How do I set up my phone for internet access and picture messaging (MMS)?

If you are struggling to send a picture message or access the internet on your phone, you'll need to update your settings. There's two ways to do this:

1. Text 'SETUP' to 6700
If you have a compatible Android device, you'll receive a notification to automatically install your settings. If you are on an iPhone or a non-compatible Android device, you'll receive a message with manual instructions. Simply follow the steps.
2. Update manually
Sometimes the good-old-fashioned way is best. Check out our step-by-step instructions on how to set up your data for Android and iPhone devices.


Setting Up Your Data for Android

Select Settings. (located within Apps or the pull-down notifications tray)
Scroll down to the Network Connections menu section.
Select the More Networks icon.
Ensure that the Mobile Data is enabled.
Select the Access Point Names or APN menu option.
Select the "+" plus sign to add a new Access Point Name.

Enter the following information into the fields:
Cellular Data
Name – Ultra
APN – Wholesale
Proxy – (leave blank)
Port – 8080
Username & Password – (leave blank)

When I click on the 5GB and 10GB plans, I'm taken to the 2gb for 6mo and 12mo plans. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

I've been happy for the last 6 months on my 2GB plan. Hope it's still cheap when I need to renew next year.

They support short code, they had a week where it wasn't working. No issues prior to that and short codes working since then

I waited too long to renew. They raised six months 2gb plan from $90 to $108. So far , I am happy with the service.

No BingeOn, I think that's reserved for T-Mo customers only.
