It's not as bad as everyone says. Where else can you get free data and phone. What the hell do you people want for free. It's better then no phone. Do you disagree. Come on now.

My keypad was no longer working, so I had to get a new phone. I had some things on my old phone that I needed for legal purposes. I had to find out how to download that information, so I called customer service. They didn't know how, but told me that I could have extended time to keep the phone and to call them with the tracking number as soon as I mailed it. On 12/18/2018, they turned off my service even though I was told that I could have extra time to get the information off the old phone. On 12/20/2019, I mailed the phone and called Assurance to tell them that I had mailed it and what the tracking number was. This time I was told that they had to wait until they received the phone before they could restore the service. The phone was received on 12/26/2018, so I had a neighbor call and was told that it would take at least 24 hours to activate my service. Next, I had a friend call, and this time they said that they needed 24 -48 hrs. To process it, but to keep checking my phone to see if it was turned on. All this time, I had been sick with the flu and unable to get medical help, because this phone is my only means of communication. It is now 12/28/2018 and the service was finally turned on, however I cannot set it up. I don't know what network this phone uses and I don't have any information from my old phone that will help with this.
They said this keyboard would be easier for me to use since the keys were larger. Not so. This is exactly the same keyboard I had that I have to use a stylist on to press one key. At this point, I still can't use my phone and think I will look for another company.

I signed up for assurance wireless in March with their representatives under the tent and used the free phone I received all the time before they ended service on July 7 for no reason! I was given no warning, it was just gone. So I called and gave the information they needed to review the case and they told me there was a different name under the phone number I was issued despite me having used it since March and receiving no calls or texts from anyone asking for someone else. I even entered the phone number into their website and their site didn't even recognize it! I tried calling the number and no one answered. Then they had the nerve to tell me I wasn't eligible to sign up for them but I was eligible in March? So basically they cut off my service, told me my name I gave them wasn't on the account but someone else's only for me to call the number and no answer whatsoever from this alleged person! So either they're lying or something else is up. Good thing the phone was free and I didn't pay a dime or else I'd sue somehow! The 1 star is the result of all of this, otherwise the phone was fine and so was the service, but since this happened automatic 1 star!

No customer service! Staff gives you wrong information every time you speak to them. It's very frustrating when you speak to an agent & she has no idea what she's telling you.
