Because of this deal I started trying ATT in my area and I see that it has better reception than Verizon in the areas I roam. So it might be a good deal for me. Let's see in few days.

Also if you get this plan dont forget to turn off auto renewal or you will be charged 400 bucks

This is a good price for great service, even if not quite as slick as some of their recent deals.
My one quibble with US Mobile is that they don't seem to offer anything to existing customers. I chatted with them and they were willing to let me walk rather than letting me take advantage of the last deal or offering me anything at all to stay. So switching back and forth between them and Mint or Visible or whatever seems like the best longer term option. USM is my favorite, hands down, but if something else that works well for me is considerably cheaper, I have no loyalty for corporations who show no gratitude toward me.

I've definitely had better reception with both the Verizon and T-Mobile networks than AT&T across many states and cities.

Community Reviews

US Mobile's annual Unlimited Premium plan stands out for strong value when the chosen network fits, with priority data, 100GB hotspot, and 20GB international roaming adding real utility for travelers. Coverage feedback points to big location differences across Dark Star, Warp, and Light Speed, so checking the carrier map closely matters. The main caveats are confusing network naming, Dark Star only port in restrictions, and smartwatch support not being included on this offer. Existing customer pricing and renewal handling also appear inconsistent, so the deal works best when the network and terms line up with your needs.

  • people who need hotspot-heavy use on the AT&T-backed option because commenters mention the premium annual pricing includes large hotspot allowances (e.g., 20GB hotspot in prior annual deals, and one user cites 100GB hotspot on this kind of annual promo).

    Woody1930heyjo

  • buyers who are okay committing to the AT&T (Dark Star) network for a full year because multiple commenters call it a great deal "if you are ok with ATT," and others report usable reception on Dark Star at home (e.g., suburban Philadelphia).

    PurpleCrowd669thegoob143

  • travelers who want included international roaming because commenters say the plan's 20GB international roaming is a "huge convenience" and works pretty seamlessly.

    KaladinStormborn

  • people who want to test coverage before fully committing because commenters say US Mobile offers a free trial (and even suggest using a dummy email to avoid promo issues).

    shauggy

  • households that can use the multi-network add-on to reduce dead zones because commenters say having two networks available helps cover weak areas where one carrier has dead zones/slowdowns.

    FAL

  • people who need Apple Watch cellular on the AT&T (Dark Star) network because commenters say the Apple Watch isn't included on Dark Star and that smartwatch activation requires hoops (and companion watch lines may be limited to Warp/Verizon).

    calvinistvikingSlickSeed229

  • buyers who expect "free network transfers" to be available during the year because commenters dispute that benefit and cite terms that you must remain on Dark Star for the full annual cycle or the discount is voided.

    calvinistvikingshauggy

  • people who live in areas where Dark Star/AT&T performs poorly because commenters report Dark Star and Warp "both kinda suck" in places like San Jose and LA, and others say AT&T didn't work for them and they were later charged full price after switching.

    SKV4mplushy

  • families planning a move who want the most reliable coverage across rural areas because commenters warn AT&T capacity can be horrible in rural areas and say they'd prefer Verizon for a family move.

    asuka

  • existing US Mobile customers hoping for retention pricing because commenters say US Mobile "doesn't seem to offer anything to existing customers" and that they were willing to let them walk rather than apply the last deal or offer retention.

Does US mobile refund in the first 30 days if I don't like this plan or service ?
No, but they do offer a free trial so you can check it out first (use a dummy email though so it doesn't cause promo issues). AT&T also offers a free trial

Here are the terms of the promo which says refer to the original terms :

Looks like the refund policy you quoted is for their Device Protection, not for the service plans. Here's what the USM terms say for their multi-month plans - it says you can only get a refund within the first 7 days, and you can't use more than 1GB of data:

Quote :
Refund policy for multi-month plans:
• Customers can request a refund for a multi-month plan if all the following conditions are met:
• It has been less than 45 days since the plan was purchased
• For new lines, it has been less than 7 days since a new line was activated; for existing lines, it has been less than 7 days since the multi-month plan billing cycle started for the line
• Less than 1 GB of data has been consumed on the plan
• For lines on an unlimited plan that includes roaming, there has been zero usage of any roaming data, talk, or text
If the above conditions are not all met, the plan is non-refundable.
No refunds will be provided if you choose to change your plan part-way through any multi-month plan.

So there seems to be a refund. I was planning to buy and hold in the hopes that there is a better offer in Jan. Otherwise, I plan to activate and use it. So there won't be any usage on my side.

Do I need to port when buying ?

Actually USM everyday price is very good for annual..you can lock prices after renewal by pretend calling to switch for cellphone, wifi, etc for 50% off. Existing customer paying full price is healthy profits . New customer promo lose profits.
Promo rate for 1st year is very common. Use that to your advantage by pretend switching, using google voice routing (voice quality is bad), and get the 2-5 yr price lock with Visible.
Can you elaborate more on this process of "pretend calling" ?

This is isn't the best deal. Recently I activated three lines for $240 each because I added multi network. However, in the middle of December they offered $251 or about that prepaid visa gift card, and monthly charge ended up as $10. So before Christmas deal was better.

I have been with them for a month so far and it is really superior to Visible. Even after the $199 for the first year it goes up to up to $20.75 a month. that ain't bad for great reception and service for customer service people. So at 30 days, I'm very happy. I could not get usable reception in my house until their dark star a t & t. I had metro pcs and visible, both were junk unless on wifi. I used the hotspot a bunch and it was fast and consistent.

There's a difference in offering a low, below cost price to attract a new customer vs offering that price to an existing customer. I assume you understand why this works the way it does. Yes, if it was continuously cheap and better that would be awesome.
but it is! after the year, it only goes up to $249 for the plan I chose, less than 21$ a month, that is good

Same where I live.

AT&T > T-Mobile >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Verizon

We have used H2O Wireless (AT&T network) for years. Very happy with the service they provide. Sadly, they do not offer a cellular watch plan so we will be switching soon.

They mean calling and bluffing that you will change providers to save money if they do not give you a decent renewal deal. The call is real, the threat is the "pretending to leave them if they won't come up with a retention special offer".
This is the same tactic that helps keep your next cycle of cable promotions better than they want to offer you when your current promotion is ending.

I like how they say:

Free Smartwatch Plan*

then you look at the terms and it says not yet supported. Is that even legal?
