Freeup Mobile's existing free plan of 500 talk/text with 100 MB data has been changed to now 1000 talk/text with no data. Great for people who just need to talk and text. The 1000 allotment is any combination of talk/text. Runs on the AT&T network.

AT&T 3G NETWORK SHUTDOWN
Hello user,
More advanced and faster wireless networks are on the way. 3G networks for all carriers are shutting down across the country throughout 2022.

Once the 3G network is shutdown, all services, voice, messaging, and data will stop working if you don't have a VoLTE capable and compatible phone.
Action Required for:

Your Phone May Not Work
Our records indicate your phone(s) may not work once the AT&T 3G network is fully retired on February 22, 2022. You will likely need a new phone to continue uninterrupted service.

But then i go to this site below and input my number. 1 number is and another not. is it cell device itself not the SIM?

I didn't get that email. It's the phone not the SIM. That site says I'm not impacted.

i guess it's time to upgrade to a 4g LTE or even 5g phone then?

here's what they said about the sim, new phone means 4g lte or 5g phones


What about my SIM card?

Your FreeUp Mobile SIM card will still work in your new device. Simply put your SIM card in your new phone.

The Phone/Device for this phone number is not impacted, no action necessary!

Your current phone/device registered on the network is showing VoLTE capable, so this phone will continue to work after the 3G shutdown.

Yes, Moto XT failed -- DAYS after the warned failure date -- but Moto Z2 worked when I inserted the same SIM.

It was wife's phone that failed, Not a happy camper -- she's been traumatized ever since I had her on Freedompop, with static, delays, lag, dropped words/syllables, everything you can think of.
