This has only started recently, less than a week. My battery is just getting its ass kicked.

Spectrum is so bad bro. The line is $40/mo for a 50GB data cap.
US Mobile is $34/mo (when you pay for the year up front) and includes 100GB of QCI 8 data on Verizon and then truly unlimted data @ 1Mbps. They support AT&T (darkstar), T-Mobile (GSM), and Verizon (warp) and if you activate via eSIM, you can change them at any time. So if you’re going on a trip and you don’t get service with Darkstar, you can swap to Warp for the weekend if you want.
I’ve been using them for about a year now and they’re badass. I pay $96/yr (I pay up front) for service. Only includes 2GB of data, but I’m home or at work all the time, so it’s not been an issue. Everything else is unlimited.
I pay 5.99€/month for unlimited voice and SMS, plus 200gb/month. 4G only, no 5G, but who cares.
For a little bit more (9.99€ without shopping for offers) you get unlimited* data on 5G too.
But in my mind that way too expensive.
Excuse me but what the hell are these prices? 34$ a month for 100GB of 5G data? 8$ a month for 2GB? This is a rip off
Lol go look at german mobile carrier prices.
Then you will actually cry.
Are you insane? The same plan at Verizon is $65+/mo and it uses traffic shaping to limit your video quality to 480p. lol. It’s effectively half the price. Not even to mention that on Verizon you’re limited to 60GB/mo;
You realize there are other providers than verizon, and places outside the US, right? The US is absolute shit for everything like this, service providers of both line Internet and wireless data. An example, here in Sweden it’s about $12 a month for 50GB with unlimited calls and texts, and no “traffic shaping” (never even heard about that). 100GB is $17. And how the fuck would you use up more than 60GB of mobile data per month?
I don’t pay 40 a month lmao. I pay $60 for two lines on spectrum both with 30gb cap and 2g if you go over that cap (I’ve never gone over once). Nothing comes close to spectrum here. Even boost mobile for the same plan is $60 a month per line. Verizon is almost double. And I’m not about getting contracted up. I’ve had spectrum mobile since it first came out and I’ve had 0 issues. Either my phone is shit or this app updated to a broken version draining my battery. My wife has an iPhone and is not effected at all. I see no logical reason to drop my carrier at all.
Verizon is less, with no contract.

laughs in Mint Mobile
My wife is on Visible (Verizon mvno) for a whopping $35/mo with no cap.
Never heard of or have that here. Sounds cool though
You don’t have T-Mobile or Verizon in your area? You’re on Spectrum, which uses Verizon towers. Visible is owned by Verizon, and is arguably a better deal, especially if you pay annually. Mint Mobile is owned by T-Mobile; T-Mobile is right behind Verizon for coverage.
As someone who had the displeasure of having Spectrum internet for almost 5 years, I would strongly suggest leaving that shithole company in the dust.
verizon is trash dude, no one would pay those prices and be contracted. Verizon is starting at $65 a line at its “unlimited welcome” plan. the 30gb plan is $80 and the50gb is $90. t-mobile is just as bad if not worse. with 50gb STARTING at 90 a month with the next tier up is 150 a month. its fucking garbage dude. i don’t understand how people on this site cant be like “oh…idk man maybe this dude looked at all the options before buying a phone plan and might have picked the best option in their area” how is that a hard concept to grasp? good lord, i just want help with an app dude im not going to change my plan to some shit, expensive garbage.
It’s still a better value even monthly.
That said - use
adbto remove the app, or just disable it and remove permissions. I’ve found the latter to be just as effective with certain built-in apps.http://i.xno.dev/u/g58e25.png
That costs more than what I pay though. Like that is double what I pay lol.
And this is $58 for 2 lines… I literally sent you a picture man… Jesus.
You get reduced speeds at 50 GB, down to basically dial-up speeds. US Mobile’s data cap isn’t until 100GB, and you still get 1Mbps after the cap…
You get double the data for the same price, for the same 2 phones… I’m begging you to read man.
Okay so you want me to save 2 whole dollars by switching to what exactly? Google Fi? Idk what the fuck you’re showing me dude it’s a screen shot of random shit that might not even be available in my area.
I’ve been on Lemmy for like 3 weeks, and you’re the dumbest person I’ve met so far. There should be like, an award.
The best part is you don’t even understand it.
