I have an iPhone 6s Plus and was looking for a prepaid Data Plan for an old iPhone 5s that I use to take with me when I exercise. For anyone looking for just data for an iPhone or other IOS device this may be an option for you. Charge.co is now offering $15.00 per gig for Data (no voice or SMS) that never expires . I purchased one gig last week and received the SIM yesterday. It seems to work well and works on the Sprint network and at least for me there seems to be good LTE coverage in my area. I'm sure the one gig will last more than 6 months for my limited usage.
 
If you don't care about having a number u can buy simple mobile plans on eBay for $8. Come with unlimited talk, text and 4gb data.

Unless I'm reading wrong, those cheap Simple Mobile plans are for the SIM card and 1st month of service. Refilling each month is sure not $8/month.
Yes but if you are only interested in the data part, you can just keep buying a new sim every month. I have been doing this for almost two years. Initially the sims cost $3 bucks but they are now $8.
