Seems like a pretty good deal. I liked Tello when I tried them, but that was back in the Sprint coverage days I think. They are T-Mobile coverage now, but a top benefit was their support quality iirc. Generally positive experience from me.

Yes, I agree. While there have been posts on SD lately complaining about customer service, all of my interactions with support have been great. I contacted them two weeks ago because I redeemed $20 in Tello dollars to a paygo balance last January, then they changed the referral program to make earning more difficult for the referrer. I complained that I never would have redeemed that much knowing about the plan changes and asked them to convert part of the balance back to Tello dollars. They responded within hours with a full refund of the order from almost a year prior and restored the $20 in Tello dollars, even though I had used about $3 of it. Since our line is on a $5/month plan, that will give me another four months of service!

Are you serious? How would it benefit me to lie about my customer service experience? Email attached.

Community Reviews

Tello's unlimited talk, text, and 50GB promo stands out as a low-cost month-to-month plan on T-Mobile towers, with solid coverage, simple account management, and free eSIM or a physical SIM that can wait 30 days to activate. The deal also has minimal taxes and fees in some zip codes, free international calling to 60 countries, and easy plan changes or porting. The main cautions are that unlimited plans do not roll over, manual renewal can void the promotion, and some accounts have seen 5G, call, or port-out hiccups. It is a flexible prepaid option if you want cheap service without a long contract.

  • Taxes and fees can be low and vary by zip code, with some examples showing under a dollar for monthly charges.

  • Tello can provide immediate eSIM activation while physical SIM activation can be delayed up to 30 days for extra planning time.

    lipagoldMtF4392MtF4392MtF4392

  • Tello can offer rollover for minutes and data on non-unlimited plans when renewing in advance, and it can reinstate lost allowances after data or minutes drop.

    RefundroidMtF4392MtF4392

  • Tello support can resolve account issues quickly, including restoring Tello Dollars and issuing a full refund after plan or redemption changes.

  • Unlimited plans do not roll over unused data, and manual renewal or plan changes can void promotions and affect rollover eligibility.

    MtF4392MtF4392MtF4392

  • Port-out information for new numbers can be delayed by about nine days, which can complicate quick number transfers.

    MtF4392MtF4392MtF4392

  • 5G upgrade and service issues can cause no-service periods, and cancellation may require extended troubleshooting before the account can be closed.

  • After primary data runs out, low-speed data removal can break group texting and other basic connectivity features.

I usually like to pick the cheapy special Tello $8 plan, so I can port out the next day into the US Mobile new member plan. Rinse and repeat every year to take advantage of new subscriber promos 😁

Is a Sim Card needed for this? I basically want an add on number that I can use for work. Kinda like a textnow app but something that can work for verification purposes as well.

I got this deal and am using it on my cellular iPad Pro. No issues at all, however I can't seem to share the cellular connection as a hotspot.

Tello is pretty good! Ported from AT&T 2 years ago and have had no issues. Best part, free international calling including Japan and Korea. Plus I am saving 150/mo now for 3 lines compared to AT&T. I am dumbfounded as I only discovered Tello 2 yrs ago! Should have switched much sooner

If you get a new number, there is a waiting period before they provide port out information. The last time I did it, it was about 9 days. But it will definitely be available to port before the month ends. And you can turn off autopay right away to ensure you don't get charged for a second month. If you port in your own number, that can be ported out at any time.

I used Tello for several years, great option, worked well. As a light user though I found the Helium Zero plan the best deal out there!

Do a "mock" order. Taxes will be listed prior to having to place the order.
