    FTC asleep at the wheel again. We need more competition, not less.

      What? Are you not excited about only having to consume your products from 3 different entities?! It’ll save you tons of time! /s

      I agree with you, but MVNOs are not competition.

        MVNOs are not competition.

        Given the hundreds of billions it would cost for an actual competitor to build out their own infrastructure, it’s likely the most we can realistically expect.

      I agree with you but to be fair Mint Mobile sucks, worst phone service I’ve ever used.

    Just lovely. Despite being a long-time Mint customer (and currently pre-paid for quite some time into the future) I fully expect to get screwed in some substantial way by this.

      My husband and I are in the exact same boat. Not looking forward to it sinking. 😥

      We really liked them and had prepaid annual for a few years in a row, but last winter I had to use their customer service for the first time and it was one of the worst CS experiences I’ve ever had. It was bad enough to leave their service completely when our year was up.

      I think upload got it right, and it’d actually be something like TacoBell-Nvidia

        You’re definitely not wrong, that show and Idiocracy also have some pretty dystopian alternatives.

          Well I’m glad a few people understand. Haven’t really seen others talking about it randomly either.

    Any idea if this will effect Simple Mobile? I know a lot of these bargain carriers are the same product with a different wrapper.
