US Mobile Customers among us?

[cp2k]

Just curious if we have any US Mobile customers among us, and if so what are your thoughts on the service/reliability? I'm on Verizon now, but their coverage has declined a great deal where we live due to the much lower reach of 5G signals. When I'm at home we rely on WiFi calling 99% of the time, and the same holds true at work.

I've been talking to someone recently who has AT&T Wireless in our area, and they claim they have real 5G coverage here. Looking around I discovered US Mobile, and was attracted by their Multi Network feature and their ability to swap between the three carrier networks.

My brother uses them on their "Dark Star" network (ATT) and he is very happy with it.

That's what I was looking at trying. I have an old landline number "parked" that I can port out to US Mobile. My plan was to add it as a secondary line to test things out. If it goes well I'd use the multi-network feature to port my primary line to them too, giving me access to Verizon and ATT networks.

I have been with them for around 18 months, Nary an issue. I started with their verizon option, and swapped to T-Mobile, since Verizon is so congested here. They just upgraded us to 70GB/MO on the Base plan, Essential I think they call it. for 25.00 a month cant beat it. I've had no need for customer service so I can't speak on that. Iphone 13 pro max, if you're wondering.

IIRC the "Dark Star" network is uncapped (truly unlimited) at the moment. If that's something you need, it might be worth looking in to.

On Xfinity Mobile and was considering USMobile but now it seems like XFinity Mobile includes unlimited talk, text and data even while traveling elsewhere in foreign countries.

US Mobile is excellent both for choice and customer service. As soon as my free year of Xfinity Mobile is up, I'm porting right back to USM.

I've been on US Mobile for a couple years, no complaints.

Yep, that reduction in coverage has caused me to be a lot busier lately installing cell amp systems.
Installed at a Jail and Sheriff's Office recently because their phones got to where they went into SOS mode inside the buildings. Doing the Election Office Tuesday.

I use US Mobile to get a month of service on Verizon's network here and there when traveling with no complaints. I plan to switch both my lines from AT&T Prepaid to US Mobile when my annual renewal comes around in November.

Happy to report they now have excellent cell service. Went from -123db on LTE to -103 on 5G.
Thought I was going to freeze to death. Gov workers KNOW they like their buildings cold. It was around 100 degrees outside so I'd get all hot and sweaty only to walk into a literal freezer.
