These Goldilocks $10/month phone plans are almost too good to be true

Lately, we’ve been seeing more and more promotions from prepaid wireless carriers, offering impressive discounts on some of its best plans. This is a great thing if you’ve been looking to try a new carrier, or are looking to make a switch. With that said, if you’re someone that doesn’t use a lot of data, but does manage to make a lot of calls and send lots of texts, we think this new promotion from Ultra Mobile is going to be right up your alley.

The perfect plan if talk and text are your main priorities

Ultra Mobile is now offering a new plan during its summer promotion that costs just $10/month. You can purchase 3, 6, or even 12-month packages from the carrier, providing access to unlimited talk and text, along with 4GB of 4G/5G data. Now, for the most part, that’s plenty at this price, but the carrier manages to add in a few perks to sweeten the deal.

You also get unlimited talk to over 90 international locations, unlimited talk and text to Mexico, and global texting as well. If your location is not supported by the carrier under the plan, you’ll still be able to call, but you will need to purchase INTL Call Credit from the carrier to proceed. The good news is that Ultra Mobile provides $1.50 worth of INTL Call Credit for free each month.

The plan will also include hotspot coverage, Wi-Fi calling, and you’ll have your choice of picking up a physical SIM or eSIM. While you can go with a new number, Ultra Mobile also provides the ability to port in your number from your existing carrier as well. As stated before, users will need to select the length of service that they are looking for, with 3, 6, and 12-month packages.

Payment will be required in advance for these plans, which means you’ll need to pay $30, $60, or $120 for the plans available. For the most part, you can’t go wrong here, since Ultra Mobile utilizes the T-Mobile network, providing excellent coverage and speed. However, you will want to be aware that once your initial term is over, prices will jump up.

As far as what you can expect to pay after the promotional period, the 3-month plan climbs to $16/month, the 6-month plan rises to $15/month, and the 12-month plan costs $13/month. You’re still getting a pretty good deal at these prices, but it’s just something to be aware of since the prices will change at the end of the promotional period.
