eBay Partners with Red Pocket Mobile to Pair a Low-Cost Wireless Plan with Every Phone Sold:

“Red Pocket Mobile is the natural partner for us to launch our add-on wireless plan,” said David Grim, Category Manager at eBay. “Because Red Pocket works on all of America’s major networks, their service can apply to virtually all of the millions of phones sold on eBay.”

[...] Red Pocket’s most popular plan, by contrast, is just $30 per month. That plan provides 5GB of LTE data plus unlimited data at slower speeds, along with unlimited talk, text, and international calling to over 70 countries.

[...] For the occasional user, Red Pocket’s Basic Plan on eBay provides 100 minutes, 100 texts and 500MB of LTE data on any major network for just $5 per month.

Red Pocket has already sold thousands of its Bring Your Own Phone starter kits on eBay, where customers rate Red Pocket’s service 4.9 out of 5 stars. Red Pocket's sky-high customer rating is an extraordinary achievement in an industry that leaves most consumers frustrated with their provider.

    oh mon dieu debile - I don't get it. Are you too stupid to realize that all your EU countries together are about the size of the US, and some of those are shitholes like poland and romania and serbia, where salaries are literally 20 times less than in the US? Fuck, France pays about half of what the US does - you ain't making $150/hr as a network engineer, lemmetellya. Guess what - we don't charge people extra to call from a different state either. My personal US plan, is $30/month. That's 1GB then unlimited 2G, unlimited talk/text, and for an extra $5/month, free roaming - to all your "countries" - as well as to most of "not your countries." Your plan, one that only works in all Our states, US, you can get for $10-30 per month, depending on carrier.

    You have a shittier hence cheaper plan, and you're saying it's great because you can use your phone for free in a "country" 200km away? Now, I've been to every country in the EU, and lived in several for Years. Did you know that in Ukraine, I can get unlimited internet, and about 100 minutes +unlimited text for about EUR3/month? That plan works in Russia too for an extra 2EUR per month. The russkies got you beat fucktard. mojet zatkneshsya tupitsa? vzroslye razgovarivaut.
