I don't really get why more people don't use MVNOs like Google Fi or Mint rather than ATT&T and Verizon.

I figure if the seller is incentivized to provide the best service to the highest profit margin/least volatile customers. https://www.reddit.com/r/NoContract/comments/oaophe/data_prioritization_policies_of_the_carriers_and/?utm_content=body&utm_medium=post_embed&utm_name=00717909814145bca8687ea469f2ee05&utm_source=embedly&utm_term=oaophe https://www.reddit.com/r/NoContract/comments/oaophe/data_pri...
- mox1 5y agoAll of the major providers wholly own a MVNO now. The only difference is that during times of congestion you are not first line. Other than that it is probably the same billing systems, policies, etc. Unless you need to be first priority on a congested tower, not much reason to actually be on Tmo,Verizon,ATT.
