Free Cell Phone Service: Why Assurance Wireless is one of the Top Choices for Lifeline
What's not to like about free phone service? All on the T-Mobile network!
We know that may sound too good to be true. But it's real! In conjunction with a government benefit program called the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), Assurance Wireless is offering eligible households free cell phone service—including free data—with:
- No bills
- No long-term contract
- No activation fees
Assurance Wireless is a leading provider of Lifeline service, and we offer eligible customers free talk, text, and data. As an added benefit, you also receive access to free scam protection tools to help identify and stop scammers from calling you.
Fortunately, staying connected to the people who matter most is free to those who qualify for Lifeline. Use your service to stay in touch with your family and friends, healthcare providers, employer, or childcare providers, at home or on the go.
How Assurance Wireless Can Help
We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to stay connected. The Assurance Wireless monthly plan, on the T-Mobile network, offers:
- Unlimited text
- 3,000 Talk Minutes*
- 4.5GB Data
- * Data and Talk minutes may vary by state (Talk Minutes: TX–Unlimited, UT/NE–3,400, WI–3,150, CA Data 6GB )
* Data and Talk minutes may vary by state (Talk Minutes: TX–Unlimited, UT–1400, WI–1150. CA Data 6.GB )
Plus, a free smartphone (one time only for new customers)
During congestion, Assurance Wireless customers may notice lower speeds than T-Mobile customers due to data prioritization, and further reduction if using >35GB/mo.

Assurance Wireless is a provider of California LifeLine, a government assistance program. Offer available for eligible CA customers only & is non-transferable. Discounts provided by the California & federal Lifeline programs are limited to one per household (landline or wireless). A household is defined as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address & share income & expenses. Consumers who willfully make false statements in order to obtain the benefit can be punished by fine or imprisonment or can be barred from the program. Unlike a traditional wireline phone, a wireless handset may be removed from the home. By removing a wireless cell phone from a residence that does not have other phone services, residents may not have a way to make 911 calls during an emergency. Also, wireless service may experience interruptions due to weather conditions, terrain or gaps in service coverage.
