@gbranscombe

I would suggest you go with Mint Mobile or Tello Mobile.

They gave the best priced monthly plan and uses a SIM.

You can check them online.

@gbranscombe

Remember, if you don’t keep up with your payment longer than 90 days. Your account will be closed and you will loss your number.

So switch to the $15 plan on AutoPay.

HI @gbranscombe Other prepaid providers to consider

Ultra Mobile Tourist. Best overall.
T-Mobile Prepaid. Best prepaid data plan.
AT&T Prepaid.
Mint Mobile. Best for extended stays.
Lycamobile. Best value.
Cricket Wireless. Best data only.

There's a post down in the lounge by someone talking about another esim service.

For sim service I have my eye on red pocket mobile via ebay. Prepay for a year and it averages out to $2.50USD per month. Great for low usage. Supplement with a voip app and of course focus on wifi sites. And they have add-ons.

Adding - I had also been looking at ultra mobile paygo but red pocket was a little sweeter and a little less. Be aware of the possibility of a provider locking your phone to them. Also that the provider is properly transitioning from 3G.
