Page Plus gets Kyocera G2GO M2000
June 8, 2010/
If that handset looks familiar, it’s because Virgin Mobile picked it up a little over a year ago. Now we learn that Page Plus has added the Kyocera G2GO M2000 to its lineup. It’s a multimedia phone with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard to satisfy the messengers among the Page Plus faithful. It features a 1.3 megapixel camera and a 2.4-inch QVGA screen that adapts to landscape and portrait modes, depending on how you’re holding the phone. It also has a microSD slot that can support a card of up to 8GB. The handset is available now. You can get it at Page Plus’s website for $139.95. ]]>

This is a straight out ripoff. The XTC or Virgin Mobile’s version of this is being closed out at Best Buy/Walmart for fifty bucks.
If you have PagePlus then you are paying for the phone to already have the actual PagePlus softwear on it. I just purchased one and I think it was worth the extra $. So many cell phones for PagePlus, that are at local dealers, are refurbished flashed phones. I like the phone so far, only thing is I wish it were windows based like the Motorola Q.
Page plus is the worse service ever. Customer service will never responce and when they do they are rude and never help. Save your self a lot of problems with this stupid company and go with the real cell phone providers Verizon or ATT, or any other that this Page Plus jerks.
These Kyrocera phone are junk . Don’t buy one !
I gotta strongly disagree with Jorge here… we were with Verizon for a long time and our bill was nearly $200.00 a month! And that was with a set number of minutes, NO texting and NO data stream. I did a lot of research and found PagePlus. I have had nothing but excellent service from polite, professional CSR’s. AND, my wife now has an unlimited plan, and I am on their 1299 plan (MORE than enough for me!) We used to have issues with dropped calls with Verizon, have yet to have that happen with PagePlus. In fact, my wife travels quite a bit and she says she now has service where she didn’t before! The kicker? Our monthly cell expense is less than HALF of what we were paying with Verizon here in North Central Florida! Give ’em a try, it’s no contract. If you don’t like it, leave it!
I have also had trouble with the customer service department. I tried to get ahold of them for over a year and just gave up. Do I still have PagePlus? Yes. It is the best prepaid that I can find. So I put up with really really bad customer service. I guess I should say nonexistent service. Their cell service works and is very reasonably priced.
I agree with the terrible customer service. You may wait upwards of 45 min to get someone, and that person will be “not so helpful” in answering your questions, but not always. It depends on who you get. And at times, I’ve only waited 10 to 15 min.
Re upping (adding min or renewing your month) by credit card is a long slow process. You have to wait on hold too long for a simple task. It’s best to get a PIN and use the #737 to do it automated.
My Verizon Motorola Droid X was ported over to pageplus in 25 min, getting a NEW phone number, not pre existing. 10 min on hold, and about 10 to 15 min to activate.
I can get to the Verizon Market Place for droid apps without issue, surf the net, check email, etc. I use the 30.00 plan. 100mb for data is not quite enough but it’s better than big red’s higher pricing.
Page Plus is an excellent value for the money! My son and I have used Page Plus for 1 1/2 years. The few times I’ve contacted service have been painless, including when my son’s phone developed a problem that required replacing the unit. A new one arrived quickly, at no charge!
Yes, their customer service is not nice but you too would be grouchy if you were constantly being called by idiots that wanted to add $10 to their phone or dispute a $3 phone call (this service saves you a minimum of $50 a month; let it go) Set up auto pay via their web site. If you need more minutes, buy them on the site and enter the pin on your phone. You’ll never talk to customer service and you’ll get great signal at a cheap price.
I just use the Pageplus site for everything .bill paying and such ,never have to contact customer service for anything ..It is nioe and cheap and seems to work well ..
I second, just use the pageplus site and you’ll rarely have to talk to a CSR. But if you do just have 15-30 minutes of patience and you’ll always get someone and they’re usually pretty helpful, some really helpful. They save you a ton and the service is awesome!
I have never had a problem with any CSR and I’ve talked with them maybe 5 times in the last 3 yrs, mainly to have them switch my existing # to a new phone. Any CSR I’ve ever had an encounter with was pleasant, very hospitable, helping me in any way I can and always ask to see if there is anything else I need before I end the call. Their coverage is great here in this midwestern town and hey $44.95 + tax…..I’m not mad 🙂 ….like one reader said before….try it, there’s no contracts, if you don’t like it. Find another wsp.
i must say page plus customer service has gotten better you dont have to wait all day to speak to someone the coverage is great i can get reception in wolly world (walmart)and the price has gone down by 5 dollars now dats whats up lol
If you call customer service right at opening time (8 am ???) you get through real quick
And the 39.99 unlimited is the best out there with great coverage all over as it is the Verizon network.
You got what you paid for. Rude, unprofessional, helpless, stupid customer service representatives. Although replaced phone arrives at no charge, but you have to pay to send back the phone that had problem! Returned label is not available.
I have no problems with PagePlus. I ordered it on the website and received it in a reasonable time as expected. When I called to activate it I talked to someone who actually spoke clearly and in English (which is more than I can say for most of the other companies). My call was answered in about 2 minutes and everything is fine.
I read all the negative responses on the kyorea go2go phones. Believe me I felt the same way when I first received one. I felt it had a lot of problems. So I quit Pageplus. Now i am thinking of going back. I realized the problem with phone was me and it was new. Everything was real stiff on it. Now that I have played with it and read up on it, it is real easy to use. Just was not broke in. The thing I noticed that it really is refered to as a Sanyo Kyocera Xtc M2000. Sanyo cell phones are noted for there reception quality in remote areas and Kyocera makes them according to online resources.
I have been customer of pageplus for 2 years.I am very satisfied with the comp. and the price is definately right!
I disagree page plus is the best believe me all the headaches with att and how expensive verizon is, att is the worst company in the world. PAGE PLUS RULES IS THE BEST A++++ AWSOME CUSTOMER SERVICE GREAT SERVICE AND AMAZING PHONES
