1. Get one number for phone calls and texts ONLY. You are known to others (friends, banks, insurance companies...) by that number. Use a very cheap plan that has little to no data for it.
2. Get another number for data ONLY. Switch to the cheapest you can find every a few months. You are always a new user because you don't need to port in your number for it.
Not if you have a "dual SIM" phone.

With two SIMs active in one phone, you can use one for calls/texts, and the other for data.

What do you do after the third month?
First I use privacy.com to create a one-time credit card so boost mobile doesn't charge me for auto-renewal. I buy multiple 3-month plans and create a new boost mobile account after each 3-month period. It's a hassle since you have to use a new email address and boost mobile account, but beats paying for a full price internet when I don't really need it.

I don't know why you need to enter credit card details... Are you really buying this plan from BoostMobile website? That is not advisable.
Buy it from Walmart, BestBuy or Target and you won't need to enter payment info when activating plan.

I'm pretty sure you have to enter credit card details even if you use this 3-month plan. boost mobile wants you to renew afterwards so a credit card is needed when you activate this plan. I don't buy from Boost mobile, I buy these 3-month cards from Amazon.com.

There is no need to enter credit card details, unless they changed something since 3 months ago when I did this.

Any recommendations on the cheapest call and text plan? Thanks 👍

Tello has a $8/mo unlimited call plan, but 300min/$6 is enough for me. Tello allows you to manually renew anytime with the same or different plan should you go over. It's on T-mobile network.

Redpocket has a $60 annual plan for 500min, 500 texts & 500MB /mo. I believe you can choose T-mobile/AT&T network though. So, less flexibility with the plan but more with networks.

I actually have 3 plans on 3 different networks. One has a lot of data, the others two only 500MB - 1GB data just in case. To me, peace of mind for ~$10/mo is great. Definitely useful in national parks.

No need as you say. I activated a week ago, it seemed like I had to enter the CC info, but they weren't required fields, only gave me a warning for not inputting, and let me activate sim.

5gb per month... you can also change this to an annual plan ($170ish per year including taxes) at the end of the 3 months.

I've been on this plan for 2 years and it's quite solid. AT&T towers and no apparent slowdowns. You can use the BoostOne app to easily get at least $10 per month in credit towards your bill (takes about a minute per day). In the past, you could easily get $30 per month in credits, so I've got about $400 in current credits which should cover me for the next few years.

If you ever run into a situation where you need more data in a given month, you can add an 'Add on Pack' of data (it's like $10 for another 5gb).

Can you buy this, then not activate until January? Got the iPhone SE deal and have to wait until January for it to unlock before I can use this.

This is T-Mobile, not AT&T as someone said above (Boost do both, but if you're buying it in Target/Walmart/etc it's TMob)

Boost do NOT offer Wifi calling on T-Mobile, so if you want/need Wifi calling, skip them.

Boost generally sucks when it comes to support. Consider yourself warned...

Helium will be launching a nationwide plan in the coming weeks. $20 for 30gb data per month. Slows down after that. This plan is cheaper but not significantly so. And the customer service I've been told is subpar with boost.
