Prepaid Phone Plans A major challenge for any international student's independence is obtaining a Social Security number (SSN). Without an SSN students cannot obtain credit cards which are required for phone service. That is why a phone service from us will come in handy while applying for jobs or apartment searching. It will also serve as a private point of contact where your parents can call in case of an emergency.
 
How studentpickup helps?
Since an international student doesn’t have much leverage to move around in early days of arrival  and nor they have SSN to buy phones, communication can be challenging. Studentpickup arranges prepaid phone with prepaid calling card for US which a student can order online before they leave for United States. Upon arrival, the phone is handed over by the studentpickup driver who will pick you up at the airport. Students have option to either keep the prepaid plan or discontinue it when they get an SSN.
