I used to love Mint, but since the population boom in Central Florida it is entirely unusable due to being a low priority network. This means on many occasions you will have almost no bandwidth, I am talking cannot stream Spotify bad. The worst IMO is traffic jams, the one time I really want to listen to music and it will start cutting out.
If you're downtown there is a 80% chance you will not even be able to load a website or youtube, its basically unusable.
I know T-Mobile is working to up capacity, but I had to switch to Google Fi to get any real reliability.
- dougmwne 4y agoCheck out visible, which is a Verizon sub brand. 25 bucks if you are ok with being deprioritized, 35 if you want high priority. I think it’s the next best deal on the market after Mint, and if t-mobile doesn’t work well in your area, you aren’t getting much value anyway.
- ezfe 4y agoWe use Visible in my household - the deprioritized service level didn't work great but the prioritized price has worked great.
- wwweston 4y agoExactly the path I took -- Mint was nice enough early, deprioritization became too frustrating, Visible deprioritized wasn't better, Visible w/ priority has been acceptable.
