Requires credit card even though they won't charge it

Good deal if Mint Mobile doesn't screw it up. I downloaded their app, signed up for the SIM on the app, they mailed it to me, I tried to activate it through the app with a new number, and that's when it went to sh!t.

The acitvation failed and I was told to call CS. Calling CS resulted in them activating a *7-day* trial with *1/4 GB* of data. When I pointed out to Mint Mobil CS that I was supposed to get 30-days with 10 GB of data they were very apologitic but said the best they could do was give me a $15 discount when I acitvated a paid line.

Obviously a $15 discount on something that I can't try out is pointless; I'll never have the opportunity to test the service out.

So they've managed to make a 50/50 possible future customer a 100% future non-customer.

Quote from skywaytp :
As I mentioned earlier, this is a trial number no matter e-sim or sim. It's virtual until you decide to go with a real plan. No text back from Mint and you can't set up an account for it. Nothing wrong with your phone! 🙂
Kind of a weird thing for Mint to make a point of telling you "this is your number," and sending a "welcome to Mint" text to the number, if you don't really have a designated number. They also tell you that if you want to make permanent the number you supposedly have by paying for service, you can do it through the Mint app -- which that user wouldn't be able to log into. It just doesn't really add up to me.

Credit where credit is due: after multiple phone calls with two CSR's, and two chat sessions with different reps, I've now got the 30-day trial with 10 GB I signed up for. I think my last chat where I sent a photo of the 30-day trial SIM packaging is what broke the dam.

So, while it shouldn't have taken 4 different attempts on my part, Mint Mobile did get this fixed eventually.

Wrong ACT code, can't activate.
Is it too late for activation?
Physical SIM cards must be activated by 11:59pm PST on 3/1/2023 to receive the full 30-day trial

Is your MINT working after 7 days?

Finally got activated and it's 7-day 10GB trial. Probably it's just bug of 30-day? Mint 7-day trial was not 10GB.
