Does a new customer mean a new email and phone number?

Exaggeration and WAAAY to much hassle to be considered using with family. This is great for one/two ppl household, but if you got 4 lines or so then plenty of prepaid plans that come around $20 per line.
Yeah you have to do this every 3-6 months multiplied by however many phones. You'll definitely be the one setting this up and troubleshooting since most people don't know how to set up Google Voice call forwarding.

Also I don't know if this works for iPhone users who want to continue using their main number with iMessage and FaceTime.

I'm paying $203 with tax and fees for the Mint 5gb plan for the entire year. That's less than $17 a month. I use a Chase Business card for 5% back on phone service so it's just around $193.

Don't buy 4 of these and think you're going to get a year of service, plus $160 in Target gift cards. You only have 45 days to activate each SIM.

Basically, just a new number or port in. You should be able to bypass the IMEI check when you activate.

Quote from thegman230 :
Always new customers. Port your number to google voice, use this new plan to create a throw away number and then forward all calls to that number from google voice. When the 3 minths are up, pop in a new sim, activate and get a new number and then change your forwarding number to that new number and done. Rinse and repeat. You will always be able to use these deals then as a new customer
as a counter to this, don't do this if you value your texting experience at all. Google voice sucks ass. No RCS or any of the decent features from the google messages app. It also seems pretty clunky and loses texts sometimes

Don't know how they can enforce it. No way they can track the sim card number from retailers, unlike those sold directly from Mint website. I recent activated a Mint sim card that I bought from BB two years ago, and it's still good for 3 month, although there's a fine print there like 'activate within 45 days of purchase'.
It's possible it has to be activated (like a gift card)... The item is to small to be activated on the shelf.. (people would probably just steal it..)

This keeps your number your actual number for BOTH outgoing and incoming calls?

Does it expire 45 days after purchase (like mintmobile.com) ?
I used one almost a year after purchasing and it worked. I did have to call to get working though.

Did anyone try activation yet? Did anyone get the extra 3 months that the Mint website is offering?

Quote from Superdawg :
There aren't really many cons. If you lose or break your phone, or you don't want to pay for service for a few days/months, you can still make calls and texts via pc on your Voice number using your google voice account. You do need to set up your browser to allow sound to be played by google. Your number can't be hacked by normal cell phone methods because its an IP number. Always get the best introductory deals from any MVNO. Prank call your friends with your new cell number every 3 months, because you can use either number(voice or MVNO) to call if you chose. The only real downside is putting a sim in your phone slightly more often. But now with esims, even that's kinda moot.
There are a few cons, which I dont think are deal-breakers (I've had Google Voice for years now):
  1. You need an Android phone for seamless experience. On iPhone you need to use the app to make call. This is usually not a huge problem, but it is a PITA especially if you also use Apple Car play (siri-assisted calls/sms goes through phone's primary number)
  2. Some banks (the only one I have trouble with is Chase.. there maybe others) don't do OTPs with Google Voice number. I just use the actual SIM's number for that.
  3. Because you keep switching your real number to take advantage of new-customer offers all the time (you dont have to, but you do if you want cheapest price), you get assigned random numbers that random people have used to register at all kinds of sites. This usually means lots of spam calls. If you have a Pixel phone (or some other spam call filter), this is easily dealt with, but you need to

I still have a google voice number, but these drawbacks now annoy me enough so google voice is no longer my primary. But if your priority is to save money , there is nothing like Google Voice and taking advantage of those new-customer MVNO deals (I've lost count of Mint/Boost/Redpocket deals I've taken advantage of).

What did you say to get them to give the refund. I have been rejected two times by their chat agents, one saying this is a circle offer so can't refund. The other one said we can't apply new offers to old orders. Thanks
I just told them the offer increased by $10 and I'd like to see if they could honor the new promotion and save me the time of going to the store to return and rebuy. He couldn't offer an additional $10 gift card, but for customer satisfaction could refund $10. I had paid with gift card anyway so I'm not sure if that made a difference?

I've had GoogleVoice for almost 15 years and besides GrooveIP back in 2010, I don't ever use an app. I call from the GV number directly from my phone's native dailer or text. Also, we've been doing the Mint deal on multiple phones for a few years and porting our same real number in and out. I've went into detail before on both of these methods and they have been around on SlickDeals for years.

The biggest thing about GV is that it's a VOIP number which many services don't accept as your phone number, so many times you won't be able to receive verification texts and such. So far I've rarely had that issue but when it happens it's annoying. I use my GV less and less since it sometimes pops up as a fraud alert. For example, I can't wire money transfers using a GV number, can't accept Zelle payments with that number, etc...
