      Applied for service on line, first by checking the **** number on their website to make sure our phones were compatable with their service. The web site indicated both phones were compatable. I than ordered two SIM cards and paid $5.00 for shipping. Once the cards arrived I contact Consumer Cellular and spoke to a technician and was instructed to put SIM card into one of the two phones and then he proceeded to attempt to connect phone to their system. For close to an hour he attempted to activate the phone witout success and finally determined our phones were not compatable and the information on their web site was not always accurate. We were then left with a phone with no service because the number had been ported over to Consumer Cellular from our previous provider. The next day we obtained new phones and service from a different carrier and subsequently received a BILL from Consumer Cellular for service. Contacted them again and they cancelled the bill but did not offer a refund on the shipping expense. Cautionary tale, don't trust their web site.

      My order was processed fast. I have been with Consumer Cellular for about a year and the service is great. Both the cell service as well as customer service. I would and have recommended them already.

      Delivery and data transfer went well. Although I am 68 years old, not very computer or iPhone savvy, I was able to use the new phone with the data from my old phone.

      The customer service team was top notch. Unfortunately I have a contract with another carrier. They went above and beyond to help get me set up. For now Im going to stay with my carrier.

      Each time I have talked to customer service I have talked to a person who speaks English not somebody from ****** or Asian. It means a lot to us elderly folks who dont hear so well.
