RingPlus is another carrier like Freedompop where you buy the device, set up the account and pay nothing there after. They are on Sprint so make sure you have service . The deal I have with them was called the Leonardo 4 plan, comes with 1400 mins talk, 1400 text and 1200 Mbs of Data including using the hotspot for free a month. I did have to put $20 into a account in case I went over. Extra gigs are $8 a gig.
Unlike FreedomPop, RingPlus does not have hotspot only plans. I bought a Sprint Prepaid LG Tribute Duo on sale at Best buy for the service. I ran it through the MEID checks and signed up in minutes. You can buy and even lease phones from them if you wish or switch one over from another service.
Besides paid plans, they make their money using music and ads instead of a ring tone while you call someone. Sometimes when you sigh up for a promoted plan, it will have a survey or you will need to link to social networks. Those promotions are paid for by the company wanting the survey. Each promotion usually only last for days so keep watch for the kind of plan you want. Some are heavier in TnT, others include more data or free use of the hotspot. There is a set of paid and lower tier free plans that are constant.
As for the service. I have had good luck using the phone for calls and text. The signal and data speeds are the same as with my Mingle Hotspot, weak when the signal is, blazing fast when the signal is good. (up to 33 Mbps so far)
So if you need a emergency back up, something to connect when other services may not or just a extra bit of data a month, RingPlus may be for you.
You can check them out at RingPlus.net and I am happy to answer any questions I can but I have no connection except being a happy customer.
