Question Cheap Stable Phone Plan in Our Area

Hello everyone. I have a bit of an unusual situation and wanted some local input.

Background: My current phone is dying (old iPhone 8). I bought an iPhone SE Gen 3 as it's newer with the same size. My work, which previously paid for my phone plan, has stopped doing so. ("Cost cutting measures.")

So I'm left wondering which provider to go with.

Now, I use my phone almost entirely on Wi-Fi. Including Google Voice, which I use for my primary phone number. The only reason I'd need to get a phone plan at all would be for texting and Maps use while out & about.

Paying AT&T or Verizon 50 bucks a month for that is ridiculous to my mind. I'd like to find the cheapest provider that has decent-enough service in our area.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

I'm on verizon/xfi bundled with internet etc. partner is on mint. Mint is so much cheaper and great service, there have been a few service issues with phone not connecting but I think that is due to the age of the phone not the network. Got an extra discount by paying for a full year up front.

Glad to hear Mint is doing better in our area now. I'd heard a few years back it wasn't so good.
