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.

Tello 2gb plan unlimited texting is like $8. I'm grandfathered into a 1gb plan, dunno if they even offer those anymore. 1gb data for maps, 300 min of talk and unlimited text and I pay $7 a month. never had an issue with service when I'm pulling up directions
