We use the Skymobile Red plan for our RV Travels

We use the Skymobile Red plan for our RV travels. Love the simplicity and get great speeds. Much better than our previous provider. We also love that don't have to physically install anything into or on our RV. Just plug it in and it works.

I absolutely LOVE my Sky Mobile

I absolutely LOVE my Sky Mobile wifi router! I ordered the C4R400 Red Plan. I was expecting a thick booklet of instructions, but you just plug it in and turn it on! I live in rural North Texas, and pretty much gave up on ever watching Netflix or On Demand again. But I get it all now, and it hasnt buffered one time. Very very happy with Sky Mobile! THANK YOU!

Had this service for just one day and I highly recommend them, i live in a rural area and have no real internet providers that don't cost a kidney for like 150Gbs of data per month and that doesnt last very long with kids and my own personal needs. Thanks SkyMobile you guys are awesome!

Pink plan a waste of money

The service (using their Pink plan (T-Mobile) and Gli.Net router) has never worked reliably. In the 8 months I've paid for the service, I have been able to get about 60 minutes of usable internet. I realize I should have reached out to Skymobile earlier, but even when I did, their recommended change to the router still yielded no functional service. I'm not sure where the issue lies, but the Pink offering of hardware and plans cannot be recommended.

Tech support is slow

I ordered the SIM only package as my wireless modem was acceptable with the Skymobile LLC required equipment list. I received the SIM card on Saturday, July 31st. I replaced the old SIM card and the Skymobile service started working as planned.

This morning around 8:30am, I had no internet service and the modem had a message "Mobile Broadband Disconnected". Moments after seeing that message, I sent a message through Skymobile's website message center that I had a problem and what did I need to do to fix that. I've had no contact yet.

At 10am I sent an email to their tech support center outlining my problem and asking for a solution. Finally, at 11:11 I got a response to factory reset the modem. Will try that to see if that work.

Tech support suggested doing a factory reset via paperclip method.

Around 11:25, just before performing the factory reset, mobile broadband connectivity was restored.

I did the factory reset and the modem appears to be working ok at this time.

As a result, I have upgraded my rating.

Update: On September 1st around 8:30am, my modem quit working giving me a message that “SIM not provisioned MM#2”. I notified tech support via email around 9:38am about the issue. And 9:52am I received an email from tech support notifying me that that they have reached out to their engineers to take a closer look. They told me would get back when they had more information. I was also asked to factory reset my modem. At 3:47pm, I received an email from Tech Support informing me that the engineers have submitted this line for refresh and that it is currently in pending status.

Still waiting for latest update as of Sept 2nd around 11:30.

When the service is working - it works very well. I'm a little disappointed in two outages roughly a month apart.

Update Sept 2nd. Skymobile let me know that AT&T performing network upgrades in my area requiring a new SIM card.

9/8/2021: Received new SIM card. Back up online running normal.

Update: Sept 11, 2021: Internet connectivity slowed down greatly to 0.49; 0.30 and 0.29 Mbps. Checking the modem, I received a message from AT&T that my 10GB data plan was used up and that data usage would be slowed down to 512Kbps until several days later. Surprised there was a 10GB data limit as I am paying for an unlimited plan. Sent an email to Skymobile tech support this afternoon asking for help.

TRASH

We pay $150 monthly for this internet service and it isn’t even worth a penny of that. The internet speeds are absolutely horrible. For a while now I test it every day, and some days it lags a little, but most days I can’t get at least 1mbps. It’s the worst. When I contact customer service they just recommend you spend more money on more equipment to help the internet. I just feel like if I’m paying $150 a month it should at least work and I shouldn’t have to spend more money on more equipment to make my internet work. But we are gonna try this booster they recommend and see. I don’t have high hopes. Don’t waste your time or money. All they care about is money. Their internet is trash!

Hi Amber,

We're so sorry to hear about your troubles! We've been in contact with you regarding your issues! Unfortunately the signal in your area wasn't suitable for the Red Plan! Perhaps you could try out our Blue Plan (A$T&T) instead and see if it will provide you better speeds! :) We always offer our 14-day risk free trial period where you can be fully refunded for the service! :)

Dump these unprofessional people!

I ordered a SIM card from them for AT&T service. SIM card did not work in the NetGear NightHawk M1Modem I purchased new on eBay. Error message said "SIM not installed" even though it was, and was seated properly. After a lot of emailing, since they will not answer their phone, they advised to send it back. I did and also sent the modem back to eBay seller. I then ordered a NetGear NightHawk modem from SkyMobile with SIM already installed, at about $120 more than eBay. They refunded my SIM card payment, then flippantly cancelled my modem order. I ordered it a second time, and they cancelled my order again. After a dozen emails to these inept people, they will not tell me why the orders were cancelled, nor return my emails. Don't waste your time with these unprofessional airheads. Revolt Broadband has the exact same AT&T unlimited data service for $99, $30 less than SkyMobile each month. Do yourself a favor and dump SkyMobile!

They never fulfilled my order

They never fulfilled my order. However they did cancel upon my request. I was promised 1 to 3 day shipment and finally gave up after several weeks. I attempted to communicate, however I would only receive a generic email stating that orders usually shipped within one to three days. I then saw another ad on Facebook for them and politely commented to warn people away. Somehow my comment was deleted.

Completely unreliable.

Completely unreliable.

I submitted an order on February 19th, 2021 for a device in addition to services. I was informed that device orders shipped out in 3-5 business days, but it’s been seven. I called their customer service department, but was only redirected in circles by a bot. I emailed their customer service department and was promised a response in 24 hours, but nothing. I’m a college student and I live in a rural area, so I have no other options outside of slow, satellite internet. If I could cancel, I would. If you have other options, do not use Skymobilellc.

Edit: They responded that they’ve been in email contact with me, but they sent me an email after this review for the first time.

I ordered on Feb 18th today is the 26th. I was told 5 business days and when I checked the order status it stated it was unfulfilled. I sent an email stating I would report them to the BBB and Indiana attorney general for fraud. Integrity means everything. Later on in the day I got an email stating my subscription was cancelled and a refund was coming. Their contact number is a recording only. Buyers beware.
