P.S. Some of the 'big' carriers, now and then, offer much less expensive 'plans'. Some event beat the prices in this article, if your 'Data' needs are limited.

I switched to US Mobile last year. I had a rough month or two with data not working properly, but it's smooth sailing now for $20/month for 5GB of data.

Ive got US mobile also.

Pros: unlimited talk and text and 1gb of data for 10 bucks a month, verizon towers, wifi calling, normal calls and text have gave me no issue.

Cons: Customer service is often poor to okay but they do have a chat based support which helps, data absolutely craps out in some areas.

Hope it helps readers choose.

fwiw I had good customer support experience when I accidentally signed up for the wrong plan

Thats good to know, perhaps they have seen it and are fixing it.

(looks at his Australian MVNO plan of unlimited calls and text and 100GB for ~USD30 and his ~2.3TB of monthly rolled-over data available)

Oh , it was 80GB a month, now it's 100. Cool.

Anyway, uh, that's great, mate, good to hear you're getting value for money over there compared to what's normally offered.

Competition is a good thing, keep encouraging it.
