1. visual voicemail stops working every few months, you have to call redpocket, they fix it in a 15 minute call, say this shouldn't happen again, and then it only works for another few months.
2. NO TETHERING on current phones! I had a moto x4 up until a few months ago and tethering worked fine. I just switched to a pixel 3a and found out that officially tethering IS NOT ALLOWED and it was just a bug with older phones that allowed it to.
Now I'm looking for a new provider when my year is up in a few months, I'll probably have to go with verizon prepaid.
att gsma redpocket does support tethering but you don't get visual voicemail for free. I took two phones on vacation to some national parks, att redpocket and verizon redpocket. the att usually reported the same signal or one bar higher, however in terms of actual data usability it was about the same, I saw somewhere that maybe att's thresholds for the bar levels are a little lower. But when it really mattered I was able to get just enough intermittent signal from verizon to get an email out whereas att was useless.
Also, att tethering apparently blocks all ports other than standard web traffic, so I had problems with some of my work apps that were fine with verizon.
Also, Red Pocket eBay plans can be applied up to 90 days after purchase... or at least that was the arrangement last year. My October 14 purchase was held and was applied on December 9th.... which from my perspective means I'm already within 90 days of my own renewal so my eyes are open for the next deal on the 20GB plan.
Last - tethering. I can't help anybody tied to or preferring the Verizon network. All I know is it's worked consistently on AT&T for years on every one of my phones.

It really is a no brainer. And it is free.
Again, no brainer, and free.

What about mms?
You'll have 90 days to activate the plan. However, if this is the same as your existing plan, you can add-on now to stack.

8GB is just not enough; too much month and not enough data for my purposes.
It doesn't take much to pull down 1GB.
The best app to run continuous (minimal data use) is Spotify.
The worst apps to run are iHeart, podcasts, youtube, and GPS.

I also have been using Red Pocket Verizon for almost a year now and it has been good. No drop calls. Download Speed is about 12mbps where I live during the day but it gets faster at night.
Will GSMT (T-Mobile) work on my unlocked Verizon iPhone BTW ? Thanks for your assistance.
How fast is Red Pocket ATT, 5G speed?
