And use a referral when creating an account to get $10 in Tello Dollars which can be redeemed for the second month.

In addition to good customer service, Tello has great flexibility if you want to bump up to a higher data plan for just one month, then drop back down. Plus if you manually renew a day early, the unused data will roll to the next month.

Visible has their basic unlimited plan at $25/month for years, the only thing that this Tello plan beats Visible is, you can use all high speed data for hotspot while Visible only allows you to use 5GB for hotspot.

Also, Helium mobile has $20/month unlimited plan.

Lastly, if you still want to get your monthly phone bill lower, you can go to costco and get the $10/month T-Mobile hotspot plan, and a $5/month hello mobile basic plan, use both in a dual sim phone, so you can get unlimited data/calling/text at $15/month.

If you don't need unlimited plan, as of now I think the ultra mobile 3GB monthly plan for $10/month is the best. Please note that it doesn't include the tax and other fees, so it will be about $12 per month actually.

Also, data + unlimited texting plans dropped. 2GB for $6 now, 1GB for $5.

However, the slow data after blowing through your allotment is now gone.

You've got it backwards - Tello caps hotspot at 5GB. Visible has no cap for hotspot.

Thanks for pointing that out. But "Visible includes mobile hotspot with unlimited data at speeds up to 5 Mbps".

Really glad to see some downward pressure on price per gb. I think a lot of this has to do with newcomers/less well known carriers like helium, lexvor, mobile x, and good2go. The 5gb for $14 is a solid deal. Tello used to have $10 for 1gb, now it's 2gb

I like Tello and have been using them for a while, but I don't see why this is a front page deal. Rates are their normal rates. They recently increased data for each plan, but this is not a special sale or a deal.

A good thing about Tello that many people don't know is, you can roll your minutes/data. And, Tello dollars don't expire unless you have zero activity for more than 6 months. I've been porting out and back to take advantages of deals. There is also no cap for referral credit, which is nice.

Good2go will give you 3gb a month for $120 and rides on ATT or T-Mobile, although you have to pay for the whole year up front. Taxes and fees are extra but quick check tells me they're less than ultra. Of course it depends on your location

If you're talking about Tello, no it wasn't....I've had Tello for the last few years and paid $10/mo for 1GB data. It's now $10/mo for 2GB data.

Today I signed up for the 5GB of data plan for $14/mo....which previous to this was $19/mo.
