The MVNO Mint Mobile is temporarily offering all subscribers unlimited data at no charge. Here’s an excerpt from an email I just received:
Starting on 3-15-20 through 4-14-20, Mint Mobile will be providing all current and new customers with FREE unlimited high-speed data add-ons.
Further details
Like many other carriers, Mint Mobile is making changes in its policies in response to the coronavirus. Mint’s subscribers can take advantage of Mint’s new policy by adding data to their plans in 3GB chunks. Subscribers will need to use up most of their add-on data before they’re eligible for additional add-ons:1
95% of data add-on must be used prior to adding an additional data add-on
It looks like even new customers will be eligible for unlimited data.2
Footnotes
- The excerpt comes from an email I received from Mint on 3/15/2020.
- “Whether you are a new or existing customer, you will be reimbursed for any 4G LTE data add-ons you purchase before 11:59pm PST on April 14.”
From Mint’s page on the new policy.
Has anyone tried it yet. Did the refund really come back? Would be nicer if it wasn’t charged at all – but this is good if it works.
