In the EU (i am from Germany) you can't even get prepaid card that work out of the box without activation online where you have to enter your name, address and some sort of id. And it has go be the end customer. No middle man. I am sure there are tricks/hacks where you are still able to get one anonymously, but the law sucks.
Edit: Apparently only in Germany. Not EU. But coming soon to your country. A EU wide plan is already in the making. But just not enough interest right now.

Offtopic, but I would really dig it if you (or anyone here) could help me with this question that bugs me eversince I try to value my privacy: What if a company just ignores my privacy settings? Can I still get tracked by an app, although I disabled tracking, etc? Is it all built on trust until there is a leak?
I am putting in all this work on hardening my browser, changing settings on my phone, etc. - But how safe is it really?

They want $2000 for a less-than-mid-range phone, why should anyone be surprised if they want $100 for one line of data? I wonder what is it taking so long to build a phone with low-low-end phone specs? They seem to be more about selling ideas, instead of products. And they want to charge the early adopters a massive premium.

I use Straight Talk Wireless. $55 a month, unlimited everything, 10GB hotspot. Supports Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Paid in cash. I load up a prepaid card for monthly autodraft payments. They have no idea who I am and offer great customer service. Bring a phone, they overcharge and lock the bootloader on theirs.

This is a SCAM. I am dealing with this company for more than 6 months to get a refund regarding a laptop I have never received. I tried to escalate my case, or to get help. However, no way! They changed the status in my account to -Refunded-, but I didn't get any refund.

It seems pretty inconvenient for your wallet and it doesn't help that the apps on your phone pin point your current location, which can be used to compare to to the -anonymous- T-Mobile\AT&T users' tracking data.

All their products are over-priced; well, said. I was interested in their mini-pc but by the time, one adds memory, wifi-card, SSD, and more + shipping it is well over $1k And, this $99 /month talk-plan is absurd, too.
