I signed up. All customer service seemed good. Then the issues started with not being able to send MMS messages. I spent HOURS on the phone with various CSRs with still no resolution. I called again and asked for a supervisor. All I got was the run around saying that there was not one available. The CSR kept asking how they could help and asking what the problem was. It was like talking to a rock! How many times I explained it, how many times I said I was done with spending hours and days and now going on weeks without MMS, (which incidentally worked fine with my former provider).
FINALLY after raising my voice, the CSR said they would send my case to a level 2 and someone would get back to me. I asked when I could expect a call back. She again talked in circles about when I would hear back. I said, "Are we talking today, tomorrow, next week?" She replied that I should hear back the next day. Well it is now 24+ hours later and NOTHING!!!!! ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE. I'm ready to cancel the service!

Very upset. Been a customer for a couple years. Never had an issue. I got my mom a phone last fall and she passed away in April. I called and informed them. They said ok. Weeks later I gave the phone to my adult son, he called. Transferred his old phone to hers, used it for 1 week, then it stopped working. Called everyday for 2 weeks and each day was told to call the following day, their system was down.
In the meantime my dead mom got a collection bill from PureTalk’s collection agency. We paid it, they received it, called again today, talked to 3 people and were told it is on the black list. I told them it was paid, they received the payment. Nope can’t turn it back on. I’m like what do you want? More days to process. I said, "It’s been 2 weeks. He’s been without a phone. We will go somewhere else." So to port his number out they couldn’t do that either because it’s on the blacklist. We will get him a new number and go somewhere else. Unbelievable. Do not recommend.
Hello, Myia! We are so sorry for the hassle you’ve experienced while trying to transfer your son’s line. We know how frustrating it is to deal with service interruptions, especially when you’re just trying to get things sorted for your family.

Called Puretalk to buy an eSIM and port over a landline as a second phone number on my iPhone. As soon as I bought the eSIM and then ported over the number I gave it 72 hours as they requested. Now after two weeks, my number has not been activated. So for two weeks, I have no access to a phone number I had for 28 years. I call their Help line, and I keep getting people who do not know how to activate an eSIM. Frustrated and now completely NOT satisfied with Puretalk capabilities. I need help to get them to activate my line so I can get back to contacts. I had Puretalk already as my first phone line, but even being a current customer, I did not get any satisfaction or improved help from them. Each time I call back as they requested, I get people who do not know how to activate an eSim, as if it is the first time they have ever activated a new ported-over phone number.

Overall, I recommend PureTalk. We had some minor difficulties transitioning a few of our phones, but the US based support crew were exceptional. They got us squared away fairly quickly. The only reason I didn't rate them 5 stars was due to their overseas service. We travel to Europe and recently concluded our first trip using PureTalk. While PureTalk includes some overseas credits for talk and data, we didn't have coverage in many areas. Our primary communication method is texting, and it was disappointing how often our texts would not send. It was easier to wait until we had WiFi than to rely on PureTalk to connect with local providers. When we could connect, data credits were sucked up quick and this left us frustrated. This is the only area I think PureTalk could improve upon. Other than that, PureTalk provides great coverage in the US and exceptional customer service. We will not be going back to the big carriers!

When I first moved to PureTalk, I was informed I could use my phone as a hotspot for my business, as I did with Verizon. For three months, this proved true, then PureTalk, a subsidy of AT&T, decided I could no longer use this service. I got several different answers as to why, from I should have been 'grandfathered in," to "AT&T has never had this service." Had I known I was working with AT&T, I would have NEVER changed.
AT&T has extremely poor service in Montana; the service is extremely sub-par, therefore as a subsidiary of AT&T, PureTalk is no better. PureTalk claims a 5G service, however, I NEVER get better than LTE service 1(one) bar at best. The one thing PureTalk has going for it, is it is "cheep." Just remember the difference between cheep and inexpensive. PureTalk is CHEAP.

Updated on 05/17/2026: I wrote a previous review about Pure Talk not have any truly unlimited data plans. They wrote back, which you can see, but then hid my reply and have put my review under some sort of ‘resolution underway.’ That’s not true at all.

Original Review: The rates are low, but they don't offer any unlimited plans. They call them unlimited but they slow down data to such an extreme that they low speed data is completely unusable. To have no truly unlimited plan on data is unreal. I travel for work and just have to keep paying for more and more data if I want to stay with this greedy company. Ugh!!!

Original Review: April 23, 2026
Updated on 05/01/2026: Thank you for your response—I genuinely appreciate the follow-up and the credit applied to my account. I also want to acknowledge the outreach attempts on April 24 and April 25; I did see those calls and was honestly impressed by the effort. (I've increased my rating from 1 to 3.) I did return the call on April 27 and spoke with Winnie. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to assist and mentioned she needed a supervisor, which is consistent with my earlier experience on April 22. During that call, I spoke first with Amarhea, who was excellent and resolved my voicemail issue quickly—she was fantastic. My second call that day was with Aireahn regarding separating my 3111 line back onto its own phone. After an extended hold and checking with a supervisor, I was told this could not be done.
On April 27, Winnie advised she would submit a ticket to IT and that I would be contacted. As of now, I have not received any follow-up, and the issue remains unresolved. To clarify, my goal is simple: I would like the 3111 number placed back on its own device with the most basic plan available. I’ve even offered to have the line disconnected and re-added if that’s what it takes, but so far I’ve been told that isn’t possible.
I’ve now been working on resolving this for over a week, and it’s becoming increasingly frustrating. I’m not eager to change carriers again—I was with AT&T for over 30 years and moved to PureTalk based on a recommendation I trusted. Once my setup is working the way I need it, I’m very stable and tend to stay with a provider long-term. That’s why I would much prefer to resolve this quickly rather than start over elsewhere. If email is an option, I would welcome continuing communication that way so we can get this handled efficiently. Thank you again for your time and attention to this—I do appreciate the effort to make it right.
Original Review: I've only spoken with 2 representatives who were knowledgeable and seemed interested in their job. The others all sound like young girls who are barely awake, not at all interested in my concerns or their job, and not knowledgeable about the service. Many times, my signal gets so bad that I have to hang up and call the person back. I found out that is because even though Puretalk runs on AT&T lines, during busy times, the AT&T subscribers get priority, and Puretalk customers get slower data and inferior service. I joined 100% because of Mike Rowe's recommendation of you. He's always been right on other things, but wow, he sure got this one wrong. I'm so disappointed and canceling my service ASAP.

No complaints about PureTalk actual service. We upgraded my wife's iPhone and got her an Apple Watch. Service is fine - no complaints as a carrier. BUT DO NOT BUY A PHONE FROM PURETALK IF THE TRADE-IN ALLOWANCE IS IMPORTANT TO YOU. PureTalk uses a company called Phobio to handle the trade ins. We followed instructions to mail in phone - 2 months later our $213 trade-in was reduced to $0 because they said (1) we were late sending it in (we weren't and had shipping receipt to prove), and (2) they said screen was broken - it was not, and (3) they said the phone was locked. They offered to throw away phone or return it to us. We got the phone returned. We brought it to ATT where our service formally was - they confirmed phone was unlocked. We contacted PureTalk and all they do is point you back to Phobio.
We re-contacted Phobia and they now tell us while we cannot get the $213 trade in as that offer expired - we can get into a "Direct Rebate" program and we would get $190 as an Amazon gift card. So we sent the phone back to them. Once again - we are told that our phone is broken and therefore we are only eligible for a $38 Amazon gift card. We have asked them to return the phone.
We have given up oh Phobio - and we are now filing a complaint with the State of Connecticut Attorney General's Office, Consumer Protection Division. PureTalk by the way offers Zero support and Zero help. The most they will do is give you a number for Phobio - but you will be on the phone with a customer service person for literally hours. They will sound sympathetic but offer no help to resolve the matter.
I also bought a phone - but i bought mine through Amazon and my trade-in came in the form of an Amazon gift card almost instantly. If Phobio made everything right, i would have added my phone to the PureTalk account. But that didn't happen - so now I will shop phone plans again and try elsewhere. Integrity is more important than being a couple of bucks cheaper.
Hello Bob! We sincerely appreciate you reaching out and sharing your concerns. We are truly sorry for the frustration and disappointment that both you and Ms. Vance have experienced while working with PureTalk and our partner, Phobio.

We switched to Pure Talk from Verizon to save money and because Mike Rowe and his foundation endorse them. After switching, our phones would not send or receive phone calls. Using e-mail, customer service kept telling us that we needed to call customer service or technical service to resolve the problem. E-mail after e-mail I told them the phones couldn't make calls, but the rep kept telling us to call.
We finally told him to cancel our service, and he e-mailed back to tell us we had to do that by logging into our account online. When we logged in to cancel service, the website said that we needed to call customer service to do that. I spent the last years before retirement in the service industry dealing with dumb and ridiculous, but this is hands down the worst customer service I have ever encountered or heard of. This was a technical issue involving eSIMs that should have taken less than an hour to resolve, but stretched for a week. Pure disappointment is all we got out of switching to Pure Talk.

Good service all the way around - however, if you receive a large number of incoming and important calls beware: First, PureTalk recently changed its VM system from a product everyone is probably comfortable using from other carriers right now to one that is slow, time consuming to use and buggy. It insists on reading the 10-digit phone number, SLOWLY, before playing the message. This takes 20 seconds. Every time. Even if you are simply replaying the message to take notes.
Second, it terminates the call if you miskey two consecutive times. For example, after you have played a message, should you want to hear that message again, you would press "1". But if you don't wait long enough or the system mishears the "1" prompt, it simply says "I'm sorry you are having trouble" and disconnects. This is such an issue for me that I have to look at other carriers. PT is aware of the issue but has no plans to fix their unusable VM system. And it's an easy fix. Go figure.

I am a veteran and I love that PureTalk is a veteran owned company and even though there is not a actual store to go to I never have any trouble with customer service. Five stars all the way. I believe we started with Verizon, until they got so expensive we almost couldn't pay our house payment, LOL. Then we went to ** which I don't have anything bad to say about that company but pure talk got us by being a US company, by being veteran-owned, and we've had nothing but great customer service. Thank you so much.

Overall, I like PureTalk and what the company stands for. I have been with them for about 2 years. I have had no problem with billing or coverage. However, I discovered early on that I cannot send group texts to more than 10 people at a time. I have complained about this about every two months and been told that there is nothing they can do, or they are working on it. I am a member of several organizations (e.g., Rotary Club, Woman's Club, boards of directors, church and Bible study groups, local alumni association, family groups and friend groups, most of which have memberships between 15-25 members that I frequently need to contact as a group. I can receive the group texts, but cannot respond. So responses require opening another 1-3 threads just to give responses. If this isn't a problem for you, PureTalk is great. For me, I need them to do something about this soon, because I am tired of waiting for it to be addresses.
Hello, Winona! We completely understand the need for larger group messages and apologize for the current 10-recipient limit. It’s certainly not ideal for staying connected.

I've had Pure Talk for several years now and have been completely satisfied with the service and price. I brought a Tracfone with me but changed my number. My old number with Straight Talk was a recycled number and I would get nasty vulgar texts for a guy. They wouldn't do anything to help so I looked for another carrier. I had joined AMAC and heard about Pure Talk from them. When you call customer service you speak to someone in the US, always very pleasant and helpful. Today Bria with Pure Talk helped me to order a new phone. It's a pleasure to deal with caring customer service reps and also I feel good about using a Veteran owned business and I can round off my payment to help Veteran charities and services.
I've gotten excellent service with Pure Talk. Straight Talk was still updating my phone and texting me and when I called they said I wasn't a current customer so they couldn't help me. Exactly! I'm not a customer so why are you texting me and messing with my updates? I finally figured out how to block them on my own. I highly recommend Pure Talk, they are pleasant and ready to help and you speak to an actual person in the USA, not routed to another country that cannot understand the problem or provide any relief for your problem.

Very disappointed with your customer service. I decided to try Pure talk because of the Mike Rowe ads. When I signed up I thought I was getting the price Mike said on the radio ads. The price I received was $78 for 2 lines. When I heard the same commercial after this Mike said the price per line was $29.99 with unlimited talk & text for life. So I called customer service only to be told that this was a Black Friday promotion and I called too late. The radio ad did not mention this & I heard the same radio ad days after.

Having to call and type in my password every time and having to hit #1 to listen, #4 to save, #7 delete, etc is a time consuming pain. If you offered a VM like I had with Verizon.

So far PureTalk has been great, except for one thing... It's on the AT&T network. I had AT&T around 10 years ago for many (17) years, and after moving back home (to a house with a metal roof), I never had good service at home. I had to use AT&T's device called a microcell tower, which helped a little, but not enough. And let's not talk about their customer service (over and over again), which was the clincher for me dropping them and switching to T-Mobile. After being with T-Mobile for over 9 years, they had good customer service and I had great coverage with them... Even under a metal roof... But they just kept getting more expensive! Always something, isn't it? Haha! So at this point and time, I had been hearing more and more about PureTalk through commercials, but didn't do anything at first. Then....
A while later, I came across PureTalk's deal of $29.99 per month for life, so I did a LOT of research (knowing that PureTalk uses the AT&T network) and I found that AT&T had made big upgrades to their equipment over the last 10 years, so I bit the bullet and switched to PureTalk. My service has been great everywhere.... Except at home, which is spotty. Some calls I have no trouble with, but other calls, I have to go outside which can be a pain in the patooty, especially when it's later in the evening and I'm in a nightgown! Haha! I did purchase an indoor signal booster, which requires installation and antenna mounting, so I'm waiting for someone to help me with that, but otherwise.... I give PureTalk a thumbs up.😊

Switched from Xfinity (very bad) to PureTalk. Switched my mom, too. Only $10 cheaper and PureTalk will not throttle down to 3G if going over data usage, which sometimes happens when watching a video. PureTalk uses a different network, which has issues when traveling interstates across nation between antennas, doesn’t mesh well. I only have one bar at house and will get dropped calls outside, compared when I was on Xfinity. I have to be on Wi-Fi to prevent this. I will have to install extenders for outside use.
I was going to this anyway for cameras. Going camping in AZ, I have less coverage, too. My voicemail on iPhone doesn’t show messages, so I have to call myself every time I don’t answer to see if I have message or not. My previous saved messages from Xfinity did not transfer. No quick way to get to messages like *86, I have to call my phone to access, a little annoying, but obviously would be better if my voicemail just worked, probably some Apple thing. Sooo, I like I’m not giving money to non-conservative causes, not sure why phone companies do that anyway, whatever, probably has something to do with tax incentives. I like I’m spending less money and not being throttled. Don’t like coverage, despite talk radio hosts saying uses same antennas, being vague on purpose like I am too.

Customer service with PureTalk is a dream! These people are kind, helpful, and very knowledgeable about their products and services. I’ve called three times - when I first set up my service, when I purchased a phone through them, and when I had questions about using my HotSpot for my computer. Not only can I do this (of course), but it’s saving me from buying “AT&T Air” or “Comcast Internet”. That’s $55-70 a month I’m NOT spending with those companies! Since getting away from those is why I came to PureTalk anyway - it’s a double win. I’m very satisfied with every aspect of PureTalk thus far.

They are as good as it gets for customer service and quality connections almost everywhere. They are a little more expensive than some prepaid companies.

I'm happy with Pure Talk. The only question I have is with my Samsung A23. With my Samsung A12 I could hold my finger on a text and had the option to copy it so I could send to someone else. Now I have to retype everything. Any solutions would be appreciated. Gil
Hello, Gil! We’re so glad you’re enjoying the service!
To copy a message on your Samsung, just long-press the text until a menu pops up. Look for the copy icon (two overlapping rectangles) at the top of your screen.
If that doesn't show up, your specific model might have a slightly different shortcut—in which case, Samsung Customer Support can walk you through your specific settings.
