BEWARE OF CONSUMER CELLULAR

[DoloresB570641]

I switched to Consumer Cellular via AARP. While vacationing in Mexico, I could not make calls, take calls, send texts or receive texts. I could not log into their web site to get help. Needless to say, Consumer Cellular was a total let down for this Senior citizen. THEN, as soon as I got back to the States, I went and switched back to the cell service I had before. I paid the balance for the usage and owed NOTHING MORE. I switched at the start of a new billing cycle and Consumer Cellular wants me to pay for the whole month. The only reason I used them at the start of the new billing cycle was to get the exit codes to this HORRIBLE service. I will NOT pay for services NOT RENDERED. SENIORS BEWARE of CONSUMER CELLULAR.

Switch to Mint. Free roaming and 3GB data in Canada, and free calling To Mexico, Canada and the UK From the US, as well as free texting to over 190 countries.

Save $15 (a month's worth of  service) with https://my.mintmobile.com/refer/GSoTfE) ! Kept my number, good service and only $15.xx per month. When abroad, use WiFi calling if your phone allows

That’s rough, especially while travelling. I’ve learned the hard way to test roaming and support before fully switching carriers, saves a lot of stress later.
