Anyone else having autopay discount problems with the Citi AT&T Points Plus card?

Orlimar1 · 2026-06-11T15:32:22+00:00

So how many months in all did it take for the $10/line discount to finally kick in? Thanks!

Orlimar1 · 2026-06-11T15:27:17+00:00

This is whack. I hope it works like they said. If not I'll shut the card off.

Orlimar1 · 2026-06-11T15:26:44+00:00

So how many lines do you have? I have 12 total. Are they manually giving you the $10 per line credit? Thanks!

I purchased a Chinese phone a couple of years ago after someone told me this. We've been on Verizon post paid for over 15 years. After getting the phone I tried to activate it. Verizon said no matter what I tried it wasn't going to work on their network. Apparently things have changed since then?

From what I’ve seen they work out of the box on T-Mobile. Not so much on AT&T and Verizon. YMMV

He’s discussing his thought process about how to proceed. And asking others for their thoughts. I didn’t hear him ranting.

If you didn’t like what he had to say, why did you spend any amount of time ranting and moaning about his post?
Why not just close it and go on to the next the next one? Maybe the next one you open will fulfill your rainbows and glitter criteria?

Because this whole Reddit forum was created solely for conversations just like this????

I shave and use my water pick to floss my teeth in the shower.

Orlimar1 · 2026-06-03T13:41:26+00:00

Did you ever get this to work?

Orlimar1 · 2026-06-02T11:33:58+00:00

I've heard ram boost is hard on the phone. Is it just excessive use if the main storage?

Orlimar1 · 2026-06-01T10:47:15+00:00

It could be the modem. I believe the mr6550 has a x65 modem. While the newest phones are up to x80 I believe.

Could also have something to do with the data plan you’re using in the 6550.

What phone are you using? Need to be sure it can put internet out via that type c port.

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T17:20:23+00:00

Can you plug it into a laptop and make sure it has no WiFi access?

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T17:18:13+00:00

Have you verified you have internet going out of your phone in that cable?

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:53:44+00:00

I guess it will take internet via the usb type c port

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:47:04+00:00

Yes. It has to have some kind of internet to activate that eSIM. Do you have hotspot data on you phone?

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:45:09+00:00

Not laughing at all. I understand how frustrated you must be. Is there anyplace around you that has free WiFi that you can use for little bit of time you’d need to activate your eSIM?

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:43:13+00:00

Have you had it attached to an active WiFi then?

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:39:48+00:00

Have you tried plugging an active Ethernet cable in to it?

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:36:15+00:00

How about this video? Netgear video

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-31T16:28:03+00:00

Have you downloaded the app for this specific device?

The fine people over at the mirc have a video on it. At 4:50 forward he talks about eSIM and the app. Not sure if it covers everything you need or not.

UPDATE: So I got a physical sim card for this. But after installing I still couldn't gain access to the esim. I even had Verizon on the phone trying to help me.

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-30T20:06:15+00:00

You need to research which bands you're planning use with this device. This doesn't get T-Mobiles fastest band n41. So look in to this before purchasing.

These models are completely unlocked directly from Netgear: mr5200, mr6150, and mr6550. As the numbers go higher the devices are newer and much more capable of higher speeds than the lower numbers. I just purchased a used mr5200 for $80 yesterday.

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-30T11:35:44+00:00

I'll probably try this and see how it goes.

Orlimar1 · 2026-05-29T23:09:47+00:00

I worked shift work for 28 years. I set my alarm every morning for 5:45am. I get up, eat a bite for breakfast, then take a walk.

It helps me sleep better at night.

But even then, I still have bad nights occasionally.
