I was recommended Mint but had a completely disastrous experience just trying to get service with them. They could not get my phone number moved over from Verizon even though I was unlocked and had the port out PIN.
Ended up going with Ting and it's been fine. Service is trash sometimes/doesn't work at all occasionally but I also don't want to live a life where I need my phone 24/7 so the dirt cheap pricing is attractive enough for me to stay.

- yomlica8 3y agoI believe a lot of online services refuse to do phone verification with VOIP so there's a cost to going this route. I wouldn't be surprised if they start to block prepaid phones soon as well, they already do for some online game registrations. I hope I'm wrong though, I exclusively use prepaid phone cards to avoid these billing scams.
