Every option the agent weighed
Simply Unlimited (3 lines) Google Fi Wireless · selected
Budget, term, and phone-support requirements all have reported support, though budget figure and official terms text could not be re-verified on Google's own live page (fetches blocked/truncated), so currency of the exact price is a residual caveat.
- budget: ~$30/line/month ($90/month for 3 lines) before tax; taxes/fees reported as 10-20% extra, giving an estimated ~$99-$108/month all-in bestmvno.com not the brand’s own page
- term: No annual service contract; cancel anytime; no activation or cancellation/termination fees support.google.com not the brand’s own page
- support: Toll-free phone number 1-844-825-5234 (1-844-TALK2Fi) reachable for human support; also referenced by supplied document as '24/7 support from real people' google-fi.pissedconsumer.com not the brand’s own page
Unresolved: Current (Sept 2026) exact plan name and price could not be confirmed directly on fi.google.com (page blocked/unreadable both attempts); Whether '24/7' support hours claim is accurate (only corroborated indirectly, not via a readable Google-owned page); Exact combined tax/fee amount for the household's specific service address

Mint Mobile Family Plan (3 lines) Mint Mobile (T-Mobile) · unresolved
Support and approximate budget are established, but the term requirement is unresolved: the $30/line discounted family rate is reported as billed in 3-month prepaid chunks, and no source confirmed whether a genuinely monthly (month-to-month) billing option exists at a comparable price.
