You may think that 1500-2000 minutes is enough for you. But think, what if you have a loved one in a hospital meaning more usage and no one can reach you. They don't send any warning texts they just cut you off in middle of a conversation. I hope one day thee FCC sues them and screw them for millions like they did to tracfone a few years ago.

What bugs me is every time I contact them, they ignore my ticket and wont comment on it and only want reset sim. If you reset sim for 5 times a day and still not working, its time to try something else. If the sim does not activate and 3 different apple carrier unlock iphones, its time to try something else.
So far the few I dealt with only want to do reset and APN. There is no APN on new ios unless carrier allows it, only android, This makes setup extremely easy. The guy didn't believe me, he wanted screen shots. That means lack of training. Its not his fault, its RP not giving CSR enough training.

I am not sure about At& T in that area , but I see T-Mobile is spotty too.. (Forsyth ?)
I purchased 8 GB annual plan for myself and 3 GB annual plan for my wife. In order to try Red Pocket, I purchased $5 for any 30-day plan. I ported into Red Pocket from Ultra Mobile using GSMT SIM (30-day plan) on Dec 15 and have been having issues with incoming calls. Most of them go to voicemail directly. I chatted with reps more than 10 times since Dec 15 and still no success using Pixel 3a. I even tried using another GSMT SIM after activating it.
I am only getting under 0.5-2.0 Mbps LTE download speed and about 2-14 Mbps upload speed, if I use mobile network inside my house. I checked multiple times since Dec 15.
I tried two Red Pocket GSMT SIMs on an older Samsung S6 Verizon unlocked phone (has some T-Mobile bands) and I am getting incoming calls. No issue with SMS (others and Red Pocket 7039 for balance info).
My wife still has Ultra Mobile on her Pixel 3a. I tried inserting her SIM into my phone and it works great (incoming calls and I could see WiFi calling under Mobile Network).
I also put my Red Pocket GSMT SIM into my wife's Pixel 3a and put her Ultra Mobile into mine (can make calls, Wi-Fi calling available) and Red Pocket GSMT SIM is having a similar issue (no incoming calls most of the time) on her phone too. Thus, both Pixel 3a phones are having issues with RP GSMT.
I chatted with the Red Pocket rep three times and enabled WiFi calling but it does not show up on my Pixel 3a. Last year, I called UltraMobile once and WiFi calling showed up under Advanced in Mobile Networks.
My SMS to other folks does work well. I can receive SMS from others and credit card companies (sending message about refund or charges, etc.).
I had to chat multiple times with several reps to activate short codes (verification texts that we get from banks and other websites) for two-factor authentication. Each time, they said it was activated but nothing happened. One time, the rep said as per terms and conditions, I cannot get it. Later, another rep activated and it worked fine for a couple of times. Now it is not working again.
But my SMS message to RP (7039) to get balance isn't working well for most of the time since Dec 15. It mostly says "waiting for connection" when I send "BAL" or "GETINFO". Once in a while, it goes through. Today, I discovered something. Whenever I activate Airplane mode on and then turn it off, the "Bal" status changes from "waiting for connection" to "sent". I also get incoming calls for sometime, and then the issue comes back (incoming calls and message not going to RP) eventhough SMS to others works fine all the time. I didn't try this method on my wife's Pixel 3a after inserting RP GSMT SIM.
I tried many commonly used remedies: (a) Under System, I did reset of Wi-Fi, mobile and bluetooth (b) I even tried erase all data - factory reset.
I have another 30-day RP plan for my wife. I am hesitant to port her to Red Pocket GSMT. I also purchased two annual plans (myself and wife) during BF 2020 sale. Few years ago, I was with Red Pocket CDMA for at least 2 years using Samsung S6 Verizon unlocked phone and I did not have any issues.
Any comments? Is this a Pixel 3a and Android 11 issue or Red Pocket GSMT issue? TIA.
