Every option the agent weighed
Google Fi Wireless — Unlimited Standard (3 lines) Google Fi Wireless · unresolved
Base price ($90/mo for 3 lines) and no-annual-contract terms are reasonably supported, but the tax-inclusive all-in total and the ability to reach a human by phone could not be confirmed on a page the agent could independently read.
- budget base price: $90/month for 3 lines (Unlimited Standard, pre-tax base price) support.google.com not the brand’s own page
- term: No annual service contract; cancel anytime with no ETF; device financing is optional (BYOD avoids any financing obligation), but if a device is financed, remaining balance is due on early cancellation fi.google.com not the brand’s own page
Unresolved: exact all-in (tax+fee-inclusive) monthly total for 3 lines at the household's actual service address; whether Google Fi offers a genuine, agent-confirmable phone number reachable to a human (only third-party aggregator sites and an unread/blocked operator-supplied page state a number; a Wikipedia-cited journalist review corroborates phone support exists but does not verify the number); current official plan name mapping (older 'Simply Unlimited' vs current 'Unlimited Standard') consistency across sources
Visible Unlimited (3 lines) Visible (Verizon) · rejected
Fails the hard phone-support requirement: reported sources state Visible has no dedicated customer service phone number, only chat, app, and social-media support.
- budget: $25/line/month, taxes and fees included = $75/month all-in for 3 lines visible.com not the brand’s own page
- term: Month-to-month, cancel anytime, no annual contract; device financing via Affirm is optional, not required visible.com not the brand’s own page
- support: No dedicated phone number; support via chat/app/social media (X, Facebook Messenger) only visible.com not the brand’s own page
Mint Mobile Unlimited (3 lines) Mint Mobile · rejected
Fails the month-to-month term requirement: the advertised per-line rate requires prepaying 3, 6, or 12 months upfront rather than paying month-to-month; general human phone support could not be confirmed either.
- budget: $30/line/month base (3-line total $90 base), taxes/fees add roughly $2.67/line per an aggregator estimate, ~$98/month estimated all-in mintmobile.com not the brand’s own page
- term: No annual contract, but service must be prepaid in 3-, 6-, or 12-month increments rather than billed month-to-month at the advertised rate mintmobile.com not the brand’s own page
Unresolved: whether a true single-month, pay-as-you-go option exists at a comparable price; whether the listed phone number (800) 683-7392 connects to general human support or only billing/auto-renew management; precise all-in taxed total for the household's specific address
