Quote from SUCHaDEAL :
not sure if US Mobile also has additions tax/fees on top of the $199, but if they do, Mint is the winner on Price alone. Does US Mobile also have the generous hotspot allotment like MINT does?

It is not as easy as you make it sound....

With USMobile, you need to look at the plan and the provider and then see what it offers you.

The 199 or 299 plan includes all taxes and fees... you can add like $25 - $30 to Mint.

For the TMOBILE network both the 199 plan and Mint use the same prioritization but mint mobile gives you better international. ANd the 299 plan has a MUCH better international and much better hotspot.


OK to answer you questions... USING TMOBILE on USMobile....
$199 using Light Speed (Tmobile) you get 10GB of HOTSPOT and 70GB of total high speed.
Mint gives you... 20GB of hotspot BUT only 50GB of highspeed. PERSONALLY, I have never needed more then 35GB.

I do too, but still have to compare the actual price to what you're up against. $18 is still less than $20 or $25.
But when you consider taxes and fees... USMobile becomes the cheapest.

But does not matter what anyone hates... MintMobile, Visible and USMobile are the three best prepaids IMHO. And all three have similar fees. With USMobile being the cheapest then Mint and Finally Visible.

Well, if you want a decent deal on a phone, you can get the US Mobile annual Starter plan for $199 (or Premium for $299) and get a Pixel 10 for $250. I just posted that deal. But it doesn't go live until tomorrow 11AM ET
This is NICE. WOW. I need this deal in one year from now but with a Pixel 11.

Really considering this. Has anybody been on native T-Mobile and then switch to mint? Is there different priority or noticeable speed difference?
There will always be a difference because Mint customers are second in line as opposed to actually paying T-Mobile directly for service.

It is regular price afterwards BUT...

They usually make you talk to customer service if you want to leave and they usually give you something to stay and I have heard people claim (not many) that they received this promotion even though they were a customer. They offered me 3 months of free service and I took it in the day.

But to avoid all that... I just switch between Mint and Visible and if you are so worried to have the Tmobile network then switch from Tmobile to USMobile $199 per year taxes and fees in (cheaper then Mint) and it is the identical prioritization as Mint so it should be the identical service except 10GB hotspot out of 70GB total VS Mint which is 20GB hotspot out of 50GB total and USMobile has better international usuage.

This is "PREPAY"... so lets say your on month number 11 and you are thinking about next year THEN you can buy what you want for the next year.

So you are not stuck... but it is PRE pay so if you pay and change your mind your are shit out of luck.

This or a year of us mobile for $199? I thought the Verizon plan on us mobile was not prioritized lower like other secondary carriers. I'm looking to add a second line within days and deciding between these two.
  • Mint has taxes extra I think.
  • Us mobile allows you to switch between all three carriers. At&t or verizon might have better coverage in your area.
  • All these mvnos basic plans are deprioritized data but that should matter in crowded areas. If you are such places regularly you should get some non deprioritized plan at us mobile instead.

got this from Mint website AI chat - You have up to 45 days from the date of purchase to activate your Mint Mobile SIM or eSIM. After 45 days, the SIM kit will no longer be eligible for activation or refund.

I'm looking to switch and to Mi t or US Mobile. I've been with T-Mobile forever and need to leave for my next billing cycle begins on the 3rd of next month. Since my s24 ultra is unlocked and straight from Samsung I could use any network and not stuck with T-Mobile so I'm debating about trying Us mobile and their recommended provider which I believe is AT&T but now I'm seeing some people say that the data may be slower and non prioritized versus picking T-Mobile.

If you're happy with TMo coverage, Mint is the way to go.

Don't know what plan you had on Tmobile, but Mint seems to deprioritize you compared to some of Tmobile's plan. It should be no big deal and I have not had too bad of an experience.

Regarding USMobile.... this is just my opinion... you have TWO choices $199 per year or $299 per year. For Tmobile's network... it does not matter which one you choose since it is the same prioritization which is the same as Mint Mobile's BUT AT&T and Verizon's priortization is too low IMHO, unless you get the $299 plan.

Regarding what you should buy... which network is the best around where you live or work... and choose that network.

And Regarding USMobile... depending on which network you decide on will determine the size of you hotspot and amount of high speed data... so it is different between networks.

Personally, I have only switched between Mint Mobile and Visible and I have done this twice. But I have no issues with USMobile. USMObile seems to be better for international data, especially the $299 per year plan.

i think most post talk about Mint is T mobile and vise versa isn't really using the T mobile to the full extend.
what's really set T mobile apart from other carriers (and from MVNo) is the included INTERNATIONAL data and text. yes you could get 3rd party esim and whatnot, but be able to receive bank text and have a 15G or 5G included international data every month (unlimited at capped speed) is a godsend if you travel much.

if you don't travel, you may stay for the netflix and what not, but those netflix and T mobile Tuesday savings, unless you gradfathered in (which you won't need free netflix to justify staying with T mobile), severely undermined by how much you could save by moving to MVNOs.
