It's similar to how legislators don't take bribes because that is illegal, instead they take "campaign contributions", which is totally legal and has the exact same effect. Remember the old adage, if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it isn't a duck unless you call it one.

It’s even more expensive in Canada since the population is less than America's. This means the infrastructure cost to setup wireless towers is shared with fewer people making it more expensive... this is why cell phone plans are cheap in India/China because there are more people to share the cost with.

I keep my phone on WiFi at home, offices, etc when offered. That covers so much of my data usage that my actual cell plan is just *1GB* per month. Even then, I only use about half of it on average. The rest gets rolled over, leaving me gigs in reserve for the rare occasion I need a lot data or to be away from WiFi for an extended period. Also to note, I refuse to install games with video ads, use the data saver phone settings, disable auto play on web videos, etc. That saves a lot on data. Some steaming services also offer "offline" options to download on WiFi and watch later. There are so many ways to reduce data usage and slim down your cell bill. Seriously, my yearly service cost is less than some people pay per month. And yes, I buy my phone outright, usually refurbs.

And the so-called unlimited data isn’t really “unlimited” at all. They slow it down so much it’s practically unusable. They should not be allowed to do this.

video is excellent ,informative ,to understand the cell phone bills- thanks.

i changed into MVNO last month, my monthly bill became 28 from 85. Of course it was possible because I filled 2 years contract and fully paid my iphone XR. my new carrier is Circles of Life(maybe same thing is in the US too), and the service quality is so far so good.

Many he does, I have Mint. 25 dollars a month (300) per year for 12gb of 4g Lte and 5g. Also you don’t get charged for going over with free 2g.

I like that they're comparing a limited time offer for new customers at Mint to the regular price for other carriers, and not disclosing that. Mints unlimited plan costs $90/m after the initial 12 month welcome period. Their lowest plan is $45/month after the initial 3 month welcome period. Those prices are more expensive than buying a single line 5G plan direct from T-Mobile instead of going through a reseller. The network performance is the same as T-Mobile, only they won't get access to all of T-Mobiles 5G features straight away so you'll be stuck on 4G for awhile This is an advertisement pretending to be news.

Tips: 1. Know your needs 2. Know your budget 3. Read your bill 4.. Pay your bill when due In these times, you need to know how much you consume. Of course, you also need to know how much you are earning. Then read what's on your bill and pay it before the due comes. When you pay your bill late, there is a late fee (included in your contract). When you pay your bill to reconnect your line again, there is a reconnection fee/s (included also in your contract). *You get an iPhone device when your salary is for Motorola only.

Mint mobile is a private company, they are not traded on the exchanges. Which in my purview actually allows me to trust them more. A small number of owners can be shamed into doing things right, or may even have the moral backbone to do it right from the beginning. When you have potentially thousands of owners, some of which don't even know they are owners because of how hands off and diversified they are, the only common factor binding those owners together is the desire for growing profits. This fact is part of what drives public companies to continually push the limits in gouging customers.

I hate paying AT&T for my service, but they are the only provider that works inside my home. I tried: Verizon, T-mobile, and AT&T. Only one service works. T-mobile checked their map in their store for me last week - still does not cover my home. When you are stuck with one provider, it means a 5 Gig plan for four phones every month costs about $130 after fees and taxes. Want unlimited? That goes up to $175 a month. It it absolutely awful - but at least the cell phone works in an emergency when the power goes out. For those who don't know, Mint Mobile's network is T-Mobile. That 5X speed increase with 5G? Only if you buy a new phone costing each around $800 to $1000 dollars.

I feel like one reason people here pay so much is because they're financing a ridiculously overpriced phone on top of their service. Nowadays it's normal for people to buy $800-1200 phones every couple of years like it's no big deal, even when a $200-400 phone would work just as well.

My experience with Verizon was the worst in my life. Their unlimited GREED was beyond belief !!!!!!!! And now they have the nerve to send me cards imploring me to return to them !!!!!!!! I hope as a business they become a huge failure. Get lost Verizon !

I spent 2121₹ (30$) for a year in india which includes 2 gb per day data and unlimited calls and messages. Data is so cheap here when first jio came out (one of the largest telecommunication companies in india) it offered free unlimited data for an year. Lucky to be here

Mint mobile is genuinely a good product, I would honestly recommend it to everyone especially on the East Coast.

If T-mobile is solid in your area, Mint mobile will be fine

My sister had to fly to US for a moment once (literally fly in and fly out). She got billed bonus 50$ because she didn't turn off data and her phone used 1mb of data...

This is insane. In Italy I pay € 10/month for unlimited calls and 50 GB of data. Generally across Europe the fares are very very low and the coverage stunning.

@brian fike I live in the U.S. I'm American. Denmark does not spend Billions of dollars marketing and advertising. That cost is always passed to the consumer. And they don't push technologies that aren't ready just for money and to sell more phones. 5G is no where near remotely ready in the U.S. You barelyyyy get some of it in the largest 5 inner cities in the US. But phone companies make it seem like it's been ready the last 3 years

I have had a cell phone since the 1980s. Back then most people had their phones mounted in their cars. At the time the only handset was a size of a brick. Back then it was around $1,200 to have your phone installed in your car. The plans that they offered was never free minutes except after 9:00 p.m. and before 6:00 a.m. . What you did you picked your plan paid for that and then depending on the plan you got charged less per minute. My average phone bill back then was anywhere from $250 to $400 a month. At that time I spent a lot of time working while I was traveling from place to place. Also you had to watch roaming fees which charge almost double for every minute. Today you really have to read the fine print when you sign up with a new carrier or even change your plan with your current carrier. Verizon at least once a week sends me an email wanting me to go with their unlimited plan. They even offer 6 months free service of the paid channels. If you accept their offer down in the fine print you will find that they can cut your speed during peak times and there's nothing you could do about it. That's not unless you're like me when I refuse to upgrade to that. With internet everywhere I always have carry over data and have never even come close to running out. It's not worth it to me to have them regulate my speed just because of what I use my phone for.

Yo Ryan! We could use some of that here back home in Canada!
