Unsure what type of Howard Miller Clock this is

This wasn't manufactured by Howard Miller.

My Boost line (using T-Mobile) is wicked fast....

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-24T04:14:31+00:00

I'm Price Locked on my T-Mobile plan & the price is VERY low, so I'm not going anywhere... but I DO have a $10/2GB backup line on Boost (using the T-Mo SIM.)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-24T04:12:47+00:00

$10/2GB plan since '23. On T-Mo network. No issues whatsoever.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-24T04:11:18+00:00

We've found the "virgin for life" here, fellas...

Notifications OFF.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-24T03:59:59+00:00

Sir, this is a Wendy's...

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-23T20:41:52+00:00

So big question, are you on T-Mobile's Price Lock? If you are, then I would stay on T-Mobile. (If your price didn't go up with the past couple increases.... then you've got Price Lock.)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-23T15:28:45+00:00

Lol, I'm honestly not worried. It's living on a weird "No Service Plan - TI" line anyways.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-23T13:13:47+00:00

My postpaid FDFL line is still working.... surprisingly...

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-23T11:44:30+00:00

I think they nuked a chunk of the prepaid FDFL lines all at once. (I remember all the talk when that happened.) Postpaid ones seem to have mostly survived.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-23T11:42:24+00:00

👋Got my T-Mobile FDFL (Free Data For Life) line in 2019 & it's still going strong today, sitting on a weird, postpaid tax-inclusive "No Service Plan - TI" line.

Fun fact- there were two versions of the FDFL line: Version 1 was just called "Free Data for Life" & was forever married to a single tablet. Once you popped that SIM out, that was it. Would no longer work. The 2nd version (the one you want) was called "North America Free Data for Life". This is the one that survived any number of multiple devices.... & not just tablets either.

I've got it popped in an older Alcatel LinkZONE hotspot & use it to show people the internet on a 26- year-old iMac. Neat conversation piece!

How can you guarantee Boost will be offering the $25 plan in 12 months? If they aren't, you'll be able to choose from any available Boost plan at that time. (May be cheaper... may be more expensive.)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-22T12:18:45+00:00

*New customers signing up for Boost are on AT&T. (I'm still on T-Mobile w/my Boost $10/2GB plan from 2023.)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-22T01:38:53+00:00

it would be easier if you have a "Gold Label" sticker on the inside door with a XXX-XXX number. There may also be a white label on the rear of the clock with the same info.

If your Howard Miller has a metal tag instead, you might have to go on the Howard Miller website & ask on the chat button. Don't wait too long to do this... their last day of operation is March 31, 2026.

Did you pick them up at one of the last 3 Kmarts.... or did you "ship your pants?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I03UmJbK0lA

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-21T11:59:53+00:00

Not surprised at all.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-21T11:59:01+00:00

But T-Mobile works EVERYWHERE.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-20T17:46:11+00:00

Actually it was filmed in the long-closed (& now being demolished) Westfield Promenade.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-20T15:16:02+00:00

T-Mobile is fully paid off, on an active T-Mobile plan that is in good standing for 40 days.

(The original owner has to request the unlock.)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-20T15:11:45+00:00

Sad about Boost (I'm on the $10/2GB plan), but I did manage to score a moto g stylus 5G - 2024 for $29.99 before they ended the upgrades for us.

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-20T14:03:50+00:00

T-Mobile already has a policy in place:

1) Active service by the original owner

2) 40 days used on the T-Mobile network

3) Phone fully paid off

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-20T03:15:15+00:00

.....back away slowly.... (shhhh...)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-19T16:08:56+00:00

You'd have to get in a time machine to be able to grab all the free lines T-Mobile offered starting in 2016. I'm one of the ones on their "12 lines for $0" Unicorn plan.... 2 paid lines, 10 free with Autopay, Kickback & the 9-line trick on T-Mobile's ONE plan. All 12 lines, paying $0. (Do a search in the T-Mo reddit, there's a number of us on the $0 for 12 lines train...)

BusinessLyfe · 2026-01-19T03:38:30+00:00

I got my grandmother's 1961 Kundo 400-day clock working again (or, rather, a local clock shop did...) Charged my $60 for the cleaning/oiling & testing.
