There is no way to describe how much I love Pure Talk. I get a live person within 2 minutes or less, who is always able to answer my questions. That alone should make the entire planet switch to Pure Talk. And no, my mother isn't the president, I just LOVE not having to deal with an automated robot who takes 45 minutes to get me to a different automated robot because it has no idea what to do with my call.

Every one is so respectful, and polite, I have never had a better experience, and honest people. No matter what the question is they got it. I like the idea that they speak English, and I can understand what they are saying, and that it's American, can't ask for a better phone company.

Had a very poor experience with PureTalk. Was trying to assist my parents with an issue (they’re both in their 80’s and were having difficulty with their phone) and the service rep, LaMaya (sp?) took my payment but then refused to answer basic questions or activate the phone and refused to allow me to talk to a supervisor. So frustrating and disappointing. I strongly recommend staying away from Pure Talk.

I have been with PuretalkUSA for 8 years. Prior to that I was on Virgin Mobile. I switched to Pure Talk, because using the AT&T network, which Pure Talk is on, gave me better coverage when visiting family. I have had pretty good luck with Pure Talk. It is not common, but it does happen, that I’m unable to connect. Most of the time the network is perfect. Pure Talk pricing is that you get a certain amount of gigabytes at a high speed, after which you still have service but it’s at a slow speed. Often the slow speed is too slow to connect to the Internet, but adequate for making phone calls. I’ve only had to get tech-support once. I did not have to wait on the line too long and they resolved my problem quickly.
I recently added a second line for $30 a month -$3 dollars discount for a second line. I just looked on their website and they’re saying that their monthly charges are half off. Presumably only new customers would get my service for $15 a month? I am much happier having my own phone and using Pure Talk USA than I would be having to deal with T-Mobile or Verizon. Their annual cost is ridiculous. After buying my phone, I spent $360 a year for one line with Pure Talk USA.

I am pretty much happy with PureTalk over Verizon, except for one thing. I asked for unlimited service but as soon as I hit 60 gigabytes, which happened on July 20th, my internet slows down to a crawl, and I even can't pick up Fox News at night to watch Hannity! This is terrible! Everything finally resets on the second of the month. I called up twice complaining about this and am told that the internet slows down after 60 gigabytes with every company, but I do not remember this happening with Verizon!
I do not have a computer so as to use it to relieve stress off of my phone. There were days with Verizon when the internet would slow down but that was usually due to bad reception. So, I would therefore like to say this. If you want to compete with Verizon, you are going to have to provide a service comparable or even exceeding that of Verizon. I want to stay with PureTalk and not go back to Verizon, so I would like to see you make an improvement in this area. Thank you!
Hi, Vince! Our unlimited data plans include 60GB of high-speed data. Once you reach your allotted high-speed data, the speed throttles to 256 kbps.

The company responded and made this whole. All that was requested was open, upfront, and honest communication which eventually did occur. Unfortunately, it did have to be escalated to achieve that result.
Original Review: July 31, 2025
This company chose to charge my card for service and overnight shipping on a sale that was made knowing that I had a limited amount of time to change providers before my bill would be due again. After fighting their email system (will only allow non-free accounts to register) and my debit card being declined twice, I was able to get my order to finally process (WITH AN AGENT ON THE PHONE).
The next morning at 9:07 CST I received a message from the fraud department of Telrite. There is NO reference to TELRITE in ANY of PURETALK's documentation, and would appear to be fraud itself on the face of a normal consumer. After researching and finding that PURETALK is OWNED by TELRITE HOLDINGS, I submitted the requested information. I am also informed that it would be NEXT WEEK before this could be addressed. When asked about refunding the shipping as I would not be getting the product or service I paid for, they haphazardly told me they could refund my entire order and I could just walk away. Not the point. You are selling a service (at minimum, the shipping speed KNOWING I had a deadline) that you will not provide. Textbook definition of Deceptive Trade Practices and Theft.
I was promised a callback as all of their managers were "in a meeting". This is why I wanted to change from a company mainly ran by foreigners but now am second guessing this. Makes me wonder if it is actually AMERICAN companies training these people to be dishonest. You should be aware when YOUR loss prevention email looks like a FRAUD itself, that can be a problem with most consumers. You should educate consumers in your email and on your PureTalk page that you are in fact one and the same.

I have not been very happy with PureTalk. It took a few calls to PureTalk to even get set up, and after I had been disconnected from my old carrier and started with PureTalk, I had to call and ask how to set up voicemail. After I thought everything was going smoothly, I vacationed in Colorado and lost all service for the three days I was there.

Moved all four of our lines from AT&T to PureTalk to reduce monthly costs. It took hours and hours on the phone with Customer Service and 7-10 days for one phone to work. It was exasperating! We now have another phone with no service. We called customer service. The first representative was focused on what was happening around her and did not have the time nor the inclination to listen to the problem.
The second technical representative was rude and uncaring. She did not listen either. She advised she would submit a ticket and someone would contact me in 24-48 hours. I requested to speak with a supervisor and was advised none was available, but a supervisor would call me back. I asked how long it would take to get a callback. The answer was I do not know. That was at 12:30 pm today. I am still waiting for a return call. The phone is still not working. I would really like to continue supporting the military, but I need my phone to work and technical assistance that actually helps. Maybe I should call the Marines. Oh wait, I cannot call anyone!

I switched to PureTalk as I liked the flat rate and tired of the big carriers. I'm a Ben Shapiro fan and wanted to give this vet owned company a shot. But, the service was a world class hassle when traveling internationally; the 'packets' you buy to use overseas burn quickly and getting the service to work was a tech challenge. They don't have an app, so it's difficult to track usage and logging in each time to see how much data remains is multi-step and slow. God forbid you hit your data usage for the month. Getting more data when you aren't around Wi-Fi is a challenge. I'm going back to a main carrier and will just pay the few dollars more for a better service. I will say, the customer service folks are very nice and they are a joy to work with. It's just unfortunate that they are a few clicks away from being truly competitive.

Several years ago, I was getting fed up with a major cell phone service provider that rhymes with "horizon." Costs and fees kept rising, while service was the same as my buddies with other phone carriers, AND, I did not like it they were using my money for social topics I was adamantly opposed to. I heard about PureTalk, learned what projects they sponsored and the fact that my service would be equal to or better than my other carrier, and more than half the cost. I decided to switch carriers, keeping my same phone number, and I have not regretted making the move to PureTalk. I believe that any reasonable and rational person would do the same. Why pay for social programs you don't like/support, and all that advertising? Made sense to switch.
I have saved quite a bit annually, and heaped those savings by cutting my cable, also. Don't just take my word for it. Investigate PureTalk and compare it to your own carrier.

Hello, Orson! We're here to help! Here are some steps you can take to address common concerns with your phone's battery and voicemail.
If your phone's battery is draining quickly, try these tips to extend its life:1. The Battery Saver feature can significantly reduce power consumption. You'll usually find it in Settings > Battery > Battery Saver.
2. High temperatures can cause your battery to drain faster. Avoid leaving your phone in direct sunlight or hot environments.
3. Ensure your phone is running the latest software. Updates often include optimizations that improve battery performance.
4. Many apps continue to use power even when you're not actively using them. Check your settings to limit background activity for apps that aren't essential.
You can often resolve voicemail issues by resetting it through your PureTalk online portal. Simply log in at https://www.puretalk.com/account/login and select the Plan tab. For visual voicemail, please contact our Customer Service department. You can dial 611 directly from your PureTalk phone or call us at 1-877-820-7873.

I was finally able to get my service changed from Pure Talk to **. I was having nothing but problems and found their customer service to be extremely poor. I expected the switch to take place Wednesday morning but they said Pure Talk had a "Port" delay and it would switch around 6 - 7 pm. It didn't happen so the next morning I spoke with someone at Pure Talk but was giving a lot of BS and told to be patient. I called again this morning (Friday) and was given the same garbage. After 20 minutes of getting nowhere I called ** and they got it switched in about 10 minutes.

AT&T plan will provide you with a high speed top of the tier BAND, while a $20/mo plan will get you the most congested and low power BAND prone to leaving these users disapointed with poor service during peak daily traffic, but if you don't use internet and occasionally make calls, a cheap plan like these will suffice.

For this reason, we are looking for a new carrier. Wish I would have known this before switching.

Worst customer service I have ever encountered. Left on hold for almost 50min and then the call drooped., Customer service got my order wrong and I had to pay for a plan I did not order. The customer service agents sent me to the wrong location to correct my account. After I spoke to the 7th agent, he identified that there had been some customer interaction but there was not enough information on the part of the previous customer service agent to credit my account and therefore I had to pay for the plan I did not sign up for.

PureTalk is completely incompetent. I called two weeks ago to ask if I could add my son to our plan by purchasing an Apple Watch for him. For those that don't know, Apple has the option to set up a watch for a child who does not have a phone so they can get their own phone number, call their parent and others as needed, but the parent still has full control on who is able to contact the child, content the child is exposed to, etc. I was told that yes, I could purchase an Apple Watch and set it up for my son through PureTalk's network this call took about 30 minutes, not bad, but keep reading.
I purchased an Apple Watch from PureTalk's website. When I called to set it up, the person I talked to was very confused and did not know that Apple Watches could be set up for children and have a separate number. She acted like I was an idiot. It took me guiding her to the Apple website and about an hour of hold time before she understood that I did know what I was talking about, only to be told that PureTalk can not offer this service, even though I called to verify before purchase and was told that they do. (If you're interested, search "Apple Watch for Kids" and scroll to the bottom of the Apple website. There is a list of carriers who do allow you to set up an Apple Watch this way for your kids, PureTalk is NOT one of them.)
I asked my husband if he would like to keep the watch rather than me having to go through the hassle of returning it, he said yes. It did not pair correctly with his iPhone (also purchased through PureTalk prior to all this), and though I paid for the $10 plan TWICE it still would not connect. I did get a refund after calling (and spending another 20-30 minutes on the phone) and was assured the cell service on the watch would start to work soon. Spoiler alert: it did not.
The next day I spent TWO HOURS on the phone with tech support to get the watch to work, I got charged and (hopefully) refunded more times than I can count for the $10/month service plan. It finally started working (the guy in tech support was very helpful and patient, so I can't say anything negative about him, it's just their crappy system that wasn't working).
Four days later, I received an email saying that I had an order out for delivery from PureTalk. I thought it might be a fluke in the system and didn't expect to receive anything... until FedEx showed up with another Apple Watch. I am not dishonest, so I called them to let them know what was going on (my first mistake, good deeds never go unpunished, or so I've heard). First, they said they had charged me twice because I ordered 2 watches, but I told them my bank statement only had one charge. Then they couldn't find anything and were confused. Then I got hung up on after about 30 minutes. So I called back and talked to someone else.
After another hour they said that I set up the wrong Apple Watch to my husband's phone. The one I received second was the correct one, and I had to set it up AGAIN. My husband wasn't home, so I couldn't do it. At this point, I'm tired of all of this so asked if I could just keep the watch at a discount due to all the trouble and the fact that it was their mistake, but was told no. If I want to keep it, I have to pay full price. Keep in mind, at this point, my husband has been wearing the "wrong" watch for a week now. The one he has been wearing (and sweating in... gross) is the one they want me to send back. I'm sure they will sell it as "new" because they have no options for used ones, but it's not new. So if you buy an Apple Watch from them, you can pay full price for my husband's sweaty used one, fully believing it's brand new, I guess. I 100% could have just not said a word, kept the watch and they would have never known. But that's wrong.
So let's recap. At this point in the game I have spent a total of almost 6 hours on the phone with PureTalk about this stupid Apple Watch that I ordered from them, that wouldn't work for the original purpose I was told it would, then was difficult to get to work with their system on two devices purchased from them, then they messed up, sent me two and I have to spend probably another 2 hours on the phone with them to get the other one set up, not to mention I have to spend the time, energy, and car gas to take the one my husband has been wearing for a week to a drop off location or they'll charge me for it, even though they obviously didn't miss it too much and didn't even know until I told them.
I didn't ask for it for free (though I totally could have had it for free) I just asked if they would let me buy it at a discount due to all of the hassle they have caused, (about $50 off is all and I'd be giving them $10 more a month with a plan!) but no. I'm looking at other providers; this is ridiculous. Yep PureTalk, you lost a customer you've had for over 5 years, who never missed a payment for $50.

I moved to PureTalk because it isn't some giant left-wing corporation. They also let me speak to a live human faster than most. They also hire and support veterans. Those are the pluses; here are the minuses: They partner with AT&T for coverage. I left AT&T for Verizon because AT&T's coverage in my area is usually horrible, while Verizon's was great. Now I'm back to horrible. Voice is usually fine, but data coverage can be effectively zero, e.g. last week when it didn't work at all for the ENTIRE week. They claim to offer VisualVoicemail, but if you dig, you realize that's only guaranteed to work on an iPhone; Android users' mileage may vary. My dad and I are among the variances. It absolutely doesn't work, and I've called twice about it. Tech support confirmed we're just out of luck.
They don't offer rollover data. C'mon! Two weeks ago, I noticed I was getting close to my data limit, so went on the website to buy another Gigabyte. My money is missing from my bank account, but I never got an emailed or texted receipt, and don't see any history of my purchase reflected on their website. I was close to the end of the billing cycle, though, and already they DON'T ROLLOVER DATA, so I didn't bother contacting the company. Still, as far as I'm concerned, PureTalk owes me $10.
They don't combine all data into one. This is another reason I left AT&T for Verizon - AT&T distinguishes between hotspot data and any other kind. So does PureTalk. WHY? Data is data, and it shouldn't make any difference to nor be any business of my carrier how I want to use it. Ultimately, I go back to the primary positive - PureTalk isn't a left-wing, America-hating company, and I genuinely WANT them to succeed. But there is a LOT of room for improvement.

The data speed and amount that I can send increased tremendously and the intermittent text issues went away. Highly recommend PureTalk. I have not had any issues with losing service or dropping data. Our previous carrier had very low limits on how much data we could transfer at one time.

We Appreciate the price, but Disappointed in the weak signal at my hunting cabin in north Arkansas (Sharp County). Often no service there inside my cabin and must go outside to get a very weak signal. Overall, happy we switched. I would recommend Pure Talk if anyone is considering making a change.

PureTalk has proven reliable in my rural area. While the bigger carriers work great in cities, coverage is often not good in non-urban places. My experience with customer service is that the representatives are helpful, friendly, and patient. My only quibble is that it’s not easy to update payment information, mainly because not even the customer can view the payment information on file. That’s great for security but not so great if you choose to not give your card a nickname when you first sign up. However, a friendly and helpful customer service rep helped me with that issue. My experience has been that the representatives are all friendly, helpful, and patient.
Hi, Jo-Ellen! We're thrilled to hear you're receiving great coverage, even in rural areas!

Went from Mint Mobile to Pure Talk hoping to get better service. Definitely not better and actually worse. Once the phone is paid off, I plan to switch to a major carrier. Even simple Google searches take forever. This seems to happen no matter where I am. To make it worse, when I am in a major part of town, I still have no internet access or such slow service that it is practically non-existent.

Great rates. I have multiple different lines and one that needs to shut off and then be started again later. This works well with PureTalk, but don't know of any other service that does it as well as they do. Have assisted other relatives to switch to PureTalk to save them money. They are happy with the service as well.

I bought this phone from you and have had nothing but trouble since. The person I was working with a Pure Talk told me I would be getting a new phone. Weeks later, called to find out why I had not received a new phone. I found out a Manager had cancelled it, and did not call me and tell me why. A sign of very good customer management. I will not at this time recommend Pure Talk to my worst enemy.

I like the way Puretalk works for me and it costs much less and I trust the company more than I did Verizon. I've had no troubles with the companies service and I have the same amount of coverage that I did from my previous company. I recommend this company to everybody that I talk to. I tell them what a good service I get and the amount that it cost me is so much less than what I've been paying before.

I sent a registered letter to you regarding the very bad experience I had with PureTalk, but have gotten no response. The service from your technicians was excellent but the service from management was very poor. If you are interested in knowing the problem I am happy to forward a copy of my letter to you. Thank you.

We live in rural southeast NE. I can only maintain 1 bar of internet reception in my home with Pure Talk - often with a yellow dot above the 1 bar. I am surprised I don't drop more calls than I do. I have to be very careful how I hold my phone when I talk. I am considering returning to Verizon - ONLY because of my low internet reception.
