We joined the party this week! It looked like it was 38 strong when we joined and if all goes well with us testing it we will add more lines! Thanks for putting this together!

That seems like a great price. Does it work with Teracube? [WM: Sounds like you're good to go from this report.]

I just sent a request to join the party. I signed up for Visible using your link about 3 weeks ago and I’m very happy so far. Download speeds have been at least 30 Mbps and quite often around 60-70 Mbps at my house in Melbourne FL. I switched from T-mobile where I was getting 10-20 Mbps for $70/month with a senior discount. I hope they don’t oversell their capacity but it seems like every time I turn on the TV I see that "12 Degrees of Kevin Bacon" Visible commercial.

Just wanted to add in that I’ve been a customer of Visible for the last 9 months or so now. Not bad overall. BUT I too have a Samsung 9 phone that EVERY billing cycle of my own and my wife’s I have to do the old sim new sim trick to get my service back online. Visible can’t fix it, and it it only affects my service not my wife’s on her iPhone. Except for this really weird quirk, we are both very happy with the switch to 25 a month and the savings of nearly 120 a month over our normal longterm Verizon plans.

Here’s a video that was very helpful in setting up my Galaxy S8+ I bought from Ebay with Visible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcAAMj2AwcY
I thought I would need a different phone because I bought an "AT&T" unlocked phone. Just had to enter the correct APNs.

Just a cautionary note about one more trade off I didn't realize I was making: the reliability of Visible Service is also less than what I've ever received from the MVNO cell plans I have been using for 15 years: After 3 1/2 months of service working well, 10 days ago my phone stopped getting any bars and any data or voice service in the town where live and had been using it. As far as I could tell, Level 2 support for the ticket I opened 9 days ago comes from Verizon engineers and was also "deprioritized". I read online that swapping the SIM back to another carriers' then back to Visible's sometimes fixes that type of problem and my experience has been: it was necessary but not sufficient. I tried that every couple days to no avail. Today when I contacted customer support again, they told me someone from Verizon finally touched the ticket again and suggested temporarily swapping the SIM again. This time, the swap seems to have been successful. Depending who I listened to at Visible, I was also told 1 week is about the average time for a level 2 response for customers in this type of situation. Apparently the level 2 support is "deprioritized"? But I've never needed level 2 support before. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S9+, purchased as unlocked from Amazon 2 years ago. It runs off the Android Samsung distributes (v10), the phone has never been rooted, nor had a rom flashed, nor has it ever received customization that would break the warranty. [WM: We've reached out to Visible for comment.]

Great plan. If any of you would use your American Express cards to pay a bill for cellular, check the AMEX online portal for an offer of $15 statement credit/month each time you use the card to pay for a cellular bill this year. You have to select the offer and add it to your card.

[WM: Apparently only available on certain AMEX cards, not ours.]

I’m in and loving it! Unlimited Verizon wireless service for a heck of a lot less money.

Plan activated; any chance you can post the invite link to join Party Plan?

[WM: You will receive an email shortly.]

Activated the plan, do we have a Party yet?

Signed up and waiting for SIM to arrive. Hopefully can keep the 25 a month rate

FWIW, you can buy a prepaid SIM with a phone number at https://prepaid.t-mobile.com/home for $25. If you then buy a phone at Visible you can save as much $200 (less the $25) on a new 5G phone and keep your existing phone number and plan. Not a bad deal for buying a 5G phone. BTW, 5G is new territory with different versions of 5G on even the same network. Very confusing but be aware of the Ultra Wide issue on Verizon/Visible.

Looking forward to joining the "party"!

I have a Note 10+ which is *not* the 5G version from Verizon. How does this plan allow it to get 5G service?

[WM: You have to have a 5G device to get 5G service. But 4G is still pretty sweet with this deal.]

Brett — Fri, 19 Feb 2021 19:49:51 +0000

Can I port my number?

[WM: Absolutely. And see the footnote for an extra $100 bonus from Visible.]

Is there sales tax on the plans and is there one bill for your party?

[WM: No sales tax on the plans. Each party gets billed individually. That’s the beauty of the Visible offering.]

Hi Ward – when I use your link, I get re-directed to https://www.visible.com/sign-in. How do I get on your party plan?

[WM: Once you have a Visible account, just let us know you’d like to join our Party Plan. We then will send out signup links. If we don’t get at least 3 people, we will redirect you to a friend’s Party Plan where the same deal holds.]

I think your ‘unlimited calling IN the U.S., Canada, and Mexico’ should have more accurately said ‘unlimited calling TO the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.’

[WM: You are correct. This is a cellular plan for U.S.-based customers.]
