Internet on the Go – USA

 In USA mobile internet services for a limited time without signing a contract have the common name “Internet on the Go“. We can choose the so-called “Go Phones”- a smartphone with a pre-paid subscription and limited amount of data to be used. The prices of such phones start at $ 45. if we exceed the transfer limit, we can refill it with cards of different capacity (prepaid internet cards). Cards we will buy for most Target or Walmart stores or at gas stations. The second option is to use your own smartphone and buy the so-called the Starter Kit. If your phone has no SIM-lock and is no older than a few years, there is a good chance that it will work in any network in the US.  You can check if your phone will be working abroad, on the Willmyphonework website or on the website of the operator you choose. Please note if the selected starter kit has a SIM card. If it don’t, you have to pay for it, depending on the operator, from a dozen to several dozen dollars. The cheapest you will buy it in any Walmart or BestBuy store. If you want someone to help you with the configuration of such a set in your smartphone, it is better to go to the store of the service provider. You will pay a little more, but you do not worry about the configuration and you are sure that your phone will work in the US. Current tariff plans can be found here: T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint.
