I had total Wireless in the past and when I left them I told them I would share my story. Total Wireless stole from me, okay they attempted to steal from me.

I had four phones on total Wireless they all joined at different times so I paid four different times of the month. Total Wireless consolidated the four payments into one, in a new single once a month payment plan. It's fine it's what other companies have done, if they do it right. To do it right they would either needed to prorate my bill so I'm not paying for the same days that I had already paid for, or just eat the cost. They chose to make me pay for the same days that I'd already paid for. For example I already paid on the first for the entire month then on the 15th they charged me for an entire month again. When I called customer service the only thing they could do was apologize, I even got apologized to by a manager. During that call I handed my wife the phone and I called my credit card company explain the situation and got a credit back to my card. After that call with the credit card company my wife was still being apologized to by total Wireless. I promised three things to the guy apologizing to me. Number one I will get my money back, number two I will leave their company, and number three I will share my story with as many people that'll listen. I fulfilled my promise.

Also I recommend staying away from this company unless you're technical because basically there's no customer service or support, so you're on your own.

My point is if you get this service you are on your own.

I use this for a work line, deprioritization can get pretty noticeable during large events but it's been fine otherwise. The real deal here is the +$10/mo for an unlimited tablet line, which you qualify for with this voice line.

I already have the service with three lines in the bill at current is around 115, and we get Disney plus but, I think I we'll have to swap to a different service to get the price really down.

got a link? Tried looking on their website but couldn't find it; the IMEI checker on the BYOP page is getting stuck at 10%...

I doubt I've ever looked that delighted while my retro 80's jacket was falling off, so this must be awesome.

Only the Base 5G plan is deprioritized.
Base 5G Unlimited Deprioritized Standard 5G (No Ultra Wideband)
If you are on the Total 5G or Total 5G+ plans, you are not deprioritized.

Don't do it. Total wireless is a scam! They dealers are unregulated. They too stole from me and are refusing to help me because the dealer used my phone before activating it and my account was flagged as being fraudulent. I paid in advanced for 3 months and they canceled after 2. Stay away
