Yogi Berra, perhaps the most famous Missourian of them all, once said, “It ain’t over ‘til the fat lady sings.” If you’re in need of a cell phone and just can’t afford one, don’t give up because it ain’t over ‘til you get in touch with a Lifeline supplier.
The Show Me State has a highly diversified economy, but with an unemployment rate of nearly 9.0% there are lots of people who can’t afford the cell phones that most people consider necessities. People who need jobs but have no way of contacting potential employers and no way for those same employers to call them. People whose health issues require them to stay in touch with their doctors. People who need to say in touch with their children. And people who just need a phone for unexpected emergencies that pop up in everyone’s lives.
Luckily, Missouri as a bevy of Lifeline and Affordable Connectivity Program service providers. Any of them can supply you with a free cell phone from the government.
They can each give you a free smartphone, free unlimited talk and text, and free internet. Check out each of them to find the plan that’s right for you.

How to qualify for an ACP free government phone and unlimited service in Missouri
It’s even easier to qualify for ACP service than it is to qualify for Lifeline service. The USAC website spells it all out:
Consumers qualify for the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) through participation in Lifeline or a Lifeline-qualifying program, having an income at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, through participation in ACP-qualifying programs, such as the free and reduced-price school lunch or breakfast program (including the Community Eligibility Provision), WIC, through award of a federal Pell Grant, or through participation in a participating service provider’s existing low-income program.
Low income residents of Missouri are in for a real treat. Free smartphones, free unlimited talk, free unlimited text, and now free unlimited internet (if you choose the right plan). Enroll just as soon as you can, Show Me Staters, because the benefits are out there waiting to be had.

That’s a question we’ve never been asked before, Steve, and we have no idea what the answer is.
Sheena Brockman says

Good luck on that one, Sheena.

We do not condone breaking the law.
Mallory says
Hi, I am in the process of helping an unhoused person receive a cell phone in Kansas City MO. He doesn’t get benefits to qualify he has W2 from working, so he qualifies under that condition problem is he doesn’t have an address to link the lifeline service with, almost a year out of the penitentiary this young person is falling through the cracks.
Please if you have any ideas or know where he can go and receive the Lifeline benefits, please share.
Free Government Cell Phones says
This has always been one of the biggest flaws in the Lifeline program. That is, it’s not possible for people without permanent addresses to qualify for service. Unless he can get permanent residence in a homeless shelter or halfway house, he cannot legally qualify.
That being said, we have no doubt that our readers will leave comments suggesting less-than-legal ways for him to enroll. We just can’t endorse any of those methods.
Bet of luck to you and the person you’re helping.
Juanita Stout says
They might but in my experience they really don’t do anything but talk circles and make you want to throw you’re phone.
Cathy McCoy says
How can I find out who owns a phone number if I’m being harassed by someone?
Free Government Cell Phones says
We don’t have a clue, Cathy. That’s way out of our area of expertise. Try Google.
Henry says
Try whitepages.com and enter the phone number to see what comes up for it. Note that phone number spoofing is possible, so the true identity of the caller may be harder to find.
Mallory says
From my experience of same problem.
I paid for a background service that truly didn’t work.
Before wasting your money on one of those.
Google the number, I actually got the general location of the phone number, from that it was just a little investigating and whammy.
Jeremy Lee Stafford says
is there anywhere to get a free phone and plan for free in kcmo? i want to visit an actual location instead of doing online order

how much does this cost the state of Missouri?
Free Government Cell Phones says
Have you noticed the name of our website, Charles? FreeGovernmentCellPhones.net.
James Boyle says
His question was about how much money the state pays for citizens to have this service — not how much he has to pay for the service. Like any government benefit, there is a cost that is paid by all of us who pay taxes. How much does this one cost?
Free Government Cell Phones says
A few cents are tacked on to each phone bill each month. You can find out what it costs you by looking at your phone bill and looking for a line item that says “Universal Service fee” or something similar.
Sandra says
I can’t find a provider for my 63957 area .. I know that other people in my area have them but I don’t know where to go to get one where to sign up

Will B. says
I used to have Safelink but customer services were horrible and the most frustrating part was the online recertification. I did the recertification online but I kept getting notification emails that I needed to do recertification again and again. Finally, I switched to Qlink two years ago. I am very happy with Qlink. I am getting 3GB data + 1000 talk mins + unlimited text per month. Highly recommend Qlink.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Good to hear that you took the right course of action.
Lateaca Jefferis says
Since May 2017, I been trying to get a replacement phone from QLink wireless. March of 2019 I qualified for disability and finances are very limited. So I tried working with QLink again, they requested info., I sent info. asked for and they will not work with me at all….wont erase me from there records which is keeping me from getting help. I live alone in the country and I need a phone for emergency reasons!
i have filled out application for another lifeline and 3 weeks ago
Lateaca Jefferis
(Address deleted)
I am the Library today…NOW…please help.
Free Government Cell Phones says
If you are having this much trouble dealing with one company, we’d suggest switching to a different Lifeline company. There’s more than one way to get a free government cell phone, Lateaca.
Kim keith says
I had terracom. In the morning after 2 years I tried to make a call and someone change my carrier without permission or me. No one will help. I am disabled and elderly
Free Government Cell Phones says
Have you called 6-1-1 on your free government cell phone. That will automatically connect you to your service provider’s customer service team. They should be able to help clear things up.
Latrisha Blakey says
I am in MO and have really good service with QlinkWireless. You only get 1000 Talk minutes and 1 GB of data, but when you use Wi-Fi it saves that data, unlimited text. Also you get bonuses and perks for Referrals etc.
Also Safelink, is a better one.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Always nice to hear from someone who is happy with their Lifeline service.
MICHAEL VON RUECKER says
I make to much money to get a free phone, and I am not on Medicaid … I need to apply and be denied to get help elsewhere. How, where can I apply to get a denial letter?

wow….i checked out safelink, q link, tru connect, & tag mobile w/ the bbb & EVERY single one of them had terrible reviews w/ their customers!!! how do we pick a good co.?
Free Government Cell Phones says
Unfortunately, that’s impossible to answer, Kevin, because service varies so much by so many different factors. What’s great for the guy across the street might not be so great for you.
kevin says
so there is no way of telling who is best or has the best customer record in the 63668 area?

kevin says
i thought i qualified for a lifeline plan do to the poverty guidelines until i contacted safelink & they told me to contact the lifeline national verifier. since i do not qualify for a government program do to owning a paid for house they told me to prove my income. i have been unemployed for some time now and have been living off a meager savings account. my previous few years of income has been zero and do not have to file income taxes. they said they could not except a letter of non filing from the i.r.s. and i probably will not qualify because of no tax return, unemployment, etc. are there any other ways of proving i fall below the poverty guidelines? i asked them if i could send copies of my bank account balance & they said that was unacceptable. please give me some advice.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Unfortunately, Kevin, you fall into one big, crazy gap in the Lifeline free government cell phone program. That is, there’s no way to prove your income if you have no income. The USAC says it’s aware of this problem and is working to solve it, but so far there’s nothing to report. Sorry.
Do you participate in any of the government aid programs that would make you automatically eligible? Here’s where you can find them all:

Tony Gardner says
I understand there are booths set up at certain spots around KCMO where I can get a phone the same day, with proper documentation.
Can you tell me where these are locarted, especially in the Midtown area?
Thank you,
Tony Gardner
Free Government Cell Phones says
We can’t, Tony. But even if we could, we wouldn’t. There have just been far too many cases of fraud and abuse at these street events and we strongly urge you to enroll online or by phone to protect yourself.
Fred Moret says
Is there actually a lifeline company that furnishes you with a free phone or is it just the service? I was approved by one company who said I qualified for for free service but in essence I would have to purchase a phone from them I couldn’t go get a cell phone from elsewhere. This doesn’t seem right to me
Free Government Cell Phones says
Any company that gave you that information is violating the primary rule of the Lifeline free government cell phone program. ALL new customers are supposed to receive free smartphones AND service, Fred.
David says
1. Is everything here still valid as of July 1, 2018?
2. Do you have a Fact sheet on this?
Free Government Cell Phones says
Things change on a daily basis, David. We’re constantly scurrying to update info.
dawn says
What documentation is needed to disconnect service after death?
Free Government Cell Phones says
Congratulations, Dawn. We often get the same questions asked thousands of times here on FreeGovernmentCellPhones.net, but this is the first time we’ve ever been asked this question. To tell you the truth, we don’t know the answer to your question, but we can make a pretty good educated guess because we went through this when our parents passed away.
Therefore, we assume you will be required to show a death certificate and, perhaps, some documentation showing that you have the authority to take actions on behalf of the deceased (probably a will showing that you are the executor).
As an alternative, you can simple turn the free government cell phone off and not use it for 30 days. That is supposed to automatically cause the cancellation of the account. Lifeline customers are required to re-certify that they are eligible for a free government cell phone on an annual basis. So when that one year mark rolls around and the deceased does not re-certify, that should also trigger cancellation of the account.
In other words, you can take an action to cancel the account or simply do nothing and it will be cancelled (theoretically).
Karen Lesmeister says
Does a person have to have access to a computer or have email. I am working with an elderly person who does not have a computer our an email account?
Free Government Cell Phones says
No. We provide customer service phone numbers for each of the Lifeline free government cell phone service providers listed on this page, Karen.
Christina white says
What location has the free phone stands in Springfield mo
Free Government Cell Phones says
We urge you NOT to enroll at a street event, Christina. There have been too many cases of fraud and abuse. You are much safer enrolling by phone or online.
Briana says
Is there anyway I can use an old phone of mine and connect it to a government phone assistance? I really need a phone and cannot afford a monthly phone bill and would really like to use the phone I currently have.
Free Government Cell Phones says
You may be able to, Briana, depending on the make and model of your phone and which service provider you choose. Not all cell phones are compatible with all cell networks, so you should check with your chosen free government cell phone provider’s customer service team to find out if your specific make and model is compatible with its network. Here’s an article that will tell you more. Click here
Patricia says
Ive applied for the phone assistance about tuesday of last week. How long does it take for approval?
Free Government Cell Phones says
Most of the Lifeline companies say it takes about two weeks to receive your phone, but our readers say it often takes three or four weeks or even longer. Check the website of the company you enrolled with to see if it has a “Check Your Status” function.
Larry sanders says
We’re are you guys located at im in Kansas City mo trying get free phone with my food stamps

Sigh. This question again. Don’t enroll at a street tent or booth, Larry. There have been too many cases of fraud and abuse. Enroll online or by phone instead. You won’t get a phone today, but your personal info will remain safe.

Matthew Blossom says

Steve says
I would like to see [Labeled/Mentioned] or possibly an separate article done – which spells out which Lifeline Companies offer additional bonus to the Honorably Discharged US Military VETERAN.
Not necessary just for Missouri, but, site wide of all Lifeline Companies. I think if you covered this subject it’s popularly may grow between Veteran users and industry standards. So Please FGCP.
This type of Veteran bonus – will it survive mandated FCC Dec. 2016 changes?
Life Wireless does but, It’s hidden deep in their TOS, and then it at the
company discretion.
Life Wireless “Connecting Our Heroes” Program
Life Wireless will provide 100 free additional minutes each month to qualifying Life Wireless Lifeline subscribers who are active military service members or military veterans. Minutes do not roll over and are not transferable. The additional benefit is offered at Life Wireless’ sole discretion.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Interesting idea, Steve. We’ll do a little research and see if there are enough companies to warrant a full article.
Sandra Cieslewicz says
I am unemployed and moving to Missouri to try and start my life over.I have to support myself. I cannot afford the phone I have now anymore. Until I find a job I need assistance with a phone or what ever other help i could get.
Free Government Cell Phones says
You sound like exactly the person this program was designed for, Sandra. You need to check out all the companies listed in the article above. They each have slightly different twists (how many minutes, texts, data plans, etc) so check them all to find the plan that works best for you. Then contact that company using the contact info we’ve provided on each provider’s page.

I have a question for anyone who knows, Would I qualify for Lifeline as I receive Social Security disability, My GROSS monthly check is over the allowed amount, BUT after the take out for my insurance I am below the allowed amount. So which one would they go by as all the providers want me to fill out a application BEFORE they give me a answer! Please Help.
Free Government Cell Phones says
Please clarify. Do you receive SSI or SSDI benefits? You are eligible for a free government cell phone if you receive SSI, but not if you receive SSDI.
In answer to your question about your income, your eligibility is determined by your GROSS monthly income, not your net.
