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.

If you go to an MVNO, by definition, you're a more cost-sensitive customer, and as such, a lower margin client for whatever provider you select. As such - I don't think it's fair to assume you're going to get the best service + the best features + the best CS.... At best, you could have two of these, not all of them.
Given the price point, and my personal (note emphasis on 'personal' - not reflective of all experiences out there) experience with US Mobile, I can confidently say that it's one of the better MVNO out there (especially with the ability to teleport to any of the big 3 networks). Their CS has also been extremely prompt to engage via reddit, phone, and email.
TL;DR: if you want a premium dealership experience, shop with Ferrari and Lambo, not Ford or Toyota. You'll pay evidently more.... but that doesn't mean you're getting a more reliable car in the end.....

Truth be told, I just discontinued it starting next month because it just wasn't worth it to me. Did some re budgeting due to job change and determined it wasn't worth it any longer. I had service on it for about 8 months, I maybe used it standalone without my phone 4 times total.
Just my opinion but I don't see service on a watch as worth it unless you're an avid runner or aren't allowed to have your phone where you often go.

Family was on Red Pocket GSMA tough, and they are happy with Warp.
