No it runs off Verizon towers but it doesn't make a difference the phone is crap.

Note its for GPS, not cell phone. It has nothing to do with cell phone reception. For that you need ATT 3G micro cell tower. This simply hooks on to the GPS section of that Tower so emergency people can locate your house.

Wherever tmobile or metro pcs towers are, you will get reception.Simple mobile runs off of these towers.

Check with the staff at the walmart cell phone dept. I believe they piggyback on the AT&T; towers but not sure it that's country wide. I think it also depends on the make of phone you have. My LG works very well most everywhere I've traveled this year.

I use my phone with Pageplus which runs off of the Verizon towers. Pageplus is no contract pay monthly.

We have 2 of them and use the 30 dollar plan. (This phone runs on Verizon towers if that makes any difference to you).

This phone is said to be able to run on T-Mobile, AT&T, Straight talk, Family mobile, simple mobile etc. Because it's a GSM phone, It wouldn't be able to run with Sprint or Verizon towers, because they run on a different frequency, WCDMA. However if I heard correctly Straight talk uses Roaming on the network towers, so you will be able to utilize both AT&T and T-Mobile Towers. But be aware the issue with the Frequency band under my review.

I've got it on the ATT work, using a GO pay as you go phone. It will work on ATT towers but I'm not sure about T mobile. You could try it. h20 has the lowest pay as you go plan.

Yes, it does work AT&T. I have AT&T now and so far I haven't had any problems - however, when you get away from an AT&T coverage area it is far easier to lose your signal. If you do a lot of traveling this phone may not be for you.

No. The base requires electricity. If power is out, these phones will not work.

I live in a remote area where reception is spotty at best (verizon). ATT owns most of the towers and kicked verizon out so no phones work but mine--I can call from impossible places.

Yes- the phone works with other SIM cards. I use Straight Talk,but it runs off of AT&T; towers.As long as the provider has service in your area, you should be good to go!

I bought the phone 2 years ago. At the time I was getting ready to retire from the US to Thailand. I needed an unlocked phone, that uses sim cards and ran on the GSM system. At that time AT&T; ran on CDMA. So I had to switch to T MOBILE (GSM) Not sure, but I think those 2 companies merged. That might have changed things there. Please check in an AT&T; store to get the right answer. Since I am here in Thailand I am no longer "in the know". Hope that helps.

The units are only 2G. They run off T-Mobile's 2G network and are already supplied with SIM cards inside the units.

In short, no. This phone uses a sim card and the GSM network (T-mobile-AT&T;).

The frequency it runs off of isn't the same as some phone companies, so it doesn't work. You can check what the company runs off of for 3G online.
