remote. This is a great option if you're on a budget.

Still loving Tello years later!
I switched to Tello years ago, and I’ve never looked back. The service has been consistently excellent with strong signal, no dropped calls, and reliable data wherever I go. It’s rare to find a carrier that stays this good over time, but Tello delivers. The pricing is unbeatable. I’m paying a fraction of what I used to, and I’m getting better service. Plus, their customer support is always human and always available with kindness and care, no runaround. Tello is easily my favorite carrier. Affordable, dependable, and genuinely customer-focused. If you’re thinking about switching, do it. You won’t regret it.

Works abroad.
I switched to Tello because I was leaving with 2 USA phones that didn't want to lose. My previous company told me I could after a while of roaming. When I arrived I needed it in the airport but it didn't work for a few hours. It's kind of complicated to me to understand the way my plans worked to get either internet, or the calls or the messages. Now I got the unlimited plan for both numbers and I hope is working with no more maneuvers. Customer service is excellent so I would advise somebody in my situation to do the same.

Tello support and service
This company is one of the few of its kind. They respond to emails in about 30 minutes no matter what time it is and they understand when mistakes are made so they compensate, they don't try to steal people's money. Their services are also very satisfactory at a low cost and have a lot of benefits. In Greece the cost for such benefits is three times higher. I would highly recommend Tello, with its greatest advantage as I said, immediate service. * This is the second time in my life giving a 5-star review for a company

The entire call went flawlessly
The entire call went flawlessly. I had the opportunity to speak with 2 great agents. Both were very knowledgeable in their trade. Both were beyond fantastic! Both granted great patience dealing with an old man. I can be slow at technology sometimes. Not a single moment did I feel rushed. Not a single moment did either display aggravation when I asked them to repeat their instructions, however, their instructions were both clear and concise, it was me not understanding or getting lost on the phone screens. I have been with Tello right at 5 years. This was the VERY FIRST time I ever had to call and it ended up being an iPhone issue. Tello is nothing short of spectacular!!

Excellent customer service and no problems so far...
After being a customer with Tello for a year now, I can say I'm very happy not only with the phone service itself, but also with the excellent customer service they offer (both in English and also in Spanish, 24/7). Their HUMAN representatives are not only nice and friendly but also very attentive to their customers. Especially, the last representative I talked to a few days ago (her name was Julia) was very professional and supportive. What a difference from working with other major phone companies! I also use the feature that allows me to call my family abroad at no extra cost, and the phone service within the US has been working great as of today as well. I also recently switched my wife's phone number to Tello, and the experience has been simple and easy. I hope this service -and the rates they offer- will continue offering the same level of quality in the future.

Inexpensive flexible plans
Inexpensive many flexible plans, no price hikes, no contracts, change plans easily, carry over data if you renew early. My only gripe is I prefer Verizon over T-Mobile. Because T-Mobiles coverage in rural areas I think is a little spotty compared to Verizon.

I’d say I’ve been a customer for approximately a year. Never had an issue unlike Visible and US Mobile. Visible was the worst experience when I first tried them. Data issues such as no service/internet issues and getting ahold of customer service taking 3/4 hours when I had that issue along with a lot of lengthy back and forth. I think they have fixed it since then. I’ve had a service/data issue with US Mobile before that went in for a few weeks but at least you can chat with them and get them on the phone if need be they’ll call you. Google Fi. You can request a call back. Tello never had to contact them for anything and the data is sufficient enough I can usually play Apple Music as much as I want for the whole month and I do a lot of driving as Truck driver some times I run out with 10 day or less left on my cycle when I’m streaming music and YouTube

I had to cancel mt CC b/c I feared it had been misused. In all that stress, I forgot that my Tello payment was due and promptly declined. So, I called Tello and explained that my new card was in the mail but hadn't arrived yet. The agent listened, understood and helped me, without charging a fee like some big carriers (e.g. ATT) do. That's what I call excellent customer service. A real person, who understands their customers' needs and helps. Kudos! I love my Tello!

Tonight I also had a positive experience with their customer service. They responded to my query within 30 minutes and resolved my question quickly. I highly recommend Tello!

Good esim
I used this E-SIM card for a trip to the United States (New York and various places in Florida). The price is very cheap and the connection was perfect. The real problem is the support. I wanted to keep my phone number once I returned to Italy (since I had connected it to some apps), but after having to reset my phone for various reasons, I couldn't install the eSIM because it asked for a security code that I didn't have. I could reset it, but to do so, I needed to receive a text message on the same SIM. Support couldn't help me, so I had to cancel my subscription.

If they stay like this, I'll happily use this for the rest of my life.

I have used Tello for myself and my family when travelling to the U.S. this summer. No worries about data usage en cost attached, when travelling around. Especially with teenagers a big advantage. Process of ordering several eSims and installing them, was a straight forward process. Also the cancellation after returning home was easy. If you plan on travelling to the U.S., I absolutely recommend Tello.
