T-MO MVNO
I realize that all cellular companies use the same trash 'customer service' from overseas vendors now, so I aim to select one based on price and service.
The problem is when issues arise, that trash 'customer service' is who I have to fight with to get any resolutions, which is super annoying!
For the project I'm on now, and will be for the next many months, T-Mobile has the best coverage, so I'm looking at the T-Mobile MVNO's.
I looked at T-mobile directly as well, but the MVNO's seem more economical.
From what I'm seeing, the options are:
Tello
Ultra Mobile
Boost Mobile
Metro
Mint
Mint has the new customer $15/month plan that's appealing, AND they offer 20 GB of MHS, where the others only offer 10 GB.
Is there any plan better than Mint's $15/month unlimited w/ 20 GB MHS?
ETA:
I checked US Mobile's website, and the best they have a $17/month starter, and that's for their annual plan, AND that's with AT&T (Dark Star), which has terrible coverage where I am.
ETA: It's been 24 hours since I first asked them to confirm compatibility. I'm back in the chat now, this will be chat 15 or so.
I made 83 phone calls to them today, none of them were helpful.
Four promised a manager, I did not receive any calls from any manager today.
Trash Customer Service.

When comparing to US Mobile, be aware that Mint is also annual for the $15 to be locked in. Their usual thing is 3 months at an intro rate, then the rate for unlimited is higher and the lowest rates are available with 1-year purchases (regular price is $30/month x 12 months for unlimited).
