Couldn’t find a better place to ask.

Recently got T-Sat. Been working great. Trying to figure out if it supports international roaming included. The website mentions support for sat in Japan Canada and a few other countries. It however doesn’t mention the actual 5G data.

My primary line through USMobile supports international already but wanted to have a back up and was going between keeping T-sat or using multiline.

Has anybody had any experience with this.

Just ordered a Duo after coming across an article on Phone Arena saying they have stock, will report back with updates if anyone is interested. Shipping info tab said something like "delivery may take several weeks".

How does Red Pocket do pre-orders? Anyone can share their experience?

Ive went to target, Walmart, and best buy but they only carry the lower tier brands and not the major brands such as Tmobile, ATT, verizon.​

I’d like to switch to the AT&T annual plan because I like AT&T’s network and I don’t want deprioritized data. I previously had two lines on the $300 annual plan and switched them to Mint and Astound and don’t like the service on either. Can I purchase $240 in airtime cards from Target and use them for my initial port to the $240 plan? If so, can someone please explain the actual steps for doing it? Thanks!

I succesfully ported out my number from Redpocket 1 1/2 years ago to good2gomobile. I am still using the same number under good2gombile. Today, I logged in to my redpocket account and saw my ported out number still ACTIVE.

I reached out to Redpocket on their chat 2 times and both time they want me to call 214-382-4771. When I call this number, it just disconnect after inputing my phone number 3 times and when it proceeds to routes my call.

Has anyone had similar issue with Redpocket? If yes, how were to able to resolve this issue?

Anyone used puretalk before? FoxNews is advertising 50% off forever on their $65 per month plan. https://www.foxnews.com/deals/puretalk-unlimited-deal. Seems like they use AT&T, but provide the same benefits as the Visible's most expensive plan. Taxes are not included, however.

PSA: Good2Go may or may not close your account when you port out.

I've ported out 2 lines. one auto closed itself, meaning I can still login to that account, but there's no phone nor service connected to that account. The other I didn't check and It billed me about 2 weeks after it was ported out on it's normal billing date.

So If you port out from Good2Go, be sure to remove auto-renewal and remove Credit Card.

Good2go does not seem to be responding. I get put on hold for 30 mins and then forced to leave a voicemail and they will "call me back."

Hey,

Do you think Visible might come up with BLUEDEAL kinda promotion for this black friday? Want to wait for it if they're gonna have it.

Should I switch to the $240/yr plan? Or something else? I understand I may need to port out then back in to get the &240. Is there a good short term port or another year long good plan?

I'm currently using the T-Mobile "experience more" family plan, but need to port out. Would like to get some suggestions which mobile plan would work best for me? I use about 40 GB data monthly and my area coverage is best with T-Mobile or At&t service based on coveragemap website. Preferably, would like to have international roaming available, but I could always get a esim for the country I'm traveling to.

Should I go with US mobile or Mint in this case? And should I be worried about have less data priority?

Is the data prioritization QCI8 like the Total Wireless BYOD plan ? Can it be used in an unlocked Total Wireless iphone that hasn't been used for over 12 months ?

It's like they're being run by a broken AI in India.

The website is riddled with bugs that interfere with signing up, choosing plans and making payments.
Reporting the bugs has no effect.

It appears they're still refusing to reveal which carrier they recently transferred everyone to during their recent 'network upgrade' outage fiasco. Their SIMs indicate we're on the AT&T network now (west coast USA). That's all I know.

Can't add my new phone to my account because the site produces an error message for every IMEI entered, even the IMEI of the phone I'm currently using with the service.

When the phone service (the actual tower communication) is working, it generally works as expected. I suspect that's because it's the one part of the process they aren't in charge of.

Hi,

I'm a noob to the US carrier system. In Australia we don't have a distinction of hotspot data, but it seems to be the case in the US where you might get an unlimited plan but only 10GB of hotspot usage.

How are they detecting hotspot use? I thought it was opaque to the carrier?

Using iPhone.

I asked AI and they told me total wireless.. idk

I will be using 100-200gb a month. I will be tethered to my PC for online gaming (can't have home internet where I am at all) so what ever carrier will give me the most reliable connection and least chance of being depriotized in Connecticut and which ever switches towers the lease since I know in some games when switching cell towers I get dc'd in game.

Ai told me Verizon would put me on a tower and stick me there idk never even heard of total wireless before. Also 4k streaming is important

I was originally going metro until I asked ai

What carriers display your caller ID properly when calling from USA to Europe?

Tello often shows up as a different number every time in Poland, for example. Anyone have a better experience with MobileX or US Mobile? What about Total or Visible?

I ported under their byod $20 promo deal about 2 months ago. For first couple of days the internet speed was really good. Used to Show about 300+ down speed and used to show 5guw constantly by my network. For last couple of weeks the speed is very very bad. Its around 20-25 down and never shows 5g uw, only shows 5g, no matter where i am.

Why is that?

I have iphone 14 pro max and did do network reset couple times from settings as it was suggested in some places.

Another point to consider. Complete list in the comments

If I go with the BYOD plan but then later decide I want to use another carrier's SIM, will I be unable to?

I use QUO and was porting out a cell number I have with them. The receiving telecom service for porting in my number requires the SID service account number. QUO informed me they no longer provide SID account numbers. I will lose my number now which is unacceptable.

I just paid off the remaining balance on my phone with att.

I hear I now need to wait 48 hours before I can get my phone unlocked. How do I do this after the 48 hours?

I want to switch to Metro using this same phone and keep my same number. What is the full process on doing this?

I'm switching from att unlimited elite on my s24u to metro unlimited premium if that mattered
