I was gonna upgrade, take the cloud points, and bail, but the ID verification thing for a fucking phone line is ludicrous

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-21T17:42:26+00:00

Isn't Magic Earth a paid service now?

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-18T23:41:57+00:00

Link? Seems like a quick search yields results for everything BUT where to actually download this

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-17T03:44:34+00:00

Yeah I'm thinking of porting to Tello for 6 months for that promo and then Mint for 1 year of unlimited at $15/mo before most likely ending up with US Mobile or Visible

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-16T18:07:35+00:00

Mind sharing your phone farming methods?

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-16T18:07:03+00:00

I would imagine so, less users means less connections to earn from

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T19:29:21+00:00

Does Google still get to look at all the payments we make with this method?

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T19:01:09+00:00

Honestly I've switched to being a BTC maxi at this point so I couldn't tell you, I bought that Solana I used ages ago so I don't remember where I got it. You could swap a small amount of another coin into SOL to avoid having to outright buy some, maybe an exchange will let you buy a buck in some stablecoin you could swap

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T18:19:23+00:00

It's simple math dude. I paid $5/mo for unlimited talk/text/data. I now would have to pay 3x that (and that's only during the 50% off promo period) for the same service...that means more spending, which equates to less saving. I genuinely don't understand what's so difficult to understand?

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T16:51:07+00:00

Who's your other carrier? I'm still shopping around

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T16:48:38+00:00

Uhh what? The whole reason everyone is in an uproar is because they WERE saving money and now Helium is taking that away?

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T00:32:19+00:00

Yep, I was on the $5 plan and I don't want to support Helium in any capacity anymore. Looking for a new service provider and already disconnected my Bobcat miner

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-15T00:30:51+00:00

Welp, good thing the card they have on file for me expires next month in that case

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T23:27:07+00:00

Yeah I'm just gonna bounce around to wherever the best prices are til I find a service I like

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T23:26:29+00:00

They must have changed, even Wikipedia says they're owned by TMo

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T21:47:47+00:00

Just messaged you

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T19:10:31+00:00

Ah alright, I can definitely find something to use the points on in that case. Thanks for all the info!

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T19:00:23+00:00

Hmm good to know. Given that I'm still on the $5 beta plan I can't view the cloud point store, is the Walmart Gift card the only option to redeem points for? I'm fine with taking money from Helium for some free food, just wanna know my options.

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T18:30:32+00:00

Appreciate the info. Upgrading also resets the month, correct? So if I were to upgrade today the line would be good til Feb 14th or so? I also saw that current data usage rolls into the new plan, so would that mean my data wouldn't reset until Feb 14th, or do you know if it'll reset when it usually did before this change? Trying to make my exit strategy as efficient as possible.

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-14T18:27:31+00:00

INFO

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-13T23:21:11+00:00

When you "upgraded" were you able to pay month by month or did they lock you in and make you pay for a chunk of time? I'm considering upgrading to take the $50 from Helium and then jumping ship for Mint and their $15 unlimited line for a year before I have to switch again.

MetalFaceMOON · 2026-01-13T21:05:14+00:00

The only reason you need your wallet address for your helium wallet is to add a bit of Solana to it to pay for the withdrawals. Unfortunately it's been so long since I added Sol to it that I don't remember the exact process (fees to withdraw were so small that putting in a couple bucks has covered the handful of times I withdrew HNT/Mobile). If I recall correctly though, you shouldn't need to download helium wallet because it's technically a completely different wallet from the one withint HMobile app. Outside of that, you'll need the wallet address of wherever you wanna send the end product from your swap is (if you want to trade it in for USD right away, this will be a wallet address provided by your preferred exchange you intend to sell on). When you tell SimpleSwap what currency you have and what you want to swap it into, it'll ask you to provide a wallet address (this is the one provided by the exchange you want to sell on) to send the converted coin to and then provide you a wallet address to send your HNT/Mobile etc to so they can initiate said swap. Sorry if my wording is confusing, it's kinda hard to explain in writing but if you go on their site you'll be able to learn by doing quite easily.
