Seems like they have raised all their prices on the unlim plans. Even with taxes and fees now included they have downgraded the perks and raised the monthly plan prices.

To get that $25 gift card remember you have to subscribe for 2 additional months after the free month. So I guess you could think of it as port in a number and have three months of service for the price of one ($25).

Not a deal at all since it was 100 day free trial before. This is now cut to 45 days and you have to subscribe for 2 months more to get the $25 which negates 1 month

can't activate U.S Mobile's Wi-Fi-calling on my Samsung unlock S22 Ultra plus. customer service is useless. They said VZ treated them as a step son. I can use activate wifi calling on Visible and Mobile X though, both of them are on VZ network.

IMHO 100 days free trial was way better than this deal. That trial itself was like worth $50-$75. I am currently on this trial for 60+ days now.
Regarding service, no complains at all. It has been great so far. Great customer service and excellent Verizon coverage.

Biggest difference vs the $25 plan from Visible:

Visible:
-Unlimited hotspot
-Always deprioritized

US Mobile:
-No hotspot
-Priority data as long as you have a 5G device. You don't have to be connected to 5G for priority, just have a capable phone.
-$25 regular price. Visible's $25 plan is technically a $30 plan with a recurring $5 discount (which can be rescinded in the future).

no hotspot is a deal breaker plus I agree 100 day free trial was much better. I didnt take the 100 day one because of no hotspot

1. What kind of speeds on cellular data are you getting?
2. Is your device 5G and thus supposedly on "priority" data on USM Verizon?
3. How do those speeds compare to what you might get if you were directly a Verizon customer (i.e. not on a MVNO). Thanks!!

I started on this 45 day trial last week coming over from T-Mobile (since T-Mobile is now asking for only debit cards or bank accounts to link to get Autopay discounts - I'm not doing that). So far US Mobile service has been fine, but on my 2021 model Moto G Stylus 5G I was not getting 5G showing up at the top of the phone screen - I was only getting 4G LTE. The speeds were still decent - 70 down and 8 or so up most of the time - but I was wondering why I was not getting 5G.

I got on a chat with US Mobile this morning, and after several minutes working with Mahad, I could see 5G on my phone. I haven't run into any dead spots that I can tell here in South Carolina, and their chat on the website has pretty quick response for me so far. I had to chat with them last week because I had a problem porting in, but after several minutes they had me up and going with very little delay in service.

One thing I would like to mention before you judge below numbers is that I have been using this service on Oneplus 8. It has 5G but does not have C-band or mmWave radios so my experience is based on Sub-6 5G performance.
1. I have been getting between 50-200Mbps download on 5G. I once got over 200Mbps on 4G LTE
2. Yes, I do get priority data since I am using a 5G capable phone. Data works in most congested areas. I was able to Hotspot and WFH all day when Xfinity was doing 10G network upgrade in my neighborhood.
3. AFAIK, both USMobile and Verizon are on same priority. You might get better speeds if you have C-band and mmWave supported device.
