Looking for data only plan

Company fringe benefit gets us two free phones so I need a data only plan. Currently using Straight Talk 5 gig on Verizon pay as you go but think it will be a bit of a hassle when we start full time. What do you suggest.

Verizon has data only. I don't know how the price compares to Straight Talk, but you can check it out.

The other option would to see if you can add data to your company-provided phone plan and pay for that portion yourself.

We used Verizon w/ 4 gig monthly data plan on a JetPack. It worked fine, as long as you used RV park WiFi when you could.

The JetPack on Verizon works fine. If you have a newer iPad Air 2 with cellular you can install a SIM card and get whichever data plan you want. I'm using 20Gig plan and it isn't always enough 😩😖

The biggest problem with Karma is it uses the Sprint network. In the end, it's all about the network and coverage. You'll be hard pressed to do better than Verizon or AT&T.

In most of these cases, you truly get what you pay for.

Good Luck!
