Mint's unlimited is $30/mo when purchasing a year up front. The only "plus" is taxes and fees. It includes tethering. So even with whatever deal you've got going on its still $324/yr cheaper, $972 cheaper after a three-year commitment (if applicable in your case). The "free" phone only applies to Unlimited Plus and Unlimited Ultimate. At a single line for Plus that's $80/mo. $960/yr. $2,880 over that three-year commitment. But either way, I don't bother with the "unlimited" plans. You're going to get de-rated after 30-40gigs anyways on Verizon. > Unlimited data is restricted to on-device smartphone usage. After exceeding 30 GB/mo of 5G Ultra Wideband, 5G, or 4G LTE mobile hotspot data, mobile hotspot data reduced to speeds up to 3 Mbps when on 5G Ultra Wideband and 600 Kbps when on 5G / 4G LTE for the rest of your monthly billing cycle. https://www.verizon.com/support/important-plan-information/ https://www.verizon.com/support/important-plan-information/ "Unlimited" plan you're paying $80/mo for that you're going to get 600Kbps if you really treat it as "unlimited". I personally don't even use all of my 15GB a month. I get lots of people live different lifestyles, but a lot of people don't need "unlimited". So really, I'm not even spending $360/yr, I'm spending $240/yr. $444/yr cheaper than your plan. $1,332 cheaper after three years.
