Hi Brian. This works through your present wireless internet service provider in the home where the thermostat is located. The phone app is just a nice way to link into that. We use it to turn AC on from San Diego when headed to Palm Springs.

In the usa, T-Mobile still(05.2015) offers a data plan where you pay $15 once for the SIM card, then you get 200MB/month for life FREE, no-contract, and you can buy data as you need it; 500MB/1 day $5; 1GB/1 week, $10; 3GB/30 days $30; 5GB/30 days $40; I believe I have the pricing correct. If you aren't a data hog, you can go all month of emailing with the Free 200MB, sweet. I have these in some 3G iPads and works awesome. I love T-Mobi and am kissing AT-T's A$$ goodbye.

Yes it is, that's what I have. Just drop in you sim, charge the phone up and connect to AT&T and you are ready to go. I must say though that I saw a lot of charges start to appear as if out of nowhere. No nig charges but small charges usually in the 1 to 2 dollar range. I would pick up my phone to make a call, swipe it on and there would be a message "The last transaction cost $x.xx." The thing was that I hadn't used the phone since my last call and I had already seen the msg about how much that call had cost me. I ended up putting my sim back in my Samsung dumb phone. However that isn't a problem with the phone. The phone worked great, good quality sound, beautiful display, easy to use and set up. All of those small unknown charges came from AT&T. I'm thinking about when my minutes run out of finding a better pay as you go service. I hope it's something compatible with my sim and the 917

No, you don't pay a monthly fee- I usually buy minutes for 3 months at a time and what I don't use roll over. It is possible to buy minutes for a whole year but I don't always use my phone very much so the 3 month deal works for me.

Yes, it is $30 a month thru Verizon, you have to take it to get the 4G card put in, or that is how I wanted mine to work, needed the hotspot for laptop to work also when not at home, we take both the laptop and tablet, I hope that answered your question.

We went with h2o wireless. It cost a penny for the sim card and then we charge $10 every 90 days. Texts are 5 cents each.

Its never paid upfront :( the only option is to find one that is both wifi+at&t; (Or another carrier) and then pay the monthly fee.

Yes. I pay $50/month no conyract through AT and y'know. For me its worth it, because I spend a lot of time deep in the Rockies. Most of my calls get made over WiFi since my phone carrier(not AT& y'know) never has signal. I love the speed, signal and all.

These phones (go phone) are no-contract, pay as you go phones. I choose to pay $100 per year. I seldom use my cell phone and often have money left to use before the end of the year (based on the purchase date). If you use your cell phone a lot, you might want to consider other options.

No, There are is no monthly fee. It is truly free when you activate the device it will offer you free 2.5 gb free but if you look closer it will say first month and the second option is 500mb of free data monthly for life. Use that one. after setup log in to your account and turn off "auto top of/auto refill" of data or when you get to 450mb of data they will charge to refill.

No, Net Ten's rate for this phone is $50 per month which allows unlimited phone & text min. This phone is very efficient., we have two of them.

I use "Ting". It is a non-contractual phone service that piggy backs on the sprint network and runs about $25 a month.

It is free to browse if you are strictly on your ISP WI FI network. initially I had to straighten this out with Tmobile. They haven't tried to charge since. Just make sure you Always launch using the browser, and not Tmobile (T) web2go

No monthly fees but if you buy a GPS you're better off buying one that has lifetime map updates included.
