I might get downvoted into oblivion for this, but I'll chime in with my opinion.

I have had poor customer service experiences with U.S. Mobile. For example, they lost my number for about 4 weeks during a simple port. The only thing that they did to make up for it was offer me $5 off for a few months. And, they kept bragging about how great their customer service was when they communicated with me. This issue was a pretty big inconvenience for me, and I was surprised at how poorly they handled it (given their supposed reputation for good CS).
I also find that they sneakily raise prices or take away features.
Additionally, their subreddit brigades anyone who raises valid complaints.
I don't trust them as a company and find that their CS cannot handle certain issues with any sense of urgency.

I am using Redpocket 200min/200M $30/360day plan on a Galaxy 6 LTE watch. It works standalone but I used a Samsung phone to set it up.

With the watch only plan, can one choose which of the 3 networks to use? Currently on T-Mobile and although that works fine for cell phones, the watch coverage for a child is not great and his friends on AT&T have much better coverage so might be a good idea to move just the watch from my TMO account to this one on AT&T or Verizon.
It's only available on USM verizon network, and you have to have a USM phone plan currently, companion watch plan, uses same # as the phone. Stand alone # coming next week they say, I'm betting you'll still need a phone plan with them. Att support they say mabe Q2 next year. I'm not aware of any T-mobile mvno that offers apple watch plans.

Thinking about switching my kids' watch line over from t-mobile. because total wireless did not provide standalone watch line, so we left the kid's watch line behind. seems only thing is that you have to pay for full year upfront.
You can pay by the month but it costs more. although I don't know, I'd be surprised if you will be able to buy a watch plan without having a USM plan, I don't know of anyone that allows that.

This and one more serious question, what are the benefits of having cellular connection on a smartwatch? I presume that will be with our phones 24 by 7 anyway

Call, text facetime without having your phone with you. I see some jog, run, easier with out toting a phone.

Without wifi access or the phone present, there is no access to send/receive data. Texts/emails/facetime/tracking are all unavailable. The watch is merely a watch other than emergency call access.

They always allow you to stay on your current plan so no issue if they do offer new plans with different options and prices. I have had zero issues that couldn't be resolved in a 5 minute chat. N=1 but very satisfied.

Truphone offers a stand-alone watch plan and used T mobile for that. It's $99 for annual plan with them.

I find the level of comprehension interesting in these apple threads. The targeted personality demographic hasn't charged in decades from what I'm seeing.

What is the benefits from this if you have to have a separate number from your mobile phone if you don't already have a plan with them? Can I still receive texts and stuff from my iPhone even though they watch will have a different number but has already been paired with my iphone?
