Updated on 12/9/22
IMPORTANT NOTE: WE NO LONGER RECOMMEND ENROLLING FOR THE LIFELINE FREE GOVERNMENT CELL PHONE PROGRAM OR THE AFFORDABLE CONNECTIVITY (ACP) PROGRAM AT STREET EVENTS. THEY HAVE BEEN THE SCENES OF FAR TOO MUCH FRAUD AND ABUSE. SAVE YOURSELF A LOT OF POTENTIAL TROUBLE BY ENROLLING ONLINE OR BY PHONE.
Question of the day: Is there a website with all the dates and times of places where you can get a free government cell phone?
We have tens of thousands of readers here at FreeGovernmentCellPhones.net every day. And the question they’ve been asking most often recently can be summed up in this message from a reader named Crystal:
I’ve seen at different times tents set up at different locations where you can get an Obama phone right on the spot. Is there a website that will tell you the dates and places of where they will be set up for my area? I live in Phoenix, AZ.
The simple answer is no. We wanted to set up a FreeGovernmentCellPhones.net page to list the tent events held by the dozens of companies that compete in the Lifeline Assistance business. Unfortunately, that information is very hard to come by. And even if it was available, we would now be very hesitant to share it with our readers.
Why don’t all Lifeline Assistance companies offer this kind of information?
FreeGovernmentCellPhones.net is clearly the leading website dedicated to the Lifeline Assistance program. As we said earlier, we have tens of thousands of readers every single day of the year. And we simply don’t understand why ALL free government cell phone and ACP companies don’t make it this simple for their potential customers.
Well, that’s not strictly true. We do know the answer, but we just don’t like it.
We know that each Lifeline/ACP company handles its enrollment process in its own unique way. Some handle enrollment with their own employees (these are the only one’s we would trust). Others hire outside contracting companies that then hire their own full-time employees. And others damn near anyone who can walk, breathe, and hand you a pen and a form to fill out. But the biggest problem is all the complete scams being run by unscrupulous criminals who will do anything to make a quick buck and have absolutely no connection to any legitimate Lifeline or Affordable Connectivity Program service provider.
We know that all the major Lifeline Assistance companies read our site on a daily basis. We would still very much like to set up a Tent Event page that covers all the legitimate companies and their legitimate tent events. If only those companies made that information available.
C’mon, Lifeline companies. Post that information on your websites. Send us the info. Give our readers the kind of info that will make it easier for them to enroll and easier for you to enroll them. Let us publicize your legitimate events. Help us help you to sign up millions of financially-struggling Americans for Lifeline free government cell phones and ACP internet service.

Diana Tanner says
Why when I transfer my service to another provider where they are going to mail me the free phone after I’ve been approved and verified, why does it seem like they always pick out the crappiest phone they have? I’ve received phones that are not smart phones but are just like the ones that I first used to get when the Lifeline.program was just beginning. But everyone I see who signs up with the same company as me and got their phone from a tent stand has a recently released phone with a super big screen and lots of space for files and the Android operating system is the latest release. SafeLink has done this repeatedly.
Free Government Cell Phones says
All Lifeline companies are required to provide their customers with smart phones. If you get something less than that, you should file an official complaint.

Richard StJohm says
People like me who need the lifeline phone read this crap and just want to scream. I signed up online and what did i get? Totally ripped off. They shut off my service that I had already paid for. They never sent me a SIM card. But they sure billed the government for a service they are not providing. The term for this is fraud. In the meantime I am homeless with no means of communication so this company could get a 30 day fee from the government for a service they never provided. I will take a live version event over a bullshit promise of, “we’ll mail it to you.”

Free Government Cell Phones says
Sounds like you were ripped off, but did they take any money from you? We would recommend that you contact any Lifeline service provider’s customer service team to find out if you name shows up in the national Lifeline register. If not, you are free to re-enroll with a legitimate service provider. But do not enroll at a street event. Only enroll online or by phone.

Clair Johnson says
I am a street agent in Tucson, AZ and work for a legitimate partner of Assurance Wireless, Global US Marketing. The owners work hard to hold outreach agents accountable with surprise visits and undercover auditing. If fraud is suspected, you are terminated immediately. This company is the last surviving tent group in the area that I know of because their culture centers around integrity, work ethic, and positive motivation. The owners encourage us to post our locations on social media, and I do daily. My understanding is that this method for communicating tent locations is common. I understand that this site wants to protect its viewers from fraud, but the reality is many street tent agents are on the move from place to place searching for areas to give lots of phones. Reporting a location can create issues if that spot has no activity and the agent packs up and relocates. It hurts their credibility and wastes the customer’s time. The other side might say report the location and wait for customers. I’ve done this for 8 and 10 hours a day and given out 2 or 3 phones to those who qualified. If I hadn’t posted those locations on social media I’d have left early in the day when hours passed without a single inquiry. Understand this is a service we provide to a vulnerable population, and also how we make a living. Today I sat in my tent in triple degree heat for 10 hours and gave out 3 phones. The statistics may not be in my favor, but there are legitimate street tent agents working just as hard to be found as customers who are trying to find them. There is a population out there without stable living conditions and having a phone shipped in the mail is not possible so a street tent is their only option. Arguably there are more websites with inaccurate and misleading information. Should the same population you are discouraging to look for street tents then be discouraged from following your advice or believing the content on this site because many sites or blogs like this have an agenda driving misleading info? As with any exchange of personal information, customers should proceed with caution. All street agents should have credentials in the form of a badge that are uniquely identifying with agent specific letters or numbers. Customers should ask the name of the company the agent works for rather than assuming the agent works directly for the carrier. If something seems suspicious the customer should get in touch with the employing agency and verify the agent’s credentials. Rather than discouraging people from obtaining a phone from a street tent perhaps suggesting that they explore the agent’s employing company and legitimacy of their credientials could allow customers another safe option to persue their lifeline benefit as well as lifting this black mark of fraud placed on all outreach agents working from a street tent. Trust me the job is difficult enough without all the bad publicity. Additionally the formation of street tent agents is the result of a need out in the world for those without phones to easily call in an application, those with barriers to completing an online application, and those who have no way to receive the phone by mail. At least inform them that there can be a way to safely receive a phone at a street tent. Then you would truly be communicating accurate information. Also, anyone seeking a street tent should try a quick facebook search of free phones, lifeline, or obamaphone. They might find an agent like me trying to be found.
Free Government Cell Phones says
We don’t deny that there are legitimate street agents out there, Clair. You sound like a great one. But there is no way for customers to know the good from the bad. You want to sign them up the day they show up. The odds are against anyone going home, taking the time to determine who is good and who is bad and then coming back to find you to enroll. With that in mind, we choose to protect our readers by urging them not to take any chances. That being said, if you are as legitimate as you seem to be, we wish you the best of luck.
Mona says
I have applied for free phone service by contacting the service provider by phone, online AND by signing up at a street vendor/ kiosk location…
The BEST service and the easiest way to receive a free phone IMMEDIATELY has been by signing up for service at a street kiosk.
BY FAR ….
There is nothing that guarantees quality customer service and immediate customer satisfaction better than interacting with a vendor face to face.
That outsourced customer service crap is absolutely the least reliable with no recourse for deceptive and failure to follow through with services promised from some tech support employees in Bangladesh.
Furthermore, most “street vendors” work the same location day in and day M-F so they know they will be held accountable by unsatisfied customers.
Dissatisfied customers confronting them about bad phones or bad service will definitely destroy any chance of signing up new customers and those sellers do not profit if they do not satisfy every customer they manage to rustle up.
Free Government Cell Phones says
We won’t waste much time on this answer, Mona, because you obviously have some sort of relationship with the street vendor end of the free government cell phone business. If you are unaware of the vast number of fraudulent enrollments and vendors who are complete scam artists, you should educate yourself. Scroll down the comments here and it becomes obvious that many, many people have been scammed. You can reply to this and argue all you want, the facts are the facts. We’re trying to save our readers tons of heartache. You clearly have a different goal.
Suzanne (Manager) says
HI, Clair,
Our Office is looking for someone who can look professional when they are here. We have an office that is safe and private and we used to have phone reps that would come once a week for 4 hours a day (9am to 1pm, usually) and they would sometimes get 12-15 signups in a day. However, they started to get unreliable and then they decided to leave their respective companies. If you or any of your coworkers are interested in being in an office once a week (or twice a month, whatever works) and taking advantage of our advertising, as well as helping to advertise that location, together, we can get a lot of signups. You MUST be reliable and show up when you say you will. If you are interested, stop by (ADDRESS DELETED). We will definitely talk with you. Thank you.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Sorry, Suzanne, but we do not know who you are nor if you are legitimate, so we cannot allow you to recruit employees here.

Free Government Cell Phones says
Far too much fraud and abuse, Steve. We’ve had completely phony agents who didn’t represent Lifeline companies just gathering personal data to use or sell for identity fraud. We’ve had crooked agents for legitimate companies who enroll clearly ineligible people because they get paid per enrollee. We couldn’t begin to list all the problems that have popped up at these events.

Free Government Cell Phones says
Most Lifeline companies offer BYOP (Bring Your Own Phone) plans that allow you to substitute your own phone for the phones they usually give to customers. Check to see if your friend’s service provider has such a plan. Then he can go out and purchase a very inexpensive flip phone and use it. But MAKE SURE the phone he purchases is compatible with his service provider’s network BEFORE he purchases it.

Mona says
I just read your comment about street vendors enrolling ‘obviously ineligible’ people because they get “paid a fee for each enrollment”.
The ONLY way a vendor can successfully enroll anyone in a program is by successfully enrolling them in the program.
Ineligible applicants are denied service on the spot and are told to contact the company to clear up any issues affecting their eligibility. Any questionable eligibility issues result in an automatic denial of service and prevents phone activation. The vendor does not approve a customer for service and vendors are not able to activate phones fraudulently. The company approves applicants and the company activates the phones which are then released to the customers; fully operable and functioning properly. Vendors cannot decide who qualifies. ID and proof of eligibility are submitted. People don’t have to take the sellers word that the phone will work properly when and if it finally arrives. They don’t have to rely on customer service. They walk away satisfied.
Customer service Reps are not as motivated or obligated to successfully resolve technical or complicated problems.
No indifferent, sarcastic idiot to put you on hold for an hour only to’ get ‘disconnected’ if you aren’t easily acquiesced.
Free Government Cell Phones says
One part of your comment is true: “No indifferent, sarcastic idiot to put you on hold for an hour only to get ‘disconected’ if you aren’t easily acquiesced.” But you neglect to say that if you enroll with a street vendor there are “No dishonest scam artists to rip you off and get all your personal information.” Telling the honest street vendors from the dishonest is an impossible task and we would rather keep our readers safe from the potential (maybe even likely) problems caused by the dishonest ones.

Earma Jennings says

Free Government Cell Phones says
It’s almost impossible to find a service provider who still offers flip phones, Earma. One possibility for you would be to check out the various service providers’ BYOP (Bring Your Own Phone) plans, choose one of them, and then purchase your own inexpensive flip phone to use with that plan. But make sure the one you purchase is compatible with the company you enroll with.

Hi,
I recently lost my phone and I found it again and somebody had ran it over with their car I am looking to find out where I physically can find free government phones in Minneapolis Minnesota or the surrounding areas I did receive this phone from Brooklyn Center Minnesota at their government center but they said they’re no longer handing out free phones.
Thank you and have a great weekend.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Do you know who your service provider is/was? You need to get in touch with that company’s customer service team.
Tess says
Good morning,
I have tried calling all customer service for Access Wireless, I-Wireless several times and all I get automated machine. I have emailed several times and no response.
Do you have a event calendar on when they will be in the Minneapolis area handing out phones.
I’m very upset because I can only receive calls.
Thank you
Tess
Free Government Cell Phones says
You wouldn’t believe how many of our readers have complained about the same thing, Tess. It seems impossible to reach a live person at Access customer service.
One thing you might consider if you’ve had your free government cell phone for 60 days or longer — you can always switch to a new service provider that will actually make it possible to speak to a real person. Here are a couple articles that will tell you all you need to know. First, here’s how to switch providers:

I received my very first govt phone when this program was first introduced. Needless to say, it is like an antique. It doesn’t function properly anymore and I’m starting to have serious problems with it. I haven’t had any problems with the service itself, just the phone. Is there anyway I can get a newer model replacement phone?? Need it asap before it totally stops working all together. Thank you!!
Free Government Cell Phones says
You’ve been a customer for so long that your free government cell phone company may offer you a free replacement phone. If not, you have two choices. (1) Pay a small fee for a new phone. Or (2) Switch your service to a different free government cell phone company. That will make you a new customer and the new company will be required to offer you a new smartphone.

The only way for someone who is homeless to get a free government cell phone is to get residence in a homeless shelter. The Lifeline Assistance free government cell phone program makes exceptions and allows multiple residents of group homes (including homeless shelters) to receive phones.

Okay, I’ll wait MORON!
Free Government Cell Phones says
We don’t feel any need to respond to ignorant, insulting people, but we’ll make an exception in this case. This program has been overwhelmed by fraud. A great percentage of that fraud originates with those street vendors. We didn’t say every street vendor participates in fraud, but many of them do. That fraud has been documented by government investigations, undercover television investigations and newspaper reporters. We would rather protect our readers than expose them to potential fraud because it’s impossible to tell the honest ones from the dishonest ones.

Free Government Cell Phones says
Sorry, Rose, but we’ll give you the same answer we’ve given a thousand times below. Don’t go anywhere to pick up a phone. The street tents and booths have been the scene of too many cases of fraud and abuse. Instead you should apply by phone or online from the comfort of your home.
Michelle Lanier says
Where are they located in riverside 92606
Free Government Cell Phones says
Ahhh, lovely Riverside, California, where this moderator grew up smelling orange blossoms every spring and smudge pots every winter. But enough nostalgia. In answer to your question, Michelle, we strongly urge you to enroll by phone or online rather than at a street tent. Much less likelihood of fraud and abuse that way.
Missy says
My government phone has a problem with the charger port it does not work where can I get a new one in eureka California.
Free Government Cell Phones says
We urge you not to deal with the street tents and booths, Missy. There have been too many cases of fraud and abuse. Instead we recommend that you take care of your problem by contacting your service provider’s customer service or tech support team by phone or online. Much safer that way.
Glenda says
Lost a safelink phone. Their published policy clearly states the customer can receive one replacement phone for free. Called 15 days ago, and was assured a new phone was on the way. Called today after the phone has not been received, to be told that phone is not eligible for a replacement. Spent almost 3 hours on the phone trying to resolve this. Customer service keeps trying to tell me there is no one in charge of the call center to explain why they are not following their own policy. I’ve never been so frustrated.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Bad story, Glenda. Please keep us posted on your progress (or lack of). Our readers would be very interested.
Shirley Walker says
Every free phone company has told me my address is not valid. I live in the county, my address is valid, Have. Lived here for 4 years. Welfare and social security have this address, they Don’t have any problems. My address is **** *****, Lubbock, TX, 79403
Free Government Cell Phones says
Contact customer service again and ask to speak to a customer service supervisor. Perhaps that person can help you sort out the problem.
Allison Roberts says

what do i do if i lost my phone and dont remember what free cell phone company i got it through
Free Government Cell Phones says
Your only real option is to go to our “States” listings and click on your state.
https://www.freegovernmentcellphones.net/states
All you can do is start at the top of the list of companies and call each of the companies doing business in your state until you find the one that provided your phone. They’ll know based on things like your number, your name, your address, etc.
It may be time consuming to call them all, but maybe you’ll get lucky and find it with calls to the first couple companies listed. Good luck.
Janice says
Just call lifeline in your state and give them your cell number and they can tell you which company your with.

Free Government Cell Phones says

Pam says

“We” are not going to be anywhere near Norwood, Ohio, Pam, because we are not a free government cell phone company. We’re an independent website.
Xadrien says
When and where are your next events for gov. phones going to be posted in Huntington WV at Zip(25705)
Free Government Cell Phones says
“We” don’t have events for free government cell phones, Xadrien, because we’re not a service provider. We’re an independent website. But we recommend that you enroll online or by phone to avoid the potential of fraud and abuse at the street events that our readers tell us about. You can find a complete list of service providers in your state (and their contact info) at this link:

I had an American Assistance phone that got stolen last summer & have since been trying to get a new phone I know they come to Springfield, IL but I need to know when they’ll be @ Family Dollar on Cook, or across the street from Family Dollar on 5th & South Grand or @ Hometown Pantry on 2nd & South Grand giving away phones.
Free Government Cell Phones says
We don’t have a clue when or where they’ll be anywhere, Tracey. They don’t share that info with us. But a larger issue is that we are strongly against enrolling at street tents and booths. Just too many cases of fraud and abuse of the system. You’re much better off enrolling by phone or online.
Terry says

The program is called LifeLine phones for getting work, call family, & 911. It was started in rthe age of land line phones by Pres. Rinald Reagan. Stop calling them Obama phones & giving that %#*<"#(! Obama credit for something he DID NOT do!
Free Government Cell Phones says
We can’t figure out if Daniel is pro-Obama or anti-Obama. But it sounds like he approves of the free government cell phone program.

In direct answer to your question, we always recommend enrolling online or by phone instead of at a street tent or booth. There have been too many cases of fraud and abuse originating at the street tents, so do yourself a favor and take our advice: enroll by phone or online.

shalico willis johnston says
My question is i have a client who received a government phone, within 4 days of getting phone she broke it by accident and now has no idea even which company the phone came off of, or which customer service # to call and get a new phone.
Free Government Cell Phones says
If her phone worked, she could simply call 6-1-1 and her service provider would answer the call. Since it doesn’t work, the only thing she can do is go to our list of service providers in her state, start at the top of the list and call each service provider until she finds the one that has her account. Here’s where she can find that list:

Russell lee Rodriguez says
Yes my name is Russell lee rodriguez and I am writing this on the behalf of one of your applicants who keeps herrassing me but I told her I don’t qualify because I’m only 18, and i have not established credit. she keeps calling me trying to get me to meet her up I’ve told her several times that being that I am only 18 and I don’t have credit I can’t do it even so she keeps herrassing me over and over and over again her number is 480 453 **** again 480 453 ****. she is an applicant of Phoenix area on the eastern metropolis part of the valley
Free Government Cell Phones says
The good news, Russell, is that you qualify if you are 18. The other good news is that no credit check is required.
The bad news is that you should be very wary of a rep who stalks you like that when it’s so easy to enroll by phone or online. The other bad news is that “we” do not have agents because we’re not a Lifeline free government cell phone company. We’re an independent website.
You can find a complete list of Lifeline companies in Arizona at the following link. Check them all out and enroll with the one that offers a plan that seems best for your needs.

Jennifer says
I think they don’t post that info because they don’t reliably know. From what I understand it is up to the individual working the location to set their hours; they just have a minimum requirement each day, or week. Most people needing the phones say they can be found on the sidewalk outside of any GR (Welfare) office.
Free Government Cell Phones says
You’re close to the right answer, Jennifer. Most of the free government cell phone companies hire sub-contracting companies who hire the street agents. As you can see in many of the answers below, we think it’s much safer to enroll online or by phone.
