Sixty dollars for a full year of talk and text — about five dollars a month, and the cheapest genuine phone line we've found anywhere.
At a Glance
How H2O Annual $60 Scores
We scored H2O Annual $60 against the same four pillars we use for every plan. Here’s how it broke down.
Pricing: five dollars a month, and that's the whole story
$60 upfront buys 360 days of talk and text — about $5/mo. We haven't found a cheaper line that still gives you a real number on a real nationwide network.
What it doesn't include is everything else: no data, no international calling, no hotspot, and no eligibility for AutoPay or multi-line discounts. The payment is non-refundable, so buy it knowing the phone will need Wi-Fi for anything beyond calls and texts.

Final Verdict
The cheapest genuine phone line we track, and a good answer to a real question: how do you keep a number alive, or give someone a phone that can call and text, for as little as possible? Five dollars a month does that on a fast network. It is not a smartphone plan — no data means the device is Wi-Fi-only in practice. For an emergency phone, a child's first phone, a work backup or an elderly relative who only makes calls, it's excellent.
