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.

Cheap service with poor coverage and lousy customer service
Stay away – No customer service.
Hi I have a iPhone 5 I live in a place that does get service I’m curious to if H2O wireless has wifi calling I’m on a per pay plan?
Joe, does H2O allow Wifi Calling? FWIW, I have an unlocked Samsung S8 (like factory unlocked, bought from samsung.com)
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.
