Google Fi failed me in Italy in September 2023. Not trusting of them anymore internationally.
Good morning my friend why you never included helium mobile is on $20 por month
Hey man thanks for the chart, looks like a ton of time to put together.
very good videos. I believe that Visible is the cheapest and the best carrier that offers unlimited hotspot. however I still only can connect to a device at a time. don’t know why! maybe my plan is the $25/mo? should I upgrade to the plus plan?
Wow, this felt like a full paid for course. Incredible video. I signed up for the US Mobile Unlimited premium. Thank you dude.
US mobile is a great mvno
u sign up waste of money should of got t-mobile is better those company make u pay full price on the phones an t-mobile phones u can pay monthly on them to t-mobile don’t make u pay full price on any of the products at all to
@@cassandranelson3512 we will disagree on this. I had T-Mobile for a decade and worked for Verizon for a decade. Those companies don’t care about their customers. And I’m in the opinion that carrier trade in deals are a scam. With US Mobile, I get tmobiles network for $37.50/m with none of the drawbacks for actually being on T-Mobile
@@cassandranelson3512Some like to pay up front. It's an individual choice.
@@cassandranelson3512 he already had a unlocked phone
There is literally NOTHING that was left out. Amazing video which is super valuable to everyone in US.
What carriers allow Wi-Fi calling was left out. Unless they all do, and I’m just supposed to assume they all do. Important when I’m out of the country, and I don’t want to purchase any minutes.
He didn’t mention helium for 20/mo
Use VXEOJQU
Mint mobile?
@@sagew7377exactly how was Mint mobile left out? Very similar perks/pricing (Tmobile towers) as these plus they offer buy 3 months GET THREE MONTHS FREE! $90 credit per referral. It blows all of these out of the water besides Visible
Probably your best video yet. Really valuable information. I learn something new every time.
I appreciate it, Andrew! :)
A curious question: Are there people over eighty years of age who are very elderly people who own modern smart phones???@@StetsonDoggett
Can you do a video on this?
Thank you all you do! I’ve been with US mobile legacy plan after viewing and haven’t turned back! 2 perks is to good to lose
Hats off to your commitment! Thank you for creating amazing services like Coverage Map. Keep pushing for more such services.
I appreciate it! Trying to make tools that genuinely help people :)
Ima be honest I love the fact that you can view dish and uscellular on the coverage map app and this video is very helpful for people looking at getting the best cell phone plan
Excellent video and content.
9 year Verizon customer. Something to take note of are the perks (my plan includes Disney, Hulu, apple music) and discounts (employer, auto-pay etc.) on your plan and factor those amounts in when comparing a new plan to best determine value.
Plus the ability to get home internet 50% off
As always sir, you have always had the most up to date and helpful, useful, detailed info on how to find the best mobile service for our needs. We have a combination of Visible and US Mobile and could not be more satisfied!
Only thing I might add to this video, which is great by the way, is "best senior plan". Again, Great job as always!
We loved the previous video interview with US Mobile CEO. Please schedule an update interview with these guys. Exciting to see them grow and their hard work paying off with rapidly expanding customer base! Amazing customer service too.
answered all my questions. thank you!!!
Great in depth information…thanks so much 💯
Because of your videos, I switched to us Mobile from Verizon. I also got my fiancee on it. It went from $40 for mine and $25 for hers to $33 for both of us. 12 gb shared. So much money saved, especially since we buy cheaper unlocked phones. Thank you so much!
Simply the best cell phone plan videos!!! Great job.
Thanks, Steve!
You definitely overlooked a few carriers. Cricket wireless should be recommended. I would recommend Cricket wireless unlimited more over ATT starter plan.
Agree, have noticed Cricket frequently gets overlooked in Stetson's videos; it's really hard to beat the Cricket Unlimited+ plan with truly unlimited priority data. Admittedly, I prefer buying my iPhones outright and not be on what is essentially a 36 month contract with one of the major carriers (free phone is just a contract by another name).
Great explanation of the different plans and great job on explaining how these different companies work!
Glad it was helpful!
There’s only one bad thing about US mobile everyone should know. They have an issue going on with their services. People have been complaining about their data completely turned off randomly even though it shouldn’t be happening and I’m a victim of it as well. It happens every week and it’s getting annoying to the point I’m considering switching. I have one option left so if it doesn’t work I’m switching. It doesn’t happen with every phone, but just a heads up to be cautious because it might happen to you.
What phones does it happen to most often?
What phone do you have?
i had the $50/m 100gb red pocket mobile for almost 3 years on the att network... i switch to us mobile 100gb for $50/m on the t mobile network, and i most say us mobile is better in all aspect. great coverage in Miami fl .720p streaming is huge. great upload, thanks
Thank you for all this work! I switched to US Mobile thanks to you. Very happy with them!
Glad to hear it, Minny!
Great information, Thank you
Idk how Cricket More didn't make it on here. 4 lines for $130 flat, unlimited priority data, 15gb of hot spot per line and HBO Max.
i know right cricket is the only provider i have found to give unlimited everything but coverage is poor in my area or at&t and tmobile so i switched to us mobile starter which i think is just as good as cricket
Dude the service in cricket in my state is straight garbage.
Cricket is underrated. I use a ton of data and never been throttled. 4 lines unlimited for 100$. Traveled across the country and cricket was wayyy more reliable than visible.
Cricket is garbage in my location
Because it does not have the same coverage as ATT and by far the worst customer service. Att works great in my area, meanwhile cricket dropped calls and data was slow or just not at all.
I will send this to everyone I know. Amazingly in depth video on something everyone deals with and most people have limited knowledge on.
I’d love a video like this for UK based carriers! It’d give people the best information and what to choose.
I been with visible for months now and it’s been the best financial decision I made recently lol. Thank you for doing what you do.
Been on visible for a few days after switching from mint, loving it so far but time will tell
Ive had that AT&T prepaid for about 2 years now and its been great. $300 annually makes it $25 a month
Thanks for this very thought-out and informative video.
You are welcome!
Thanks Stetson, super comprehensive. I’ll check out the spreadsheet!
Glad you liked it, Cole!
Perfect timing. I'm leaving Straight Talk next month and I've been looking for sub $30 plans for a while now.
Hopefully this helped!
Even though I'm grandfathered in with a T-Mobile Magenta Military with 5 lines for $110 per month, I see the value in this video and the effort that went into creating it. Note that T-Mobile does have hidden plans that give some of these in the video a run for their money. Thanks!
Thank you, DatamanTheGreat! You are on an excellent plan yourself -- can't beat 5 lines for $110 on T-Mobile!
Very helpful info. I'd love to know if you have info about what to do when you live in a dead zone. With both AT&T and T-Mobile, we have to use a microcel (I think that's what you call it) in order for our cell phones to work at all as we have less than one bar cellular service and there are no plans to add towers in our area. I'd love to pay less than the $45/month we pay T-Mobile, but do these chaper provders work with one?
Helped me maked the decision to switch over to Visible from T-Mobile
I'm thinking the same. Did you go with Visible Base or the Plus plan?
@@camaro92350 i went with the Visible + because I have an Apple Watch
@@camaro92350yeah let me know how that is im tired of tmobile
the best review so far 👌🏼
-- Great information. -- Thanks!
You're welcome!
Wow ! Great work 🫶🏽👏🏽🔥
Thanks for the guide!
You're welcome!
Just watched it again .
It is excellent in the How ,When, Where, How of its subject matter.
This is the best finedut (financial, educational, and entertainment) I have seen all year.
Kudos
Your prior iteration of this was quite informative, as well. As a current US Mobile customer (dropped Verizon cause of your info), I hope you'll take another dive into their services again once "Project Deathstar" gets unleashed officially in about a month, please, cause I'm interested to hear your take on it.
I’ll definitely be sure to re-visit US Mobile later this year!
Just a thought when you give recommendations for family plans. Perhaps make two suggestions for small vs large families. In my case we have 7 lines, so even pointing out the cost per line above X number of lines can help. It's the only reason we've stayed with T-Mobile so long, since the lines reached a point of only being $20 each.
This video is simply amazing. So much valuable information here. After watching this and using a trial, after 17 years with the same carrier and a grandfathered plan I switched to Visible+. Just made sense for me, I get full coverage bars of 5G UW where I live. LTE coverage is perfect as well at full bars. I'm saving to much money with this. Thank you for the work you've done on this video, it is much appreciated.
You are most welcome.
no Helium Mobile? $20/month unlimited data. I've been using since December 2023.
USM works with both cdma and gsm towers. And the deals are great. Perfect carrier for me.
19:29 another reason to go with a major carrier is if you are a senior. We have been paying $70 with Tmobile for two lines with unlimited everything and international coverage. I have heard that that will be going to $40 per line soon.😢
Amazing video!
Visible plus sounds great if you had a single line. Us mobile is probably the best overall for 3 plus lines but we have tmobile 6 lines for 160 a month with netflix, etc on magenta. Until that changes i cant move on from that but if i was going to.. would try us mobile hands down. Thanks for the updated info as always!
You have a great deal on T-Mobile Magenta! Definitely a great call to continue staying with them.
I have visible plus with 3 lines all plus for 35 each not 45. I have been with visible for 4 years now. Only con is no physically store.
@@StetsonDoggetthi! If we have 3 lines for $140 and Home internet for $30 from TMobile should I switch to Visible 3lines for $75 and Home Internet from Verizon for $35? What do you think? We only use for talk&text and data.
@@24kmindshow do you like visible I been wanting to try it out but not sure how good it is I currently with Verizon have been for the 6 years now
Great job!
I use Visible. Its down right amazing in my area and for the cost, its super affordable.
Amazing vid, liked and subbed! This chart definitely depends on location, though. Planning on getting Mint Mobile Unlimited when I switch since it's $30/Mth with 40GB high-speed data since T-Mobile has the best coverage in my area
What about Metro by T-Mobile’s $25 unlimited plan?
@@StetsonDoggett it's not $25 a month until the first month is over then it's $25 with Autopay. Also including deals, Mint mobile has $15 a month for 3 months rn (you pay $45 for the months upfront too so that helps a lot as well)
What I learned testing the best carriers here in NYC is, it's very important to be with a company that has stores, and for that reason, I never consider MVNOS or anything other than AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile.
How come you prefer companies with physical stores? Curious to learn more!
is there a website that accurately has what bands cellphones support? i was using GSM arena but i cant trust it because it says my US variant of the S22 Ultra doesnt support N77 but i connect to it regularly.
Like the map app. US Mobile also has custom plans like mobile x
I find US Mobile's custom plans to be a bit pricy. I think MobileX has the custom plans down.
I am ready for a HOTSPOT / Plan round-up list just like this one.
I have spent at least 30 hours, searching and searching for a decent hotspot plan. I am basically looking for a backup ONLY source, say 3 days, to run my home Internet (which is my Home Phone, my Television and, well, my Internet) when the hurricanes find me in Texas.
Would love a video covering only AT&T and other carriers that work on AT&t as that is the only option i have. I AM currently Straight Talk but if i need a new phone or mew sim it doesn't sound like they will let me keep the GSM sim option.
I’ll add that to my video queue!
Dude...I don't know what to say. In the time of pay-for-everything-and-own-nothing you sure ROCKED!
I just swapped from t-mobile to visible, t-mobile just bumped my bill up by 20$ making it unjustifiable to me. Also got my fiancée on paying 100$ for two lines and two new phones. Also another benefit is we spend quite a bit of time each year at the lake and hunting we have no service at the mountain we go to for hunts and lake we fish at but with Verizon’s network we do in quite a few spots
i love your video love from jamaica
❤️
Great content as always! Saved over $60 thanks to you!
Hopefully that's $60 per month haha!
@@StetsonDoggett yes hahah😂
I was wondering if you can do a 2024 new all provider, Speedtest comparing every phone service. And seeing what phone service is faster in 2024
We have both Visible plans. I use the hotspot data the most so Visible+ is what I use. She has the Visible base plan for all that talking and playing phone games.
Currently on tmobile work perks plan I've had for 5 years. Basically it was magenta max.. 160 for 4 lines. Unlimited prioritized data, free data calls and texts in many countries. And other small things. Unfortunately checking data usage and we use way to much for any other the mvnos to match the price. Guess I'm sticking to it for now 😅
Costco members are now getting exclusive discounts on AT&T postpaid plans right now as well. Just found this out yesterday.
That would also be a good deal!
Can you make a video about this?
Don’t do it!
Let’s say your bill is $160 for 4 lines
$35 per line activation fee
$10 per line for auto pay, because discount doesn’t come until 3rd month.
Pro ration 30-60 days, so your bill is double first month,
Trade in credits don’t hit until 3rd month.
Any employee or teachers discounts don’t hit until 3rd month.
Plus fees and taxes.
Average first bill is about $400 plus dollars.
If I worked for the company named Cydcor, save your self.
@@llexplosionll9453 Those credits are retro active so eventually the bill should balance itself out within the 3rd bill because you will get credits that you missed out on the first 2 months. And as well there is a promotion right now where activation fees are waived
Do one for people with 2 lines. That seems to be the awkward spot for most carriers. Currently on the Tmobile 2 for $75 prepaid plan.
For two lines, it turns out it is typically best to put each line on its own plan suited for that line’s needs! Otherwise I’m a big fan of US Mobile’s 12GB shared data plan. $33/mo for 2 lines. Depends on what your data needs are though!
Hi Stetson, I would love to see you do a dive in on US Cellular's unlimited flat rate plan for $29. Postpaid perks with customer service and cheap service. Biggest con is no phone deals
Boost infinite user here, it has its flaws but it has improved overtime.
Glad to hear the service has improved for you! I’ve still gotta do a full review of them.
That $10 plan from US mobile is exactly what I’m looking for. Perfect for a second line that doesn’t need unlimited data or extra perks.
Can you do a review on Helium Mobile?
I always finance my phone directly with Apple. When you go that route the phone is unlocked and you can switch carriers whenever you want without having to pay it off first.
Same!
@StetsonDogget thanks for this fantastic video as always super helpful, a quick recommendation, can you include the promo exp date on the post? I just tried to activate using the Visible code and it has already expired =/, anyway keep up with your great content, is there an update on the Coverage Mapp for Android with the Speed test built-in like in iOS? Thanks
I added expiration dates! Strange that the Visible promo did not work for you. The terms and conditions on the Visible website say the promo is valid through 6/30/2024. The Coverage Map for Android should be updated in 2 months with the built-in speed test feature! It is taking a little longer than expected because we are re-building the Android app from the ground-up.
Nice list as usual.
When will you test Metro Stetson? The only real disadvantages that Metro has compared to other T-Mobile MVNOs is that they tie the SIM to the device but they have improved their website and app to make the process of switching work much better than they used to and hotspot data isn't included in the BYOD $30 ($25 with autopay) plan but is easy enough to work around on Android devices to the point I would say that shouldn't matter for anyone not using an iPhone. You also have to port a number to get the BYOD plan but that's not really something that should be an issue. Metro has an online activation portal for devices that support eSIM even and people can pick up a $10 SIM card at Walmart and use the activation portal too instead of having to deal with stores. No activation fees when signing up online.
I would say most people with decent T-Mobile coverage would be happier with Metro's BYOD plan than Visible basic since T-Mobile's network doesn't tend to suffer as much during congestion and Metro has access to some of T-Mobile's roaming partners. There is even a $10 per month HD addon which means when Visible finally kills off HD streaming on Visible+ 1.0 (it's already gone on 2.0 and they've said that it was never supposed to exist on Visible+ 1.0 either and will be fixed), for $35 a month on Metro, people can get unlimited data and HD streaming. Customer service is definitely better on Metro, especially if you would like to not have to chat with people, since you can just call 611.
I've had Metro since July and I've had service issues exactly zero times (I lost service when trying to transfer my eSIM between devices but after it happened a second time I realized it was just the Samsung eSIM issue, I never hear about it happening with other devices and transferring from my Samsung to my Pixel always worked, so I don't blame Metro for this as I see people having problems with eSIM on Samsung devices on other carriers too). Contrast that to Visible, which I've tried both basic and Visible+ multiple times over the years, and every single time there are issues. Whether it comes down to being unable to check out when signing up (has happened twice), losing 5G access (happened to me in December and required me to switch phones to fix it), having unusable data on the basic plan during severe congestion, having to make a new email address because they have blocked the use of Gmail aliases (which really just pushes me to use a temp mail service and a virtual card number I can just cancel to end my service), their app failing to provision the device properly, or the ineptitude of customer service, Visible is just a real headache to deal with.
Great information, thank you for sharing! I'll definitely have to give Metro another try soon,.
switching to Visible+ yearly plan on my next billing
Hello can you please do a video on best business cell phone plan ?
You can make a second video out of the part were you talk about how to transfer a number.
Great video thank you for creating that Excel spreadsheet! Also will we get a video for Helium soon I’m curious how they compare. Thanks!
It's not for everyone. If you start getting helium tokens be ready to declare them in your income tax as far as I know 😅
You only use tokens and crypto on Helium mobile if you want to reduce your monthly bills which I do not do. In the Los Angeles area I pay $21.92 monthly with all taxes and free and have never been slowed down on the T-Mobile network.
I have an older Metro plan 2 lines for $90 unlimited T, T and Data, 15 gigs of hotspot and Amazon Prime.
I want to transfer my existing landline to a cellphone. I want a plan that lets me buy my own cellphone and pay for a service plan annually when service is activated. I want no monthly phone bill for smartphone. I want to own it outright from day one, so I already purchased a new phone from best buy {unlocked). How do I proceed, once phone is in my possession?.
Mine is T-mobile. $30 after auto pay, unlimited hotspot, data in the US and out of the US, Free hulu, Netflix, Apple TV, Prime Amazon, Hulu, no throttle, and included 5G home internet for $25 monthly.
Well done!
Thank you, Anthony!
Surprised there’s no mention of Mint Mobile?
Also I’d say annoying thing of prepaid that should be standard across the industry is being able to get account info for point out when you sign up for service.
Took mint forever and a transfer to another adviser before they took a while to provide me the details in case I wanted to switch.
I don’t like the Mint is not taxes and other fees included.
Otherwise it’s been good despising if I want to reup with them or not
Appreciate your hard work and dedication sir 🫡 Thank you 🙏
You are welcome! 😃
Surprised you didn’t mention consumer cellular especially for family plans. They have been offering 2 lines for $65 then $15 a line after that up to 10 lines. Also for additional lines you add they are giving you the first 3 months for $1. Code is “3Months” per their site. You get 50 GB of 5G data then it does crawl to like 550kb after that. Helium has a plan to for $20 a month on the TMO network. They give you 35 gb data before slowing you down. Maybe something to add to the lineup here. There are so many variables yet most plans are very close to each other. Makes it stressful lol.
Best place to check an area for coverage is Walmart, go in see what carrier service is for sale in store. For example where I’m at Verizon is all that’s available. I find AT&T and T Mobile rural coverage is still bad.
Welp. That was the easiest subscribe button I've ever pushed. Will be sharing with everyone I know.
If this is your standard of video, many more subs to come! 🍻
I just got the visible + annual plan. Since my area has 5g ultra wideband access, I get unlimited priority data
Is visible worth the extra money?
hi @StetsonDoggett, I'm trying to open your comparison chart on a Mac but the zip extracor doesn't work, any help?
The comparison chart shouldn't need a ZIP extractor? You access it through a web browser. It's hosted on AirTable.
This is one of the most thorough videos on this subject and can literally save so many people money.
I'm on T-Mobile (grandfathered Simple Choice Family Plan) with 9 lines, paying $203.85 (~$23/line) with unlimited data + 4GB mobile hotspot. Once I leave this plan, I can never get it back.
I checked, and sometimes one of the phones uses about 10GB/data in a single month, and together the most data we used collectively is 42GB in a single month.
One question I have: I'm considering shedding some of these lines to cheaper plans, and thus saving money. What do you think?
I noticed you do not talk about any plans that can do large numbers of phone lines (like 9).
Looks like I can get the US Mobile Shareable Data plan with 50GB and 9 lines for $146/month (or $130/mo for 40GB). But, data does stop when you hit the limit, where with TMobile, data never stops (though it does slow down).
Maybe just do the US Mobile Unlimited Flex plan (paid annually) which equates to $15/mo/line, or $135/mo, and each line gets 10GB of premium data (which should be enough for all our lines). It seems like this is a better deal than the shared data deal. I think data won't stop as well, just deprioritized after 10GBs. Only thing missing is the hotspot, and I checked and only one line uses it... so maybe just that line pays the extra $30/year for the hotspot. So I think I'm getting everything I have now, and I'm saving $66/month, nearly $800/year in savings.
Yep, you're on the right track! Those plans are exactly what I was going to recommend. The $15 10GB plan is an unbeatable value. And while yes, data does shut off if you hit your limit on the pooled plan, you can easily add more data at any time for $2 per GB, or $16 for 10GB. You may even be able to get a pool for some lines and then put others on the $15 10GB option.
Tldr; USmobile for all in one, monthly, annual, etc. And Visible and Tello in between to cover the rest.
Pretty good summary!
Love me some US Mobile! 🙌
What about xfinity mobile? Or other companies like them.
What about spectrum mobile is that any good?
Stetson, you rock!
Thank you, TJ!
I am the looking for unlimited data plan for an mvno on att. What do you recommend?
I think Cricket and AT&T Prepaid are your best options! Cricket offers unlimited everything for as low as $25 per month if you pay annually. Otherwise your options are Cricket Unlimited or AT&T Prepaid Unlimited MAX. I'd personally probably consider Cricket for a better app experience for managing my account.
• Cricket Unlimited Annual ($25) - www.bestphoneplans.net/plans/cricket-unlimited-12-months
• Cricket Unlimited ($50) - www.bestphoneplans.net/plans/cricket-unlimited
• AT&T Prepaid Unlimited MAX ($55) - www.bestphoneplans.net/plans/att-prepaid-unlimited-max
I got US mobile 3 lines. Unlimited starter $79 a month.
I have a plan from Appalachian wireless it runs on the Verizon network And I have a iPad on it and I get access to Verizon’s 5G network and I have no cap on video streaming or hotspot I get 25GB of high speed data on my iPad and iPhone And on my iPad I can get over 100MBS on LTE and almost 500Mbps on Verizon’s 5G
How accurate is the expiration date on the discount codes for visible ? Do they expire those codes early? Or is the date 06/30 accurate? I’m waiting for my yearly plan from mint to expire in 20 days
The expiration date is accurate!
YES US MOBILE IS A GREAT COMPANY AND I LOVE THEIR APP IT'S SO COOL AND SIMPLE. THERE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS FIVE STARS AS WELL. I AM HAPPY I JOIN THEM.
Thanks I switched from Straight talk to Visible plus. Do have any information/resources for cheapest car insurance liability in NC? Thanks again :)
Nice video, but you missed Tello ! It is better than a lot of the prices in this video
Tello is also great! I think US Mobile is a bit cheaper though if you’re willing to pay annually. Are there specific data amounts from Tello that you think have better rates?
It depends on what you are looking for, indeed anually does make it cheaper sometimes, but personally when I was checking US Mobile's site I found the plans to be too inflexible. Also, it depends on if you use the phone a lot. I like that in Tello you can usually save some money for shedding unlimited talk, since I barely make any voice calls and when I do I use Google Voice Whatsapp etc.
In relation to these plans:
US Mobile $10 for 2GB, unlimited talk/text vs Tello $7 for 5GB, unlimited text, 100 mins talk, $9 for 500 mins talk
US Mobile $15 to pay anually for 10GB, $16 to pay monthly with Tello (100 mins talk, unlim. text) US Mobile $15 plan gives 1mbps data after too.So I guess better if you want to pay anually.
Of course it depends on the needs. Personally,my sweet spot is 15GB, I pay $21/month for that at Tello.
best phone plan for us number and have data in can and mex??
I'm confused how Visible+ beats US Mobile unlimited when choosing Verizon, since it has 100 GB priority & no video throttling. If there's more I don't know before I switch to US Mobile next month, I'd love to find out
Visible+ costs a bit less than US Mobile Unlimited Premium (or way less if you get the annual option), and it includes unlimited high-speed data, unlimited hotspot data, and a free smartwatch line, which I think are nice features.
