The modern digital landscape increasingly demands reliable connectivity, making access to affordable wireless service less of a luxury and more of a fundamental necessity. Recognizing this critical need, Total Wireless, a fast-growing, no-contract wireless provider covered by the robust Verizon 5G network, introduced its LifeLine discount program specifically tailored for California residents.
This initiative is a crucial step toward bridging the digital divide within the state, ensuring that low-income individuals and families can remain connected to essential services, employment opportunities, and educational resources.
Total Wireless Offers Subsidized Lifeline Plans with Free Smartphones
Through the established California LifeLine program, Total Wireless is now offering dramatically subsidized service. Qualifying customers can receive a feature-rich Total Wireless plan that includes unlimited talk, unlimited text, and a substantial allowance of 6GB of high-speed data every 30 days — all for as low as $0 per month.
This zero-cost option is transformative, eliminating financial barriers entirely for the most vulnerable populations. Furthermore, to ensure immediate access to this lifeline service, customers also receive a complimentary smartphone upon enrollment, removing the typical hurdle of needing to purchase new or expensive equipment.
This free device is modern, reliable, and capable of fully utilizing the Verizon 5G network, ensuring a high-quality user experience.
“Access to reliable wireless service shouldn’t be out of reach for anyone,” said David Kim, Chief Revenue Officer at Verizon Value. “That’s why we’re bringing California LifeLine to Total Wireless stores across the state, making it simple for eligible residents to sign up and get connected—with no barriers, no credit checks, and no compromises on quality.”
Easy Enrollment and Eligibility
California residents can enroll with Total Wireless quickly and conveniently. Apply in-person at any Total Wireless location via scannable QR codes, or complete your application online.
Automatic qualification for LifeLine benefits is available to recipients of CalFresh, Medi-Cal, Veterans Pension and Survivors Benefit, and other government assistance programs. Both new and current customers are eligible. Remember, LifeLine benefits are non-transferable and restricted to one per household.
