Complete List of AT&T Wireless MVNOs

If you’re thinking of leaving AT&T’s prices behind but still like its coverage, then check out these alternative carriers.

We’ve compiled the complete AT&T Wireless MVNO list so that you don’t have to go searching all around the web for a great wireless deal. A mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) is an “alternative carrier” that leases network coverage from one of the large carriers (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon). Much of the time, these carriers can offer cheaper service by targeting smaller markets or removing features that many people won’t need.

Thanks to the size and quality of AT&T’s 3G and LTE network as well as its support for most unlocked phones, AT&T is an easy choice for an MVNO. Still, many of the best MVNOs use one of the other networks, or even multiple networks, and may be a better fit for you.

You need to make sure that your phone has the following GSM bands to work with an AT&T-based MVNO. Alternatively, you can check your IMEI on the website of most of these carriers.

• 3G: 850, 1900Mhz
• LTE: AWS, 700, 850, 1900Mhz
• 5G: n5, n260

Here are the MVNOs powered by AT&T.

Airvoice Wireless

Starting as low as $5 for five days of service, Airvoice is a highly flexible MVNO. With Airvoice, you can pay as you go or buy a month of service, with high-speed LTE service in data packages that fit pretty much any user’s needs.

With unlimited service coming in at $63 with autopay for 30 days of service, it’s not the best value for heavy users, but thanks to the wide array of plans, there’s something that will work for everyone on this carrier.

Altice Mobile

If you are an Optimum or Suddenlink customer, Altice Mobile might be worth considering. For those customers, an unlimited plan is just $20 per month per line with autopay. The price goes up to $30 per month if you are just looking for mobile service alone.

These prices are a bargain, but it’s worth keeping in mind that this carrier makes use of both Sprint and AT&T and will likely default to a Sprint connection if available. Still, if you are covered by Altice’s service, it can be a good way to save some money on phone service.

Black Wireless

Black Wireless is an MVNO that simply aims to save you money. It offers unlimited monthly data plans, which give you an allotment of 4G LTE data, and then you get unlimited data at 2G speeds with some plans.

$15/month gets you 200 minutes or texts (or a combination of both), 200 international minutes with calling to landlines in a wide range of countries, and 500MB of 4G LTE data, with unlimited 2G data at 128Kbps.

$30/month gets you 5GB of 4G LTE with unlimited 2G data, unlimited talk, and text, and unlimited international calling. All of these plans are also available at a discount if you buy six or twelve months at once.

Consumer Cellular

Consumer Cellular is relatively run-of-the-mill when it comes to MVNOs: it aims to save you money on your monthly phone bill. However, it’s been recognized twice by J.D. Power and Associates for its excellent customer service. You can also score a 5% discount if you are an AARP member.

You can build your own plan with one to three lines, choosing from 250 minutes or unlimited, as well as data in 500MB, 3GB, 10GB, 15GB, and unlimited plans depending on your needs. There’s also the option of skipping texting and data altogether if you want a plan that keeps things simple.

Cricket Wireless

Cricket Wireless is pretty much the biggest player in terms of MVNOs that use AT&T’s network. It has excellent plans, and that’s due in no small part to the fact that it’s owned by AT&T. Cricket is one of the only prepaid carriers to support 5G on its data-only plans and top unlimited plan.

Plans start at $30/month for 2GB of 4G LTE and unlimited calling and texting. $40/month gets you 5GB of 4G LTE or unlimited high speed with the Unlimited BYOD plan. Finally, there are the two standard unlimited plans for $55 and $60, with the latter offering faster download speeds and 15GB of hotspot data.

Net10, owned by TracFone, uses all of the Big Four’s towers to help with coverage, which means you get solid coverage for a little less than you’d spend going with one of the biggies. The nice thing is that, because Net10 uses everyone, you get to bring pretty much any phone onto the network.

All smartphone plans come with unlimited talk, text, and 2G data. $20/month gets you 2GB of 4G LTE, with more plans available at 5GB, 10GB, 30GB, 40GB, and even 50GB.
