2015 update: The top dozen deals in free government cell phones

July 15, 2015

You may be wondering what could be better than free. And the answer is a simple one: Getting more for free is better than getting less for free.

With that in mind, we combed through all the deals offered by dozens Lifeline Assistance free government cell phone companies in all fifty states, Puerto Rico and Washington, DC to find the very best plans — the ones that give consumers like you the most for free. Without further delay, here are the very best of the best.

1. Budget Wireless: Offers low-income residents of Oklahoma a free SMART phone, unlimited voice minutes, unlimited texts and 500 MB of data for free

2. Feel Safe Wireless: The Feel Safe California plan comes with a free phone, unlimited talk, unlimited text, 100MB data and 100 free international texts.

3. Feel Safe Wireless: Offers Oklahomans a free cell phone, unlimited talk and text, mms and 200MB of data every month.

4. Tag Mobile: Low-income Californians can now get a free cell phone, unlimited voice calls and unlimited texting PLUS 100MB of data per month.

We have a three way tie for the plans offering the fifth best free government cell phone plans. All of these offers are also available only in California.

5. Assurance Wireless: The California FREEdom Plan offers you a free cell phone, unlimited free voice and unlimited free texts.

5. Budget Mobile: Offers low income Californians a free cell phone plus unlimited free voice and unlimited free texts.

5. ReachOut Wireless: ReachOut has stepped up its game in California and now provides customers with a free phone, unlimited voice minutes and unlimited texts.

8. Tag Mobile: offers its Oklahoma customers 3000 voice minutes, 3000 texts, and and 30mb of data free

9. Total Call Mobile: Offers Californians 1000 minutes of talk within the United States and 1000 texts worldwide.

10. Access Wireless: Access offers financially-struggling Californians a plan that includes an Android smartphone, 1000 minutes OR texts, plus 200MB data usage each month.

11. TruConnect (aka Telscape and Surelink Mobile): TruConnect offers its California customers 1000 voice minutes plus 200 texts per month.

12. enTouch Wireless: Needy Californians can a phone and 1100 voice minutes and texts. That’s 1100 for both voice and text combined.

Let’s not leave out two companies that deserve honorable mentions.

Two Lifeline Assistance companies offer low-income residents of Alaska free government cell phone programs that could have made our top ten list except for one little thing (and we do mean little thing). The free government cell phone program isn’t quite free in Alaska. Those who qualify for the program are required to pay $1 per month for the same services that residents of other states get for free.

Let’s put a positive spin on the situation and say that these companies make a dollar go further than almost anyone else.

True Wireless: Oklahoma’s financially-stressed residents can get a free Android smart phone, 1750 free voice minutes plus 2000 texts PLUS 5 MB of data for just $1 per month

Assist Wireless: Assist offers Oklahoma’s poor unlimited voice and text plus 200 mb for a very affordable $4.95 per month

Alaska Communications: Offers unlimited talk and text for just $1 per month

Alaska Digitel: Offers unlimited Talk and text for just $1 per month

Easy Wireless: Qualified Oklahoma residents receive an unlimited talk and text plan for $4.95 per month

So there you have it. The top dozen deals in free government cell phones (plus a handful of honorable mentions), the companies and plans that give you more for less.

Obviously, the list is dominated by companies from three states — California, Oklahoma and Alaska. But that may well be explained that the poverty rates are higher than the national average in those states and the companies are simply responding to the local situations.

Nevertheless, we can always hope that competitive forces will encourage additional companies in additional states to step up their games and begin offering generous programs like the ones shown above.

    I’m with TagMobile and I’m supposed to get 2gb data, but it’s ultra slow as a hotspot after 500 mb, probably throttled. I’m talking abut 56-110 kbs slow. I’m running YouTube to see if I’m getting my 2gb data and YouTube starts and stops repeatedly.

      Some of the plans offered “unlimited” plans that throttle down the speed after a certain number of gigs are consumed. Check with your service provider to find out if that is the case with your service plan.

      Two possibilities: One is that the website was in error. The other is that the end of Q Link’s service area actually falls between your house and your friend’s. In either case, you should contact Q Link customer service by phone or online to verify the information.

      You’re right, it sucks, Ben. Here’s an article that explains why residents of those two states get far more minutes that residents of other states (Alaskan residents get more minutes and texts, too).

      As to whether you should move, only you can decide if unlimited minutes is worth the time, trouble, and expense of a cross country move.

      Absolutely, Mary Ann. By law you can always take your number with you when you switch from one Lifeline company to another. You just have to make sure you tell the new company that you want to “Port over my current number.”

      First, contact Safelink. They should be able to tell you if you’re one of their customers if you give them all your info.

      Second, if you learn that it’s not Safelink, call 6-1-1 and see who answers. It should be your service provider.

      Third, if you find out who your service provider is, here’s an article that tells you what to do in case of a lost phone:

    Hello,

    I currently have Metropcs. My phone is damaged so its hard to ses or use. I can only afford $5-25 per month for now. I was in California now in Georgia. What can I do to have Access and a phone that has a screen large enough to use without the purchase of a tablet for school? I only have Medicare right now and do not have an income cause my SSI is in suspension.

    Thank you advance for your help.

      Most of the free government cell phone companies offer smart phones as an upgrade. In some cases, if you’re really lucky, you’ll be given a smart phone initially. But it’s the luck of the draw. The upgrades are relatively inexpensive — usually in the $40 range.

      Go to our “States” page (found in the navigation bar at the top of this page) to check what’s available in your state. If your state does not offer as many minutes/texts as California or Oklahoma, get in touch with your state’s public utility commission to ask why. There’s no reason every state shouldn’t offer as many minutes as Oklahoma and California.

I’ve been wondering if there is ANY possible way I could transfer my free cell phone program over to a Android? It’s an old cheap pre-paid phone I’d received as a gift years ago. I DO NOT understand why in the world I wouldn’t be able to…I mean Im NOT asking for any free internet nor any free data, or anything extra! All I’m asking to do is transfer my account that already includes free mins/texting, over to a different phone…PLEASE can someone tell me is there a way to do that? (Currently Im using SAFELINK wireless, but I’m wondering if I switch over to Assurance Wireless can I use my old android phone? Because the android phone I have Is actually a pre-paid LG by Virgin Mobile, and since Assurance Wireless is affiliated with Virgin Mobile, I figure it shouldn’t be a problem!….RIGHT?

    You need to update your info. You have Budget Mobile listed all over your pages and in the number one spot on a lot of them. They are going out of business in California causing there current customers the mess of having to transfer their “Obama Phones” “Government Phones” and/or “Lifeline Phones” whatever they may call them, to have to be transfer/move to another provider. It is a real pain to have to do. I have also heard (do not know for fact) that they are still taking peoples money to setup new service & will not be refunding any money to anyone. So you should check into Budget Mobile for your selves & update accordingly. Other then that your info is very helpful and I’d like to thank you for your services.

    I just spoke to ReachOut Wireless. They told me they’re not accepting California customers right now. I didn’t ask why. This is the second California provider among the top 12 today who refused my application. Is there a reason why this is happening?

    I’m finding this website very helpful as I try and decide what lifeline provider to try, but you might want to amend your assessment of Feel Safe Wireless. I just tried to apply for the California plan and was told they weren’t taking applications for that state because that part of the website was down. This had been the case for a month, and they had no estimate as to when things would change. The whole thing feels very unsafe.

    Well, Hooray for CA and OK. When did OH succeed from the Union? Maybe I’ll move to CA…

    That’s great for those in Alaska and California, buy what do you offer to a 50+, low-income, Nevada resident.

      Not everybody can get everything. Californians I’m sure wish they had your Nevada income tax rate of zero.

        Not everyone can get everything? I think she realizes this since we are on a site looking for reviews about government sponsored phones. I don’t think expecting that your list would maybe include at least one company that services ALL or even MOST the states is asking all that much. But go ahead and be snippy. She can’t reply. She doesn’t have a phone.

    This is an interesting article. My question is, “What is there about the dynamic in California and Oklahoma that makes them so different in what is being offered”? That would be a great follow up to this article.
