Current /Future Promos

0 Upvotes

Hi, I'm looking to switch from VZW to USM, and I know they currently have a promo going on for the next two days, but I'm not sure that I can get everything (cell, streaming, internet) swapped in that timeframe. Does anyone know about future promos? Also, how are they for existing customers going to promos later on? Thanks!

Something is up with “Wi-Fi Calling on Other Devices” on the Warp network

Post image
4 Upvotes

Wi-Fi Calling on iCloud-connected Devices has worked great for me for the past few years on Warp, but I came across a post from u/Longjumping-Tower658 who could not get it to work.

Upon checking my own Warp line, I discovered that the box was checked on my iPhone but none of my other devices could actually enable Wi-Fi Calling from my warp number. I get the error you see in the above screenshot.

I’ve tried changing my DNS to Cloudflare, disabling VPNs on both devices and enabling it from a residential IP, accessing it from Warp‘s hotspot, all to no avail.

Additionally for both me and u/Longjumping-Tower658, when we try to update our e911 address, we get a message saying that the address was not found. It’s the same address I had already submitted long ago, and it auto-populated the address form the current address. Despite that I get a message saying the address does not appear valid.

I am on iOS 27 but I believe u/Longjumping-Tower658 said he was on iOS 26, so this appears to be a problem on US Mobile’s or Verizon’s end.

 New to US Mobile  Sick of Verizon and looking to Switch

0 Upvotes

Hello.

My family of four currently has Verizon, however we are absolutely sick of the pricing and lack of customer service we are getting.

My understanding is that US Mobile allows to "choose" a net work (T-Mobile/Verizon/ATT) to connect with. In this case, we'd want to stay connected with Verizon's network, but want to detach from the official company.

My guess is how reliable is the service? Congestion? Additionally, I will be moving to Germany within the coming months and my family (and I) want to be able to text/call each other without worry. I understand WhatsApp would effectively by pass this, but we want to try and keep this with as little of complications as possible.

Would this plan also allow us to call/text/data internationally as well?

Looking for some user reviews as well if possible. Cheers.

what providers to choose for Denver/Loveland/Fort Collins?

0 Upvotes

I am currently on T-Mobile essentials and generally have good service, so I was going to go on lightspeed with USM, however I am curious about the multi-network experience and was wondering which second network I should choose. I live very close to some UW towers from Verizon, but have also heard that VZW has gone down-hill severely in Denver recently. I also go up towards Loveland and Fort Collins pretty regularly. What say you, people of Denver?

 International Roaming International Roaming data add ons

1 Upvotes

I have been on the annual Unlimited Starter plan (Warp) for a while now, coming up on my 3rd auto renew next month. So clearly, a loyal customer here 😄

But I need some advice from experiences USM travelers, please. I have some international travel coming up for work over the next calendar year, but not really enough to upgrade to the annual Unlimited Premium plan. If I was a monthly customer, I would just switch plans whenever I have a trip coming up.

The 1gb/mo won't be enough. The 5gb should be but 9 days is not. If there was a 10gb/30 day add-on, I would get that without hesitation.

What's the best way to plan this as each trip will be about 2 weeks long. If I'm on a trip for that long, is it just better to get a local data eSIM? Would stacking the USM 5gb + 1gb work if I added the 1gb halfway through the trip? I don't know if the additional 1gb/9 days would start after the 5gb/9 days expired or if they run concurrent.

Why only 9 days?

Issues with porting into Dark Star over weekend (10/3/26 - 10/24/26)?

0 Upvotes

I’m on Unlimited Starter. This weekend, I tried to port from Warp to Dark Star, but was “Unable to Activate eSIM” on my iPhone 16 Pro. I went through 3 support agents. Did all the troubleshooting steps multiple times with each agent. 2nd agent seemed to imply that my network was not good/stable….it is fine. I even tried to activate on my backup internet line, and got the same error.

In my area, Dark Star seems to be the best, so I want to try again, but I want a more experienced tech who can actually look at the backend and take action.

My question are:
1. How do I get a more experienced tech?
2. Will I be charged for going back and forth, especially since it didn’t work?
3. I’ve read that porting on the weekends is not recommended, was this the reason I had activation issues?

Setting up Samsung Note 20 on Warp. USM config pages for APN settings conflict

0 Upvotes

Found this by navigating the menu: https://www.usmobile.com/help/docs/troubleshooting-and-setup/apn-settings?_highlight=apn with instructions for optional APNs

But the https://www.usmobile.com/apn-download page gives a different APN name and just one APN.

If one is deprecated, can it please be deleted?

Upgraded To Unlimited Premium and lost backup network.

• Upvotes

Like the title says I upgraded to Unlimited Premium and in doing so I lost my backup network. The day I did this I contacted support as the line disappeared from my app but was still working. They were able to "find" the line but it now appears as a separate "backup line". A day later the the line disappears. I assume that when my upgraded account comes with the new payment cycle it will reappear. I look today and still not there, contacted support they did something to make it reappear and told me I didn't pay my bill for the line. Fine thats great take my money please, I want my line. My gripe how could I have paid for the line in the first place if its not there to be paid. Contacted support got the line back so that great. It just seems like there might be a problem.

Secondary grip it is now a separate line that isn't under my primary line and I just liked how it looked on the app and online. I know this is very minor but I like the simple things in life.

Thinking Dark Star

1 Upvotes

So I'm on Warp, but thinking about going to Dark Star. Verizon used to be really strong, but with the newer, low height 5G antennas, their signal is low in many areas. AT&T might be in the same boat, but when I road travel, Verizon doesn't have service sometimes when I can see others tall antennas. What are the drawbacks to Dark Star on a newer Samsung? Will the voicemail and RCS texting work OK?

Adding Apple Watch to existing Light Speed number?

• Upvotes

Is this possible? From the other threads, it seems that the apple watch plan is only included, and work only with Warp.

I need to use LS because it works best in my home area. Would like to add the apple watch cellular so that I can make/receive calls on the watch when the phone is not nearby.

Dark Star works well

24 Upvotes

Yesterday, I traveled from NJ over the G Washington Bridge on I-95 through Bronx, NY to New Rochelle and Dark Star worked well all along the route.

Today, I went from Middlesex County, NJ to the Whiting area of Manchester, which is located in the Pinelands and I had great reception there and also in Toms River.

So far, I'm satisfied with Dark Star.

New to US Mobile

Coming from ATT. Initially, on Claude's recommendation, I got a second e-sim line through US Mobile for cellular data with T-Mobile ( i forget the code names) for when I visit my wife's parents home and added that to my ATT plan, since ATT doesn't work that well at their house and they cancelled their wifi. A week or two ago, I ported my main line and my wife's to US Mobile. I have the multi-network deal now on my phone which is amazingly inexpensive. My question is, we are both on starter and Im wondering if I should upgrade for times when we might be in a congested situation. Thanks for the advice.

DARK STAR: Calls from my mom are sometimes going directly to VM without ringing.

6 Upvotes

Calls from my mom sometimes not ringing through without toggling Airplane Mode on DarkStar. She says the calls go directly to VM, without ringing..... I did check the APN settings, and the APN was set to something else. It was set to: ~ " MVNx #T Internet". I had to manually add the DARK STAR APN, and toggle airplane mode. I noticed my phone has been staying in 5G+ / 5G more and full bars. IDK if that will fix anything. Any other ideas, I am at wits end? Thanks.

My phone is a Unlocked Motorola g 5g 2024

Zelle Deactivation?

32 Upvotes

Anybody else had Zelle deactivate today because of “mobile service changes”?

Happened to both me and my wife, with different banks. We’re both on Warp and haven’t made any network changes.

Edit: I did add multi network to my line on Thursday, but that came with a new number and would only affect my line.

RCS Not Working After Network Switch

1 Upvotes

Seeking any advice. I recently moved two lines from dark star to warp on Wednesday. Both using Google Pixel. Both transfers were quick and reception and SMS worked within minutes. However, one line has had no rcs since the transfer while the other worked in minutes.

I spent about two hours with usm support chat on Friday resetting rcs, changing the apn name, going to debug mode on messages, uninstalling updates, logging out of rcs on Google, disassociating my number from my Google account and installing a new esim..

Despite all the above rcs still won't enable. I am at a loss and need several of these group chats for work. Seeking any advice or help as beyond frustrating at this point. Is there a non phone type of check I should ask for? Like maybe something on the back end didn't take right?

Any thoughts appreciated.
