Words don't speak louder than actions

Words don't speak louder than actions. Somebody told me about Tello so I signed up. I was happy I became addicted. Wouldn't you if the reason you walked out of decades old prior Telecom relationship is because you weren't allowed to make one international phone call. That's when it's fun began International call free, cheap like hell oops inexpensive and the international calls are free I mean absolutely free. I made a list for all the people I wanted to be in touch for decades and taking notes on where all they have been what all they have done what all they plan to do with themselves need as astonishing to know how much I last touch. Should I say thank you Tello. How can I when that is only half the story. Data/Data he is the driver of the New World my friend and I am using oodles of it 35 GB wasn't enough I paid extra then out of blue they send me this letter we got you, you have 50 GB now I thought they were kidding I go check to see in the middle of the month they increased the quarter from 35 to 50. Who does that? This is as close to every lunch as we can get. I wanted to say thank you. So I took my old baby out and signed up for a second line. I am not much of a video guy so everywhere I look there is data galore. Do you have a problem with that? The day I realize I have a problem with that all I have to do is Drop a line. The way you set up right now it's not going to happen. One acts as a back up, when he active the other one is passive. Both get notified no matter who gets called. Can you tell I am in Stratosphere actually make it Ionosphere. Have a wonderful day.😎.

Tello s perfect for people like me

Tello s perfect for people like me. I really don't like or use cell phones, but I live in the country so having a phone in case of emergency is important to me. Tello is by far the least expensive way to have a cell phone for those rare instances I need one. Tello is cheap, reliable, and completely pay-as-you-go.
