Slovakia, 300GB for 13 EUR/month, no texts and calls included. Those are 5 cents I think.
The carrier has an agreement with another one for coverage extension, but with official FUP of 20GB in that network.
This carrier however disregards that and instead allows up to 80GB, but for a few months after enabling 4G from that other carrier the FUP wasn’t applied at all.
But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.
It operates on that other network like MVNO, and if your phone decides to stick there, which people report happens a lot, say hello to far lower FUP instead. The carrier’s own network is also generally far slower.
I also found a little network issue (tested with 2 phones) where receiving calls are broken in a fairly specific scenario, but I don’t know how to report that. To keep it short, if VoLTE isn’t available, when switching from 2 of the 4G bands to one of the 2G bands, the call fails to connect after several long seconds of silence on caller end, and no notification of failed call attempt is sent.
I can work around both issues by selecting specific bands as needed manually, but that generally requires root and use of app like Network Signal Guru (inconvenient).
This allows me to decide whether I want more data amount, faster network speed, better outgoing call coverage, or higher chance of receiving a call. Yeah… their network sucks.
I also believe they break the EU roam like at home regulation:
Most plans only have half the data amount it seems they should have, but maybe I just calculated that wrong.
But this plan I have has… ZERO data for EU roaming.
2 x (price of mobile bundle excluding VAT / regulated maximum wholesale cap per GB) = data limit (in GB) when roaming
Hmmm… how does that give a zero.
I’ve been with Mint Mobile USA for 7 years now.
Same $15/month, for a Prepaid 12 months plan for ~$180/year
Used to be 2GB of 4G now it’s 5GB of 5G.
Technically unlimited throttled slow data, good enough for maps/email after.
If anyone uses my link it should be +$15 referral credit bonus.
Can upgrade at anytime in a cycle, but can’t downgrade, or also extra data buckets available.
End shilling
Also Ryan mails me an Xmas card every year ❤️.
They sent me a silly email today actually but hey…whatevs.
We just switched to that same plan from an Xfinity Family Plan we were on with my sister and her family. Been happy so far.
I’m on the same plan.
Lol didn’t ryan renolds sell mint to tmobile?
Or at least the majority stake he’s figured to have been ~20-25% holder of Mint…he’s still on this year’s Xmas card technically mailed from him too.
Under the terms of the deal, Reynolds will continue to work in his creative role for Mint.
