This Product Discontinued or Obsolete
While current owners of this device or plan may continue to find performance to be adequate for the foreseeable tech-future, we do not recommend upgrading to or purchasing it.
In June 2020, we saw reports of Venn Mobile not accepting new activations.
As of September, they do not have any plans or phones listed on their site. When asked, they said the are "replenishing inventory" and do not have an ETA of when items will be back in stock.
We recommend using caution if using this vendor.

The plan also includes 10GB of LTE roaming data in Canada and Mexico, and 1080p HD video streaming.
They have a limited number of phones for sale on their site, or you can bring your own device.
Currently they are only offering Voice Plans. However they do have a tab on their site for Data Plans, although there are no data plans actually listed.
