I used to be on Mint a couple years about. At the time, the Unlimited plan was like 35 GB of high speed data and then hard throttled down to very slow speeds.
I understand that now when you exceed 50 GB (not that I plan to regularly) that it is more of a priority bump down and more dictated by tower congestion.
In other words…I could still get 5G speeds or at least usable data, right?
I appreciate your help!
So I’m looking at the iPhone 16e with metro. $99.99 upfront with port-in and then a prepaid Mastercard for $100 after three months. You have to start out on the $50 plan. ($55 first month)
When I used to have Metro a year or so ago you could call in and get a retention rep on the phone after getting your phone and first month plan paid for and tell them you changed your mind. That you want to go to Visible for example for
Unlimited data for $25/mo.
With at least 3 lines I always found a rep willing to change to the $25 plan. Rarely had anyone not willing to.
Is it even possible today? I’m fine with keeping service for a year but ofc I’d rather pay $25/mo if I can get away with it. I’d rather not wait to change the plan after 3 months to get the gift card because then I can’t return it if I’m unsuccessful and have to keep a $40+ plan which doesn’t even have hotspot.
Thoughts?? Thanks for your help.
I have seen conflicting information on this and have searched posts trying to decipher it and can’t find anything definitive.
I’m in the U.S. most of the time. But I do travel overseas enough that this could be beneficial.
But while home…do we have access to all three networks or not? I have seen and realize T-Mobile is the primary and the core network behind everything.
Also have seen stuff about a second SIM for roaming. So AT&T? Verizon? Or both?
Would love some clarification before I jump in! Thanks all!
I used to shop at Walgreens a lot — stopped after Covid.
In regards to earning Walgreens cash on a transaction…
Back then, say you had a $5 Walgreens reward earned on a $20+ purchase. As long as the subtotal was $20+, you would have $5 added to your balance on your receipt.
But…if you also had one of those printer coupons for Walgreens Cash (say earn $5 on a $15+ purchase..) as long as you had them scan it before they pushed the button to finalize the transaction…they double stacked.
So in this case, you would see $10 (and the small change regularly earned) as earned on this purchase and added to your balance.
Does this still work?
Or does it take the better of the two? Or??
Just curious! Shopping there some again and have a clipped one and a paper one that I could use together and my $25+ purchase would used to have allowed both.
Some people used to say if the clipped coupon was for $20+ purchase and say paper was $15+, that to use both you had to buy $35.
Not true..not to the register anyway. Maybe policy, but idk.
The cashiers never knew because they couldn’t see I had a clipped coupon also. Not that most would care :)
Thanks for your input!!
