FONA 3G: Ting No Longer Supported

Post by redwineblake »

Recently purchased the FONA 3G module and a Ting SIM card. With some foresight, I could have gone a read previous blog posts to find this out, but unfortunately, I made it all the way to Ting's customer support center to be told they no longer cover these devices. I love how much detail you guys put into your products, but it seems like this is one rather large oversight...

1. Please update the FONA modules to list that Ting is no longer supported.
2. Please update the FONA modules to list providers that work with 3G...if any exists anymore....
3. Does something like this work with the module? https://1nce.com/en-us

Having known that it looks like 3G and 2G are going away, I probably would have purchased something else...buyer beware.

Dear adafruit team, please update the product description. Otherwise, many more users will face this same problem.
