My name is Lloyd **. I am NOT a Puretalk customer. But apparently another person named Lloyd ** set up a cell phone account with you several months ago. That person told Puretalk that his email address is **. THAT IS INCORRECT. I own and use that email address. I also own and use **. Note a DOT between lloyd and ** in that address. I have been receiving emails from Puretalk that should be going to your customer, AND NOT ME. When this first happened I contacted Puretalk to ask that you contact your "**" customer and get a correct email address. But that has not yet happened. I do not know the mobile number associated with this account. If I did, I would call that person to ask him to contact Puretalk and provide their correct email address. Please take care of this problem. Please let me know when the correction in your database has been made. Thank you.
Hello, Lloyd! Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the error. We have removed you from the email list. You should no longer receive emails from PureTalk.

Once I had my own information correct, it was a seamless switch to Pure Talk. I did have to contact customer service to figure out what I needed as far as my own info to switch (because I’m 63 and not very technically inclined).

I have been a customer for about two months. When I signed up for PureTalk I explained my phone use and signed up. After a week I called CS because my phone was slowing down and unusable. Called CS. Was on hold for close to an hour. When I talked to a rep they said I used up my unlimited data? What. They reviewed my recorded conversation when I signed up and said it was the plan I signed up for and I explained it's not the plan I signed up for, I got the plan you put me on. They agreed and put me on the plan I was suppose to be on at No charge, Great. Well not so fast, after less than a month my phone is once again unusable because it's so slow.

PureTalk claimed they had service in the remote area my daughter lived. She had no service there at all, nor for several miles radius. And don't expect to get help. They don't have a chat option - it is phone call only. Every time I have called I have been on hold for over 45 minutes. I believe my record on hold was 1 hour 52 minutes.

I appreciate the free month! Just know, I called twice for the exact result I got here by writing a bad review.
Original Review: April 24, 2024
I switched from AT&T to Pure Talk almost 6 months ago. The first 5 months were fine, with no problems. But this last month has been nothing short of HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE SERVICE. I can’t get YouTube videos to play. Most of the time even the thumbnails won’t load. My phone calls are constantly in and out. I have to ask multiple times "Can you repeat that?" The service can’t even stream music, which requires much less bandwidth than video. Hell, I had to leave the grocery store, because my shopping list (Apple Reminders) wouldn’t load, and web pages wouldn’t load.
So, I called Pure Talk last week (April 17th, 2024), and spent over 30 minutes with tech support for nothing. No change. They told me there was an outage from AT&T! What the hell does AT&T have to do with Pure Talk? Well, It’s their back-bone! I left AT&T because of their VALUES and was told Pure Talk Represents my values, but the reality is, my money is still going to AT&T. At the end of the call, I told the agent I wanted a refund for HORRIBLE SERVICE over the past 4 weeks. A week later, no one has called. I called them back, got switched to 3 different people, who all put me on PERMA-HOLD, and I got to listen to the same BORING recording singing the praises of Pure Talk, while I held for a SOLID HOUR. I finally hung up, with ZERO RESULTS! It literally felt like they were just going to keep my hold until I hung up. So I guess they win and I lose! Looking for the next place to take my money. Any suggestions?

Switched from ATT to Puretalk. Traded in my I phone 11 cause I wanted an Android. The Samsung Android turned out to be an A14 which is a very low end phone. Nothing like the I Phone 11. Also the refurbished phone came password locked and spent most of the day between Puretalk Tech and finally had to call Samsung and install a Google account to reset password. The phone cost was $160. They won't let me return is or give me a penny toward a higher end phone. Cause I have it more then 14 days. So the $160. is a complete waste. I think the agent knowing I was giving up an I Phone 11 should have better advised me on a new phone. I will now have to throw this away and get service elsewhere.

I, Paul's wife, am very frustrated w/ the problems of his Pure Talk voicemail. We've had it set up, reset twice w/ tech. help but now he can't access it. A message says it hasn't been set up. I've gone to customer portal to have voicemail reset but still get the message when attempting to sign in w/ password or the ability to change it. My voicemail doesn't require a password & has easier access through Tracfone so I don't understand why Pure Talk can't be simpler as well. Thank you for inviting a response to your network. Paul is satisfied with everything else about Pure Talk.

PureTalk sent me a physical sim card. Upon contacting a live person (monumental task) the tech support activated my sim incorrectly (didn't port over my number). This required me to order a completely new sim card (at my cost for a second time). Customer support offered a $3 refund after charging me $40 twice. When requesting to talk to a supervisor, they told me they would give me an email address. DO NOT USE PURETALK!!!

Updated on 06/18/2024: So I did decide to go with PureTalk. Something has changed in the last 90 days. Everything buffers now. When I run a speed test I usually get a response that my internet connection is so slow. I'm going to call them one time see if they can correct the issue. But it absolutely is not the same service that I had 3 months ago.
Original review: I switched to PureTalk and allowed them to issue me a number because I did not want to switch over my 22-year number until I knew the service was good. Everything was going well and I called customer service and told them I wanted to Port over my old number that I've had for 20 years and they said that I could not until the current month expired. I would basically be renewing a whole new service using my ported number. So I had to pay for 3 months with the old company to preserve my number. And I left a review on Trustpilot. Ever since that review and the company answered that review my service has gone to crap.
I have such slow service. When I run the speed test it almost does not complete. When it does complete it tells me that my internet service is extremely slow. I am nowhere near using all of my data. I still have 91% of my data remaining and the speeds are disgustingly slow. All of this happened after my negative review and the company answered too.

I was excited to switch to Pure Talk and took advantage of a good deal on the new 5g phone. When I got the phone in, I had some health struggles due to the stronger radio waves and more powerful battery, which also caused the phone to overheat frequently. I had never dealt with these health problems when using 4g phones. Nausea, headache and constant insomnia were the main issues I struggled with. I resorted to keeping the phone on airplane mode 90% of the time, which made a positive difference in my health, but obviously rendered the service useless.
In the process of reporting these issues to call center and trying to switch back down to 4g, (which turns out is not possible with the new devices) I was met with some confusion from some of the staff, even being hung up on once because I probably sounded crazy. One call center staff member lied and told me I gave her the wrong pin number in order to end the call. I don't remember many names since this happened months ago, but it can be researched in my call history. I spent more money ordering an unlocked older phone from Amazon (no 4g phones available through Pure Talk at the time) and the IT department sent me a useful email to help me get it working. I was able to return the 5g phone in the nick of time to get a refund, thanks to a very helpful call center employee. My 4g phone is much safer for my body and I can go on using it without insomnia or nausea.
I used to get 5 bars with Verizon in my home, and with Pure talk I'm only getting 1, even when I was testing the 5g. It still seems to work, but does often cut out when I try using the hotspot for my weekly online class. This is annoying to me, but I'm working around it for now because I was paying about $15 more a month for the same data package at Verizon. I haven't decided whether I will keep Pure Talk for good, but it is adequate at the moment. Many of the staff members are very nice and professional, and I believe in supporting these types of veteran-owned businesses.

First, the service has never been as good as it was with Verizon. We don't have good service in places that make no sense. But the deciding factor was when I made a trip out of the country and I was essentially dead in the water. Initially I had no service and your rep could not figure out why. I got it working myself, but even with repeated purchases of top-off data, nothing worked. Messages would take forever to send, and if I tried to do anything it used all my data. I used Wi-Fi anywhere I could to avoid using data. My travel experience was an epic fail. As a result I am going back to Verizon even though I have to pay more.

When I switched to PureTalk from TracFone, I could not get my data to work. I called customer service and they transferred me to technical support. After finding out a few things, the technician told me that only Android 11 or higher were supported by PureTalk. I had Android 10. That meant either I had to go through the trouble of porting my number back to TracFone and going through switching back; or buying a new phone. Many other companies still support Android 10.
I still wanted to support the American company PureTalk. I saw the deal that I could get the phone I wanted for $50. When I called, they said since I had already been signed up for my service, they could only give it to me for $199. I ended up buying it elsewhere for $130. My husband did call back and another worker offered him the phone for $50, but I had to sign up for a 2-3 year contract and get $4 worth of insurance every month for the phone. At least she tried to help, unlike Jasmine who I had dealt with. After having this phone for a few weeks now, I really miss my old one. I liked how it operated and was used to it.

1. Poor coverage at home address and at other locations traveled. 2. Also recently learned that AT&T tracks/records all phone calls received or initiated on their network and then tracks those numbers also. In addition to that they also track all texts, data, etc. Although illegal, FCC lets them do it as long as AT&T agrees to furnish all this info to different gov't agencies. And since Pure Talk uses AT&T network, one assumes Pure Talk allows this activity as well. We have done nothing wrong or have anything to hide but do not approve of this illegal activity. Don't believe the other major cell providers are doing this and so it will probably be wise to go back to Verizon.

Switching from one of the big conglomerates was the best decision I’ve made in ages. I’ve been with Pure Talk for several years now and I can’t tell you how nice not worrying about mystery charges and moving target phone bills is. My bill is exactly the same month after month and it’s literally half the price it was under my last provider. The service quality is just as good if not better too.
Another big plus is Pure Talk’s customer support. If you do have a question about something, it’s refreshing to be able to talk to a real person instead of getting passed around from automated department to automated department. There’s never any upselling and the people at Pure Talk make you feel like an actual person instead of a number or personal piggy bank. The entire Pure Talk experience has a down to Earth mom and pop vibe to it the big guys simply can’t provide. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. If Pure Talk ever ventures out into high speed internet service, I’ll be in Heaven!

I have been very pleased with PureTalk service. PureTalk has given me what I wanted and needed at an appropriate cost. I am not a power-user of smartphone services but I still have certain basic service needs. I have gotten that from PureTalk and have never had a service outage or been unable to get a signal.

I am very happy with my domestic service, but very discouraged with international! All 3 cell companies I’ve had offered as you go type plans where there was a nominal daily fee charged for days I was out of the US & made calls. Please add a plan like that!! I am only out of the US 10-15 days a year so it doesn’t justify your fee for the international add on that’s always on. Pls consider adding “pay-as-you-go" type option for infrequent travelers!

We had no issues during our time with Puretalk. We ported the number out only to join our family plan on another carrier. However, our porting out experience wasn’t quite 5-star as we weren't told we had to specifically request the number should be "released". But, a second call took care of that and all is good. Thank you for the years of service. We can recommend Puretalk without reservation.

No problems with service at this point. Service more cost effective vs. Other providers. I have service everywhere big companies have service. No problems with customer service.

I checked with PT before I purchased a phone to use and PT told me it was compatible for your service. I signed up for service and for the second time (I tried to sign up 2 yrs. ago), it was not delivered. I could neither call out nor receive calls. So I will not recommend nor try your service again. I only wanted to support a vet-owned company and am very disappointed that I am not able to do that. The phone number you assigned me was **.

Very difficult to get help, phone gets disconnected continuously, making it more difficult to get assistance. Not happy at all with service. Second phone is still not working. Not sure what I will do at this point. I was charged for Sims cards I didn't need. You have not lived up to your great advertising. I left a company that I had been with for 20 years expecting everything that you advertised that your company would provide. I guess I am the fool and now I must decide if I wish to continue. At this point I'm afraid to call to even try to get the second phone up to speed.
