180/year on mint mobile, in the US

Paid yearly. 5gb of data but that's all I need.

[–] acchariya@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

18€, 20GB data in all of EU, unlimited voice and SMS

Edit: France

[–] fmtx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)
  • Japan.
  • JPY 980 per month.
  • Plan includes up to 3GB per month 4g/5g data, and when going over 3GB, the data cap increases to 20GB for an additional JPY 1000. Unlimited voice and text, global roaming to 90 countries included.

Still don't get bars inside some big buildings though :p

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

USD $200 for eight lines with unlimited data, calls, text; international coverage only for texting. So it works out to $25 each but I don't think we could get that price on fewer lines. Large family.

[–] leadore@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

USA, $9/mo. ($9.36 with taxes/fees) for unlimited talk/texts and 1GB data.

[–] moe93@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

$120 for three lines with unlimited 5G internet + calls/texts (slower speeds after 50GB but still pretty fast). Also free roaming and calls/texts/internet while in Canada and Mexico.

Definitely not the best, but also not the worst.

[–] BackwardsUntoDawn@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

comcast is giving me a $45 credit each month for an line that costs ~$43, so I'm effectively paying -$2 per month. unlimited minutes/texts and 30gb before throttling

US, $75 per 3 months, 5GB data and unlimited talk and text. Mint Mobile. The Ryan Reynolds phone company.

[–] Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Canada, 33$CAD a month for unlimited calls and texts and 2gb of data

[–] Chastity2323@midwest.social 2 points 1 day ago

US. $1-2/month for global pay as you go data for as low as $1.15/GB (https://silent.link/ data-only esim). $5/month for my virtual https://jmp.chat/ phone number.

[–] Allero@lemmy.today 3 points 2 days ago

Russia, $13 (1100 rubles), unlimited data, rest not included

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

With Smarty in the UK I pay £6 for 8GB monthly and my partner pays £7.20 for 16GB

Only issue I have is that it uses the 3 network and we both get shitty reception in the Yorkshire dales whenever we visit there

[–] WhatSay@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

US currently $10/mo for unlimited phone/text, 1gb data. I can switch it to Unlimited data for $25/mo

Tello

[–] tyronenguyen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah I had tello for a while but went to usmobile to get $6/mo for 1g/mo but had to prepay for the whole year. I did 500mb/mo on tello for $8/mo.

[–] Drempire@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (3 children)

£1 monthly. Unlimited data/SMS/voice. It's a trial offer of 6-8 months but with a little juggling you can keep the trail much longer. I've had mine for about 4 years now

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Which company?

[–] pinguin@fault.su 5 points 3 days ago

Where did you get this??

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

$65/month unlimited everything, Verizon, USA

[–] rehydrate5503@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Canada. $39.55 CAD per month (approximately 25€). Plan includes unlimited calling and text in Canada, US and Mexico, 75GB of data at 5G. Also includes roaming to over 100 countries, but limited to 10GB of data. Calling and texts are unlimited in the country where you roam. So for example, if you’re in Italy, it doesn’t cost anything to call or text Italian numbers, but if you were to call or text Japan, there would be a charge.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Hey fellow Canadian. I pay about the same. Looking at these other responses, I think we're getting screwed.

Italy, 8€/mo., 100GB data (5GB if travelling in EU), unlimited calls and SMSs

[–] UnfortunateShort@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Germany, 7€/month, 7GB, sms + phone flat

[–] chainysawrs@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (2 children)

$15 a month, but you have to pay in chunks of 3 months at a time, so $45 every 3 months. Mint mobile, US.

France, 19.99€, unlimited data + calls + text, 35 GB/mo roaming in all of Europe and other countries

[–] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago

Same provider but I'm paying 6€/months for unlimited calls, text and 40Go of 4G data.

[–] Xuderis@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

5G, also when roaming internationally. Data is not unlimited in my case because i don't subscribe to their home internet offer, but 350 GB is functionally unlimited for me, I never reach 50 GB in a month. DSL/Fiber Subscribers get unlimited data and pay only 9.99€ for mobile service.

speedtest:

  • 5G on provider network: ⬇️ 200 MBps ⬆️ 66 MBps
  • 5G international roaming: ⬇️ 100 MBps ⬆️ 32 MBps

[–] loutr@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

Same plan but 10€ since I'm also a fiber subscriber.

[–] Redfugee@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

US, $42/year, eSIM with keepgo for 10GB of data that never expires. That's about all I use per year, often less.

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That would be insanely expensive in the UK. Geez you guys are eating bad

[–] rogermiraki@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

Oh right, I definitely misread and my smooth brain just assumed it was per month. That's mint actually

[–] Usernameblankface@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

In the US, I pay 23 dollars per month for 2 lines sharing 5 gigabytes of 5g data, unlimited talk and text through U.S. Mobile.

It's plenty because we are on WiFi most of the time.

[–] pixelpunk@feddit.org 3 points 2 days ago

Switzerland, equivalent of approx. US$ 16. unlimited 5G data, calls and SMS in Switzerland. 3GB data roaming in EU.

[–] jafffacakelemmy@fedia.io 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Switzerland, 30.50 chf a month for unlimited calls sms and data in Switzerland and 40gb a month of roaming in Europe (but with a huge discount: regular price for this would be more than double)

i buy limited data plans that i have to call something like 5556466345666782117909# ,usually 8€ in Estonia

[–] flying_gel@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Australia, boost mobile yearly prepaid plan. 365GB for 365 days costing $365 AUD ($200 EUR, $220 USD). So $1 a day. Unlimited local calls, no overseas calls or roaming.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 days ago

Portugal, €5/month, 100GB of data connection, 5000 call minutes. I'm supposed to pay one cent per sms but I have yet to be charged.

[–] Humanius@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I'm paying €10,50 / month for unlimited calling / 500 texts / 18 GB of data. Thats is with Simpel in the Netherlands.

Texting is not relevant here since everyone uses WhatsApp (and more recently Signal), and I've never actually used more then 18GB of data in a month.

[–] kindenough@kbin.earth 5 points 3 days ago

The Netherlands.

6€. Sim only. Unlimited calls and sms, 6GB 4G, later this year 5G.

[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

USA, $17.50/month prepaid for a year: US Mobile Starter Unlimited (or whatever the lowest tier is called) gives 10 GB of high-speed data and then infinite 1 Mbps, which is faster than any other throttled speed (apart from Visible, but that's also costlier). I have a referral link for it that rewards both the referrer and referred.

Oh, and it gives infinite minutes and texts across all of North America, I think (Canada + Mexico), as well as access to all the major satellite networks, so if you don't like your AT&T service, you can order a SIM to try T-Mobile's, etc., all while still on the same US Mobile plan; they advertise themselves as a "supercarrier" accordingly.

US, $25/month through Visible for unlimited call, text, and data
