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.

What is the best way to get this for three lines (family account)? Do I need to add three promotions to one order ?

I've been with Mint Mobile a long time (7 years) and no go talking with Retention Department to get this promotional plan. The only offered 4 months ($30/mon) credit toward standard Unlimited annual plan ($360 - $120 = $240 + fees, taxes). Looks like I'll be switching to US Mobile when my annual plan finishes up end of Jan.

Do you have to start using this as soon as you order it? My wife's current annual plan (Boost Mobile) is up at the end of January.

The absolute worst customer service in existence with this shite company.
Absolutely agree. I got a $180 year prepaid plan, but somehow it got switched month to month so I burned through the 180 and they started charging me monthly. After hours of waiting on hold they told me I was SOL.

I also have been hopping from New Customer Deal to New Customer Deal with Mint Mobile + Google Voice. I got a warning SMS and Email today:

Mint Mobile: We detected that you've recently activated onto a promotional offer exclusive to new customers, which is against our Acceptable Use Policy. If you continue to buy and activate additional new customer offers, we reserve the right to adjust your plan to a 5GB plan.

Enshittification continues. They were great for years, and mere months after getting acquired, start pulling stuff like this.

I clicked on it. I do not see the answer.

I know you have to purchase by 1/2/25, but I'm asking how long you can wait to actually start using your first month?

Nevermind, I found it. You have 45 days from the time you receive the SIM.

I was a mint customer over 1.5 years ago. Can I get this deal now? Also is it 180$ flat for one year? Or are there other monthly charges?

Call customer service and tell them you want to leave. Just go this offer after 5 years plus with mint!!!
Why call and give then any chance, Seems you would think after 5 years like me you just leave for better service and customer care others have unlimited at 20$ monthly why would you or I stay?

$25+ recovery fee plus ~$4 tax kill this deal.
There are not such fees buying from Best Buy, but Best Buy is not running the same promotion at this time. Let's see if they also have it later this month.

I am an existing customer and got this same deal via email, $180 for 12 months of the 5gb plan. Going to do that instead of the usual $75 for 3 months I do now.
