Edit: As expected, now that this is public info they patched it. The zip code check is still client side so it seems like it's possible to bypass still but I did not investigate any further.

Original post below:

Originally I didn't want to make this method too easy because it'll be easy for them to patch out, but now I'm getting a lot of DMs and people asking for gifts for referrals, and that's not really something I wanted to see so I'll post the exact method for less tech savvy people to use (keep in mind that they can still easily patch this).

I can't seem to edit the wiki (I guess because I'm a "new user" despite being on here for 9 years; maybe because my reputation is too low). So if anyone else wants to edit this in, go for it.

This method is provided AS IS; USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

So the method is simple:
1. Use a modern, desktop browser; I can't be bothered to write/transpile this to support older browsers
2. Open dev tools (for chrome it's just F12, for others you may have to google it)
3. Go through sign up. For EVERY page that you see zip code, paste the code below into the devtools and press enter. This includes the initial sign up page + address page + final payment page.
const original = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window, 'fetch');
Object.defineProperty(window, 'fetch', Object.assign({}, original, {
value: function (path, options) {
if (typeof path !== 'string' || path !== '/api/authCheck') {
return original.value.apply(this, arguments);
}
const bodyObj = JSON.parse(options.body);
bodyObj.zip = '33125';
options.body = JSON.stringify(bodyObj);
return original.value.call(this, path, options);
}
}));

Remember that this resets every time the page changes, so you have to re-paste it.

If this worked for you, I ask that you share your 2 referrals with the community and upvote this message.

Thanks!

Edit: do the code above before you press any kind of continue or submit button.

Is this a sneaky crypto ad? I remember hearing about Helium in the news a while back, and it was about how they were using crypto to incentivize running Helium nodes. Is that still going on or have they pivoted to a non-crypto model?

This doesn't require you to mine, buy, invest, shill, or do anything with cryptocurrency.
The crypto stuff is optional. Only enable if you want that.

Just treat it like a super cheap phone plan.

anybody else feel like running two esims is burning battery faster than the usual voice+sms+data single psim or esim?
Really hope they can iron that out down the road. I'll deal with it for now, considering it's still unmatched for the price

Yeah, they should probably come to your house and clean it too for $5 a month.

Can I use this with an iPad?
I added the data only eSIM to my iPad and it does register. Haven't gotten it to work yet though for some reason.

Looking to sign up via the helium website; however, when I am at the "where are you based screen" nothing happens when I input my address and click on submit address. I have tried via mobile phone, desktop and even had a friend try on his end.

Is this by invite only?

Thanks for your sharing. However, for some reasons I can't use your code. I got an error message something like "could not verify network " at password creation step. I had to use random Miami address to set up account.

thanks for this. i entered every time the page changed. what can you do so payment is accepted at the stage of signup where credit card is entered where payment is declined or when it says "a processing error occurred"
will you incorporate a fix for that and re-post wth the update

cash app card doesn't have a zip code so 33125 was entered an payment was declined.
