We have some unfortunate news to share: The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is set to wind down soon according to the recent notification from the FCC as new ACP enrollments were frozen completely on February 8, 2024. Without additional funding, ACP pays its full benefit only until April 30, 2024, with a partial benefit in May. However, AirTalk Wireless will provide you with your full-service plan in May regardless of the level of the ACP benefit. This means May will be the last month to receive the ACP benefit.
But don’t worry! Your phone service will continue uninterrupted until an announcement of the ACP programs final date.
Will Lifeline be affected?
Despite the ACP potentially pausing, Lifeline will continue without any impact, so there’s no need to worry! AirTalk Wireless is authorized to provide Lifeline services in 50 states. Once ACP is discontinued, you’ll still be able to keep your connection with your Lifeline service at $0/mo to enjoy unlimited voice, text, and 4.5GB of data. This is what separates us from our competitors.
Need more data? We have an offer for only $10/mo to get unlimited voice, text, and 10GB/mo.
Nevertheless, transferring to AirTalk Wireless is still possible with full benefits as always. if you’re already benefiting from ACP with another service provider, consider switching to AirTalk Wireless today for exclusive advantages you won’t find anywhere else.
