RP AT&T vs. Verizon - Our Experience:
I'm on Redpockets AT&t and my wife is on Redpockets Verizon. 3 years with Red Pocket.

Call Quality:
My wife has been very happy with the call quality on Verizon. She uses her phone for office meetings from time to time with no issue. I use my AT&t red pocket exclusively for my business and personal calls and have been very happy with the call quality. We do not have a home phone line (who does these days?).

Data Quality:
My wife seems to be affected by peak time throttling as every once in awhile it feels like her phone is running on 2G. It is very short times in areas she normally receives good throughput, so that is why we suspect it is peak time throttling. It doesn't happen enough that we worry about it but at the same time it is frustrating when it does happen. With AT&t red pocket I have never experienced peak time throttling issues and have been very happy with their data throughput. The only issue I can say that I've had with AT&t red pocket data is that every once in awhile I get an error message saying that I was not allowed to hotspot. However, typically a reboot would take care of that. I use hotspot a lot when we travel on our road trips. My wife has not had any issues using hotspot with her Android phone and Verizon red pocket, though, it's my understanding that now RP say they don't support Verizon red pocket hotspotting.

Customer Service:
The few times that we've had to contact customer service they have been available to take our call or chat. Only frustrating time I had with support was when we contacted them because we had a SIM card go bad. Getting them to believe that I knew it was a bad sim card was pointless as they have to do their job their way. However after going through their "by the book" support steps they sent out a replacement Sim and everything has worked fine since then. I wouldn't say it's as good as Verizon over the counter walk-in store service, but it's pretty decent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend if you're okay using chat support.

Why RP and 2 differnt services:
We take a lot of motorcycle road trips and coverage is important to us so that is why we use two different services to increase our chances of having coverage when the other might not. When splitting up the different carriers, red pocket is definitely the least expensive way to do it that we have found.

Our Phones/Location:
Just in case you were wondering, we're both running new flagship Samsung. I run the Zfold 3 and she has the latest Galaxy Note. We live in the Tigard Oregon a suburb of Portland. We often travel the the back Mountain roads of the western states.

As always your results May vary 😁
Stacks with targeted AMEX OFFER $5 back on $15 via EBAY.
I've used all three on RP. AT&T is the best for data and Verizon is the best for reception. I've gotten frustrated multiple times with Verizon's data speed due to their throttling and I'd stick with AT&T if data speed is important to you.

Quote from KevinHKCN :
If you buy this to renew your plan, remember to renew it the day the plan expires. I renewed today, and it can only extend 360 days from today. I am on the phone with CS, and she is very confused. It has been 20 mins, and she still don't know what is the correct expiration date. I told her the correct date, and she said she need put me on hold and check it...

They should fix their system. It is not difficult. So much time is wasted.
I got the same answer. Apparently the renewl date is not the expiration date.

Plus they went ahead, gave me no notification. and renewed my plan when before the renewal date by two days and claimed I had set it up for automatic renewal, when not only did I have notes that I had not checked off for that during processing my credit card, but distinctly remember doing so. So they have many problems!!

Subject: Red Pocket Activation Code

Welcome to Red Pocket Mobile!
Please keep this email for future reference.

You will need this Activation Code to start your phone service: XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Your starter kit includes an instructional flyer and one universal SIM card for your network selection. In order to activate service on your device, you will need to wait for your starter kit to arrive.

If you selected the option for Renewal/Existing SIM, then there is no need to wait! Use your activation code to start service with an existing Red Pocket or Sprint SIM card, or refill your existing Red Pocket number at RedPocket.com/MyAccount.

Once you are ready, Red Pocket makes activating a new service easy. Just visit MyEasyActivation.com to get started.

This code is valid for ninety (90) calendar days from your mailed kit's delivery date.

If you need more LTE data, minutes, or text messages during your monthly cycle, just visit MyEasyRefill.com.

For additional help or general questions, please visit our help desk at Help.RedPocket.com or contact our friendly customer support through eBay messaging.

I had the same issue. But them I re-read "the plan is for 360 days of service" a year is 365 days. Meaning you will get about 5 days less than a year when renewing.

What's the deal with Red Pocket on delivery for this? I'm over a week after purchase AND after the expected delivery date and still nothing. I sent them a message on eBay and got nothing. Seems their customer service isn't chiming in on this thread anymore either

To those waiting for codes, please call CS at (712)775-8777, and tell them you still have not received the activation code. They activated my service on the spot!! So call them now.

You will need your ebay order #, your ebay account username, and your email address, to help them activate the service.

If they give you the runaround, tell them to escalate the issue.

I looked at USM which is the same monthly plan price apparently but it appears they may charge a $2 monthly service fee on top, from my understanding. Would also like to know from other user experince. Last month they had a promo code for a free SIM starter kit using a promo on their website and likely still are.

The same monthly plan?!?! This is 8GB monthly plan, USM is 12GB monthly plan. I don't think 4GB is that negligible.

@Red-PocketD How do I get my PIN code if snail mail do not arrive? I ordered two of these on Nov 28, 2021. Replied on ebay about not getting the mail a few weeks later. It was REJECTED for refund (Did not request that!). The online chat wait time is 150 minutes.
-----
Did a online chat at 8:01am EST. No wait at all and got issue resolved.
