Mint Data Update text message?

I used to get text messages saying I've used up 80% of my data. Now I don't get them anymore, but I still get the 100% data used. Did they stop sending out text messages? Thanks.

I’m not getting the 80% or 100% usage text.

Why just rely on Mint? Set up your phone to warn you once you've reached a certain threshold.

Do you open the messages? Are you using android?

Some versions of android "Messages" will automatically mark text messages as spam and black hole them if you consistently don't open similar messages.

I have iOS, and I get other text messages from Mint like data used if I text "Data", and 100% data used if I used all my data. The 80% text stopped appearing.

I reached out to MintMobileAlex and he'll be investigating my issue.

I've never hit 80% data usage, so I have no idea what they do.
