Total Wireless: Bring Your Own Device, Get Total MAX 5G BYO Unlimited Plan
$20/Month ($30 1st Month)
w/ Auto Pay + Keep Your Numberat Total Wireless
Top Comments
Visible +pro annual plan for $225 has the same unlimited priority data, but also gives you unlimited hotspot at 15 mbps, a drastic improvement. Also, Apple Watch line is also included. It also works out to be a bit cheaper per month roughly $18.75 instead of the $20/month for total.
Visible also has a 25% statement credit off with some chase cards, with a max discount of $15. If you stack that with a $20 referral code from a current customer, you can get a $35 off the annual plan so it'll only be $190 for the year, or just under $16/month net.
Hard to beat that unless verizon is really bad around you.
Community Reviews
Total Wireless's $20 BYOD plan stands out for unlimited priority data on Verizon, unlimited hotspot at 5 Mbps, and international roaming that can cover Mexico, Canada, Europe, Asia, and about 10 GB abroad. The 5 year price lock is a major draw, though the fine print appears to protect the base rate rather than the discounted $20 offer. Setup can be smooth, but eligibility and checkout often hinge on a true new account and a qualifying port, and the first month may show $30 before dropping to $20. Customer service and billing problems are the main concern, so it fits best if you want a low monthly rate and can avoid needing much support.
Common Questions (5)
Yes. The plan includes unlimited hotspot at 5 Mbps and international roaming, with 10 GB of roaming data mentioned in the thread. It also covers many countries, including Mexico, Canada, Europe, and Asia.
Usually no. Straight Talk and other Verizon value-brand phones are excluded from the BYOD promo, and phones purchased from TracFone were also reported as ineligible. Activating on a different qualifying unlocked phone may work, but moving the line to the excluded phone can remove the discount.
No. The first month is $30, then it drops to $20 per month after Auto Pay. The $20 price is the ongoing rate, not the initial charge.
No, the offer is limited to one line per account. Multi-line service is available, but the promo pricing does not apply to all lines in the same account.
Yes. It is for new customers only, and Total Wireless treats a new customer as someone who has not activated Total Wireless or Total by Verizon service within the last 90 days. Existing customers generally need to port out and back in to qualify.

$20 a month. Is this for real?

My beef with Total Wireless is my RCS stop working after visiting Portugal (the byebye plan doesn't have the international roming, so I used a Airalo eSIM) last month. Getting the dreaded 4001 and 4002 errors, Gemini has helped me more their phone, online support. I'm still having issues and waiting out the 2 weeks with RCS being disabled and hopefully Google's Jibe servers can recognize my number again when I re-enable it.
