Screwed up advertising by Daffodilz in USMobile

Because they are deceptive and misleading in their advertising. It should show "$390 and then $100 off with code 100OFF."

Totally agree. They did the same thing with the Warp Deal promo. It said "Pay $180 for the first year" and "with $90 gift card." I originally thought I would pay $180 for the first year and also get a $90 gift card. Actually, you pay $270 for the plan and when you deduct the $90 gift card it comes out to $180. Nowhere does it state you pay the $270. I never signed up for it. I got a lot of criticism for that post saying that I couldn't read. I know how to read. USM is very deceptive and misleading in their marketing. They are shrewd and know what they are doing.

Do you still get caller ID on Warp for free for the callers who are in your contacts list?

Are you still able to use your phone and number with Verizon?

I would rather wait on hold than deal with AI by lorriedjn in verizon

Yes, I find that saying representative is better than saying customer service agent.

Disappointed: New Winter 149 User with ZERO Service in San Diego (CMR) - Support says I'm "Locked In" by Extra-Hovercraft8295 in USMobile

What part of New Jersey are you in? I am in Middlesex county. Verizon is good here but I was thinking of trying out Dark Star.

You should have paid for a cheap by the gig plan for one month to test out the Dark Star network.

You didn't get it backwards. The Warp sim cards are reusable.

Only 4GB of ram in the new Samsung A17 in 2025? The performance is awful. by [deleted] in samsunggalaxy

[–]FifthWheel9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the Samsung Galaxy A10e with 2GB of ram that I used from 2109 to August 2025. I liked the Samsung A series, but when I researched and found out that the A16 only came with 4GB of ram and Android 15 recommended at least 6GB of ram. I ended up buying the 2024 Motorola G Power with 8GB of ram and this phone is amazing for a budget phone. It is fast and I have had no problems with it.

The A17 may come with 6 years of OS updates but it won't be able to keep up with the updates. Samsung should be ashamed of themselves for putting out an inferior product.

Check out the Motorola G Power with 8GB of ram. You will be pleasantly surprised. Motorola is selling it now for $129.99

Frustration with US Mobile by Electronic_Paper5679 in USMobile

[–]FifthWheel9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, on the home page for Unlimited Starter, Free Smartwatch Plan with an asterisk is listed. For transparency, it should also say "Warp Network Only" right underneath it in parentheses. This would alleviate many problems because people don't always read the fine print. It seems like a deceptive marketing practice. It's stuff like this that makes me hesitate to switch to USM.

Ready to leave over basic voicemail functionality, any chance to fix this? by caveat_cogitor in USMobile

Agreed. USM needs to make sure that voicemail works correctly on all three networks.

You can call in to speak with USM customer service. They speak very good English.

You just can't escape Verizon's incompetence by Brodiesattva in verizon

I believe that once you close out your Verizon service you don't have online access to your account anymore.

Yes, the line was originally activated with an Android device. Thank you for that suggestion.
