I've had some experience with Mint Mobile, but couldn't get it to activate where I live. The sim worked fine visiting Vegas, but back in my home state, even though it runs on T-Mobile's network and T-Mobile was fine, the same sim with a phone number with an area code in my home state didn't work in my home state. So, maybe it works, but the one time I tried it wouldn't work and Mint couldn't get it working just kept saying everything is fine and it should be working.
Tried StraightTalk Wireless after that, 2 different sims so far, no issues, other than I had to get a new sim when the account was inactive for 6 to 8 months. But at least now their sim packs come with both Verizon and notVerizon compatible sims in the same pack now.
What state are you in? I'm in VA and considering going from Google Fi to Mint mostly because we would go from minimal data usage to unlimited for about the same price. Definitely not making the switch if you're also in VA and can vouch that it doesn't work here.
nowhere near VA, I'm in AZ, no experience with it there.
