Trade in values are $hit IMO as far as older iPhones, didn't check androids but probably not any better.

If the unlock policy was 6-month which aligns with their free trial period, this could've been a much better deal. You can easily get $800-$1000 off on a 24-30months locking period.

Red Pocket is terrible. I switched to them and I'm having a hard time switching out with confidence that I won't lose my number in the "process'. Data speeds are horrendous. I was with Cricket (ATT) and Red Pocked (ATT as well) is data speeds are garbage using the same phone in the same areas.

They don't charge sales tax for price of the phone (at least for TX) which in itself is a significant saving if you buying pro max. This deal makes more sense if you are paying lot more for your monthly bill. The money saved over 6 months can be factored in as well .

I have a s10 plus but I think I'm going to keep it as a back up. Specs are still better than these budget phones a lower tier flagships.

Is it safe to assume that this will only lock to the first sim you put in? So you can always just put a Tmobile Sim in if you wanted to use Tmobile?

Thank you for the feedback! The bill savings is $300 (or more depending on your current phone carrier bill)

We're sorry to hear you had issues with your experience and seem to be having trouble switching out. While we're sad to see you go, we are always happy to support customers in keeping their number and using the service that's best for them. Cricket and Red Pocket use the same underlying network and technology. It is possible there are tower issues occurring now that were not occurring in your area when you were on Cricket. If you DM us we will research the problem.

You can pre-order from Red Pocket at full retail and still get the benefit of free shipping and eligibility for 24 month 0% financing! Instead of choosing buy a plan select "Buy Now Unlocked"

For purchases that receive an instant discount and 6 months of free unlimited service, the phone will be locked to Red Pocket for just 12 months. At the end of 12 months you can take the phone elsewhere, though we hope you'll love the service and stay!

Can we switch to lower plan after 6 months?
