I have never in my life had an "Unlimited Plan" from any provider.

I will be doing a lot of traveling next year and was wondering what is the going rate for unlimited data nowadays. How much should i expect to pay, what is a good deal . . . ?
That's not such an easily answered question because there are "unlimited plans" available from $25 to 90. First "unlimited" means different things to different providers. Some say 22GB of LTE is unlimited then throttled to 3G. Others say 100GB of 5G then deprioritized. So it's very hard to do "Apples to Apples" comparisons.

They'll all offer you at least 20+GB of data, but the quality of that data will vary widely. Also the availability of that data will vary depending on where you are. Then you also get into other features like how much data can be used as a mobile hotspot, and whether that data is throttled.

One thing is for sure when it comes to these plans -- you absolutely get what you pay for. If you go MVNO you will get deprioritized data. So I'd say before you decide on price, figure out what you absolutely need in a cell provider and go from there.

I bought the tracfone with the 1yr service back in june. I transferred my old number to it.

Would I be able to transfer my number to Mint for this deal? Would I need to get another phone?

I attempted to move to Mint Mobile in April. I say attempted, because it never worked. I had an account with AT&T, and wanted to move my existing number over. Mint Mobile includes the instructions on how to do this. Everytime we attempted the switch, AT&T sent us the notification that they were sad to see us go, and that they were in the process of moving the number. However, Mint Mobile immediately said it failed, citing an incorrect account number and information. Not sure how it could have been incorrect if AT&T immediately saw the request. Multiple calls to AT&T customer support, and in-store visits verified that we weren't doing anything wrong, and that Mint Mobile was incorrectly processing our information. Multiple calls to Mint Mobile ended with no help from either a robot, or an uneducated customer service representative. The customer service representatives for Mint Mobile that we encountered were completely hopeless on all sorts of topics and situations. I received no help from them, no matter how high the title the service representative held. We gave up, stuck in a never ending spiral of useless representatives. After two weeks of trying, I gave up, and just stayed with AT&T. Since my number was never transferred, it didn't affect anything.

All those YouTube ads with Ryan Reynolds mention how easy it is to switch to Mint Mobile. Considering I was never able to make the switch, I would argue for some people it will be the total opposite of easy.

I really can't wait for my Mint plan to expire. It seems like such a great deal, but there have been numerous times that text messages were simply never delivered. Simply not worth the savings. I've never thought their reception was bad, but messages saying delivered on the other end and never getting delivered is simply unacceptable. Never had that with a carrier before that I know of.
I started with Mint about a month ago now. Last week had the same problem with text messages not getting delivered/received. Changed to the text app that came with the phone and it solved it. Something up with Google Messages not working well..might be worth a shot.

I just switched from Verizon and (at least as far as coverage in my area goes) I couldn't be happier! I'm getting unlimited everything with speeds that are actually faster than my home wifi (which kinda sucks) for about 1/3rd what I was paying Verizon.

would you be comfortable saying what city you are in? if not, could you generalize? i, for example, am in a college town of about 60,000 about an hour from my state's capital city

If i just signed up for mint a month ago... chances of them retroactively doing this for me?
I signed up about 2 weeks ago and asked and they weren't able to apply this retroactively for me, so I'm guessing it'll be a no.

I just switched and ported my number to Mint today, it took 5 minutes max. I had AT&T prepaid. I called in to get account # and also made sure my pin # was correct. Zip code is also needed for Mint activation, mine was defaulted to somewhere in Texas because I never bothered to change it after AT&T activation. Once you have correct account, pin and zip digits, I don't see how the porting would fail since it's an automated process...

As other commenters have mentioned, it's much better to get this at Target. 5% off all phone cards(and all gift cards!) and no extra fees. Using a Google voice number you can basically double dip this deal twice a year. The promo always happens in December and usually best buy or Target runs something similar in the summer - they have regular sales on mint cards. $7/month is pretty insane for decent phone service. I've done exactly this for years. Really happy mint customer.

Wait what is this google voice number thing. Me and my wife are planning on switching to Mint from t-mobile after seeing that our monthly data usage isn't more than 10gb for each of us. Can you explain how to go about this? Also would this better if we were planning on getting phones to during their black Friday deal at mint
