The FP Messaging/phone app has also turned into a tricky popup nest. It keeps launching these popups asking people to upgrade to paid services. Of course the accept button is what's highlighted. I...

Their free plan turned into a penny plan? Of course not, that's what you hope. It's now $5 to start if you do not want those trials added on for you. Yes, the SIM is still sold at 1c, just you need...

Hey, as I said I hope FP is alive and kicking a year from now. It's probably one of the reasons, if not the reason, Sprint offered the 1 year free plan to compete with FP and perhaps put it out of...

that is not the only cost of the Sprint "free" plan.
1. you have to switch from an existing plan somewhere else. That costs something to have.
2. you have to buy a sim card, which costs $13....

The only cost for the Sprint free plan is the monthly taxes which are about $3-$4 per month or so, and the Sim card that you can get for around $3.00 or free.
BUT, you get WAY... WAY... WAY... MORE...

Exactly. The penny charge is a penny charge, it's a penny. My problem is how they are presenting the penny charge. Their explanation of why there is a penny charge doesn't square with the reality of...

getting the "free" Sprint plan costs way more than a penny now and then. And all of your ranting about Freedompop's "free" plan not being free applies in spades to Sprint's "free" plan.

You're right: The free plan is the best value out there! BUT it is the Sprint 1 year FREE Plan offered now for a few months, NOT the FP $0.01 + $5.00 plan that FP pretends it to be free but it is...

One of my 5 Global SIMs went 'inactive'. Support has been unable to assist so far. The SIM is working on the network, but no data can be transmitted or received. Support is pushing the LTE SIMs and...

As has been repeatedly pointed out. There is no need to charge anything to verify a credit card. Many companies do it charging $0. Other companies do it using an authorization and then letting it...

A valid credit card must be assigned to a FreedomPop account at all times even on the free plan in order to avoid any disruption to the service. The $.01 is to verify if the credit card currently...

If that was the case, why are we being charged a penny even though we already have a credit at FP? Also, as we've pointed out, there is no need to charge anything to verify a CC. Why the penny?

Thank you very much for the feedback! The goal of the $.01 charge is to ensure that there is no disruption with your service of any kind. The free plan is the best value out there!

Exactly. They could do an authorization but not post the charge. They don't. There's a reason they are pushing through the penny charges. I wonder what that might be. :nono2:

There is no need to charge a penny to verify that. Other companies do it by putting through a $0 "charge" to verify the card.
Let's just call it what it is. The "free" plan is now a penny plan.
