Tello charges state and county sales tax, and for the federal universal service fund.
Supported Phones And BYOD Devices
Tello does sell mobile phones, however, those that already have a phone are welcome to bring it to Tello, as long is it is out of contract and compatible with the Sprint or T-Mobile network. Phones must also support VoLTE HD voice calling. Most universally unlocked phones from Motorola and Samsung are also compatible.
Where To Buy Service Plans And SIM Cards
SIM cards and plans must be purchased directly from Tello. If you already have a Sprint SIM card, you can safely use that with Tello without having to purchase a new SIM card.

Phone Unlock Policy
Tello sells all of its phones unlocked, so there is no device unlock policy to worry about.
