Glad I watched this! Just got Visible+ and Visible for my wife and I. We got the welcome discount but with a quick chat with customer services they added the $5 off for 3 month discount on top! You the man!
Pls do this for US MOBILE I'm getting 5mb download speed on vz towers....😢
i have US mobile and they do allow 4K streaming
Visible is unbeatable. The Goat 🐐
Hey what cellular do you recommend for me and my wife
2. And unlimited
I’m in my third year as a Mint customer. I work from home, so I’m almost always connected to wifi, which means that Mint’s 5GB plan is more than enough for me. Once a year, I pay about $200, and for next 12 months, I have no mobile phone bill at all. Switching from AT&T to Mint cut my mobile phone spending by 80%.
Broooo! I have AT&T! I like the high end Androids like the Ultra and Fold. Thanks! I may switch because I work from home too.
I work from home too. Good point.
Mints prices have went up!!! $300 a year for the 5gb plan.
@@relaxationsounds6981 Incorrect. I just checked the website, and the price is exactly what it was in 2021: $15 per month. That works out to $180 per year. With tax, I pay between $201 and $202 per year.
Ooo
I’ve had Mint for years now. I pay annually. Reception is good where I live. It’s reliable and cost me $201.63 with the tax for 5 gig plan.
They offer iphones?
Are they for personal and business or just personal?
Does it work with banking apps and accounts?
@@lawless3982 Yes it does
@@stevengraham9819 Depends on your use case scenario, its like any other consumer phone service. There is not a business plan in place
and yes they do have iphones
I switched to Mint from ATT one year ago, May 2022. Never looking back! What a savings and the coverage is stellar in the Buffalo, NY region.
Beyond coverage, do you have unlimited data for videos, movies?
Tired of paying $78 a month with Verizon. This video alone made me at least try the 3 month trial with Mint. Thanks!!
Is it good
@@50klavish54 very!! signed up for a full year for $360
Its so worth it. Ive had Mint going on 4 years now. The service is very reliable and if you dont mind payinf the year up front, you save ao much money! The 15gb works out to $263 after taxes and fees. Thats just under $22/month. Big time savings. And I dont use close to that full 15gb.
Dam $78 on Verizon I’m paying $140 and that’s with paid off device smh
I've been a mint mobile user for about 2 years now and I can't sing its praises enough. If you're in an area with good coverage, the kind of internet speed you get is insane. It's also just so dang cheap per month if you buy the 1 year contract vs shelling out 86 per month from Verizon like I used to.
Is the internet bad when not on wifi?
Mints prices have went up!!! $300 a year for the 5gb plan.
@@relaxationsounds6981NOPE!🙄
@@relaxationsounds6981 that is an increase for sure, BUT, for what I currently spend with Verizon, i have an 8 plus and my wife has the iphone 13. We both have Unlimited lines with a disney plus subscription, for about 186 a month. If we were to switch, and go on mint mobiles unlimited family plan we would be saving quite a bit for the year
@@forgot2wipeMy internet works great when I’m on WiFi. But, on the road, where cellular data is most crucial… it SUCKS.
Dude. Ridiculously useful video. Clear and concise on all fronts. Keep it up.
Agreed absolutely phenomenal breakdown!
Gotta love a video that not only breaks down everything in a perfectly concise manner with a fair comparison of everything, but also ACTUALLY answers the question of the video! Hats off to you sir, Mint or Visible will definitely be considered by me now!
I'm on Mint right now, and with the exception of having no data service in rural areas while traveling, I've had zero complaints. Except in those limited rural areas, my data speeds are very fast (typically with a 5G connection, occasionally dropping to LTE). I have tried Visible several times over the past 2 years, and every single time I regretted it. The service was horrible (in areas where Verizon's direct service is perfect), with texts not coming through, strange garbled voice calls, and numerous times I had no service at all. When I briefly switched to a direct Verizon account (with the outrageous monthly prices), all of those issues went away, so clearly Visible was the problem. No thank you, I'll stick with Mint.
No one else includes taxes in their discussion about plans. Taxes must be paid ,great that you included the total price!!!!
I think Mint’s unlimited versus Visible is a good comparison. Probably depends on if you have better Verizon coverage or T-Mobile. I’ve tried both and liked each but right now we are using T-mobile for our 3 lines because we get the 5g home Internet for $40
Unfortunately even though the Verizon is only LTE where I live and slower than T-Mobile, I would choose Visible over mint mobile, as unlike mint mobile if the tower you're connecting to is congested after you use your premium data it slows down, but speed goes back up after the congestion goes away.
In NYC all the coverage is good 😂😂
@REAL-UNKNOWN-SHINOBI t-mobile signal doesn't go thru walls or inside buildings like malls.
Verizon is a better CDMA signal which is strong indoors.
At these prices, I could sign up for BOTH Mint and Visible (that's what I'm test driving right now) and still be below the single line cost from AT&T
If one's phone supports dual SIMs it doesn't hurt to have multiple providers if you travel.
Not to mention, I still carry an AT&T phone for work, so I'm covered during travel with all three carriers.
@@zlonewolf
Verizon doesn't have a CDMA signal anymore, they haven't since the end of 2022.
Verizon uses LTE and 5G so your entire freaking damn argument is invalid.
I had Mint mobile on their 6 month plan but I switched to Visible with 2 months remaining when they introduced their Welcome offer and got Visible+ for $35. Visible just has better coverage being Prioritized data and getting Ultra Wideband in my area as well. Don’t get me wrong Mint wasn’t bad at all. If Visible decides to take away the discount in the future, I’ll definitely go back to Mint.
The only reason I'm staying with Visible because they have real unlimited data and no throttling after a certain amount of data.
Did you have any issues porting over your phone number? I wanted to go with visible but I’m considering mint because of the bad comments about porting and customer service
@@BillyBob-op6lg I actually did have trouble porting in my number but it was fixed within an hour or so
So let's get this straight, is mint mobile fox telling the truth or lying, please don't tell mint mobile fox is lying, I would be devastated
@@selw0nkor only slows down if there is congestion.
This is the one reason people actually hate mint mobile when it comes to their "unlimited" plan, because it's absolutely limited to 1 Mbps after you use your premium data.
I know you're channel is all about mobile, but have you ever considered going into computers? I absolutely love this breakdown and the reviews of everything here, I'd love to see well-edited and concise reviews like this in other topics like different hardware and software for example different processors or operating systems.
This was such an incredibly well put-together video, both in presentation and explanation. Cheers, and thank you! 🙌
Dude, this is one of the most comprehensive breakdowns I've ever seen on UA-cam. Subbed. This is exactly the kind of insane depth I go into when buying something. You did it for me. Thank you so much.
Great video Steston! I thought I was getting a good deal on my service but apparently these new services have really created some nice offerings.
I LOVE mint. Been on it for 3 years now. Never going back into a sprint store again and wait for hours and hour for them just to get a new phone working.😊
I thought someone bought sprint out? Either ATT or T mobile
@@dark12ainT-Mobile bought Mint, also, in 2023 for 1.3 billion dollars (minting Ryan Reynolds a cool 300 million, plus more money for continued endorsement). So, the service, data and coverage now suck beyond belief.
Excellent video. Explains everything so clearly and covers all questions. Bravo.
When visible says unlimited they actually mean unlimited, I use hundreds of gigs per month on the base plan and have had no issues. Mints unlimited plan will kick you off the network if you use too much.
thank you for this. I also use hundreds of gigs a month and thought about Mint but I think visible is the way im going to go now
@@itzdatboijdn also forgot to mention. Mint mobile will slow you down no matter what after you reach the 30 or 40 gig limit even on their unlimited plan. Visible will only slow you down if the tower is congested.
I’ve been using Mint for almost a year now and unless they raise their prices or cut coverage I don’t foresee myself changing carriers. Being able to pay my phone bill in advance for the year at a 3rd of what my yearly bill expense was on ATT is amazing. Switching myself and my husband to Mint is saving us a easy 1200 per year. Now we both do have older phones a iPhone 11 Pro Max and iPhone 12 Mini but we are hoping to get another 2-3 years out of them and even when we do have to upgrade we will still have saved money just buying them outright.
I like the additional analysis with the comparisons and the phone plus service comparisons as well. Great job Stetson.
Thank you, Swingkat! Happy you liked it! :)
This is an excellent comparison. You've made my decision-making process so much easier. Thank you
This is the most detailed, thought out, well presented analysis I've ever seen!
I’m considering switching from T-Mobile prepaid 10GB to Mint Mobile 15GB. When I first joined I was under impression I had free UA-cam and music streaming under BingeOn and then they downgraded it to Music Unlimited. Heard T-Mobile prepaid had same data priority as T-Mobile postpaid plans as opposed to Metro or Mint but in my case it didn’t seem to matter when sometimes my data was very slow or unusable even under 5G when in town or concert so I might well go with cheaper Mint plans.
Mint has been having their unlimited plan for $15 promo going on for a bit now. It said it would renew at $15/month. But it doesn’t it renews at $90/year!!! That’s $7.50/month for their unlimited plan.🎉
Unlimited until you reach a limit or T Mobiles network is at high capacity, then it's limited
Love how you broke this down ❤ Easy to follow and understand 🥳
Thanks for doing the comparison. Loved it 👍
Mint is great if you MUST have the T mobile network, though Version is know to have some of the best coverage around.
Visibles 30$ plan is honestly a steal for unlimited data. And unlimited hot spot as-well!
It heavily depends on your location. Where I live Verizon is a congested mess with a lot of places getting 1 bar of unusable LTE. T-Mobile and (primarily) AT&T work with 5G in A LOT more places around my area. Verizon’s network’s quality is diminishing and they are still struggling to roll out 5G especially in some rural areas.
@@ethannn475 Im talking about the majority of the country.
Most of the country that has some sort of population will have version.
If something works with your area thats great! Im just saying version has some of the best coverage around.
In the Mint vs Visible bucket. I want to switch from Mint because of the buy; however, the ease of switching devices on Mint is a deal breaker if another carrier doesn't offer the same conveniences. T-Mobile's network is just more modern.
Excellent video. This is why I subscribe, and why I recommend your channel to co-workers. Any time this topic comes up at work, I just grab a post-it note and write your name on it. Here's all the information you'll ever need, organized to a 'T'.
Very good video …. I always buy my phone from apple unlocked and used both prepaid and postpaid services. I think t mobile internet is better but voice call quality is not upto mark. …..For visible using verizon their voice call is better but internet is slow compare to T mobile. Thats my opinion. I drive around local for my work.
Mint is great at $15. Decent coverage, good speeds. For Unlimited I switched over to Visible. Even better coverage and speeds.
Short summary: Clickbait thumbail and the dude is sponsored by Mint. Just goes over what mint offers and how good it is
I just ordered mint for my mom - in her late 60s no FB, no UA-cam watching/streaming. The 5gb for $15 plus the addition promo 3 free months when you buy 3 months is unbeatable. Hope the service jn Central California is good
So much of this just depends on where you live and much data you will want… if the service doesn’t work in your area, it does you no good….. Another great review and love your channel
Great information. I'm thinking about switching to Mint from T-Mobile
Mint is great and does the job for me in Urban Seattle. Can even still get service when I go on hikes around Washington state. Big fan, will be a shame whenever they leave. After tax I payed $207 for a year. About $17.25 a month is excellent and more than half of what big names offer
Switched from Mint to Visible. I don't regret it.
Your awesome dude. All my questions answered for no work
Thanks for the video, very detailed.
Great video! Thank you! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😊
I have had the same phone for seven years, changed the battery twice, don't use apps, some of us still think a phone should only be a phone.
Glad to see an awesome video from a fellow IC Grad!
For up front full year cost you forgot to mention that they now offer option to pay it in 4 payments, so basically 3-months payments but at 12-months rates
True! That's an option available for 2+ lines on Mint Mobile!
I've always wonder. Let's say you pay the 12-month up front & the company goes down. Are you entitled to get your money back or will they keep services up until everybody uses it & with no option to renew. Not with Mint, but any phone company with similar payment option.
Stetson is my go to guy for mobile plans. Great job on these videos
This was a very well made video Thanks
Really well made video thank you for doing the work to analyze all the data :)
You are welcome, Spencer!
Great presentation Stetson was informative and aesthetic on point
Thank you, Mitchell!
Thanks dude! Youre awesome!
Good video! Is Visible still the only MVNO that supports Apple watch cellular? I'm using Visible now.. with the 15 off a month for a year promo.. so I'm paying 20 a month for my phone and my Apple watch, crazy killer deal. Visible in my area is pretty mediocre though.. I just upgraded to the Visible plus to see if it helps at all.
I currently work at T-Mobile and get a killer employee discount, but I'd love to switch to mint whenever I end up quitting. However, it's not uncommon for me and others on my plan to use more than 40gb in one month, and I can't live without the 4k streaming that comes with Magenta Max
any insight on any possible changes in their plans? Would hate to leave T-mobile for Mint only for the prices to get similar later on
I feel like theres to much hype around 4k. even when on my PC or phone, which both supports 4k I still choose to use 1080p. Only use 4k for watching stuff on my TV (I have a custom app for youtube that even removes ads on TV)
How tf you use so much data I only use like 5gb
@@stopthecap4317 some people just dont really care. I use like 8gb a month but my wife uses 22gb. I don't even know how
@@theglassarrow_ me too. 4K is unusable on phone screens and on my 27 inch monitor I prefer 1080p.
I am not sure if this was in the calculations but with paperless billing and autopay on Verizons postpaid, but you save a additional $10 per line which if you have 4 lines on the get more or play more it is like $45 for 4 lines an $40 for 5 lines not including taxes or surcharges.
Visible Wireless had the Unlimited Hotspot for yrs! That feature alone is why I refuse to switch to another wireless carrier. That deal is hard to beat @ $25/mth.
Great vid man👊🏽
glad i saw your comment
Glad someone mentioned this. I am on Mint and upgraded to unlimited plan only to find out it caps hotspot at 10 gb per month. Thats unacceptable for me and now considering Visible.
Mint is much better than most plans, however, if they lower prices per year, those prices should apply to the loyal subscribers as well!
Okey! I was comparing, reviewing, reading about all carriers the past few days. This video only confirmed what I had decided, I just needed that extra push and this was it! Excited to leave AT&T and start with Mint, and a brand new phone by saving $276 per year! Just placed my order 😍 thank you for the great detailed video.
Good luck. After the trial period is over, Mint Mobile begins to “steal” cellular data.
For example, I got the 15 gig plan because that’s what I’ve always had with other carriers and I never ran out.
But, with Mint, I had to keep getting more and more data, because I would run out. I’m currently on their 40 gig plan and I can listen to my podcasts for about two days before I run out.
And, since I had to pay up front for a full year’s service with no refund ability… I’m just screwed.
Ryan Reynolds got 300 million outta the sale and continued to make bank on the commercials… but, T-Mobile turned his baby into just another cellular scam.
Great video! Very well presented information
the best investment I've made in the past 20 years.... I've not had one issue on the 30 unlimited 3 month plan..thank you so much 💓
I pay $45., a month AT&T on my friends 5 line plan. I trade in my previous iPhone for a huge discount applied to a new iPhone via AT&T. And I love that AT&T does not charge interest in the monthly payment towards the new iPhone.
awesome spreadsheet analysis for different number of lines :)
I would have to go with Visible in this case which I might make option two with US Mobiles $25 plan being option one but of corse I am from New Zealand and would only be using one of these with my family while visiting the USA on vacation
Rn, I’m paying $195 p MONTH with an unlimited AT&T plan (for 2 lines). I got laid off and now I HAVE to find a cheaper plan. Thanks for such a great video breaking everything down, helps a lot!
very informative thanks!
I took advantage of a free 3 months deal on Mintmobile unlimited about 5 month ago. So it was $90+ taxes for 6 months of service. Mintmobile runs this deal periodically so look out for it every now and then if you like or want to try their service. Not sure if I'm going to sign up again once it ends though. Mint now has some better competition out there and me resigning with them is no longer automatic or even a definite #1 option.
Who better?
🤖🤖🤖
@@BillyBob-op6lg I meant better as in just as good, at a similar price. Of course Mintmobile extended that $15 a month for 3 months unlimited plan soon after I posted that. 🤦🏿♂️ Nothing competes with that.
Mints prices have went up!!! $300 a year for the 5gb plan. Metro PCS might be a better price for what you get.
@@relaxationsounds6981 What are you even talking about? This is a blatant lie.
I like the proper comparison between each carrier. It seems more clear what I want to choose thanks to this video.
I’ve used Mint for about a year now. No major complaints compared to my previous carrier, though the deprioritized data is annoying once in a while. Not as annoying as spending $35 a month instead of $15 though.
I will say though, Tello’s $6 custom plan is pretty great for secondary devices. 500mb of high speed data and unlimited low speed data, as well as talk and text, is all you really need for a device that’s not your main one, and $6 a month can’t be beat. I used it for a month when I was transitioning from iPhone to Android, so my old phone would still have service whenever I needed it before I got my new phone completely set up.
Visible for me. No unseen taxes and fees with auto-pay each month and not months or a year in advance. Service everywhere and been happy with them for a year now.
Did you have any issues porting over your phone number?
@@BillyBob-op6lg Nope! Went very smooth and without a hitch. Very, VERY happy with the coverage and the online service. Auto pay is the amount stated. No hidden fees or taxes.
@@Tailsnpaws how long did it take to port the number? We’re you without service for vey long?
@@BillyBob-op6lg no lack of service. Porting took mere minutes.
2:14 Voice over LTE is no longer a feature. Every Carrier Only offers LTE. And voice over LTE needs LTE to function. It's now a necessity to use any carrier.
Great review! I am going to switch I think after watching reviews and looking at ratings by users. Mint I already use Metro by T-Mobile and my unlimited plan is $56/mo
Mint is owned by T-Mobile also and its data usage is the worst I’ve ever experienced. DO NOT read the good reviews. Only read the bad ones (written by real people, not paid to shill).
I’ve been using mint mobile for about 1-2 years idk it’s been forever and it’s never disappointed
I sell phones and TMO postpaid section is misleading, their cheapest unlimited plan is the Essentials at 60 a month for one line. Technically they just released a new plan too called essentials saver and that’s like 50 a month. Though depending on promo the saver may not qualify for it. Anyways good video…
Great video Stetson!! Keep it up. Can you do a video on U.S. Mobile's 100 day trial with 50gb of premium data?
Yep want to see that too as well
I love how with mint you can just pay once and not worry about your phone bill for a year if you byod.
I cannot understand how people are paying $100+ a month for ATT or Verizon or even T-Mobile. I hear my coworkers at work complaining about how much their phone bill is... but they always say "it's too much trouble to switch..." bruh you can save so much money. People are so weird lol
I have visible now for over 3 years. Never looked back. Recently they made it even better. Crazy to know how big scammers the phone companies were, especially Sprint, a decade or more ago.
You know in Romania $5 gets you unlimited internet. We're lucky companies are actually competing in here
Thanks man.Ithaca college,your not to far from where im from;was thinking about mint mobile 1 line unlimited,currently have tracfone.🍻
I like buying my phone upright so Mint makes sense to me but I'll have to look at the coverage map cuz T-Mobile doesn't have good coverage in my area in some parts.
I’ve been with Mint for a year now. Once my initial low cost deal ended in June, I gladly renewed for a year of unlimited. My previous AT&T plan was almost $100/month. Now I get, essentially, the same service (actually better as the T-Mobile network has better coverage in my area) for a quarter of the price. The only thing I gave up was international usage which isn’t a big deal. We will have to see if the low prices continue under T-Mobile but, for now, I am locked in for a while at a great rate.
As soon as my trial period ended, I went from using less than 15 gigs per month to now using 40 gigs in less than two days. How the fuck did THAT happen?
It’s simple: T-Mobile (which owns Mint) is a one of the big three rip off corporations and Ryan Reynolds continues to make bank off promoting this shit company.
You do a really great job explaining the step by step each plan. One question… what if you don’t trade a phone? I feel like Mint is better option in every case, you agree?
Correct! If you prefer to purchase your devices outright from the manufacturers, or buy gently used devices on Swappa, then going with Mint is a better option in every case. The postpaid plans only make sense if you also take advantage of the financing deals.
@@StetsonDoggett thank you Stetson. That makes a lot ID sense.
a quick side note, if you buy a plan and upgrade they will just charge you whatever the price increase was from your last plan, i.e paid 300 for a 12 month plan upgrade and then you only have to pay the 40 out of the 340 for the unlimited because you paid the 300 earlier.
Congratulations on 100K 🎉
Thank you!!
In my 5th year as Mint customer. Never had service issues ( maybe like 2 call drops in these 5 yrs ), great internet speed etc. I don’t need random subscription benefits - just a good reliable phone connection. Great video!
I’m in my first year and the cellular data is the worst I’ve ever experienced with any carrier (and, I’ve been with just about all of them).
I think (since T-Mobile bought Mint from Ryan Reynolds) they count WiFi data as cellular data, cuz I have to have Mint’s 40 gig plan just to get through one weekend (I’ve only ever had a 15 gig plan with anyone else) and I’m left with the rest of the month with nothing.
And, since I’m not paid to promote Mint, I can be totally honest about how crappy it is.
@@AdmoreMethod I feel it’s dependent on the area as well. Does T-Mobile work well in your area?
@@famishedrover I only use the cellular data when I’m on the road (mostly for GPS and podcasts), so I use it all over Arizona. It’s not the “spottiness” I have issue with - it’s the running out of data and not being able to load GPS that drives me nuts. It’s like Mint steals my data, so that I have to keep spending more and more money. I’ve NEVER needed more than 15 gigs a month before moving to Mint.
Interesting. I do know that Mint doesn’t limit data speeds nor does it cap video quality. Its possible that you watch a lot of yt netflix etc which now stream at high quality draining your data much faster than other providers ( who limit the video quality )
@@famishedrover I would’ve thought the same, if I used cellular data for streaming. But, I only use it when I’m traveling - and, mostly then for GPS, podcasts and music (I use the Sirius XM app).
But, I’ve never had this issue with any other provider (of course, that was back when we were 4G and things worked more reliably).
I wonder if maybe this is a 5G problem and not a Mint problem…? 🤔
Well…. I had cricket “unlimited” I was paying $55/mo for very spotty service. There was stretches of highway and very populated areas where I would have maybe 2 cell bars and LTE data that wouldn’t even load a song. I felt like I was carrying around a brick in my pocket. Hoping mint will be better for me. I’ll update this after about a week of having it.
I have cricket unlimited as well but have been thinking of switching over so I am curious if you have an update ?
I’m curious if you’re still using Mint, cuz I’m jumping ship the SECOND my annual “contract” is up. Mint cellular data SUCKS!!!
Not an upfront cost if you do a family plan. Can just pay 3 months at the 12 month rate.
I love the pricing. I think that even if my carrier now provided this type of pricing option I would absolutely pay for it all at once for a year or ten
Until Visible's sale is over, that plan is not beatable. It is even worth it stepping up to their second plan with 50 gigs priority, then just add a usmobile sim when you travel.
Don't forget UW is always unlimited! So if you live in an ultra Wideband area it will always be unlimited. So that's a win too.
@@TheSonyExperience even when it's not the Ultra wide band real speeds? So like midband uw is also unlimited?
@@A42yearoldARAB yes sir! C band and mmWave are always unlimited!
Cant beat unlimited hotspot for me on visible since no internet in area.
Metro by T-Mobile has a single line $25 byod unlimited plan. It’s to compete with visible and boost. I wish att or cricket would step up.
Good review, but the video resolution point in the comparisons doesn't really make sense to me.
Anyone that is financially educated will go with a pre paid or mint in this example. I liked the carrier analogy cause the issue Americans specifically have is they get phones they cannot afford. If you cannot afford your phone outright than you should not buy it. I got my 13 Pro from mint and they gave me 6 months of services for free back in 2021. Saved me $90 on my service.
I just switched to Mint from T-Mobile. I live overseas and all of my calling to the States is via Wifi so it's free and unlimited SMS which I use very little (I'd rather use message apps like Line or Signal). The catch is I need to connect to a hotspot which is provided by a tablet using a local SIM. By dumping T-Mobile I spend less for 2 local SIMS (dual SIM phone and a tablet) along with the Mint $15/month plan so I have solid redundancy and awesome connectivity with ZERO international costs for calls via WiFi.
T-Mobile owns Mint.
You’re still paying Big T.
It all depends on your data usage which plan will be best for you.. Most people these days are data hogs on their cell phones that use it for everything and anything so most people will want the best unlimited plan with the cheapest price... however I find that me personally I only use like 1 gig per month so I would be over paying even with mints lowest tier plan..
I was thinking about mint or boost , not sure yet that's why I'm watching your video!
I've had mint mobile for 2 years, signing on for a 3rd year next month, literally the same exact experience I've had on T-Mobile and Sprint but hundreds of dollars cheaper per year, even with the service being deprioritized I never notice it, even when I'm having weekend nights in Pittsburgh
thank you! this was my biggest hesitation
@@likeblissIf you’re in a city, ON WIFI, Mint will work fine. But, the minute you go off WiFi or leave the city… the data speeds suck.
Hi Stetson Doggett, would you make a video tutorial on the recent cancellation of credit card payment discounts by T-Mobile. Also show up offer tips on alternative payment methods to continue receiving discounts. Thank you! What is the best way to keep discounts with out checking accounts 🙏🙏
Visible is for people that want new phones, less than two years old. My Note 9, which I purchased on 01 September 2018 is neither compatible or worth any trade-in value, though it is completely undamaged, and fully functional. The original battery still lasts an entire day. I believe the $149 per month I pay to T-mobile for two phones is high, but I have not made up my mind on how to change that. T-mobile has the best coverage in my area, but Verizon's coverage is almost as good. I also could get the 'over 55' discount.
An important consideration is not wanting my house LAN and my cell phones to be with the same carrier. The LAN ISP is Verizon, so if I move my cell phones to Verizon, I need to find another ISP for my LAN, such as Breezeline or Comcast.
11:25 Thank you sooo much, u just saved me a lot of time.
What is a recovery fee? It that a one time fee? Or do I pay every month with the plan?
ive tried mint mobiles free 3mo service every year since 2018 and its good for the price
amazing video well done my friend.
Bro, how does Stetson not have more views? Very thorough and informative video as always.
You should have it tagged in the video that this is a promotional video and have that in the description as well.
hey do you still have the "that was easy" button from staples that you did a review on about 10 years ago that was shot on a iphone 5?
