Discussion on cell phone plans and MNVO's
Rules:
Since you mention USMobile, I'm on the pooled plan with 4 lines (soon to be 5) and I might hit $70 this month with all the travel. It's the first time we went over 5gb.
Their customer service is amazing. Where else do you have a CEO that will answer your emails when you have a good suggestion?
I agree, I’ve seen nothing but amazing things about their customer service.
That goes along way.
Indeed, been using US Mobile for years. Wife decided she needed AT&T network and we almost lost her phone number in the process of moving it to AT&T Prepaid. Also my god the phone support on AT&T Prepaid is atrocious by comparison.
US Mobile is an absolute godsend.
AT&T prepaid support is just awful. So's their website. If you need their coverage is good to know how to file complaints. I've had luck with the FCC and also with their "Office of the President".
Yup, if we needed to move our lines to Verizon network, I think we'd be with US Mobile. They seem really solid all around.
6 lines on various Red Pocket annual plans for a couple of years. No complaints but I’m highly technical so I can diagnose things myself. I also am all iOS which seems to be better supported. Only complaint is that you have to open a support ticket to enable the free visual voice mail for iOS devices; it is $1 a month for other devices.
Visible on a Pixel 7. Got their "Visible+" plan for $35/month promo, it has 50gb premium data and unlimited hotspot, taxes included in the price too. I like it. T-Mobile was faster even on prepaid priority.
IPhone SE 2020: Tracfone and Dent
Pixel 3 XL: MobileX
Tracfone (AT&T SIM) is my main provider. It has been very reliable which is good because support is useless.
I use Dent for free data that you earn by watching ads. When I had an issue with missing promotional data CS fixed it promptly. There are a lot of outages but I have Tracfone to fall back on.
I'm trailing MobileX has a possible replacement if Tracfone goes FUBAR. It mostly works. I've had issues with the app and with outages but support has resolved them competently and quickly.
I’ve been pretty happy with
Using AT&T Prepaid right now. Seems like the best balance between price and service for me.
I'll reply!

I have enough members to be able to pay ~$22/month with fees, and I appreciate that the data prioritization is the same as post paid.
I hadn't looked at their multi-line pricing before, $22/mo is quite good!
They also offer free connections to LTE enabled smart watches (for a couple models anyways)
Been using Mint for the past 4 years. Got my son his first phone this year and got him a Mint plan too which I manage through my account. We both have 5GB month plans which costs $360 a year for both. I work from home so don't need anymore data than that. I barely use 2GB per month. When he's in school all day, he doesn't use his phone much either, so it works out , but I'm sure he could use more than 5GB if he had it.
Mint has been pretty solid. No major issues either with setting up or daily usage. I'm totally satisfied. I was paying $100 a month just for myself prior to moving to Mint from Verizon. I've saved thousands since.
It looks like a great option, I hope it stays that way now that it’s being acquired by T-Mobile
