We read Element Mobile’s website to find out more about the company and we have to admit that this sounds like the kind of company we’d like to do business with:
“Element Mobile is not only a wireless carrier based in Central Wisconsin; it is the wireless carrier of Central Wisconsin. Element Mobile reflects what Central Wisconsin is, hardworking, down-to-earth, genuine, fun loving, and no-nonsense. It’s because we live and play here too. From Wisconsin Rapids, to Steven’s Point or Waupaca, Element Mobile knows and shares your stomping grounds.”
Wow. Sign us up and let the fun begin.
But the main thing you need to know is the amount of the discount offered by Element. In other words, how much can you save on your bill? According to Element, “You will save up to $9.25 and qualified residents of Tribal Lands can save as much as $25.00 per month.”
However the company does note that “These benefits apply to your monthly access charge. All Lifeline customers are responsible for the payment of all applicable taxes, surcharges and fees.” So make sure you ask about those taxes, surcharges and fees just so you’ll be a well-informed consumer and will know precisely how much you’ll be paying every month.
