The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which replaces the Emergency Broadband Benefit (EBB) program, provides a discount of up to $30 per month toward internet service for eligible households and up to $75 per month for households on qualifying Tribal lands. Eligible households can also receive a one-time discount of up to $100 to purchase a laptop, desktop computer or tablet from participating providers if they contribute more than $10 and less than $50 toward the purchase price. The ACP benefit is limited to one monthly service discount and one device discount per household. You may be eligible for the ACP based on your income or other qualifying criteria.

A household* is eligible if a member of the household meets at least one of the criteria below:

• Has an income that is at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines

• Participates in certain assistance programs, such as SNAP, Medicaid, Federal Public Housing Assistance, SSI, WIC or Lifeline

• Participates in Tribal-specific programs, such as Bureau of Indian Affairs General Assistance, Tribal TANF or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations

• Is approved to receive benefits under the free and reduced-price school lunch program or the school breakfast program, including through the USDA Community Eligibility Provision in the 2019-20, 2020-21 or 2021-22 school year

• Received a Federal Pell Grant during the current award year

*A household is a group of people who live together and share money (even if they are not related to each other). If you live together and share money, you are one household. If you either don’t live together or you don’t share money, you are two or more households.

You can apply the $30 ACP discount and receive free mobile service if you choose the Unlimited Talk, Text and 7GB LTE Data Plan for Phones or the 7GB LTE Data Plan for Devices — or, when available, you may apply the $30 ACP discount to a different phone or connected device plan and pay the difference between the discount and the plan cost if the plan you choose is more expensive. Qualifying new customers will receive a Gen Mobile SIM card in the mail. Qualifying existing customers can have their discount applied to their Gen Mobile plan or if the customer would like a new phone number/account, a Gen Mobile SIM card will be mailed to them.

The 7 GB ACP plan may include the following features:

• Unlimited nationwide calling in the U.S.

• Unlimited nationwide text

• High-speed 5G/4G LTE data

To bring your phone number to Gen Mobile, you will need the following account information:

• First and last name

• 10-digit phone number

• Account number

• Account porting PIN. Ask your carrier for the PIN that is needed to port your number and request the removal of any port protection

• Complete address

• ZIP code. When submitting the ZIP code, utilize the ZIP code associated with your area code and prefix (i.e. the first 6 numbers of your phone number) as provided here. If you use a different ZIP code, the port may be delayed up to 48 hours. Once you submit your number transfer request, it may take up to 48 hours for your current carrier to release your phone number.

To expedite your number transfer, we recommend the following:

• Call your carrier and verify your account information before starting the port-in process, pay off any balance due and remove any port protection feature

• Do not cancel your account with your original carrier until your number is transferred to Gen Mobile. Your number must be ACTIVE on your original carrier throughout the port-in process

• The device you are porting into must be network unlocked, paid off, 4G VOLTE compatible and not barred for any reason (e.g. reported lost or stolen)

• For the Blue Network, you must use an AT&T compatible device — international devices will not work

• Do not submit a port-in for a number that was already ported within the last 48 hours

For help with porting your number, call 1-833-528-1380 or dial 611 from your Gen Mobile phone. To chat with us click here.
