Happy T Mobile Tuesday everyone. 😄 

Have you ever won anything from the drawings? I've gotten a $20 Walmart girft card once, no idea how common it is to actually win something though

 

 

Edit: @techmanprieto You might want to say if you only want people in the US to vote, otherise you'll probably get a lot of "other" answers that will throw off your results. Unless you do want non-US people to vote, in which case I'll shut up.

Me no, but my mom has won an Amazon Gift card. I use the gas savings every week. I generally also do Food if they provide free checkers or BK. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

I pass two on my way to and from work. I also have one around the corner from me and have another on my way to the grocery store.

None of these. I'm in Canada.

I'm with Lucky Mobile with my Samsung A52 that I bought unlocked on Amazon.

Lucky Mobile is a subsidiary of Bell. They offer cheap pre-paid contract free plans for people who just want a basic service.

I pay $15 CAD per month for the followings :

- 100 call time minutes (I almost never use this, got a free VOIP home phone if I really need to call someone all across of Canada, too)

- Unlimited SMS/MMS (I use this a lot)

- 250MB of mobile data (everywhere I go has wifi, even busses have wifi these days. I mostly use this data in case of emergency. I average around 15MB per month, mostly from background usage of Google services)

T-Mobile. 
 

If you have a bunch of lines you really can’t beat their prices. Plus, their 5G implementation seems to be miles ahead of the rest.

I use Telenor in Bulgaria.

The current mobile plan I have is for about 21BGN (~ $13 USD) per month. I get 10 000 MB mobile data and I don't remember how much free call minutes and SMS, but more than I can use, that's for sure. Sadly the new plans are much worse than my current one, will keep this as long as possible.

Aldi Talk in Germany.

 

I pay 13€ a month for 6GB of data and unlimited calls and SMS inside of the EU. Basically the cheapest option i can find that has the data cap i needeach month.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

A more serious answer? Telkomsel, through their KartuHalo postpaid plan. 12GB of data for around 10$ with unlimited access to their local first party app service.

When I saw the topic I was 100% sure someone had to make THAT joke.

Vodafone. I get 6G data, few hundred minutes of calls and some sms. Mainly data gets used. I pay around 38TL, which is around USD4-5. I could do fine with even a 1G package but what is the point of saving less than a dollar compared to this package. Roaming fees insane with Vodafone though, I will need to get a prepaid German/Bulgarian sim card next time I am out of the country.

None of those exist in the UK. (Well, T-mobile sorta does, but IIRC it's just a brand of EE and they're phasing it out)

Personally I use Asda Mobile, which recently switched from using EE to Vodafone's network. It's pretty cheap. Not the cheapest available option, but I find the coverage to be excellent, management of the account straightforward, and when I've had to phone customer service the staff have been great.

 

My only real gripe with them was that features for online management of the account were very limited so things still had to be accessed by calling//texting an automated service. However they recently had a massive system upgrade (coinciding with the switch from EE to Vodafone) which fixed all of that, so what they offer is pretty much perfect for me now.

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.

None of those exist in Canada, I personally use Fizz (it’s basically Vidéotron). It’s quite a cheap provider, I have 12 GB (at full LTE speed btw) of data for 35$/month, with unlimited phone and text. The only issue is that I only have coverage in Québec and VoLTE isn’t available, that doesn’t really bother me. I also have to mention that I always buy my phones, I really hate contracts. 

Bell, Telus, Rogers and Vidéotron are just way overpriced. They offer 4 GB for 40$/month, not even slightly competitive. The prices in Canada are the most expensive in the world, if not, they’re pretty close to being the most expensive. It’s so dumb how you guys in the UK and Europe get unlimited data for like 35£ or 40€ per month. It’s also « true » unlimited data, that doesn’t exist in Canada, after 10, 20 or 50 GB they slow your connection to 512 Kpbs. Those speeds are not usable for anything.
