How UNREAL Mobile Plans Work
UNREAL Mobile is an MVNO that operates primarily on the AT&T network but may still offer plans on the T-Mobile network. The company was launched in early 2018 by FreedomPop. It was designed with the idea of being a more premium product that could still offer budget pricing. In 2019, Unreal Mobile along with the FreedomPop brand were purchased by Red Pocket Mobile.
The first major move Red Pocket Mobile made with the Unreal Mobile brand occurred in early 2020. The service was updated so that subscribers no longer needed to use VoIP for phone calls. All new Unreal Mobile subscribers got premium voice calling including VoLTE services over the underlying carrier’s cellular network. Subscribers were no longer required to download an app for phone calls and text messages.
UNREAL Mobile’s phone plans include unlimited everything, with data speeds reduced to 2G data speeds once the plan’s high speed data allotment gets used up.
When the brand first launched, all of UNREAL Mobile’s plans included a VPN, ad blocker, data saver, and data rollover. However, many of the features were later offered as premium paid add-ons. The VPN is used to encrypt and make your connection to the internet private. It protects your phone calls, text messages, and data from being accessed by unwanted eyes. The ad blocker is used to block ads from showing up on web pages and in some mobile applications. Data saver is likely used to compress and save data while you access the internet. Data rollover allows leftover data that a subscriber may have in their account at the end of a billing cycle to be carried over for usage in their next billing cycle. A maximum of 500MB of data could be rolled over each month. However, all of these features have since been eliminated.
In late spring, early summer 2023, Unreal Mobile rebranded with a new website, new plans, and a new logo. Plans were simplified with only two offerings. A $20/month 10GB “Black” plan and a $40/month 25GB “Gold” plan. Both plans require prepaying for service three months at a time.
