For anyone who has tried switching over, what's your experience with them been like? Were there any hidden upsides or downsides you weren't expecting? What about coverage? It's really hard to ignore them when they keep spamming ads to YouTube, my favorite podcasts, etc.

All good. The main negative has been international travel, but generally I prefer to switch to a local SIM card when travelling anyhoots.

Same. Been using Mint Mobile for years with few complaints (especially for the price!), but it was entirely unusable when I went to Canada for a few days.

Same. It's been great in the USA but it was entirely unusable for a full week in Europe. I had a ticket open the whole time and they could never get it to work. I demanded a refund.
