Ting offers a good selection of plans to choose from.
The $10 Ting Flex plan is a great option for low-data users. You pay $10 per month for unlimited talk and text, and then just $5 per GB used.
What’s great is you can share the data usage across multiple lines. So a family of four that only uses a total of 2GB per month would end up paying just $12.50 per line.
The rest of Ting’s plans are classic data-bucket plans. You get a set amount of high-speed data each month.
After you use up your high speed data, your data speeds slowed to 2G speeds, or about 128Kbps. There are no data overages for Ting’s data-bucket plans.

If you get one of Ting’s data-bucket plans, then each line will get its own separate high-speed data allotment.

Ting currently uses the T-Mobile and Verizon networks to provide coverage. You choose to use either the T-Mobile or the Verizon network when you first sign up for service. It is possible to have multiple lines that use different networks under one Ting account.
Ting’s parent company, Dish, also recently signed an agreement with AT&T. So it may be possible to see Ting plans operating on the AT&T network before the end of the year.
T-Mobile’s LTE bands are 2, 4, 12, 25, 26, 41, 66, and 71. T-Mobile’s 5G bands are n41, n71, n260, and n261.
Verizon’s LTE bands are 2, 4, 5, 13, 46, 48, and 66. Verizon’s 5G bands are n260 and n261.
AT&T’s LTE bands are 2, 4, 5, 12, 14, 17, 29, 30, and 66. AT&T’s 5G bands are n5 and n260.
LTE and 5G bands marked in bold are the primary bands that the networks use to provide coverage.
Other non-bolded LTE and 5G bands are typically used to provide supplemental coverage.
The more LTE and 5G bands your phone has for a particular network, the better coverage and faster speeds you will get on that network.
