Hi,
I'm currently living in the suburbs, USA. I've been using T-Mobile for roughly a year and I'm looking for options to migrate over essentially because data is unreliable and coverage keeps dropping at random places, such as my college or the warehouse I work at. When there's coverage, the service is acceptable, yet it has its hiccups from time to time. What bothers me the most is the unreliability of the coverage in the area, not to mention the big city.I've been asking my classmates, coworkers and friends. There's mixed opinions as to which carrier I should try out. Boost Mobile seems appealing as it's cheaper and has very few good reviews among my circle, which signals less users and more likelihood to be stable.

I use MintSim. They have the cheapest single-line plans I could find anywhere. Only catch is that you have to pay for the whole year up front to get the maximum discount (no pay as you go or monthly billing). I actually prefer it this way but that could be a deal breaker for some. My single-line plan only works out to $20/month with 5GB of high speed data along with unlimited talk and text.

Also, what network does MintSIM even use? Do they have their very own network?

This is actually an intriguing option. Given that it's prepaid, you did not give out your personal information other than your name and mailing address, correct? How did it work? How long have you been with them? How's the service overall? Speed rate? Thanks for chiming in!

Service is good where I live. They just need payment details along with your name and address though it might be possible to buy a sim in a brick and mortar store with cash and no payment details.
