General hotspot data is capped at 5 mbps, but "Video streams in SD" means streaming data is capped at 2 mbps. Verified by opening fast.com, which is associated with Netflix. They don't want people running Rokus off a phone hotspot. Can be bypassed with a VPN though.

The major reason for me is priority data compared to Visible's base plan at a very similar price point.

Had Visible for a month and two weeks it sucked horribly. I am in a pretty prominent suburb of Chicago and they literally only have one tower covering the area, speeds were okay, but the latency and connectivity to the tower was a major problem. I would not get text messages all the time, or mine would fail to send regularly. Even when I went into a big suburb like Rosemont the service was just subpar.

Switched to the 3 month of Mint plan and so far have been very happy with it, I am contemplating trying Metro next, but no good deals currently.

I've been using Visible for over a year and can't recommend it enough.
Their customer service is chat based and when I needed them they were easy to contact and ultimately solved my problem (I've read their customer service is Visibles drawback).

Verizon only favors their own MVNO if you pay the premium for Visible+. Maybe actually look INTO the multiple MVNOs and how they operate before you make blanket statements like this.

But if you need Watch support, then Visible is obviously the better option.

The deal posted here is actually standard Visible, not Visible+, but ok.

Tried to sign up for visible+ annual, but of course they only have it for *new* customers right now. Got on the waitlist / notification list. Will cost me $3 more per month than my current combined Visible+Apple watch plan, and that will be a welcome upgrade from my perspective.

Quote from QuixoticOne :
I agree. I was happily anticipating to try the service when I switched due to low quality connections on my other MVNO.
Literally I couldn't get through my first experience of overall service research / account sign-up / settings choices customization / app use / CS contact attempts without encountering MULTIPLE DISTINCT horrible inexcusable problems with their service.

The LEAST of which would basically be 100% inexcusable and indicative of a UX / UI / sysadmin & backend system that is so WRONG and amateurish that 100% no professional company that has a commercial web site that they develop according to even the most minimal standards of functionality with even the most minimal standards of testing / QA would deploy AT ALL yet apparently visible has let these glaring blocker level problems persist for YEARS without addressing them. I discovered that as trying to figure out WTH is going on with my experience I found a large number of identical complaints matching my search keywords on their community forum and other internet blog sites going back 1+ years.

So basically I would never recommend the service to anyone as being even remotely trustworthy that if you do everything right you're not going to fall into some black hole of problem due to visible which you WILL NOT be able
to figure out / fix unilaterally and in that case you WILL NOT have a good experience trying (possibly vainly) to get them to resolve your issue that THEY caused; they obviously JUST DON'T CARE about CS / UX / quality.

Sort of like "russian roulette" I guess if you spin the wheel and take a chance you'll either deeply regret it sooner or later or maybe if you get lucky and don't ever end up with a problem or reason to change ANYTHING after you get it set up well maybe it'll "keep working" indefinitely but, again, good luck if you need support -- you'll need it!

I haven't tried them but my currently most interesting possible carrier to try in the future is USM, personally.

Mint was relatively fine except just some not so good web site stuff and the lack of better regional service / prioritization on the TMO data network was an issue IME.

You seem fun.

I tried the trial and service was bad in my area. South San Jose, CA.
Specifically Communication Hills area and down towards the Kaiser on Cottle. I would get 2-3 bars on average. It would peak at 4 bars sometimes but rarely. I would be at 1 bar more than 4 bars.

Cost wise, this is a good deal if it works in your area. Mint mobile is working good for me so far, but I have to upgrade data plans once i'm done with the 3 month trial i'm on.
