MaRvIn October 7, 2014 Share MaRvIn Member October 7, 2014 Basically not free for people that want to use their phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preacher October 7, 2014 Author Share Preacher Member October 7, 2014 free is free even if it's less than you want, plus it's best program is $20 cheaper than I've seen anywhere else. Now if the service sucks I'll be sad but I just bought the phone and will see what it can do while I keep my old phone/plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaRvIn October 7, 2014 Share MaRvIn Member October 7, 2014 The service is the magical thing. Best of luck to you and I await to hear to your feedback on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairweather October 7, 2014 Share Fairweather Member October 7, 2014 I've never even seen a phone plan for 20$, let alone unlimited everything Basically not free for people that want to use their phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaRvIn October 7, 2014 Share MaRvIn Member October 7, 2014 I have looked up the addresses to most of my family member's houses as well as my work address and none of them have coverage under their network. Seems really odd. But maybe it only accounts for 4G speeds and not anything lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stutters October 8, 2014 Share stutters GC Alumni October 8, 2014 I've spent the past 20 minutes trying to figure out their model. The only thing I see is "converting voice to data," but that doesn't explain how they can subsidize free plans. No mention (or even accusations) of data mining, either. Year old, but the most insightful I could find: http://thenextweb.com/mobile/2013/10/01/freedompop-is-hitting-us-carriers-where-it-hurts-with-its-new-free-mobile-phone-service/ Might consider getting one of these for my mom. She never, ever uses a cell phone, but I'd love her to have one in case of emergency. Looking forward to your review, Preacher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protomanx13 October 8, 2014 Share Protomanx13 Member October 8, 2014 (edited) Sounds like a sweet deal, but quality has to be mediocre. For years, I want to switch to a different carrier, but outside of Verizon, people get call drop when indoor or service is terrible when travelling.

ZeroDamage October 10, 2014 Share ZeroDamage Member October 10, 2014 I think they ride on the Sprint network. And let's be honest, outside of some of the major cities, Sprint is garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preacher October 23, 2014 Author Share Preacher Member October 23, 2014 Dude that place still hasn't sent it yet. ugh. Ordered on the 6th for crying out loud. More research seems that it's not actually cell usage, it's VOIP over the 4g/3g sprint network using their Ap. I guess it's basically like skyping. I'll still give it a try but I have my doubts it'll be high quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake October 23, 2014 Share Snowflake Member October 23, 2014 I get consistent 4g in my neck of the woods with my sprint but from comments above and others I think I'm just lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
