  1. Carol N. Weiss says

    I wish this offer had been available when I purchased my first cell phone in December 2017.
    I was a real novice and didn’t know about “exiting out” and used too much data. I would have been much more aggressive if I had some “free time” to learn.

  2. Cheryl Hess says

    We have had Consumer Cellular for several months now. We are very pleased with the clarity we have received on the service. We just recently purchased new phones, and my husband can hear much better on his new phone. I have been talking to my parents for six months about switching over from their current carrier, but they were under contract. On Valentine’s Day, they switched to Consumer Cellular, both received new phones, and though my mom is 85 and dad is almost 90, they are hearing great with their new phones. They are also very pleased with the price of their new service. Their old service was almost $100/month for them. Consumer Cellular is much more reasonable. Thank you Consumer Cellular for giving us a better alternative with No Contract!

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thank you so much for sharing your parents’ story, Cheryl! We’re so glad that our service will provide them with the value they need. We appreciate you posting, and we hope you have a lovely day!

  3. Terry says

    My husband and I are very happy we found Consumer Cellular. We went from $50/line everything unlimited to $45 for 2 lines only limit is data (1 gig) which is ok with us. I learned how to limit Data use by sharing with my teenage grandson, needless to say I NEVER had data to use. Lol
    **What happens if we go over the 1 gig?
    **Can someone help us configure my husband’s phone to use less data?
    I have an iPhone 5C and have set it up to limit data use, I’d like to do the same for hubby’s phone.

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Welcome to Consumer Cellular, Terry! We are so glad to have you and your husband as customers. I’m happy to answer your questions! First, if you find yourselves using more than 1 GB of data, our Automatic Upgrade feature will move you to the 3GB plan so that you won’t be subject to any overage fees. Then you can change it back to 1GB for the next billing cycle. We can also assist your husband with his phone, and show him some simple ways to use less data. Just give us a call at 888-345-5509, and we will be ready to help! Thank you for taking the time to post, and we look forward to speaking with you soon!

    We are not familiar with the new terminology. Does the word ‘Data’ mean ability to access the internet?

    Hi, about how much is it for taxes and fees every month for 2 lines unlimited talk and text and 3 GB a month.

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

You can learn more about our SIM card option with our video here. You can order a SIM card on our website, over the phone at 888-345-5509, or you can find them at your local Target store.

  15. Robbert says

    I can’t believe what a rip off this company turned out to be. I purchase a Consumer Cellular all in one SIM card for 10.99 + tax on February 20, 2018. I was told I could keep my old number. When I tried to activate my phone I would get a message on the top left of my phone saying Emergency call… Which means the chip is there I just don’t have any service. It is now February 24, 2018, and I still remain without service.

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      We appreciate you taking the time to post, Robbert. I was able to take a look at your account, and I’m happy to see that we were able to activate your SIM card and that it is working properly. If we can assist you with anything else, please don’t hesitate to call us at 888-345-5509. Thank you for posting, and we hope you have a wonderful day!

  16. Fran Kelsey says

    Can I stay with Verizon ?

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thanks for posting, Fran. This offer is only available to new customers who make the switch to Consumer Cellular, or existing customers who add a new line of service.

  17. Debra says

    We are looking at switching to Consumer Cellular as soon as our current plan is up. We have a Verizon wireless base for our home phone now. Would we have to buy the wireless device from you or could we continue to use ours with your plan?

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thank you for asking, Debra! If your home base uses a SIM card, you could try it with our service to see if it would work. Unfortunately, we aren’t able to guarantee that a device purchased elsewhere will work with our service. Our Wireless Home Phone Base would provide you with a similar experience, and it’s available for an affordable price. You can learn more about it here. Our account advisors are happy to answer any other questions you may have about our devices or our service at 888-345-5509. We appreciate you posting, and we hope to see you as a customer soon!

  18. Allen Christo says

    I noticed your plans do not include Unlimited Data Rates. Why?

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thanks for asking, Allen! We find that our customers find value in our flexible plans, which allow them only pay for the amount of data they really need. Since you can change your plan at any time up until the last date of your billing cycle, you can actually save money if you used less data than you expected. We’re happy to talk with you more about our plans at 888-345-5509 at your convenience. We appreciate you taking the time to reach out to us, and we hope you have a great day!

    How do I add AARP discount to my existing account?

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

Thanks for posting, and we hope you have a lovely day!

  20. Ralph J. Phillips says

    While most comments seem OK, my present experience has been exasperating. I received my new iPhone SE at 6 this evening. I know most new phones need charging before further development so I tried calling to ask how to charge this new phone as it is totally unfamiliar to me due to always previously having an ANDROID. ‘Hold’ time was announced as “30 minutes”. 55 minutes later, I gave up. I tried again 2 hours later with the same results. So much for “great service”! If you’re expanding, you sure need more help !!

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thank you for your patience, Ralph, and we apologize for the wait you experienced. I was able to take a look at your account, and I see that a few of our account advisors have been able to answer some of your questions over the past few days as you’re getting to know your new iPhone. If we can be of any further assistance at this time, please don’t hesitate to call. We appreciate your feedback, and we hope you have a wonderful day!

  21. Charles Howell says

    How can I POSSIBLY remove an alert — “Package Shipped” from my Account Overview page on the Consumer Cellullar website? The package, a phone, arrived more than a week ago and has been activated and the number entered on my Account Overview page. I cannot delete it.

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thank you for reaching out to us, Charles. Please try logging out of My Account, then logging back in. If the alert still appears, please give us a call at 888-345-5509 and we’ll be happy to troubleshoot further. We appreciate you posting, and we hope you have a great day!

  25. Eric says

    Bought Doro 7050 with tmobile sim. Ported my number from Verizon. Only took 10 minutes despite the fact Verizon said 10 hours to release the number. Everyone can now hear me clearly as I can them. I have Full bars most times and even known “dead zones” most other people with any other provider doesn’t get service I get at least 25% signal and voice clarity is still perfect. The 4g lte with VoLTE makes even weak signals get full clarity. Phone is basic which is exactly what I wanted. But has all the essentials. Calendar calc alarm talk text and supports all the 4g bands so this phone will be supported for a long time. And about 7 dollars cheaper than Verizon for same plan. Customer service is EXCELLENT and they actually KNOW their phones and how to solve issues. Fully U.S. based support. Could not be happier!!

    I love consumer cellular it has great service it never looses service when I’m out in public and I love how it gives me a few extra days when I can’t pay my bill on time.
