h2o Wireless (formerly O2 Wireless, not to be confused with O2 of Europe) is a United States-based prepaid GSM phone and Internet service. The CEO and Founder is Michael Walters of Cincinnati. It is the brand of mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) Locus Telecommunications, a subsidiary of KDDI America Corporation since 2010, [1] via AT&T's network. It is primarily advertised as a non-restrictive phone service for customers to bring or buy unsubsidised/unlocked smart phones.
Service
h2o Wireless offers both unlimited talk and text plans, as well as pay-as-you-go plans. All plans under h2o Wireless allow the customer to use any Unlocked GSM phone, which includes phones made by AT&T and T-Mobile. Because h2o Wireless uses AT&T's network, every AT&T phone is compatible with its service, including locked and contract phones. All h2o Monthly Unlimited plans provide unlimited talk and text capabilities, unlimited international texting, and unlimited international calling to over 50 countries. The Monthly Unlimited Plans start with the $30 plan which has 2*GB of 4G LTE data and $10 of international talk credit to call any country that is not on their unlimited international talking plan. The $40 plan provides 4*GB of 4G LTE data, and $20 of international talk credit. The $50 plan offers 6*GB of 4G LTE data, and $20 of international talk credit. The $60 plan has 7*GB of 4G LTE data, and $20 of international talk credit. Plans with unlimited data get throttled to 128 kbit/s when usage exceeds the 4G allowance for the given plan.
