I have the same plan, but use it for places that insist on getting your phone number, that don’t need my phone number. So they get my second number that gets used a few times a year.
Tello is my second line provider, they are quite good. I’m worried that tmo will squeeze them out, or end their agreement or something. Tmo is already doing shenanigans to lycra mobile, afaik, and they ate up metropcs, mint, and ultra.
That would be a nightmare scenario where T-Mobile would start to squeeze MVNO’s for around the same price of someone paying for t-mobile after buying them. Honestly I don’t know if I would even have a mobile connection at that point anymore as I am quite poor! There are really no good alternatives out there for cheap service especially for my area and my terrible terrible smartphones that aren’t supported on any other networks. Especially! After AT&T decided to force manufacturers to pay for “HD Voice”which was just rebranded volte using the same bands that they had before most of them deciding not to for the cheaper brands of android smartphones out there.
Been rocking Tello for 25 dollars a month for 35 gigabytes of data.
Damn. I get 150GB for $15 here in Europe.
Tell me you don’t live in Germany without telling me you don’t live in Germany :D
A moment of silence for our German brothers and sisters. 🫡
Could have the same but decided to go for 35GB for ~7$ prepaid. If I like the carrier I may change to their 80GB 7$ subscription but I m not sure yet
I work from home and never call anyone so on Tello I pay $6/mo for 100 minutes + 1GB of data that pretty much functions as a 2FA delivery system.

2FA by SMS you mean? TOTP codes are generated offline

I trust tello. I don’t trust tmo.
