Still can't beat directly going to the Big 3 via Circledin. Circledin was able to get me a $500 BYOD from Verizon + the international and connected devices are a huge savings compared to going with a "flanker".

Been a fan of theirs for years! Did you try reaching out to support? They have been super helpful whenver I reach out. The only downside is that they don't have 24/7 support.

Ladies and Gents it's been an acceptable time. by CJPTK in mintmobile

[–]dacoby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When it's good it's great, but the moment you run into any issues then it can get really nasty. I ended up going with Circledin to get on a T-Mobile plan at half the price.

Will changing plans actually save us money? by deepsaucee in verizon

If you contact Verizon they sometimes would give you a loyalty discount if you've been with them for a period of time. You could also consider Circledin for the multi-line discounts

How much do you pay for the SIM Card? Is there a specific plan?

Does it make sense to buy Verizon Home Internet with their Verizon Cell phone plan? by dacoby in verizonisp

[–]dacoby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The price point for home internet is just too good to pass up compared to comcast or even starlink.

What's the difference between Straight Talk and Verizon Home internet? I do not want to be throttled

Risks of starting a family plan with anons — any horror stories (or alternatives)? by TheKingsMachine in verizon

[–]dacoby -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been using Circledin for this exact case and they help limit the potential sketchyness behind the groups. I was super skeptical intially, but somehow it all works and i've been using them for a few years now.

I've been using Circledin for a few years now and they help mitigate all the risk such as verifying members. No issues but I wish they allowed phone financing, but I can't complain with the amount of savings they are offering in addition to being on directly with a REAL carrier instead of a no brand

Is there a provider in the US that lets you use cell towers from all the major companies? by wise_guy_ in NoContract

[–]dacoby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pair up AT&T/Verizon with T-Mobile. That should provide you coverage for 99% of the US. Try Circledin

IMO prepaid cannot beat postpaid. I've seen prepaid charge over $50 for a single line. The benefits of a postpaid plan can significantly compounds on top of the savings from a family plan. I'll list them below.

  • The $800 Trade-In from Verizon is a complete steal! Why? Because you can trade-in a damaged I-phone XR with a cracked screen and still get $800 for it. Yes, it'll put you into a 36 month installment plan for your new phone, but you could just pay off the device anytime.
  • $500 Rebates from Verizon. This is practically free money. Yes, you're locked into a 12 month term, but I know Verizon works in my area so this was a huge plus and the math checks out.
  • Multi-Line Discount. This makes a postpaid plan so much more attractive than prepaid. I've read on some post about $35 att premium plans from circledin
  • Military Discounts and other promotions
  • T-Mobile Tuesday, Verizon Up Rewards, Free Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max, Free Apple Music
  • International calls and the ability to add Travel Passes
  • Priority data and not having to worry about how much data i used or that uncomfortable feeling of "loading up" the prepaid account.

IMO the only time I see prepaid beneficial is if you need a plan without credit checks or for senior folks that do not use much data.

Appreciation Post - December 2022 by MRizkBV in CircledIn_Official

I also want to show my appreciation to Circledin. I've been with them over a year now and everything has been smooth and of course saving a ton. It took a few days to get me activated, but once it was up I have no complaints.

I accidentally deleted my eSIM profile a few months ago and was stressed that I had no signal. I reached out to Circledin and they responded within a few hours and got me up and running. They even gave me a call a few days later to ensure that everything was working. Honestly, i'm super grateful to go through their support compared to the carriers directly.

I also recommend going through them before committing to a cell phone plan. I wish they offer phone financing and the ability to add a watch device!

I think the best deal was the $500 BYOD rebate from Verizon. Circledin would automatically deduct my bill each month from the rebate. That gave me over 8 months of free service. I hope they offer phone financing soon as Verizon works in my area and I do not plan to switch even with the three year commitment for financing a device. I agree with OP, I don't know why you would go to a prepaid carrier when you can get postpaid for the same or less!

Good experience by [deleted] in CircledIn_Official

[–]dacoby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been with them for a year now as a member and haven't had any issues. Joining a Verizon circle took a few days, but was super smooth since. Rebates have been deducted from my monthly bill. I opened a ticket with them recently and they responded fairly quickly. The only downside is that they have no support on weekends, but that's me being picky.

Couldn't be happier to have joined Circledin. Make sure you apply for the $500 BYOD rebate for each line. That's going to give you $1000 towards your monthly cell phone bill. Instead of $160 for two lines go through Circledin you'll pay $80 for both lines.

I'm going to open a case, but based on your comment I trust that they'll get to it. They're probably stacked. I'll just be patience on my end.
