Pro is its free...cons are...i talk on phone and every 15 minutes the phone call is cut off..75 percent of time is very slow..i type 3 letters and it lags and shows up after typing third letter. So it can be very slow..

The free service is what I like the most. Least, constantly urging me to use my phone. I'm not much of a talker, so I really use my phone for important things so it would definitely seem as if I don't use it at all.

Qlink so far has been a real good company. But I was told my phone I bought from them is just a 3g so that's why my phone jumps in & out of hotspot & my calls. I guess I'll have to up grade my phone & tablet Right?

Customer service keep telling me my phone will not work any longer. I was lucky I had a old phone because all they sent me was sim card. Not even sure how long this old phone will work. Once it goes out I will not use qlink no longer for I will not have a phone no more. I guess you have to buy other phone but can't get no answers from qlink.

That it's free and I can't afford to pay for the a phone. The worst thing is I got a tablet and it only worked for first month than it quit and when I got it the screen was all scratched up I waited and waited for it to come than got so disappointed. I kept calling to let ya know but could never get someone I could understand.I stopped calling. I wanted to know can I change to assurance or another government plane.

I like the expanded number of phone call minutes. Not that I call that much, but now I don't worry at all. The data was why I switched last year. I didn't have WiFi nor a computer so this was my connection to the internet.

The worst decision I ever made it’s been a complete disaster I was without a phone for a month and a half because I partially fill out the qlink info to switch to there Mickey Mouse “company” but never completed it because it wouldn’t allow me to switch my adress. I emailed called left msgs saying hey I don’t want your service I can’t change my adress don’t send me a SIM card. I never could get a response so I never submitted the changing of service. I found out straight talk a tremendous company had the same assistance program and it was quick easy and on my way everything perfect then all sudden my phone won’t work. Qlink ported my number anyway and sent the SIM card to wrong adress. They are a disaster I saw their name and best company next to each other so I had to let everyone know that is not the case

While qlink is a good phone company. They get people's attention with the unlimited calls text and data but it is all good but true. You are limited to a certain number of text messages per month also 32gb per month. It is not unlimited at all.

All the negative reviews are bc 1. It took months to get the tablet. I paid $20 for their basic obama type phone min storage and internet on that phone you can forget it. Then the tablet finally comes. And not even kidding ive tried to get it just on basically running and signed into google 2 weeks now. It literally type a letter to a word no lie 1-2 mina if it doesnt respond and ask to close the app or wait which takes another 10 -15 mins to start over or wait. Theres no sense. In even making junk like that. The money wasted in millions of them as well as mailing. Etc etc. This is insanity and waste or peoples time and money. Derelicts!

Few days after my application was approved, they notified me that there was an error in the information that I provided them. I fix it, but they continued insisting on the error. After fixing it about four times I noticed that the error was not my fault—someone else or the application system itself was changing my info. To solve that problem the last representative that attended me asked me permission to cancel my account, for me to reapply without mistakes—when the mistakes were not done by me. In that process they got from me my social security number and copies of my ID card, birth certificate, and Medicaid card. Now I wonder if it was all an identity theft scam.

This tablet does not work. Also, the sim card was not ordered with the phone so I will not have the normal 14 days to test it. Since I have to decide without the Sim card and the phone doesn't work without a sim card; it will have to be returned. The customer service is terrible. I called Q-link for help and the guy told me to Google it. He sounded irritated that I expected a 100.00 tablet to work well. I know for a fact that 30.00 tablets work far better than this one. Charging the government and the customer a combined 100.00 for this tablet is just fraud. I want to return everything and switch my service to a different company. I need to cancel the service and I need a full refund on the phone.

Qlink is by far THE WORST phone provider on the planet. My service cuts in and out all day. I miss calls, texts don't come through, texts don't go out, the internet is just about useless because it disconnects every 12 seconds. I have to put my phone in airplane mode to "kick start" the internet. Picture messages are not even gonna happen, don't ask. Their service is so frustrating I spend more time trying to get my worthless phone to connect than I do actually using it. I would not recommend them to anyone unless you're trying to get fired from your job, or have a lot of friends that you REALLY want to avoid contact with. When you really need the phone all you get is an X where the bars are supposed to be. Worst phone company ever. I've tried multiple phones, ordered new sim cards, it's their shoddy service and not on my end. I live IN TOWN. Yet have service like I'm in a iron bank vault 300 feet underground. Trust me, DON'T USE THEM. Furthermore, they get government funds to distribute preexisting services. They don't provide, so they are pretty much leaching off the government, stealing money. Shame on qlink!!! And customer service is absolutely nonexistent. The idiots they put you on the phone with know less about phones than they do about the English language. Just terrible, unreliable, dishonest. The free tablet deal is a scam as well, they send tpu a "free tablet" then send you a bill for it!!! Not even joking! I hate qlink!

If I could give zero stars I would. I have been waiting almost a year for my new phone and tablet. The phone I currently have through them broke so I called in May 2021 and the rep told me my new phone and tablet will be mailed any day. Well it's November and I just called again only to be told that the promotion is over and I would not be receiving a phone. She said I have to now buy a phone. I asked why am I not receiving it because I have been waiting and got approved for promotion. She said there are a lot of people that won't be getting a phone now but that I would still be getting the tablet that's on backorder. I am so disappointed and will be seeing if I can go with another provider

I've was with Qlink wireless since 2014 until today 11/9/21. I got unlimited texts, 1g data and 1500 mins of phone service contracted under Sprint. Which really sucked unless you were standing under a Sprint tower there were No Bars but unlimited texts worked out for communicating with my daughter . 2018 the spam calls started an unbelievable amount of calls I would return the call and I would get" sorry you have reached a number that is not in service blah, blah, blah Got to the point where I barrowed a phone from a friend to use until I received a email in March that Qlink was sending me an upgraded phone w/sim card service contract with T-Mobile was on its way to me here it's November 2021 and they sent me a sim card no phone but I can purchase a phone What? Hell no .I counted today in the past 6 weeks I have added 281 spam calls to my black list of blocked numbers . I told them no way they can cancel my service then I read this article- "Q Link Wireless, a provider of low-cost mobile phone and data services to 2 million US-based customers, has been making sensitive account data available to anyone who knows a valid phone number on the carrier’s network, an analysis of the company’s account management app shows." story continues ... Well no wonder I got all those spam calls . I am no longer a customer of Qlink wireless . I would check out any other wireless company other than QLink whos customer service sucks and do not care about their customers!!!

Ignore that 1 star. In April 2021 I received email to confirm address to receive free phone and sim card for upgraded network. I did so and received order confirmation. Q link never fulfilled that order and it disappeared from my account after 3 months. July 2021, received another email again requesting address confirmation to receive free phone and sim card. I did so and received 2nd order confirmation and again Q Link did not fulfill order and order disappeared from my account. October 2021, received email notifying my that my phone will no longer work after Dec 15 and i need to again confirm my address. Only difference this time is that they expect me to buy a phone. I have been with Q Link for five years and never had a problem. However If Q link thinks that I am going to buy a phone after they twice defaulted on a contract (which is what an order confirmation is), and while under FCC, FBI investigation, they should instead start thinking lawsuits. Next step, FCC complaint and after that, new lifeline provider.

I was told I was to receive a upgraded 5g free in mail also broadband deal which consists of free tablet . I did all required and Q Link wireless continued to inform it's in mail. Or going to send off. For a whole entire year I waited. They has cut my service off phone I had and put on phone I was waiting to receive. So in process, I'm waiting without any phone at all. I am disabled and money has been very scarce. I has been still looking for employment using that phone. I lost communications with a lot of social and business. I was lost. They continued to tell me its cuz of "covid.". Now finally I call final time and I'm told the" gimmick " expired now I get no free phone no upgrade I have pay for one. And I was offered broadband tablet again. ITS A GOVERNMENT PHONE. IT'S FOR OUR ASSISTANCE!! Even when I was with tmobile they honor their word ,offers deals. It's wrong I'm angry and I have no phone. I'm sure the government donr honor this treatment. Come on now stop bullcrapping people. You never gave me my first upgrade. A Lie. You trying to rob people and receive your tax write off. Government codes. Signed angry mistreated hoodwinked bamboozled by Q Link phonless melissa. I demand little respect . This is no better than racism it's just dealing with economic . To get to point Q Link did me injustice. If not or purpose I apologize. Yet it seems everything done to me was purposely. I would not speak these things just to do it. It really bothered me. And Iwas offended. I felt I was treated like I was stupid and a piece of dust to wipe off of table. I gave all respect, if I felt I didn't, I apologized. Just acknowledge and correct your mistake, please. We all deserve respect. Especially in these times. I'm trying to get back to working. Just do me right.

I wish I had actually read these reviews before signing up with Qlink. I have had a lifeline phone in the past with another company and had great service, so when I received a random email from Qlink, I decided to take advantage again since I was eligible again. I signed up May 2021. I used my own phone. I paid $100 to have it unlocked through a private party. Then, when I got there sim, the service was very sketchy and my voicemail was not working at all. After several calls and tickets, it took about 2 months before I was able to get working voicemail. All customer service reps I dealt with had heavy thick foreign (non American) middle eastern accents. I could not understand a word they were saying, especially since I'm hard of hearing. I kept getting passed around trying to find someone that could talk slowly and clearly enough for me to understand. I have received at least 50 text messages and 50 emails totaling 100, about signing up with the EBB benefits to get a free tablet, which I did. That was over 90 days ago. They keep telling me it's being shipped, but it's never come. I ended up switching my ebb benefits to ATT and got a cheap $50 Walmart tablet. Lastly, the actual cell services is TERRIBLE, the worst I have ever had, even back in the 90s my service was better than this!!! Constant dropped calls, calls that won't even go through to ring, and I am told that people call and call, but I never get any missed calls. It's ridiculous, I had to prove to my mother that I wasn't ignoring her, that it was my phone, by having her call me while I stood right next to her!!! It's awful! In my opinion, this is a foreign based company attempting to take advantage of American Government money. All I know is I will be transferring my lifeline service to another provider.

Qlink is a terrorist company. I went back and forth between customer and technical services, for almost 4 months. The details are the same as many of the negative posts here so I won't bore you with all that. *******LISTEN TO ME QLINK CUSTOMERS******* CALL OR WRITE THE FCC AND FILE AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT. They have a very easy online form right on their website. Once the FCC contacted Qlink and subsequently replied to my complaint. I had my new phone within a week. The harassing and nonsensical emails stopped. A knowledgeable customer service agent calls ME with helpful and useful information and issue fixes that work. FCC

DO NOT USE QLINK!!! I have been waiting for 3 months to get my new phone and SIM card. I have my phone order confirmation email and confirmation number from March 24th it is now the end of June! Everyday that I have tried to contact qlink wishing these last 3 months about my order they all say the same thing “your order will be shipped in 1 or 2 days” and STILL nothing has arrived I contact them at least once a week why has my phone and SIM card not arrived yet. Do not use qlink it’s you will never get your order. You will get the same response with no resolution, it will never get shipped out they just tell you it will while you wait for months and keep having to contact and not get your order. Find a better trustworthy company that cares to actually ship out your items dealing with qlink you will have no phone and no service. The worst phone company experience I have EVER encountered. I do not understand why they are still in business the low rating on the reviews speaks for itself.

Link Wireless is a SCAM to take the government money! Their internet service is nonexistent, it literally was loading between 147KB - 189KB when trying to open up the internet to find a phone number for a local business. It is impossible to reach their customer service, you will have to wait a minimum of 2 hrs on the line that’s if you get lucky, but more likely 3.5hrs, not even exaggerating either! Their phone service is awful also, I constantly get dropped calls and very difficult to talk to someone when their voice keeps cutting off, and they struggle to understand me before the call gets dropped, I’ve had it with this company, I don’t even know how they are allowed to continue to do business with just about every single customer being unsatisfied for one reason or another. They have been sending me emails and text messages about a free tablet they are giving out with some government broadband service/program and asking me to confirm my mailing address, and after doing so says wait for shipping tracking number which I never receive and the tablet is never delivered, instead I continue getting the same email/text asking me if I’m interested in a free tablet and to confirm my mailing address, every week or every other week since about February or March. Qlink Wireless needs to be investigated because clearly this is a money/profit motivated company with almost no concern or regard for its customers, or care to change anything. I’m leaving QLink, and just wanted to share my distaste with others to warn anyone considering choosing QLink as their free wireless phone provider, there are many other companies to choose from, and any one of them is a better choice!!

Q link is a complete joke. Dont waste your time. I have been trying to verify my info with national verifier for the past 2 weeks. But the link in my profile is not working. I chat with them online and they keep saying to do this and that over. News flash if it aint gonna work the first time than its not gonna work the 2nd, 3rd time and so on. And when you call I was on wait for a hour when they said it was only gonna be 10 mins. Than when finally someone answers and all they say is hi and never asks you why you are calling. Thats if you can understand their chinese english accents. They told me I had to cancel my service with Assurance Wireless to get approved with Q link so I did and I still havent gotten approved yet.
