then your phone will only use 2, 4, and 7. meaning don't go to frequency 66 only areas if you want to be able to connect to the network 100%
Speakout Wireless being discontinued?
- Thread starter Iwandaboobis
- Start date
Received some paperwork from a 7 Eleven stpre that says Speakout will cpontinue service, but the last date to port over to a 4g sim was September 20. After that date (nobody told me this before that date) service will begin to be affected.
I'm not sure if the network that speakout partners with will accept your phone brand.
No, it won't. Looks like I'll pic up the phone Speakout has on offer - TCL 502.

Here's a simple phone compatibility test to see the types of mobile networks your phone is capable of🤔
Anything not listed you can use your phone's IMEI number to determine compatibility. Dial *#06# to display your phone’s IMEI number.

It's just a phone check for 4G compatibility for any network; it just shows the phones capabilities and if your phone has 4G that's all
I've given up on Speakout. They don't want to be in the business, I think, so I'll help them achieve that. They won't respond to emails, NEVER answer their phone help lines, keep directing customers to Lucky, so why bother?
I've just got a Chatr one year plan and new phone. All in, it was $200, but I shouldn't have any new phone expenses for a year.

And the US with its NSA ,and its Cyber security agency dosen't have back doors into phones?national security. some brands especially china need all electronic devices to have a backdoor built into it so that everything can go back to china and hence you are losing privacy. it's in the laws. we are now in the new era of war.
The old non-smart phone options are being phased out, so governments can spy.....
the point is china can take a look at your data without court subpoena. Others cannot. so not everyone is protected in china in terms of prosecution.
spy is another say. everything single country is the same on this topic.
it works with other networks doesn't mean it will work with 7-11 speakout. each network is different on which brands of phones are allowed to be used on its network.
This is what I ended up doing. Bought the TCL phone from Chatr and got the $100 prepaid, and set up a reminder in the calendar before the year is up. Originally wanted to bring my speakout number to Chatr but they needed my speakout pin to port the number.
Fizz didn't need my 7-11 pin to port my number. I just got a text on my old SIM to confirm porting, and that was more than a month ago.
Whatever you chose it's really the end of pay-as-you-go, now it's monthly plan this yearly plan that. We also need data now like for AsianFever using telegram only to communicate🤷♂️
Good luck everybody in dealing with this Speakout fiasco🤦♂️

I hate that telegram only shit. What is the point? A simple phone number is still the easiest way to connect.
