✨ Unlimited talk & text to keep the conversations going
✨ Free hotspot to connect other devices
✨ No contracts to tie you down
✨ Fast eSIM activation to get connected in a flash

This offer is valid for new customers & existing Tello customers who add a new line to their account by Nov 9, 2026 (11:59 PM EST).
Please note that the promotional pricing applies only to the newly activated line and cannot be transferred to or used on an existing line.
You'll pay $10 per month for the first 3 months of service. After 3 months, the plan will renew at the standard price of $15/month.
Any changes to the plan, including cancellation or downgrade, will result in the loss of the promotional pricing.

I have the $10 for 3 months special that went up to $25 for 50gb. Well worth it imo. Even better the unused data rolls over to the next month up to 100gb.

The plan is good for 30 days, so wait until 10/29. Also, Tello imposes a waiting period before you can get port out information for a new number. I think it was about 10 days the last time I got a new number before I could get the porting info.

When is the last day to order this online? How many days until you have to activate the plan? So you have to activate he plan soon after ordering it?

US Mobile had a deal where it says if you buy the plan, you have 90 days to activate the plan. Mint Mobile had a dead where you have 45 days. How many days is this with Tello?

Can someone explain the unused data rolling over up to 100gb? So you can roll it over to 100gb max assuming you don't us data each month and build it to 100gb? But anymore than that, it doesn't rollover? But it's always 10gb hotspot each month no matter what right?

You ask a lot of questions!
11/9 as noted in the original post

30 days if you order a physical SIM; service for an eSIM starts immediately

Does not apply to this plan

Yes, all 10GB can be used as a hotspot.

If you use a referral when creating your account, you should be able to apply the $10 in Tello dollars to the third month. So you actually get three months of 10GB per month for $20 plus tax.

Can you renew early to get rollover data over the few months with this deal, or would an early renewal cancel the $10 pricing? Tia.

That is a good question, and I am not sure anyone has reported back about success. The terms say you lose the pricing if you change, cancel, or downgrade. I don't think an early renewal is any of those, but not sure how Tello sees it. Maybe the safest is to do it at the end of month two since at that point it won't matter if the promotional pricing is removed after the renewal. And you can apply Tello dollars when doing that manual renewal.

Used Tello for several years now without issue. On non-promotional plans, you can manually renew your plan early and rollover unused minutes and/or data. I pay $6 for the 2GB a month plan and have over 50GB of data available to me.

Not sure what strategy everyone uses but to me it seems like huge hassle to chase deals every few months with possibility of porting issues. Maybe I'm missing some secret strategy

just get a portnumber from portanumber[.]com and save yourself the hassle with Tello. That is what Ive done to get a free/cheap phone, and my main number is forever free.
