I have a Sprint SIM card that I used on Tello. Is it going to work w this deal, as a new customer?
You will need a new sim AND a new phone for this deal or any Tello line, unless the phone you were using with the Sprint sim does both CDMA (sprint) and GSM (t-mobile). In that case you will only need a new (gsm) sim.

That's the whole point of using GV - all your calls (incoming and outgoing) go under the GV number, over the internet or through call forwarding. The "new number" is primarily for data / forwarding, it's not being shared with any of the contacts.
So you have to rely on GV app? It's not convenient for iMessage community.

Agree. It's a tradeoff - do you want the convenience with GV, or with iMessage?

In my case - I'm on Android, so iMessage isn't something that I look for. Situations vary.
I prefer the ability to keep my upfront costs low (Android vs iPhone) and running costs low (GV vs contract or long standing prepaid); I'm ok with changing my sim, since it's primarily for "data" and not for the "number".

In the case of iPhone users - if you can find a low cost plan with eSIM for a primary number, then it may still be worthwhile changing sims for the "data"; if not, find a provider that works for you, and ignore these occasional offers that won't work out.

After 6 months, your options are

1) Renew with Tello : current prices are $14 per month for the 2 GB plan, or you can modify your plan as required

2) Port out to some other place, if you want to retain the number and get service

3) Terminate, if you don't need it (example folks who pick up new sims / plans for use with GV).

Can anyone explain to me what this whole gsm thing is about with tello? My device a moto z2 should be capable, does that mean I just need to swap a capable sim card? Where does one get gsm cards?

This coupon code no longer works.

Try coupon code 'DN30' instead. It gave me a 30% discount which brings the price down by an additional 10% to $34.30.

For light users you can also mix and match plans with Paygo when this deal is over. They don't promote it much but it's been good here with data plan only and paygo minutes/texts at 1c. Getting near 30megs out here in the sticks. Plug in a few referrals and it's practically free. My early rollovers are over 6GB now.

I think all plans including data only plans come with unlimited texts. It's only the minutes that need higher plan to be used.

yes, good point, all plans do include unlimited text. It's just the Paygo that pays a penny each. 1/1/2c m/t/mb is pretty good without a plan. Thanks. *edit, I retract that last part, forgot about the minimum refill part, sort of killed paygo only.

Yes.

A workaround is to use Google Voice (GV) as your principle number and forward GV to the number you get with this deal. In 6 months, rinse and repeat.

Also - refer yourself the 2nd, and subsequent, times to get Tello Dollars (usually 10 Tello dollars each to referrer and referee) to extend the service you get a bit beyond 6 months.
