I had Mint for one year until about 6 months ago. Two things made me switch to US Mobile: data prioritization and extra fees significantly increasing the price at renewal.

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.

Not really! There is a $25 "recovery fee" and other fees which might bring the mint deal within a few dollars of the visible one

When you go to this page, it states at the bottom T&C this is only for new customers. If you login to your account and try to find the discounted plan it is non-existent. If you know a workaround please let us know. Thanks.

I am waiting on my Redpocket also. I guess it's best to start looking 90 days ahead of time
Same here but I think we can just return the deal to eBay, right? Just need to pay shipping cost for SIM card. Did I miss anything? Thanks!

In the past I've referred a friend when the unlimited plan was $45 (regularly $90). After they activated and were activated for 15 days, I got my referral bonus of $90, the full price.

If I refer a friend and they take this current deal for 12 months at $180, will I get a referral bonus of $360?

I got the AMEX offer on two cards, can we split the payment to two cards? Thanks
Try adding both. I added to one and it doesn't let me add to the other. If you have entirely separate account logins, might work!

Not sure why someone would pick this instead of actual T-Mobile $15 months/plan which you can get refill cards from Target with %15 off..

There's a fee for porting, like $10 or something. Just for anyone who's considering doing the same.
$20 to port into Google, $3 to port out.

I tried Mint when they first started years ago and I could not get a usable data connection. It's still deprioritized, but is it still horrendous? I have Google Fi now so I know I have have excellent T-Mobile connection, but it's so expensive.

Mainly the AmEx offer and additional referral -- either through cash back or a "friend" referral.


The refill cards 15% off would be $180-27=$153,
vs
The AmEx offer $180-45AmEx-90referral when renewed=$45...even with $25 tax/fees it's still $83 less.

Where do you see $15/mo T-mobile plans?
The lowest I see is $25/mo per line

how are you able to add the offer to both of your cards (under one online account ID)? I can't add both offers to my two cards bc I get an error saying that it's already added to one card.
I believe my wife is the primary account holder on one of the cards

As others have already noted, beware Mint's Taxes and Fees are horrifying and significantly increase the price.

Thanks OP. Just ordered! Moving from Redpocket GSMA to this. Total $208. Cheaper than Redpocket 12GB, 360 days deal. At least I've the option of paying for roaming when I'm on biz travel.
So you had to pay recovery fee?
