Phones for Seniors

It's a little different searching for service for Seniors.  Here are some options

Work in progress.  If you have questions feel free to contact me.

Jitterbug

You are required to have Jitterbug Service to go along with a Jitterbug phone.  Jitterbug uses the Verizon Wireless network so you will have good coverage throughout the USA.   Service costs between $15 (50 voice minutes) and $80 (unlimited voice minutes) a month. Texts are 10c and you can buy 300 texts a month for $5.

Snapfon EZone

The Snapfon ezONE

The Snapfon ezONE is a large button cell phone. This is an unlocked quad-band GSM phone so it will operate on AT&T or T-Mobile. There is text messaging but no data.  You can get it on Amazon for around $60. It comes with a PureTalk USA SIM but you do not have to use it.  You can use any GSM SIM.  This is a 2G-only phone so it will not work in 3g only areas.  This will not be a problem in the near time but will be in a few years.
