The service is amazing for me. I've been using them for years. The AT&T network is fast and does not disappoint. I've used Boost every now and then, but received horrible coverage and felt ATT via Red Pocket is the better service. YMMV

They have the option to get T-Mobile or Verizon if desired but I'm very comfortable with the ATT coverage.

How long after purchasing would I have to activate the code? My current redpocket plan is still good until October.

Also, can I buy 2 or more of them, save to use later in subsequent years? I understand the price can be lower with more GB. It's a theoretical question.

This company charges quite a few fees if you buy directly from their website. And no matter where you purchase a red pocket plan, if you want visual voicemail you must pay $1 per month.
I tried it twice in the past, worst customer service ever both times.

I've been on red pocket for a couple of months and I have regretted it, now I'm locked for a whole year until I can get my phones unlocked.

The main issue is I get frequent, almost daily disconnects from the network, the only way to fix this is restarting the phone, I've had multiple chats with customer support trying to get this fixed with no improvements, you might think it's not too bad having to restart your phone every day... but it gets tiring.

Also in my area data prioritization seems to be noticeable as compared to other providers, I frequently experience subpar service or data, it's not super bad but definitely noticeable.

I'd recommend anyone looking at this deal to look for a different provider, I've tried AT&T prepaid and it was a world of difference even though it's the same network, also similar price.
That's a SIM card issue.

The web fees/taxes net out to be less than the eBay sales tax for me on the higher prices plans. You have to do the math and compare. The web has a flat recovery fee but lower federal/state taxes/fees. eBay uses a straight state sales taxes. This is for new customers, renewals via eBay can be had with no tax if you ship to your beach house.

Yeah. Apparently there was some kind of security issue with their eBay account. Not sure I trust them at this point. Still selling on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/s?me=A2JAX...PDKIKX0DER

I have redpocket for a year.... I will not be renewing. The fact I cannot change the number of rings to a reasonable number before it goes to THEIR voicemail is straight dumb. AKA, GV voicemail doesn't work....

I have a iphone 14 mpua3ll/a. I used to stay with Cricket. Now the red pocket deal caught my eyes. I have 2 questions:
1. my phone uses esim, if I pay in ebay, can red pocket give me the code in email since I don't need sim card
2. I'm kind of confused on gsma, gsmt. Which one I should choose?

thank you

be careful.. these cheaters reduced the data to 5gb without our knowldege on two of our lines. We got 10gb first three months and then reduced to 5gb. We always wondered why the data was running out so fast. Check your monthly renewal regularly.

When I called, I got the data added but did not get any explanation, which made me suspcicious about their business model.

Looks like they dropped the price another $11 to $189. FYI? Hopefully this isn't something someone already pointed out.

Edit: Looks like its $200 with tax. Sorry about that

I used to be a big fanboy of RP and even have three family members signed up but I regret it now. Their customer support is simply atrocious! My renewal with 5GB/month will appear as 100MB on about every other month. I have to remember my monthly date and check to see I got all of my data allotted to me. And then when I contact them they say "no, you have the 5GB plan" and I tell them yes, that's true but I've used all of my data three days into my plan and upon checking my account says I have the 100MB plan. I mean it's a mess!

And it's not that they have poor customer service, that's one thing. It's that they obviously have learned to say all the right words, enough to give you confidence that your problem is rectified, and then once you go a day or two, the problem still exists. You call, chat or email with them and they act like they are on top of it again, rinse and repeat.

It's just not worth the hassle, believe me (a five+ year user overseeing three other accounts).

I'm pretty positive that you have buy an esim from their website for $2. Then you can apply the code from ebay. I'd confirm it with CS but I think that's the way.
Choose the one that fits your plan, not all plans are available for all networks, and has the best coverage in your locale.

https://www.redpocket.com/shop/sim Be sure to choose GSMA or GSMT esim (tab).

I got the prepaid ATT unlimited call/text 16gb yearly plan for $300, went to the dollar store for the one time 20% off coupon for $300 prepaid card. For me it was $240 with $1.40 911/tax service fee. I ended up using a 2nd number to add a 2nd year.
Did this deal end?
