How H2O Wireless Plans Work

H2O Wireless is an MVNO that operates on AT&T’s network and the company is one of several that are owned by Locus Telecommunications.

The MVNO launched service in 2005 as an independent provider.  In 2010 Locus Telecommunications was purchased by the KDDI Corporation which is a Fortune Global 500 company that generates billions of dollars in revenue annually.  KDDI is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan.

In January of 2019 it was announced that Locus Telecommunications and thus H2O Wireless was being sold to Telrite Holdings, INC.  Telrite Holdings, INC, also owns Pure TalkUSA.  At the time of its sale, Locus Telecommunications was said to have around one million subscribers.

Before you make a final purchasing decision, you may want to read some reviews of H2O Wireless which includes a summary of my experience with them when I was one of their customers.


Supported Phones And BYOD Devices

H2O Wireless allows customers to bring their own phones to the network as long as they are compatible with AT&T or unlocked and compatible with AT&T’s network.  Most T-Mobile phones are compatible as long as they have been unlocked.  The company also sells select phones with device financing options available for those that need it.  Universally unlocked phones from manufacturer’s such as Motorola and Samsung are compatible with the network.


Where To Buy Service Plans And SIM Cards

Plans can be purchased online and from several retailers such as Amazon often at a discount to the H2O Wireless website.

Cheap service with poor coverage and lousy customer service

Pros
Cheap. I use the word inexpensive when something is very affordable. Cheap means crappy.
CONS
Poor customer service. Poor cell reception.

Stay away – No customer service.

Pros
Decent prices. Consistent network service
CONS
Customer service is non existent. I have spent a year trying to get a phone that was returned removed from my account. I provided the proof of delivery and returned it with their RMA number. The phone was new and unopened. The website is showing a 90 month service commitment on a 24 month agreement. They haven't responded to my emails. If you get someone on the phone they say to use email. Steer Clear from this company if you need service. JAA

Horrible customer Service!! After trying for more than 6 days I’ve not been able to port the H2O no to another provider. Finally – had to get a new number with AT&T. What H2O is doing is an offence – they do not allow anyone to port out. Horrible service. If you do not want your phone to stop working on the middle of the highway, do not go to H2O. you will not know when their services will stop. Anyway – you will never be able to contact customer service.
