How Selectel Wireless Plans Work
Selectel Wireless initially launched in 2008 as a local exchange carrier that resold Verizon and CenturyLink landline service.  In 2013 the company began offering wireless service to its local landline customers and the first Selectel Wireless retail store opened in Fremont, Nebraska. Since then the business has expanded to have over 13 retail stores in Nebraska and Kansas and over 1,000 independent dealers nationwide. Selectel is currently an MVNO that operates on the Verizon network. A unique feature offered is that several phone plans include domestic voice roaming utilizing Verizon’s postpaid network roaming partners. It is one of the few if not only MVNO providers to offer the same type of voice roaming that Verizon’s postpaid customers get.

I have been using Selectel Wireless in northern Minnesota for over two years. I love it. I signed my daughter up for Selectel first while my contract with Verizon ran out and observed that her service was consistent with the service I had with Verizon so I felt confident about the switch. Service has always been dependable and I don’t envision ever going back to Verizon. Renewing service is quick and easy online and customer service is good. Earlier this year, Selectel raised the data limit on my plan for no additional charge to remain competitive with other services – further evidence that this is not some sideshow company.
I have been using Selectel Wireless service now for over 3 years, first on an Android, and now on an iPhone X. Service has been great. It is definitely a great way to get Verizon service at a fair price and without the contracts.
