Runs on T-Mobile network for anyone wondering
From BrightPencil276 re: data prioritization:
Data prioritization policies of the carriers and the MVNOs that use their networks

Verizon

Verizon uses 3 QCI classes – 7, 8, and 9.

QCI 7 is reserved exclusively for Verizon Frontline customers so this priority level may as well not exist for those of us who aren't first responders.

QCI 8 is given to the business Plus 5G, business Pro 5G, consumer postpaid plans (other than Welcome Unlimited), all of Xfinity Mobile's plans, all of Spectrum Mobile's plans, Lexvor, and MobileX. US Mobile's Warp 5G SIM offers QCI 8 data on 5G devices only. Visible+ has QCI 8 as well until 50GB of LTE/5G Nationwide data is used (5G UW is unlimited QCI 8). Total Wireless' Total 5G Unlimited and Total 5G+ Unlimited plans have unlimited priority data included.

QCI 9 goes to everything else. The Start 5G business plan, branded prepaid besides the Unlimited Plus plan, Visible's base plan, US Mobile Warp 5G when on an LTE only device, Mobi, and all other prepaid companies that use Verizon's network are known to assigned to this QCI. Anyone who uses their premium data bucket on Verizon's brands will be moved to QCI 9.


AT&T

AT&T uses QCI 6, 7, 8, and 9.

QCI 6 is reserved for FirstNet customers (with primary status), Business Unlimited Premium (only data that qualifies for Business Fast Track, the rest is QCI 7), and some corporate responsibility plans.

QCI 7 is assigned to Business Unlimited Premium as well as Unlimited Premium PL, Unlimited Extra EL, and AT&T Prepaid Unlimited Max Plus customers who pay $7 for AT&T Turbo. FirstNet extended primary plans get QCI 7 as well.

QCI 8 is assigned to Business Unlimited Advanced, Unlimited Extra EL, Unlimited Premium PL, Prepaid Unlimited Max, Prepaid Unlimited Max Plus, Cricket More, as well as plans offered by H2o, Consumer Cellular, and PureTalk. US Mobile's Dark Star offering has an addon to bump it to QCI 8 from QCI 9.

QCI 9 is assigned to Business Unlimited Starter, the base Unlimited plans for both the postpaid and AT&T Prepaid brands, Cricket Core, other known MVNOs, and all AT&T brands once their premium data buckets have been exhausted.


T-Mobile

T-Mobile uses QCI 6, 7, and 9 for phone plans.

QCI 6 goes to all branded plans, both postpaid and prepaid, besides those with Essentials in the name. Google Fi has QCI 6 as well.

QCI 7 is applied to Essentials branded plans as well as all other known MVNOs.

QCI 8 is not used for phone plans, it's used for on device hotspot and for data only plans with 30GB of more data.

QCI 9 is for those who have exhausted the data in their buckets. T-Mobile's Mobile Internet 30GB plan is also QCI 9.

Infomobile is running a 15GB for $125/yr. Came out to me at $150 with taxes (10.25% sales + other). Verizon or T-Mobile. It's a very stripped down service though


This sems like a good deal if you could be happy with T-Mobile and need to go to Canada and or Mexico regularly.

Unlimited everything at Total Wireless. Unlimited 5 Mbps hotspot. Free Disney+, no ads. BYOD, Verizon network. 5 year rate lock.

If you stay on the plan, use referral(for joining), Total Rewards, discounted retail refill cards, it will be less than $20/mo. even for the top plan.

Been on top plan for 6 months. Total out of pocket so far, $120. That's without using discounted refill cards, without hustling referrals.

If you're the type that can hustle up ongoing referrals, even pay well less than all that.

According to Ultra Mobile's Terms & Conditions, you must activate your service within 45 days of purchase. Failure to do so may result in the forfeiture of your service.

Great info, out of curiosity where does Boost Mobile fall into the QCI ratings on multiple carriers they can use?
