I'm on a prepaid plan. I had the maximum plan (unlimited data, unlimited voice) for two decades but with home office, I spend most time indoors so I've switched to a <10% cost prepaid plan which works mostly fine.
Some months my data volume doesn't last till the end of the month. I use SMS instead of the Signal protocol then.
Yes I might be a minority, but if you're not the market leader, cutting out minority groups of users will not make you more successful.
What's your mission: Giving secure communication to everyone or become the next WhatsApp?
- Gasp0de 4y agoYour data is completely switched off when you run out? In Europe it would be illegal to market this tariff as a "flatrate" and typically data plans are just reduced in bandwidth once your volume is used up.
- KingOfCoders 4y agoNo, but it's very unreliable and Signal doesn't work (Germany, Deutsche Telekom, Android, Mi 11 Ultra).
- culturestate 4y ago> In Europe...typically data plans are just reduced in bandwidth once your volume is used up "Reduced" is a very kind characterization, even if it's literally true - in my experience (with Vodafone and Three) this means ~64kbps which makes even messaging apps functionally unusable. Since I started traveling more, I use my eSim slot for a ~7€ data-only plan from one of the discount MVNOs just to avoid being caught in this situation.
