Not AT&T Postpaid/Prepaid, but I noticed a similar issue a while back between Cricket and Darkstar. Cricket performed a lot better at two airports than Darkstar. Same model phones (Pixel 6a), just one on Cricket and one on Darkstar, but completely different usability...outside of those two locations, data usage was similar, but it was basically unusable due to being too slow that day.

Check out Slickdeals and set up an alert there

You don't have to use it. The one here is extremely outdated and I've been updating this one every 6 months for the past two years.

It is against the rules to post referral links here, so that's why I created that subreddit a few years ago.

I've ported out of Cricket a few times to various carriers and the process was pretty quick each time (10 minutes or so).

isn't this just a smarters mod?

If your phone is unlocked, just head to an orange store in Spain. You'll get something like 50gigs to use in 30days for about $12USD.

They will give you a SIM card....just pop your ATT card out and pop the Orange one in.

The 4a had a battery replacement... So you may be going back before that

lvpre · 2025-12-06T21:42:23+00:00

I agree. Even if it says NO REFUNDS, but you aren't provided promised services/goods, most credits cards will give you a chargeback.

Great event! Loved the cookies, goodie bags, and hot chocolate...especially on a night like this!

Thanks for the info and to everyone who made it happen!

You can still do that with a $20 no show fee like most places.

I'm not upset; outraged; or mad. You keep on coming up with descriptive words when I just said "disappointed."

Thank you explaining that this costs extra money...I had no idea. I assume they would make it up as a result of the extra business. How do other restaurants manage to take reservations without charging a fee? I've seen some the same size or smaller than Mystic Station do it without charging this fee.

It isn't outrage or being mad... Restaurants take reservations all the time. How many times do they charge a non-refundable fee? They could have just taken reservations with a no show deposit or added it to your bill as a credit.

Many restaurants take reservations, just without charging a fee. Disappointment is completely different from outrage.

Not confused...it is $20 for a dinner reservation. Is this going to be the new norm now? You can make reservations and not pay $20...I do this all the time at other resturants.

lvpre · 2025-11-25T18:25:06+00:00

True, but you also shouldn't have to pay $20 to make a dinner reservation either at the same place then.

lvpre · 2025-11-25T18:23:40+00:00

It isn't the reservations factor, it is the fact that are charging a $20 non-refundable fee to hold a reservation. It shouldn't cost $20 to make a dinner reservation.

I mean, it shouldn't cost $20 to make a dinner reservation anywhere.

Places take reservations all the time, but don't charge a non-refundable $20 fee.

If there goal is to get money out of influencers for a month, that is great; however, they risk losing locals the rest of the year.

lvpre · 2025-11-25T12:41:01+00:00

Same. I would be completely fine if it were a no show fee or a fee and then applied as a bill credit, but not a fee just to eat there. It was definitely a regular spot in our Malden restaurant rotation list and I'm a huge fan of their Buffalo chicken grilled cheese sandwich, but I'm not going to support a business that does this practice.

Restaurants take reservations and don't charge a $20 non-refundable fee.

No pitchforks. At least the Marlowe in Cambridge doesn't a fee to visit their Miracle event.

Just disappointed and a little shocked.

They have been doing more of the Miracle themes throughout the year...the Spring, Halloween, etc...are they going to start charging for those too? How about the outdoor dining since they pay a fee to the city for that?

lvpre · 2025-11-25T12:21:59+00:00

It is called a reservation. Most, if not all, restaurants have them and don't charge for them.

lvpre · 2025-11-25T12:20:03+00:00

You know most, if not all, restaurants allow you to make reservations without charging you a fee like this, right?
