This past April, I unexpectedly switched phone carriers (again). After a year of using and loving Visible, Spectrum Mobile made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. As part of a promotion with my home internet plan, I could get two lines of Spectrum Mobile Unlimited Plus for only $30/month per line — with that price guaranteed for two years.
Considering Spectrum Mobile Unlimited Plus lines normally cost $40/month, and my Visible plan prices had just increased, it made sense to switch to Spectrum Mobile. My monthly phone bill would go down, I’d get exactly the same Verizon coverage I had with Visible, and I would have more than enough high-speed data every month. What wasn’t there to like?
Fast forward two months, and I’m already regretting my decision to join Spectrum Mobile.

To Spectrum Mobile’s credit, the last two months haven’t been a complete disaster. In fact, from a service and coverage perspective, my experience has been pretty great.
I switched two lines from Visible to Spectrum Mobile — one for myself and one for my partner — and the transfer process was (mostly) painless. I received a physical SIM card for my Pixel 10a, which took all of 10 minutes to activate once it arrived in the mail. My partner received an eSIM for their iPhone 17, and while we had an issue with the original eSIM activation link not working, a 20-minute phone call was all it took to get a new link and have service activated on their phone.
Simply put, Spectrum Mobile has worked incredibly well for us.
