New members who (1) purchase a qualifying device or bring their own, (2) transfer their existing phone number from an Eligible Carrier, (3) activate their Visible service, and (4) complete 3 full months' service payments, are eligible to receive up to a $200 virtual gift card…
For the HomePod Mini, condition (4) is not listed. So, you do not need to pay for 3 months to keep your HomePod Mini.
HomePod Mini retails for $99, but can be found much cheaper.
Costco has them at $95.
Best buy has them as open box (Excellent) at $88.
Staples has them new at $89, but you need to follow through google shopping link to get the price (try incognito mode).

Their esim, which I initially used, is quite buggy where I couldn't do MMS/group SMS. However, long story short I asked for a physical sim card and that fixed the issue.
Also, Visible routes traffic via their (cloud) servers in NJ and Colorado, so if you're close to these areas then it'll likely work out better.
Oh, and their customer service is hilariously incompetent. But for $25 a month (via party pay, taxes included), it's definitely worth it if you're willing to make a couple of sacrifices and be hands off with your bill and if you aren't able to set up a family plan with many others. You get the same coverage with a couple of trade offs that might or might not be worth it for you.
I know lot of people wondering the same on another Xfinity thread.
thanks
Buy $1 Ting SIM w/ $30 credit.
Set up new Ting service.
$30 credit makes 30d Ting service free.
port number to Visible
I don't want to keep the number
It seems that only $80 is saved

Fine for personal use but if you use your phone for business do not use them as if you get stuck in limbo there is no immediate recourse.

p.s. - I had got $200 GC during the iPhone 11 promotion, so that's about 2 years back, if i buy iPhone 13 will I be eligible (moved my lines to cricket after 3-4 months)?
I drive a lot across country, and I tested Visible, Google Fi and T-mobile, in my use cases (navigation systems, surfing web, messengers, YouTube) Google Fi and T-Mobile was slightly better, the coverage almost the same. Sometimes in crowded areas internet was really slow. Had no any issue with GC, promo headphones and number transfer. Overall the value is very good for me
