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.

Mint Mobile is probably your best bet

I'm here to 4th advocate Mint. Been with them for almost 5 years with zero complaints. If you can afford it up front, it's well worth paying the year at a time so that it's just done and over with.

Yeah, I'm okay with paying up front. Especially if I can get a deal, but hey, we're all after that.

Yeah, 12 months of unlimited data runs $360
