Data prioritization: I live in a semi-rural area, so the vast majority of the time this wasn't an issue. However, occasionally on weekends when people were home my phone data would slow to a crawl. Where it became untenable was during power outages (including lengthy ones during natural disasters). My phone data was literally useless. I couldn't even check the weather apps. This was my #1 reason for switching to an MVNO that included priority data.
Fees: US Mobile charges you the stated price, inclusive of taxes and fees. Mint's price was much higher than expected due to taxes and what seemed like extraneous fees.
So far I have much preferred US Mobile. Even though I have to use the Verizon network (slower data speeds) in order to get priority data, I haven't had any issues and it's still plenty fast. During the last major power outage I had zero issues with data. I plan to keep them when it comes time to renew.

I really want to leave ATT. I pay over 60 a month.
You have to get a new number? That isn't going work, I'm trying port from ATT too!
The only times I see any kind of bonus was $15 off renewal (which is nothing considering the price increase from buying the SIM from Best Buy); and once to sign up for the 12-month plan and get $120 off the 4GB tier (now 5GB) -- which still made it the regular $15.
This past summer I stayed when they gave me a bonus to go along with the $90 referral I earned. They emailed a link but it wouldn't show up in my account so I had to call their dreaded customer service. But in the end after tax and all of their junk fees, it was $72 for 6 months on the 15GB plan.
They would not release my phone number or give me any account info without me sending them my PASSPORT! When I said no way, so they sent me a link (to seem legit) to some shady site called something like "verifyyourself.us" and told me to upload one of the options there -- again, passport, driver license, SSN card. NONE of this would verify the name or phone number on my US Mobile account.
Told them screw you, keep the number and went back to Mint Mobile. Sent texts to everyone in my contact list with my new number.
It was already suspicious of choosing the name "US" Mobile and putting the logo of the eagle and flag to seem US based when they are not. Now these random people in a call center on the other side of the world want my passport uploaded to this bootleg website. Nah.
