Millenicom still first choice?

Is Mellenicom still the first choice for internet service for those without a cell phone data plan?

Thanks
  • Also left Millenicom when they raised their prices. Wasn't competitive for our varying usage. 4G is worthless in most areas we go.

    I think they hurt themselves by bumping out of the sweet spot usage/cost wise.

    Since we only use around 3-4gb a month, and don't require a super fast connection we use a Straight Talk America MIFI from Walmart. 3G speed on Verizon's network for $40 per month.
    I had Mellenicom and was leaving 10 to 12GB on the table each month. When they raised it from $70/mo to $90/mo I switched to ST as well. Like you I didn't need the 4G speeds either.

    It depends on your data usage. Over 10GB per month is generally less expensive through Millenicom.

    Up to a point.

    We're full timers who use a lot of data per month. We've been using a combination of Verizon + Millenicom data plans -- typically, 14-18GB from Verizon + 20GB from Millenicom.

    However, when Verizon lowered the price of their data plans this month, we signed up for a 40GB plan just through Verizon & saved about $80/month.
