Aleshia Thomas says
My phone has not worked for months ,I have been sick that’s why I have not been able to call,so can someone please send me a number to call to get a replacement phone. Thx
Free Government Cell Phones says
Just look at the bottom of the article on this page, Aleshia. You’ll find contact for YourTel. However, it’s probably important for you to know that YourTel has merged with TerraCom, so you might need to call TerraCom. You can find it’s contact info here:
https://www.freegovernmentcellphones.net/free-cell-phone-providers
Something else to keep in mind is that your account would have been automatically cancelled if you have not used your phone for 60 days. If that’s the case, TerraCom’s records may show that you’ve been cancelled. In that case, you can re-apply with any of the Lifeline Assistance companies in your state. Here’s where you can find a full list of them:

Markeith says
Can yall send me new phone
Free Government Cell Phones says
You left your comment on the wrong page, Markeith, because YourTel no longer exists. It has merged with Terracom. But even Terracom will not send you a free phone based on leaving a comment on this page. You need to go through the application and approval process. Here’s Terracom’s page:
https://www.freegovernmentcellphones.net/free-cell-phone-providers/terracom-wireless
But does Terracom offer the best plan in your state? Maybe not. You owe it to yourself to check out all the plans available to make sure you get the best one. Here’s where you can find all the Lifeline Assistance free government cell phone companies in your state:

Deborah K. Butler says
Dear Yourtel Wireless, Lifeline Provider,
On your statements of what you provide, for the Lifeline free cell phone government program, states that you serve six states, but you have nine listings. There are really only eight states because the state of Washington appears twice on the list.
When I see very noticeable inaccuracies within a ad / document, that could have been corrected easily, by simply proofreading, I don’t consider that persons or companies ability to provide any better quality service for me. So, I don’t consider their services or business. Just wanted to bring this to your attention.
Sincerely,
Deborah K. Butler
(360)747-****
Free Government Cell Phones says
Keeping up with all the changes with all the companies is more than a full-time job, Deborah. Thanks for catching that proofreading error.

Then click on your state and you’ll find a comprehensive list of free government cell phone service providers in your area. Click through them all to find the company and plan that’s best for you. It’s that easy.
Margaret E Walter says
I would like to know if it is true that the government is trying to stop the free phones in December or not.
Free Government Cell Phones says
No truth whatsoever to that rumor. Of course, there are always some members of Congress who oppose the program, but Lifeline Assistance is far too popular with too many voters to ever be killed.

KC says
the service sucks the unlimited talk text and wireless is a lie and you constantly have to call in to get minutes if you quote run out of your unlimited which they don’t mean understand with unlimited means plan and then you have to go through the hill and then they don’t answer your phone so unlimited why are your tail Wireless is a joke and sucks sometimes it would be easier to go without a phone but in emergency cases it is okay I accept I guess so other than that it being a free service other than it being a free service to the government it sucks and they can track your phone intervene in anything you do and hack your website and change everything so I don’t trust them!!!!!
