How do we compare?

We do things differently. Not only do we have a great 24/7 Human Customer Support, but there are a few other features that set Tello apart from other affordable carriers.

Tello is the perfect solution for having a US cell phone while living abroad. I have always had reliable service with Tello and recently had a good experience with a helpful "live" customer service rep when I needed to change my number to a new phone. I highly recommend them.

Excellent Service!

The agent was extremely helpful in first getting my eSim activated, and then making sure I could still do video chats with FaceTime, which is quite important for me.

I live on two continents

I live on two continents, so I routinely change my phone plan. Tello has enabled me to do this efficiently, easily, and very inexpensively. The service coverage while in the US is terrific, and while outside the US, the wifi calling / texting features work well. I am completely satisfied and recommend Tello to others.
