Ting Mobile review

Ting Mobile keeps its plan list short. Unlimited costs $25 a month per line for unlimited high-speed data, talk and text, nationwide LTE and 5G coverage and voicemail, and Ting Internet customers pay just $10 for it. Flex is the pay-as-you-go option: $10 a month per line plus $5 per GB of shared high-speed data, which suits households where nobody uses much mobile data. Data plans include a mobile hotspot and there are no overage charges. Ting bills after your first month of service rather than upfront, and you can choose a SIM card or eSIM with no contract. On the minus side, international calling is pay-per-use rather than included, your phone must be unlocked before you activate it, and Flex quickly becomes more expensive than a flat plan once you pass a few gigabytes. Outside Ting Internet areas, Visible and Boost include more for the same $25.
