7. We've been on Boost Mobile currently.

We've been on MNVOs (the type of carrier Mint Mobile is) most of the time since Verizon refused to negotiate with us. (We repeatedly informed them we were going to switch unless they allowed us to use an internet capable cell phone on a voice & text only line - they insisted there was nothing they could do. After we dropped the service, they repeatedly begged us to come back and informed us we were asking the wrong part of their corporation for a price match . . . by then we had virtually identical service for around a third of the price.)

Since Boost Infinite (MNVO) merged with Boost Mobile it is now a full carrier - so I guess we're no longer on an MNVO.

But the price is good ($25 unlimited talk, text, data), and my experience with customer service has been excellent.

Mint was one possibility when our last MNVO carrier was bought out twice, and we were getting fed up with the interruption during transfers. Ultimately, Boost Mobile was cheaper (after the 3-month discounted plan).
