### 2/5 — Red Pocket Not Bad; App Slow As Molasses and 50% Unreliable.

*2026-08-18, version 4.8.1*

Update - 08/18/26 - Tried using the app to up my minutes.  It took a while just to get the current tally on the screen.  Once it did, I chose an option to add minutes.  3 times I tried - each time force quitting the app in between - after selecting ADD the app takes to a white screen where you wait and and wait and nothing happens.

I just went and ordered a new line with someone else.

Sorry RP.  I tried 3 times.  I don't know if it is the app or your back end systems but it doesn't work.  All good.  There is always someone to take your money.

Update - This app is not even consistent or accurate with current account information that you see when logging in with a web browser.  It does keep your minuets/text/data count for the current month accurate.  
Today I tried opening the app and it fails saying a network issue.  No issue - everything else works fine.  Just this app.  Password and userid are saved and accurate from previous access.  No effort put into this app.  Don't load it.  Use a browser to be certain of all data including annual renewal.
Another issue is when a new cycle starts it will not start until the end of the day instead of first thing.  I mean it recycles before midnight so if you are low on minutes that last day is a wasted day on the plan...  big deal.?  You decide in your situation.

OLD Write up - 
This app was never very good.  Try to get it to refresh and it goes off and sometime doesn’t come back.  A time or two I had to restart my phone to reset this darn app.  Better off logging in from a browser and delete this app.  It had been this way for time immemorial so don’t expect any improvement.

### 3/5 — Great rate, app needs improvement

*2026-05-28, version 4.7.0*

App checks Face ID 3-4x during login. It just doesn't make sense to check that many times.

### 2/5 — Poor service get what you pay for

*2026-03-14, version 4.5.2*

Poor service get what you pay for              Don’t put much weight into it cheep cheep service

### 2/5 — no data renewal date

*2026-03-10, version 4.5.2*

for a long time it never showed when your plan renews. now, after the last few updates it does, but doesn’t tell you anymore when your monthly data will renew. hey what’s so hard to display both information??? also why isn’t the app using Face ID to login? when renewing the plan the price showed, is never what you actually pay, it’s like 20 bucks more. why can’t you just include the fees and make it the same for everyone?

### 2/5 — Good price. Horrible customer service

*2026-03-07, version 4.5.1*

I have to call every month because auto renew won’t actually happen on my line. They’re vast differences between what you see on the app and what you see on the website. It’s an excellent price for a family, but the company is not ready for primetime.

### 2/5 — Cannot activate new line in app

*2026-02-11, version 4.5.0*

I cannot activate my new line because I cannot see the button to enter the activation code. I entered the sim id and the phone IMEI and then it wants the activation. I enter it but the Go button is below the field and it will not scroll so I can’t activate. I will have to use the laptop.

### 1/5 — Extremely poor service

*2026-01-21, version 4.4.1*

I have had 5 lines with them for 1 month so far and 4 of my lines have been cut off for no reason. My email has been deactivated twice so I can’t log on and twice they didn’t take my payment out even though I had auto pay on and they turned my phone off. It’s unreal how horrible this company is.

### 2/5 — Ms

*2026-01-14, version 4.4.1*

I have more problems than not on being able to use my phone for not only 800 numbers, but making local calls.  It was fixed once, then it happened again.  Every time I call, I have to repeat my issue information, as well as the internal SIM/EIN  info.  Too frustrating.

### 2/5 — Unlimited

*2025-12-28, version 4.4.1*

Apparently unlimited is not unlimited

### 3/5 — App is getting better

*2025-11-29, version 4.4.0*

apple pay and paypal for another payment method on the app it's not happening

### 1/5 — RedYes AppNO!

*2025-11-02, version 4.2.0*

The RedPocket service is great. The app is like used food

### 1/5 — Auto Renew failures

*2025-10-14, version 4.2.0*

I’ve used RedPocket for 2 years and loved it. The last 6 months has really sucked. Every month it doesn’t auto renew like it is supposed to and I go without cell service for a day while I am on a phone call trying to get it sorted out. Keeps kicking our lines off a family plan and charges us full price instead of the family discount.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-09-05, version 4.9.0*

Wow, the activation process is slow, and there is a real lack of communication its very disappointing. Still waiting on RedPocket to complete port and send the eSIM. Also just paid for my plan and it’s showing expired. Stay clear of this nightmare. The port out process was shady like them.

### 1/5 — Already paid , sent sim , have to pay again !???

*2026-08-27, version 4.9.0*

Disorder

### 1/5 — Poor app design.  Too many bugs.

*2026-08-15, version 4.8.1*

Poor app design. Too many bugs. Customer service does not respond to technical problems. Ignores issues.  Does not seem to care.  Does not fix reported problems.  Closes tickets that are unresolved.

### 1/5 — Impossible to contact

*2026-07-28, version 4.8.1*

I write this as I sit on hold with customer service. I have been on hold for 20 minutes, after having spent multiple hours trying and failing to activate my eSIM. The instructions provided for this with the purchase of a replacement phone for my existing restocked line simply do not work. Disappointed.

### 1/5 — registration error

*2026-06-11, version 4.7.0*

Not working, registration error, lots of messages

### 1/5 — Account registration impossible

*2026-05-26, version 4.7.0*

They get you to pay for their memeberships but don’t allow you to activate. NEVER PURCHASE FROM THESE SCAMMERS

### 1/5 — Grrrrr

*2026-05-08, version 4.7.0*

Can’t ever get it right!
I am on auto pay with husband. Every month they refill his but not mine!  They disconnect my phone EVERY month even though I am on auto pay!  I have called in EVERY month!  They assure me it will never happen again but it does!!!! Same account, same credit card but can’t seem to make my auto pay work. I am SO disappointed in this inept company!

### 1/5 — One click renew

*2026-03-31, version 4.5.2*

Need to have where you can hit one button to renew that line for the month plan easy simple

### 1/5 — App is poor quality

*2026-03-01, version 4.5.1*

Always sign in errors, can’t switch networks inside the app. Best to use the mobile version on your browser.

### 1/5 — it is the most scam

*2026-02-26, version 4.5.1*

### 5/5 — Best service/Low cost!

*2025-12-18, version 4.4.0*

I love my service in the area.  I was on another phone company and could not change my network.  Here I have great coverage and a low price!  Thanks RedPocket!!!

### 5/5 — The app works fine. The service is spectacular

*2025-12-17, version 4.4.0*

Been using the service for years.

### 5/5 — Make the switch!

This is by far the best phone company that I’ve come across. Absolutely love. My family and I will be customers for life.

### 5/5 — Needs an update fix

### 5/5 — Friendly

Great for everything I need.

### 5/5 — Best Way to Connect

*2025-02-10, version 3.3.0*

Does work for the carrier of your choice I pay $2.50 a month ($30 a year billed annually) for T-Mobile 1000 texts, 200 minutes Voice and 200MB data a month because I leave the cell data switched to OFF and only use WiFi for data. Buy the annual plans on eBay according to the carrier you prefer. iPhones are cheaper to buy from them.

### 5/5 — App is getting better

*2024-10-02*

Keep the security strong add more features,consider Add apple pay and paypal for another payment method!!!
