I'm finally dumping post-paid AT&T because I'm paying like $155 for 2 lines and I don't use much data (almost always 10gb-12gb, with an occasional 20gb month) and I almost never travel.

Phones are iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 - both use e-sim.

I'm looking at Mint ($35 a month, T-Mobile), Visible+ ($35 a month, Verizon) or Boost Infinite ($35 a month, AT&T.)

Anyone use a MNVO or prepaid services they can recommend? (Post pay is fine too.)

especially if there's coverage where you live

but I had Simple Mobile for a while, and idk how much this is the case still

but my isse with mvnos is that when I was in a congested area like a stadium, or maybe out in the boonies where everyone is on one tower

my data would get deprioritized so it would be slow / capped even if I had a strong signal.

I've used t-mobile prepaid for years, mostly bc I have plan that doesn't exist anymore in terms of...I think unlimited hotspot data? I forget

the downside with having t-mobile (pre or post paid) is that they get hacked like every six months and leak all your data, so


www.engadgethd.com - the other stuff i'm looking at

If they do, you can get unlimited talk/text/web for $30 a month. It runs off of Verizon's service and as of yet I've had no issue with it.

At one point if you signed up for one phone plan with them, you could get 12 months free of another phone line (don't know if they still offer that, this was in the summer).

I have it turned on my my mother's house.

I looked into it - it's pretty much the same as Boost Infinite but $5 more a month.

The backup plan is to go to Boost Infinite and if it stinks port over to AT&T prepaid (which I can't do now - AT&T postpaid won't allow you to port into AT&T prepaid.)

Spectrum still has the 2 lines for $29.99, I think I'm going to look into that.

I pay $1860 for 2 lines, unlimited talk and like 20gb data (with rollover.)

Spectrum would be $360 a year (plus some taxes?) for the first year - with a data cap of 20GB a months (then they throttle) and then $720 a year after.

I pay a bit more because I brought a Pixel, but taxes are included in that price.

It is $29.99 for 2 phones, unlimited talk and text and 30GB a month data for each phone before throttling.

It's Verizon and the 5G Ultra Wideband worked in my neighborhood so I'm getting 400Mbps.

Thanks for suggesting it.

If you're on wifi 24/7 grab a text plus membership for $5 per year.

I use Tello. Not a high usage guy, so it works for me. The unlimited data plan $29- after 25GB, the 5G drops to 2G...so there's that.
So far no issues with calling and texting.

My bill routinely costs around just under $19, but I make sure to use Wi-fi as the bill does get higher the more data is used.

One of the good things from listening to Joe Rogan's podcast when I did roughly 10 or so years ago was hearing of that service. Saved me a ton of money over the years for sure.

I think after reading suggestions that we're going to try Boost Infinite.

Mainly because they use AT&T and T-Mobile towers, and that they 25 a month plans seems to cover everything we need. It won't have the *super fast* network, but I don't need that - and if I do it seems to be only another $10 to add.


I also liked that they provide a step-by-step guide : https://help.boostinfinite.com/docs/pre-activation-checklist and https://help.boostinfinite.com/docs/number-transfer-att
