I was a long time T Mobile customer. 95% of my use is in urban areas or on wifi so the Tmobile network, which Ultramobile resells, works fine for me. I sometimes tether my laptop to my phone. (I prefer the reliability and speed of wired connections where reasonable.) Ultramobile gets the job done just as well. I do not need my hand held; I can read a manual and change settings on my phone myself so for me this is great.
I have used ultramobile since 2012, they offered an excellent service; I have never had coverage problems at all along east coast from Maine down to Florida. I really recommend their service.
I am using ultra mobile from last 3 years, been to many places in the US and never had a problem. Sometimes network coverage is less on the highways and happens where the population is very low. I use $19 and $29 plans intermittently based on my usage. I do make international calls daily and never faced any issue. With the data part, yes you will get some issues but its very rare in my case. I am not much dependent on data so don't know about higher data plan problems. But my $29 plan gives me 4GB which works quite fast. Connectivity is great and the price is lower than other good carriers.
Terrific value! Finally, no nonsense data plan with simple billing. I'm done with the big providers. Don't get pulled in by "free phone" deals....buy here and save thousands! Highly recommend.
I have had ultramobile before and went back to them after i had a $230 tmobile bill. The service is great and offers the same roaming package as tmobile with a cheaper rate and better cell phone plan. I was able to port my own number. I love ultramobile and i am here to stay.
Important Notice for California Prepaid Consumers:
On November 15, 2018, the Prepaid MTS Surcharge Collection Act [official site], originally enacted in January 2016, was declared unenforceable by the United States District Court, as it conflicts with federal law.
During the period between 1/1/2016 and 12/31/2018, prepaid wireless sellers were required by California law to collect certain taxes, fees, and mandatory surcharges from prepaid consumers at the time of purchase. These taxes, fees, and surcharges, were combined under a single Prepaid MTS Surcharge. Consumers in certain cities within the state were also charged a Utility User Tax or a Local 911 Charge as part of the Local Prepaid MTS Collection Act.
Effective January 1, 2019, sellers are no longer required to collect the statewide Prepaid MTS Surcharge on the sale of prepaid wireless service. However, any charges related to the Local Prepaid MTS Collection Act are still in effect (click here for rates).
The above changes only impact purchases made at indirect retail locations. When purchased directly from ultramobile.com, certain statewide taxes, fees and mandatory surcharges will still be collected, but the amounts will no longer be combined into a single charge (please refer to itemized list below).
For more information on the changes related to the Prepaid MTS Surcharge, please contact customer care at 1.888.777.0446.

It is common in the wireless industry for subscribers to pay taxes, fees and surcharges in addition to their monthly service costs, with customers of the “Big Four” mobile operators sometimes paying more than 25% on top of their monthly plans. The majority of those extra costs are remitted to government agencies to pay for taxes relating to the provision of telecom services and the cost of mandated programs like Universal Service Fund programs.
For all Ultra Mobile Service plans except the Ultra Flex plans, the Regulatory Recovery Fee is calculated as a flat per transaction fee of $0.50 for service charges of $10.00 or less, and $1.00 for service charges of $10.01 or more. For Ultra Flex plans, the Regulatory Recovery Fee is calculated as a flat fee of (i) $1.00 per line credit per month, (ii) $0.50 on Ultra Flex add-ons (e.g., additional data, call anywhere credit or roaming credit) of $10.00 or less, and (iii) $1.00 on Ultra Flex add-ons of $10.01 or more; provided, however, that no additional Regulatory Recovery Fee beyond the $1.00 per line credit per month will be charged for Ultra Flex add-ons when purchased with one or more line credits.
Domestic long distance calling is included in all Ultra Mobile plans.
Dial 011 + country code + phone number (or ‘+’ + country code + phone number) to call internationally everywhere outside the North American Numbering Plan (NANP).
If you are calling countries within the NANP (Canada, US Territories, and most of the Caribbean), just dial the 10-digit international number as you would for a regular domestic phone call starting with a ‘1.’
No access numbers or calling cards needed here – Ultra Mobile allows for International Direct Dialing!
For destinations that use 10-digit dialing (numbers on the North American Numbering Plan), enter the 10-digit phone number of the message recipient as you would when sending a domestic text. For destinations not using 10-digit dialing (the rest of the world outside North America), include 011 or a “+” symbol, the country code, and the phone number of the recipient.
