Assurance Wireless Free No Contract Government Cell Phones

Assurance Wireless Lifeline program is among the biggest in the U.S. It currently operates in over 40 states and is continuously expanding further, reaching low-income people and giving them a chance to get federal telecommunication assistance. No contact-free government cell phones and smartphones from this company brought by Virgin Mobile come with one of the best Lifeline plans available today. Its primary advantage is a free unlimited text messaging every month within the no-cost program. Other Lifelines participating companies like Safelink or ReachOut do not offer this bonus at the moment. Besides this feature, Assurance Wireless plans come extra 250 free airtime minutes for the four months of all new subscriptions (1,000 bonus minutes in total!)http://freegovernmentsmartphones.com/assurance-wireless/

Once again, Assurance Wireless gives you a free government cell phone (a handset is sent to you by the company when you are approved), 250 minutes/month and unlimited texts + no annual contracts + nationwide Sprint network coverage (it’s excellent) + voice mail account + Caller ID + low international rates to more than 190 countries. This deal seems to be superior. When more minutes/texts/data needed, additional packages are available for purchase online or at retail locations (through the Assurance Wireless top-up cards). If you are up for it, check if Assurance Wireless coverage includes the state you reside in, and whether you meet the basic eligibility requirements to enroll the Assurance Wireless program.
