The Greatest!

What makes my experience great? I got this service for my daughter and I love the fact the she gets notifications when she's nearing the end of her time. I like the fact that, just incase, I can pay for extended time. I could also always change the plan on the phone. I love the affordability of each plan and the fact that that I can transfer my phone number over. It has overall been a wonderful experince.

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!

Family plan

I have been with Tello for my own line for a few years. I recently went to the family plan to add a line for my wife. The addition was seamless. I have never had a disruption with Tello; and when I have occasion to call them the agent has been responsive and the result has been positive. To the best of my knowledge the pricing is the best available.

Cheap and reliable - must have carrier!

My family has been using Tello for over 2 years now (switched from T-mobile and ported our numbers), and we've recommended it to all our friends and relatives (and anyone else who is willing to listen). We love the flexibility of the plans, the extremely reasonable prices, and the reliability of the service. So glad we found Tello and highly, highly recommend it over the dominance of all the "big carriers." Our only suggestion to Tello is that there should be a way to effectuate a plan change in advance for the next billing cycle rather than having to wait until the day before the automatic plan renewal and remember to change the plan.

I use these phones for my kids it's…

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.

Took a chance and switched to Tello

Took a chance and switched to Tello, moving my phone number I've had for over a decade. It's been about a year now and I can say that I'm 100% satisfied. Coverage is good and you just can't beat the prices of the various plans. I've now switched my entire family to Tello. I would highly recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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.
