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

Tello, a Thing of Beauty, a rarity since "Citizens United"

Tello has shown my family for more than 3 years that even a corporation can be a good thing, a thing of beauty. You offer a service, you have a deep sense of social responsibility. Ever since "Citizens United," the US corporate world has lost its rudder. You show them and us the way. Thank you, Tello. You have a superb team of committed like-minded associates.
