This Red Pocket eBay plan is mainly a low cost way to keep a line alive with unlimited talk and text plus 200MB of monthly data on the GSMA, AT&T network. The current offer is described as unlimited talk and text, with the old monthly allotments gone, and activation is said to work by buying on eBay and adding the code on Red Pocket's site. The 200MB is tiny and is not meant for real data use, while photo, video, and audio messages can use data unless sent over Wi Fi and RCS. Activation can be finicky, and auto renewal and website management have been described as annoying, so it fits best as a basic backup or number keeping plan.

How is that relevant to us?

On the other hand, the $30 is everyday price, on eBay, I've been getting this for years.

This ATT version was already unlimited the last time I got it in March. Also, I had to convert the line from GSMT, but online chat helped with it, they kinda handle it as a number transfer.

$30 is cheap for a year! Although does anyone know for certain if iMessage and RCS eats up the 200 MB of data or does it fall under free texts?

We used to do this for our kids TickTalk watch. It was great for that purpose. However, their website is fairly primitive and canceling auto renewal can be annoying, just as a warning.

This doesn't exist anymore, their lowest price is $15/month now for new customers and old ones could get $5/month for a little while until they force you to pay more.

This has been a trend with all the super cheap providers except for redpocket basically - they give some $1/month or "free" plan and then at some point make everyone upgrade to an expensive plan that isn't a good deal and hope that not everyone will cancel.

The eBay listing (after clicking the link in the original post) shows that it is GSMA (AT&T) only.

Id strongly suggest using a virtual credit card and cancelling after the plan starts. I have 4 phones on red pocket. They have tried to hit me with auto renewal despite not having auto renewal on. Id renew on from ebay a couple days before the plan was up and they would try and auto renew.

photo/video/audio type texts usually use data. however when connected to wifi, they won't.
