When you are trying to cut expenses, you seriously look for every possible area in your life where you could be saving money. I was able to save money on cell phone service by simply switching providers to Mint Mobile.
I’m not sure why, but I was super hesitant to leave my cell phone service provider at first. It’s like I felt this loyalty to their company even though I felt I was being overcharged and forced to upgrade my phone every two years.
One year ago, my husband left his high-paying job where he also carried our health benefits. His income dropped to less than half, we lost health insurance, and at that same time, we lost our insanely cheap childcare and had to enroll our children in a facility that was $1,000 more than we were used to paying.
To say I was financially overwhelmed would be an understatement.
This launched me into the hyper-save mode where I was looking for any area in our current budget where I could save some serious money.
Our current cell phone plan was costing us $180/month for two phones with not tons of data usage. I started shopping around for other cell phone provider options because ours was just costing too much for what we could afford at that time.
This led me to find the greatest company, Mint Mobile. This company was immediately amazing to work with and they were completely transparent about the costs of their plans and what that would get you.
They had plans starting at $15/month.
You read that right! Just $15/month. For one year of service with them, I would pay what I had paid for one month of service with our old provider. This was the kind of savings I was looking for!
In one year, my family saved $1,440, just because I took the chance and changed cell phone providers. My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner.

How is Mint Mobile able to be so much cheaper than other service providers?
Mint Mobile buys data in bulk so they CAN sell it cheaper to the public. They are also a completely digital company! This means they have no storefronts to maintain that could drive up their cost.
They are so confident in their plan, they give a 7-day money-back guarantee!
Will I lose data or have slower coverage?
You get to choose the data you need, which means you only pay for what you use!
Their plans include 3GB, 8GB, and 12GB of data on a 4G LTE network. They have insanely fast coverage. You won’t notice a difference between your old provider and Mint Mobile (aside from the cost!).
How does it work?
- You will pick out your plan (data amount per month)
- You will bring along your existing phone (check their website to make sure your phone qualifies)
- Then you will activate your phone
- Use the helpful step-by-step videos to set up your phone
- Insert the SIM card and you are good to go!
I am not technically savvy at all. Like, if I could still have a flip phone without text capabilities, that would suit me just fine. I was totally able to accomplish this with no problems. The awesome thing is, even if you do have a question, they have amazing customer support.
I signed up online, received the SIM card in the mail and then followed to directions to activate my phone and change out the SIM card. It seriously took me 15 minutes, and I am technology stupid.
What about if I travel internationally?
They have free calls to Mexico and Canada. They now have super low rates to over 160 countries around the world.
Is there a chance this won’t work for me?
Use their coverage map to put in your location and make sure you will have top-notch service using Mint Mobile. If your area is green, you are good to go!
Will I be stuck with the plan if I don’t like it?
No way! They have a 7-day money-back guarantee. If you aren’t happy with your service (and you will know within 24 hours), cancel your plan and get your money back. No harm, no foul.

How much money could I end up saving?
As I said, my family was able to save $1,440 in a single year by switching to Mint Mobile. That is substantial. Really, the sky is the limit. If you have an expensive plan now and can get by with a small amount of data, you can save tons of money!
Mint mobile was able to save my family $120/month when we needed that money for food. It was a huge blessing at the time. If you need to find another way to save money with your budget, this may be the best way.
I recommend Mint Mobile to everyone I know. It just doesn’t make sense to pay more for cell phone service when you can have it for just $15/month.
