Twenty dollars per month for 500 minutes is good. That's the only thing good about these jerks. I'm on the auto refill monthly plan, but they send me a text msg anyway to tell me my acct is about to expire. Guess when they send it……MIDNIGHT!!!!

The $50 “UNLIMITED” phone and text service is simply NOT. They put a 2000-minute cap on your 30 days, and if you exceed it, they TERMINATE YOUR ACCOUNT, and tell you to buy more time. Exactly how much more than “unlimited” can you buy? I don't know how they can make an agreement to supply you with unlimited time, take your $50, and then cut you off early because you are – in their opinion – using too much time. This is legal here in the US for them to do this? Rediculous

The only reason i do not give far stars is because i can not send pictures i can recieve them if i have internet but i just recently paid for the 50$ plan and i have no clue if it has internet or not.it also says unlimited texting with this plan but i dont know if that is completly true i guess i will just have to find out!

Bought my phone off ebay, phone is a Sanyo SCP 7200, an older ruggedized phone brick. thats a dinosaur compared to todays lineup, but continue to get the runaround by CS. Typical of a low end, cheap, fly by night carrier, who does there Customer Service out of a run down crack house in the red light district alleys of Tijuana.

I don't know how to start. Any person who has family overseas should stay away from ready mobile. It's doesn't matter if you call oversea using a phone card or oversea call you using their credit, Ready mobile charge 10 minutes for every 1 minutes you talk. I called customer service about the issue, the person i spoke with told me it is what it is and suggest me to buy unlimited for $50.00 and i did it.Because i had unlimited, I started calling haiti,jamaica and later on i received a warning text message due to high usage. I believed was a mistake from them an i keep calling haiti and jamaica and i get a 2nd warninge. I called customer service again and ask them how come i have unlimited i buy my phone card to call haiti and i keep receiving warning about high usage. The operator told me that the unlimited it's for only the 50 states and i can't call oversea. I stopped call haiti and jamaica but sometimes I received call from them and finally i received last text message from customer services telling me that: My Account is being suspended due to high usage. NOW I AM WITH SIMPLE MOBILE WHERE I PAY ONLY $40.00 A MONTH AND I GET EVERYTHING I CAN SEND UNLIMITED TEXT MESSAGE TO HAITI AND JAMAICA WITH NO PROBLEM. Everybody who has family or friends overseas must stay away of this company they just steal your money.

Being double-billed for last 2 months. Never had any problems with phone, but it's nothing fancy. Customer Service reps are definitely not from America and are difficult to understand. Am trying to get them to stop double-billing me via their online option. We'll see what happens. Oh, and the minutes do NOT carry over for 90 days even if you pre-pay before they expire.

I bought my ready mobile 6 months ago, and loaded it with the 30 dollar plan. bought it at the general dollar store, I have never had any problems with my phone. I talk and text on it, maybe for some areas it does not work well, but for me it's ok.

Purchased a $25 phone, $30 minutes, from Dollar General. Drove home 12 miles, logged into Ready mobile site, Zero coverage for voice and data. Returned to the store with the unopened phone and was told no refunds on phones or minutes, check the receipt. Bunch of crap, knowing sell phones that do not work in Southern Mo. and Northern Ark. No signs about returns or service coverage maps, Store Mangers said sorry we have alot of problems with those (used) phones. Call Ready mobile, and per their own web site, no returns of loaded minutes, But since the phone had not been opened, no minutes loaded, it was agreed that I was to mail the phone to Hawatha Iowa for a refund. Got ripped off, the kept everything, phone receipt, minutes, took 4 weeks to get a $25. check. I lost $45 including shipping and stress. GSM phones do not work in rural areas, But the Tracphone CDMA and Verizon CDMA work great. Never do business with Ready mobile or buy Phones from Dollar General again.

I had to agree with everyone else, the service is terrible and customer service is almost useless. They just charge be but didn't turn my phone on. Calling them just gets me hung up on before anyone ever comes to the line. I'm going back to tracfone. It was more expensive but at least it WORKS!

I would give it 0 stars if I could. Worst phone, worst service, in fact, no service, other than setting up the phone I could never get a hold of another person, will have to eat $50 at my bank just to cancel their monthly withdrawl!!! My monthly service was only $20/phone both my husband and I had one! I hate pcs the phone and all of this worthless non service.

crazyphonelady, Just walk into a walgreens or walmart and buy a Tracfone for about $20.00.(I have the LG420g flip phone). I have never had a problem in over a year now and haven't had to contact CS so I can't comment on that. Here in Colorado and the western states I have great reception almost everywhere. No problem adding minutes on line and the minutes and service time left show right on the phone display so you always know where you stand.. Check them out and see what you think.

finding this site, is one of the greatest days of my life. This phone is so bad, that i would like to pickett the store that sold it to me, there is nothing that every goes right with this company and i mean nothing, Customer Serivce is mentally challanged,I once asked to speak to somone american and they got so mad, i'm sorry i cant understand whatever language they speak, when every a payment has to be made it is a 3 day project, they have given me someone else number and disconnected me, I am so frustrated. I am an everyday working person, and when i do have enough to buy a new phone, i will go to my backyard and smash it into a zillion pieces (I try to get it on youtube) so I can relieve months of frustration. ABSOLUTELY THE WORST PHONE EVER MADE. they make everything difficult and treat you like your the idiot. (i know you know who this is …ready mobile)….watch for the video

i dont like paying 15 dollars every week and if you want to get unlimited minutes you pay over 100 dollars a month and not many people have that type of money some people have families to support, people there are easier phones to get like boost mobile unlimited everything with 50 dollars a week or virgin mobile up to 25 dollars wich is 300 free calling minutes and unlimited messaging or 60 for unlimited. we are waisting our money just paying our bills.

Phone takes pictures, but no way to get them off of the phone. Website says no picture messaging available, says use online phoalbum. That's not supported on pre-paid phones. Mobile web is a joke, no google. Phone battery compartment broke first time opening, to insert the battery the first time. VERY DISAPPOINTED. says connot be returned after ten minutes of use. Says should use the free ten minutes that come with the phone. You have to MAIL the request for the free ten minutes.

Just bought my second Ready Mobile phone. First one went to the ex (she still uses it btw). Happy w/ their service… very few (if any) dropped calls. The variety of payment options is the best. $5 for 50 minutes.. now that's perfect for someone who doesn't talk a lot (like me). But, if I need to do a lot of talking I can purchase an unlimited package and it won't break the bank. Keep truckin' ReadyMobilePCS!!

Purchased phone + $10 pkg. Also, $50 unlimited month. Gift for handicapped housebound person. Phoned ReadyMobile to make sure of reception before purchase. Assured of GREAT RECEPTION. Truth is, NO RECEPTION!!! attempted 6 calls at different areas in & around home..nothing but garble..Called Ready Mobile..Foreigner Customer Serv guy kept saying he wanted to help but then couldn't help at all..said supvevisor would call me..never happened..no reimbursement of $50..took phone back to store and they finally after much talking refunded the purchase of phone.

People that write bad reviews about ready mobile are retards or don't know what the heck they are doing or are just getting paid to witre a bad review. I've had ready mobile for a while now and I think it's the best thing out there! Phones are really great! I've found some nice ones. Plans are great too! They fit my needs and customer service is 100% awesome! Never had anything go wrong with them. One tho wish they had a data plan for the phones. lol other then that I like it. 🙂

I've had AT&T for over 10 years and just got tired of paying the high cost. Service terrible and unresolved complaints so I cancelled my contract. But, I have to say that Ready Mobile is even worse. Thought I'd try out prepaid cause it seemed less expensive. But, I wasted alot of $ today on this piece of crap phone and have no service at all. It says digital roaming. If it's roaming then why do they sell them locally?? I would not advise anyone to purchase this product.

Consumer Review

Bought one of these phones at Food Lion for about $40. The phone was in roaming and wouldn't make a call. After checking the coverage map online, there is NO coverage anywhere in my area. Also the phone number that comes with phone was a Texas number and I live in North Carolina. The phone itself was actually refurbished and the battery door didn't fit the phone right and it kept falling off and the battery would fall out. I tried to return it to the store but they wouldn't take it back. Now I will probably have to go through a bunch of crap trying to contact the company to see if I can return it to them.

The only problem I have with ReadyMobile cell service is they do not give you enough days to use your minutes. It has become very expensive and I cannot afford to pay this wen there are companys that have complete plans for cheaper than this.

Didnt even activate the service yet and have already had problems with the phone. A blank white screen on the Sanyo S1, and I have to take out the battery each and every time to restart the battery to get it going again. There S1 phones swallow and are on the CHEAP end of the deal. It will make for a good skeet shooting target.As for the service, I plead the fifth, since I never had it even activated. Sorry Readymobile, but your NOT Ready, at this time.

I feel very upset and pissed for the fact I can't check minutes or speak with customer service. Its too costly for the minutes. Virgin Mobile gives you 600 minutes and unlimited nights + weekends and your minutes are free at 7pm only for 60 bucks compared to Mojo Mobile you pay 75 bucks for 500 minutes it's very frustrating but I needed a phone I had no choice. If you buy this phone Id say this is for people who don't talk alot then you get your money worth but if you are on the phone like me 24-7 then it's a rip off…word.

Nicole

Consumer Review

December 27, 2007

In my opinion this phone steals minutes from the consumer, when you call to tell them about your problems the operators are very rude and don't seem to care that you are unhappy. The information in the package tells you that calling thier 800 number is free. But it isn't and they refuse to credit you those minutes waiting on hold for them. Voicemail is not automatic as you would expect, but has to be activated, they say in 24hrs, it has now been a wek and no voicemail, ask for a supervisor they have to call you back, but never do. I am sending in my refund for the phone and telling them to kiss where the sun don't shine
