I'm on Medical right now and can't afford $40/mo. on Metro PCS so I decided to try this free govt. phone (Safelink).

I find Safelink Wireless’ service helps to keep me in contact with my family and friends, as well as lets me check the news and keeps me informed on new and current events.

Safelink give its users extra data as well as monthly plan minutes due to coronavirus which is a plus in addition to affordable plans not covered by Lifeline service.

I became familiar with SAFELINK Wireless about 6 years ago. I was in a bind financially and my mother couldn't reach me most times when she called. (Due to me not able to pay bill).

I have had Safelink for almost 2 years. Transferring my phone number from another major unsubsidized carrier was tortuous to say the least - time-consuming for both myself and Safelink. Part of the problem was that I brought my own unlocked phone.
