Updates to a new plan are immediate

Updates to a new plan are immediate. I recently had to add more minutes to a family member's plan and the change was also immediately after the final click. No turning the phone off and back on. Love Tello!

Fast, easy, and customizable phone plans

I needed a easy customizable plan for my daughter and came across Tello. Signing up was fast, and very easy. I ended up getting a second line for my youngest daughter as well. Service has been great, no issues at all with dropped calls or missing texts. You can bring your own phone too. With Tello, you can customize your plan for any amount of calling, texting, and data, which is perfect if you need more data for one line, but not as much for a second or third line. Tello is also no stings attached. No contracts, and easy to start a new line. It took less than 10 minutes, and my daughters’ phones were on, and making/receiving calls and texts! I highly recommend Tello!

I use these phones for my kids it's really nice that for $21 three kids have a phone and I can GPS track them because even with the smallest amount of data thing it'll run out quickly but just switches it to really slow internet so I can still track my kids I can still so comfortable letting them go and do things they're all in different sports and they carpool with different parents so there's a lot of reassurance for me that my kids are okay at a really affordable price beening using them since last school year.

Tello is the lowest priced telephone service you will find. My wife and I have been using it over six years. We pay $15.30 (including tax) for unlimited talk and text, plus 2GB data per month.

Wife Loves Tello

I signed up my wife and she just loves the service. She seldom uses voice, so the unlimited texting really works for her. Thanks for the great service at a cost that would make even a miser happy.
