      According to the rules of the program, your account should have been terminated when you didn’t make a call for 30 days. You can confirm that it has been cancelled by speaking to your former service provider’s customer service team. If you have been cancelled, and if you are still eligible for the Lifeline free government cell phone program, you should be able to enroll with any company offering the service in your state. Here’s where you can find all those companies and their plans:

    I personally have found that myeasywireless.com in Oklahoma has been the easiest provider for the lifeline program. Just as the name says EASY WIRELESS! They are beginning to get the more updated phones now and unlimited talk and text for $4.95/month. They also have data plans available. BUT if this is supposed to be a LIFELINE program that the government generously provides to the unfortunate the phones and service plans should be more than sufficient as long as they are working properly and the service is provided as promised.

    I have used all my data already, do I have to wait till next month before I get anymore? Can I get unlimited data? If I get unlimited minutes, I can’t get text??? Why not? The sales guy explained absolutely nothing to me.

      Give the company a call or go to their website. First, to see if you qualify, you can CLICK HERE.

    I can’t make or receive any text messages. What do I need to do to change this? I can’t seem to get an answer.

    I’m fairly irritated. The store I enrolled at and bought my phone/plan from is understaffed/needs flow systems to handle the customers and an attitude adjustment.

    My phone has stopped using the network so that my weather app won’t load, etc. and I don’t get green for either bars, WiFi or network. I started trying to get this corrected 3 months ago. I’ve been back to the store too many times to admit to, and STILL without being able to stay long enough to have it seen to! Today, they are fortunate that I didn’t “sign in,” because if I had been there for another half hour, either of the times I was there, today, the fur might have flown. There were too many people waiting to imagine keeping my friend waiting.

    It’s wrong that trying to run in and pay my bill can take so long that I have to leave before seeing it done. Yes, I have resorted to paying online. Why should someone who just wants to pay have to wait for technical assistance savvy clerks?

    It’s wrong that I’m paying for and not able to use my data package. Being Disabled means I can’t drive and folks good enough to give me a ride shouldn’t have to make a day of my phone. I shouldn’t have to wait and wait in a lobby after being told to sign in, nothing else, and, it’s not ever my turn to ask how much longer I might have to wait.

    I’m really irritated. I’m almost ready to go through the mess to use another provider.

    The Assist Wireless store I’ve tried to use is at 1415 SW 59th St in OKC.

    Thank you,
    MK Hefner

        I believe that there needs to be some definite clarification that your website is more of a informational website providing the basics on the government lifeline program and it is NOT the customer service/support site for these individual cell phone providers. I just glimpsed through most all of the comments posted on here. Wow!

          You already paid for it? They are free (in most states) — what did you pay and to whom?
