The cheapest way to buy Twigby's one real feature — unlimited US talk and text plus free unlimited calling to 80+ countries, with no data at all.

How Twigby Talk & Text Scores
We scored Twigby Talk & Text against the same four pillars we use for every plan. Here’s how it broke down.
Pricing: the international calling, unbundled
$10/mo standing, $5/mo for the first three months. That buys unlimited nationwide talk and text on Verizon's network plus free unlimited calling to 80+ countries — the identical international package Twigby puts on its $35 Unlimited plan.
There is no data allowance at all, which is the entire trade. If a phone needs to work away from Wi-Fi, this isn't the plan; the 2GB tier is $5/mo more standing.

Final Verdict
A well-priced plan for a narrow job: a basic phone, a landline replacement, or a second line whose only purpose is calling abroad. At ten dollars standing it's cheaper than almost anything with international calling attached, and it runs on Verizon's towers. But no data means no data — no maps, no messaging apps away from Wi-Fi, nothing. If the phone is a smartphone, spend the extra five dollars on the 2GB tier.
