Impossible Cancellations
Customers report needing 5–15 cancellation attempts before service is stopped. Return labels expire, and charges continue for months after requesting cancellation.
After an $8 million Texas Attorney General settlement, 700+ BBB complaints, and a founder with a prior federal fraud conviction, Nomad Internet filed for bankruptcy on April 8, 2026. Here’s what happened and what you can do now.

Nomad Internet operated as a cellular reseller, purchasing SIM cards from major carriers and reselling internet service at inflated prices — charging customers $100–$130/month for service that the underlying carrier sells directly for $50–$60/month. The Texas Attorney General alleged the company acquired SIM cards through unauthorized means and resold them as “unlimited, unthrottled internet.”
In April 2023, Texas AG Ken Paxton sued Nomad Internet, calling it a “$75 million deceptive scheme.” The state alleged the company reprogrammed SIM cards to avoid carrier detection and created thousands of fake accounts using fictional identities. The court initially froze the company’s assets.
In June 2024, Nomad settled for $8 million — including $2 million in direct refunds to over 20,000 affected consumers. The company’s founders were permanently barred from advertising or leading any telecom service without authorized carrier agreements.
On April 8, 2026, the two entities behind Nomad Internet — Everywhere Internet LLC and GEV IO, LLC — filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Northern District of Texas. Combined liabilities range from $11M–$60M against assets of at most $10M. The filing explicitly states that no funds are expected to be available for unsecured creditors, meaning customers owed refunds are unlikely to recover anything.
Nomad Internet accumulated hundreds of complaints across the BBB, Trustpilot, and consumer forums. Here are the most common issues reported by customers:
Customers report needing 5–15 cancellation attempts before service is stopped. Return labels expire, and charges continue for months after requesting cancellation.
Continued charges after cancellation, autopay failures triggering delinquency notices, and double-billing with no refunds.
Service dropping 20+ times per day, speeds far below advertised rates, and multi-week outages with no resolution.
No working phone number, email-only support with multi-day response times, tickets closed without resolution, and conversations not tracked between interactions.
If you’re currently a Nomad Internet customer or considering their service, here’s what we recommend:
Contact your bank or credit card company to block future charges from Nomad Internet. Many customers report continued billing even after cancellation requests.
If you’re owed money by Nomad Internet, file a proof of claim with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court (Northern District of Texas, Dallas). Note: the filing states no funds are expected for unsecured creditors.
Don’t wait for Nomad’s service to go dark. WiFi FoMo offers unlimited cellular internet on three major networks for $99/mo — no contracts, no credit checks, instant activation, and you can actually cancel when you want to.

As of the Chapter 11 filing on April 8, 2026, Nomad Internet's website is still active and accepting new customers. However, Chapter 11 allows operations to continue during reorganization — this does not guarantee long-term service continuity. Given the company's stated liabilities far exceed assets, service disruptions are a real risk.
Unfortunately, the bankruptcy filing explicitly states that no funds are expected to be available for unsecured creditors. If you're owed money, you can file a proof of claim before August 17, 2026 with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court (Northern District of Texas), but recovery is unlikely. Contact your bank about chargebacks for recent unauthorized charges.
WiFi FoMo offers unlimited data-only cellular internet on three major networks for $99/month. Unlike Nomad Internet (which relied on a single carrier), WiFi FoMo lets you choose the best network for your area. There are no contracts, no credit checks, and cancellation is straightforward — month-to-month with no games.
That depends on the device. WiFi FoMo supports BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) for carrier-unlocked, compatible devices not on a blacklist. If your Nomad modem is carrier-locked, you may need a new carrier-certified device. Check WiFi FoMo's device compatibility when you sign up.
WiFi FoMo offers instant activation — no installation appointments, no technician visits. Order your plan, set up your carrier-certified device, and you're online. Most customers are up and running the same day they sign up.
Nomad Internet was founded by Homero "Jaden" Garza and Jessica Garza in 2017. Homero Garza was previously convicted of federal wire fraud for running a cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme (GAW Miners/PayCoin) and was sentenced to 21 months in prison plus $9 million in restitution. He started Nomad Internet shortly after his release in 2020.
