DOESNT WORK! I'm a grad student with low income ($15k/yr) they approved me then told me buy a $25 family mobile at mobile then port my number to get the discount so end up with $35/mo unlimited talk/text/web Sound to good to be true? I want to potentially port my parents out from Walmart Family Mobile, a Tracfone Verizon company, moving them over to US Mobile. They have been with Walmart for at least 10 years. They have pixel 3As phones. They were BYOPs. 1. I know I likely need a transfer PIN. Do I get that by calling in. I'm trying to put together a detailed comparison of all Prepaid and Discounted Plans from major carriers and MVNOs. My focus is on unlimited plans, but I. I need a TMO prepaid phone. I like the Galaxy Grand Prime but its $149 TMO branded. My Walmart has their Family Mobile Grand Prime for $99. Can I just buy that one and put in my TMO Sim? If so, its a $50 savings for the same phone. Anyone know for sure. If that won't work I like the ZMax 2.

I did alittle research and most people are saying the best phone you can use on there is the LG Rumor Touch?? Is this true? No smart phones. basically whatever you can use on PayLo will work I believe?? Any other decent phones or better then the Rumor Touch? Thanks :clapping: My question is - how do I know this is true? Why would they be selling this exact phone at the local store if online they are saying it won't work in this area? This makes no sense to me. Does anyone have any idea how this is happening? I really want to get this phone for my daughter, but obviously not if it won't work for her! Family Mobile is billed after the fact (postpaid). You will receive your first bill approximately two to three weeks after activating service. 3 months of free data. After that you can switch to the new $30.00 and keep enjoying data.
