Small List compiled for Flip phone service. Regular service with unlimited data and all to come.

1.Tracfone-All Carriers $20 Talk/Text 1GB ($30 for first 6 months)
1b. Unlimited talk and text, no data $15/month ($10 with auto pay)

2.Mobi-Verizon $10 (Additional $5 off the 1st three months)

3.Tello-Tmobile $8 , US Mobile.

4.HelloMobile-Tmobile $5 (first 2 months for $5)

                 -EXPLAINED A BIT MORE IN DETAIL-
Tracfone Wireless- (CDMA/GSM Verizon/T-Mobile/AT&T)
First 6 months at $30 plus taxes.
Pay for the first 2 months $15 each month with autopay, then use reward points for the next 4 months. Use Referral code OOAB-E354 to get you 8,000 points. You must activate and set up the rewards within 14 days of activating Phone service.
  They limit 5 uses per month, so feel free to PM before using if you want to confirm they work for this month, as well they seem to be changing the referral code after every use. So feel free to post in the thread or message me for a new code.
       The points will only kick in after 60 days of service(hence the reason for keeping paid service for 60 days) the points will kick in getting you 8,000 Points, which is enough for 4 months free. You can redeem 2,000($20) increments for a free month of service and do that for a total of 4 months free.
  Now you must turn off auto pay after the first 2 months in order for the free 4 months that you added to kick in.  If you don't turn off auto pay it will continue billing your credit card and you will not get those free months until you turn off auto pay.
 Works on CDMA or GSM.

 Mobi Wireless- (Verizon/CDMA)
 $10 a month. With a referral code you can get another $5 off the 1st three months which I can give you. You need to sign up in the first week for the referral bonus to kick in.
Click here to pm me for the info.

Unlocking your Google Voice number costs $3, but it's free if your number was originally ported in from a mobile service provider.

Number Barn?

https://www.numberbarn.com
$2 a month and $5 port fee, so lets just say until pesach which is about 8 months that's already $21 so GV would do the same trick.

  long term GV is your best bet, unless there's other options out there.

 IIRC there used to be service plans that stay alive for as long as you have minutes left.

You need the Visible app to activate the service. After that, I’m not sure if it will work in the app.

Unlimited plan for $10-$15 a month. Need 25 lines. I'd do it in a heartbeat if the billing can be arranged somehow

You can sign up for Visible and get a $100 MasterCard if you port in a number and pay for two months. You can get the first month for $5 and the second one for $25, so it’s like 4 free months of service.
