I've had it for over a year and I did a trial and paid for a year. Less than 35 a month for unlimited and I use all the data I want, ran out once and it still worked for basic stuff. I also love that I know I don't have to worry about a bill for a year or more.
@@dannac_8888 Because no one really does Unlimited for 30 dollars a month. After you use 35 GB it still works just not as a fast. It changed recently to where you go from 5G/4G to 3G when you use all your high speed, I've only done that once and that was me trying.
Been using Mint for 3 years and their service has gotten so bad with no tech support, only customer service reps faking it and they don't even know how to turn on visual voicemail, one rep didn't even know what visual voicemail was, and when I asked for s supervisor, he put me on hold and after 20 minutes, disconnected. They really suck. I'm thinking of switching to US Mobile or Visible.
Can you pin this comment? Let me explain. I was a new customer and got 3 months for free and it was great. Fast speeds and great coverage. But when I purchased the 12 month plan of unlimited data $380 , I now don't get coverage in my room. The same room where I used to get coverage. Now I can't even stream movies or live PPV via USB to my TV because I lose coverage. I can't get a refund either even after speaking with a supervisor. It's better paying monthly and knowing you get coverage than to pay $380 and not have any signal. Dropped calls and lose of service signal. Worst decision I've ever made and regret paying for the year. Update, the coverage is great, now I can't complain but what the heck was going on the past few months?

DATA THROTTLING. DO NOT GET MINT. I have it and they throttle your data more and more throughout the month until it is unusable. Apps won't load, forget about video. Seriously worst mistake I ever made. I have the highest plan. "Unlimited" means extremely limited.

@@patfenner T-Mobile has been disappointing in my area at least. I was looking at Verizon again but now I’m hearing this. I think internet service in general is getting too overwhelmed to remain sustainable for anyone.
What I'm trying to find out is if my trust fund pays for a new phone and new plan, will they allow the account to be in MY name with MY transferred number (if it's in the name of my trust or the attorney who is the legal firms primary attorney can the account show as my account so I can transfer my number from AT&T [not possible if the account is in any other name because someplace/someone else is paying as AT&T will refuse to transfer the number]?)?

Why does the Activation page of the site ... blank. Also when i got my SIM card - the codes were rejected and expired by MInt's phone app. this company is run by clowns
Right now, I'm on a Verizon family plan. I'm wanting to branch out on to my own. Lately, Verizon hasn't been doing great service wise for me. Mint doesn't have the $15 deal anymore, so I'd have to pay $25 for 15GB for 3 months. Would that be worth it? They also say on their website that I could "lock in" the same price as the first 3 months.
You can lock in the intro price if you go on to purchase a 12 month plan after your intro offer of 3 months is out. I think all intro offers are still good (compared to big expensive services) and if you go on to buy a 12 month plan after that is the cheapest and best way.
Do you really use 15GB of data each month? I’m experimenting with the 4GB plan. Was on 8GB and never used it up. I’m in the habit of connecting to local WiFi in hotels, restaurants, etc.
I'm trying to order a new phone and the 3 month discount package but it's not letting me put both in the cart at the same time. Any suggestions. I only have a couple of days before the discount expires.
I literally just paid my phone off yesterday. I’m probably going to do the 15 gig plan but I’m wondering if I have to wait to port in from AT&T that’s my only hangup
Congrats! Right now they had a promotion where all plans are the same price as the lowest tier! In the app they tell you how much data you use so at least you don’t limit yourself for the first 3 months and you can choose to switch after to a lower tier if you need to.
In the Seattle area and north towards the Canadian border Mint Mobile is not so good. Connectivity issues, dropped calls and multiple dead spots even right in the city.
Wow I’m sorry that the service isn’t great there. Hopefully it gets better. T-Mobile has been expanding their coverage area so it might be better soon for Mint
@@dabbking It's pretty good in Skagit. I reside here too. There's a few dead spots but they're really small zones when driving and you're in and out quickly. You'll have to try it and make sure it works for you. Otherwise move on to another budget Carrier. Verizon and associated mvnos work best up here.
I found out the hard way mint is worthless. First I was going back and forth with mint and tracfone to get my number transferred. I was on the phone for 3 hours waiting for my number to get ported it was not until the end of three hours one of the reps finally told me o buy the way your phone is locked. So thanks for wasting my time and my 45 dollars
You should be able to get a refund. They give you your money back in 7 days. I did it once. Sucks that you couldn’t use on a locked device but they wouldn’t know that until they have your device info. They have a portal online that you can put the imei info into to see if your own phone is locked. If you have paid off your phone, call your carrier and have them unlock it.
Don't BUY or switch to Mint mobile. ITS THE WORST!! I'm on the road, travelling alone and have run out of data. THEY WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO BUT ADDITIONAL DATA!!!😱😱😱😱
Just finished my first 3 months 4GB plan , Renewed for 12 month plan at $180. Just make sure your phone has VoLTE capability....I live in the Philly area, the data and talk/text service has been great!
This is what I’m planning to get, may I ask how did you renew the 12 month plan? Did u have to still be in that 3 month cycle? Say started on Jan. Then late March, how do u renew the 12 month promotion price 15/month? Before the 3 month ends or wait until it’s over? Thnaks
I tried Mint Mobile for 3 months. $15 a month. They go up to $25 a month after that. Was told it is only an introductory offer for new customers. Thinking that you have $25 for life.......wrong!
They steal your data sometimes, I woke up with over a GB of data gone,happens every now and then, phone was on wifi, no backround apps running, heard of a couple other people also losing data, customer service was a waste,, been using mint over three yrson my spare phone, works well accept for the mystery missing data
Don't ever get those lower plan specially if they don't have unlimited data it happened to me I had to wait 3 months and I was growing grey hairs because of the slow Internet I went back to simple mobile $50 truly unlimited data
@@dJ.kNiGhT23 Sure wi-fi helps very much - WHEN IT IS AVAILABLE. Other than that, I avoid using cellular data most of the time; usually because i do not need it. On the few occasions when I do want some, I can buy a little bit extra and it lasts for 30 days (unless I use it all).
Tello Mobile is better deal and not as tricky plus includes free International Calling to 60 countries; and you are not prepaying for 12 month which is NOT refundable.
Another problem with MINT compared to Tello is MINT has fewer lower-cost pricing plans than does Tello. Customer needs to decide on a choice: Advanced-payment only and have good supply of talk/text/data; or pay every 30 days potentially for lower prices (if the selectable plans for talk/text/data are enough supply).
Actually for many people, to pay in advance for the equivalent of $15 per month is very appealing. No other carrier seems to handle prices and bundling this way (almost no others).
@@dallemon15 the opportunity cost of money. It is not really $15 per month, that’s the initial 3 month come-on to lure you in, the only way you can continue to receive the equivalent of $15 per month is to prepay for 12 month, and you are locked in for 12 months since the payment is non-refundable-it is “float” but it never has to be paid back. It’s $25 per month if you renew for next 3 months, and international calling is extra. With Tello Mobile, I am paying $14 per month for 2 GB data, set up to pay automatically from my credit card, and I get international free calling to 60 countries. I don’t have much data needs because I use Wi-Fi. If need be, I can add data, up to unlimited for $29 per month. I could go up to 5 GB for $19-it’s all flexible, only locked in for a month. And since Tello and Mint both run on the T-Mobile Network, the actual service is the same, except for the add of free international.
