so I've been using ting or a little over a month now I decided I would share a
video about it they are a prepaid service they do charge you monthly but
it's it's still a pay-as-you-go they used to only offer the service on CDMA s
with sprint phones and they've opened up the market now and they allow GSM phones
so I finally got on board because I use GSM phones that I don't use sprint
anymore so you go on our website and you order the SIM card and I will definitely
provide the link for that down in the description the shipping for this came
for me there's two days so ridiculously fast you get this SIM card and this is
an unlocked Moto G and this is what I was using it with first but I've since
purchased a lg g3 and I use it on the lg g3 but that's recording the video so
basically what you want to do is when you get the card in the mail you can as
you can see you can use it with the old-style sim or it just pops out and
you can use the micro SIM so we'll take it and I'll put it into the phone and
this is the world phone for the Moto G use 1034
okay
and the LG g3 is the AT&T version that is before I was using this on t-mobile
and I didn't really get very good service inside the house my walls are
cement I shall see you soon with ting I actually get ridiculous service in here
full bars pretty much everywhere in my house once he has that spooning up let
me tell you about their their plans so what I do is I sign up for the minimum
because what they do is if you use you know between 1 and 100 minutes you get
charged three dollars if you go over and you accuse between 101 and 500 you are
charged nine dollars and I've heard that the reverse is true so saying you sign
up for a thousand to two thousand minutes and you only use five hundred
they'll charge you for this the first month from what I understand but then
you'll get credited back to the next month you listen sent to the price that
you actually use so they don't overcharge you you're never overcharged
and one of the really really cool things about ting is that you can actually go
in and set it up to where say you only want to use between 101 and 500
megabytes of data you can actually have it either send you a message when you
reach a certain number and they recommend if you want it to stop at 500
to have the alert set for 475 so they've got enough time to alert you before you
go and you can have it send you the message or like I said turn off the data
altogether so you definitely don't go over what you need and that's perfect
for me because I am a college student I'm working with a budget and I can't
really afford to go over X amount so there's that and you can have several
devices each device the first device is six bucks and each extra device is six
dollars after that and you guys just shared whatever minutes is used that's
what you pay for so and I'll provide the link to all that in the description all
right so now the phone is back if as you can see have full bars of service which
is really awesome with the four data rates I've only got 3G on this side but
when I use the LG g3 I actually got 4G LTE speeds inside buildings all kinds of
things like that it's been it's been really great I've been I've had no
complaints about the service and one of the things when you first get the phone
you'll have to go in and set up your APN manually and when you go and activate
your device on the service - to provide you that that would be the next page
they take you to but I'll show you what my settings are and my dad is off
because I'm on Wi-Fi you see us on t-mobile before but you have to set up
the ting down and you actually have to set up the ups that's all the MMS I
don't use Emma so let's actually change that so you
guys have the right information okay so first with the data settings you
have to put the name s ting data the APN as a whole sale you can leave these
other places blank the MCC needs to be 310 the MNC needs to be two six feet and
protocol ipv6 as well as the roaming protocol and that is it you just hit the
menu and you hit save then you go and you add another one by hitting the plus
sign call it nickname at ting MMS at the APNs wholesale again again you can avoid
most of this the mmm SC is this long string
I actually just copied and pasted it so that's definitely correct
MCCS 310 MNCs 260 I'm sorry about this the IPV
protocol has to be high pv6 okay and then again you get the menu save and you
only have to select ting data and then s will automatically be selected when
you're receiving or sending in the minutes another really cool feature
about ting is that they give you a referral codes and unfortunately mine's
not been used yet so I did use somebody else's to sign up so I did get a a $25
credit and that was applied to my account I had to call them because I
wanted to apply it right away and I wasn't seeing it very quick that they
answered the phone within two rings and the person was really nice and I've
heard really good things about that customer service and I I can attest to
that as well so I will provide my referral link in the description if you
want to help me out that would be really cool that if you decide that you want to
go with this service you click that link so both of us can get 25 and then you
can share your link and other people will hopefully click that too so that is
my review of ting hope you like it if you have any
questions just ask me a question I'll do my best to answer hit the like button if
you liked it and have a great day
