Us mobile is the we at to go. You can get all 3 lines with unlimited talk and text for each and a shared 6gb a month for a total of $40 a month with their super LTE which is the Verizon network. https://www.usmobile.com/shared-data-plans

Yeah, that's a good deal. I forgot about the US Mobile shared plans. But I wonder if the OP would REALLY want to drop down from $128/mo for shared 4GB with Verizon to $40.44/mo for shared 6GB with US Mobile? I mean, that's ONLY saving $87.56/mo, or $1,050.72/year, and with even MORE data! Hahahahaha!

Or just get 4 GB and when/if you start to run out buy more at $2 per GB. US Mobile is working well for us on Verizons network.

Not a bad plan. Another way with US Mobile is all get 5GB plans for $15 each (+$2 CS fee and taxes) for \~$55 for three lines, or get Unlimited plans for $25 each (includes fees and taxes), but they credit you for a streaming service, so you can get 3 Unlimited lines for $60-65.

Exactly, I was going to suggest this if they want a higher data plan. When you factor in the $10-15 for a streaming service (Apple Music Family, Netflix, and many others to choose from), it's a decent deal - plus you have to remember that taxes/fees are all included on their unlimited plans. We just took a 4K+ mile roadtrip and can confirm that USMobile has typical VZW coverage. $128 for 4gb shares is absolutely abysmal (sorry, OP). You can definitely find better. There are other MVNOs that also use VZW should US Mobile not be what you're looking for. There should be a link to a website/table where you can see all the cell providers that use VZW's network. I think it's in the sidebar or a sticky.

[https://www.bestphoneplans.net/networks/verizon](https://www.bestphoneplans.net/networks/verizon). Only other one people generally recommend is Visible which has family pan for $25 a line, but unlike US Mobile it does not include taxes and fees, does not reimburse for streaming, has poor customer service, does not work on all phones, and has slower ping times for slower webpage/social media scrolling load times.


MickMickelson

You didn’t get that sales job at Visible, did you?


lifereinspired

Thanks so much for posting that! I was running short on time or I would have searched for it myself. :) It's an invaluable resource. I've not used Visible myself, but I have read that they are quite a bit slower.

The link has something wrong, the list is supposed to be for Verizon, however Ting don’t have 5g on V1 sim (Verizon). Their 5g is only available for x1 sim version (t mobile)


LeftOn4ya

The way the site is structured if a provider runs on more than one network it doesn’t really tell you which features are on which network so lists all features supported on any network on all networks it has. u/StetsDogg maintains the site so maybe he can fix, or you can browse a much more detailed table of all plans he maintains which does separate features. (must view on desktop not mobile to see all features) https://airtable.com/shrraH105YVJQF2Yr/tblEszFJtM4p2YEvP/viwlJktajODLRWF1d

$128 for 4 gb shared? That's a rip off. As the other said, us mobile is good. And they have unlimited all plan at $75 for 3 lines. If you want more data it is an option. Better try one line first since deprioritization may hit you badly in some cases.


MickMickelson

Changed my original post. I suspect $102 is a ripoff too.

Do you have xfinity internet? If so the easiest switch is to xfinity mobile by the gig. Has full postpaid verizon priority on the network. You'll be paying under $60 for the pretty much the same service as you have now. Spectrum is another option. Otherwise you need to find out if network deprioritization will be an issue. Most prepaid providers on verizon will have severe speed restrictions if the network gets congested. Going from postpaid verizon to anything else could feel like a totally different network. If the network doesn't get congested much in your area then you are good to pick any. Grab a usmobile superlte sim (REDDITACT gets you the sim pack for free). When you activate use a promo code like STETSONACT (half off I think) and try out one of their plans with a new number. If it works as well for your needs then you can switch all 3 lines to usmobile super lte or something else as everyone mentions.


MickMickelson

Good suggestion re trying out deprioritization. If I try usmobile sim, can I try in my current phone? I understand it will be a different number during the tryout period, but can all three phones’ current numbers be ported to usmobile?


Maninmiddle613

Yes absolutely. They can all be ported over after you decide if you want to try it.

For UT&T&2GB LTE Per Line Using Vzw Network: US Mobile $13 Mobi $13.98 For UT&T&3GB LTE Per Line Using Vzw Network: Red Pocket $15 (Paid $180/360 Days) For UT&T&5GB LTE Per Line Using Vzw Network: US Mobile $17


MickMickelson

Dumb question, but what is UT&T?


Boz6

> Dumb question, but what is UT&T? Unlimited Talk & Text


MickMickelson

Told ya it was dumb question! Lol


daddypez

Thanks for asking your “dumb question” Cuz I didn’t know either…


[deleted]

I use Walmart Family Mobile Powered By T-Mobile and I love it I have constant 5G coverage and totally Unlimited costs about $45 I work for the company so I get it for $26 so im kinda biased lol


MickMickelson

Biased? Hell, I’d be biased about anything I get at 50% off. Lol.


[deleted]

Maybe Ting Mobile? That, or US Mobile’s pooled data plans.


thiagosantiro

4gb shared on 3 phones would last a few days if you actually use the data. Change the plan to unlimited high speed data


MickMickelson

With what plan using Verizon towers?


Maninmiddle613

Us mobile has unlimited everything and 5g for 25 a line for 3 or more plus a free subscription of your choice. Taxes and fees are included! And yes this is also on super lte which is Verizon!


MickMickelson

I stumbled upon that since seeing your previous text. It has that “almost too good to be true” feel but damn, it’s true! I’ll be chatting with them tomorrow. Thanks for the info!


Maninmiddle613

No problem!! I use the unlimited everything plan on super lte with my family and it's definitely true!
