You are 100% wrong.
This was scheduled to happen in 2019, then extended because plans were not properly made.

Well, they seemed to really piss off Anthony Quinn Warner...
Try reading the article!
“Women and minorities hit hardest” is an old joke. I think the press really got that started.
I have used redpocket things,
I like mintsim too.
Lots of deals right now for all the MVNO plans
I’m aware. In this case it’s not funny. Nor cute.
I got it on sale last moth for a year of service 1000 minutes talk, unlimited text and 1gb data every 30 days, which suits my needs perfectly, for $84.00.
That’s what I was paying Verizon per month.

Moto G Play 2021. $158 on Amazon. Does 4G and LTE and everything just fine. If you want to play ginormous bandwidth sucking, processor intensive games on your phone you can afford an $800 phone.
Seems like this rollout could be done as backwardly compatible.
Ditto.
I provided you with facts to back up my position
Your article is ‘fear mongering fake news’

Don’t worry. Once we pass the “Build Back Better” boondoggle everyone will have 5G or 6G! We promise.
Didn’t read it, did ya.
True story:
AT&T notified me (by mail) that the 3G network would be shut down this Feb. Fair enough.
Then I was stranded on the side of the road and tried to use my mobile phone for help. Guess what? My call was re-routed to their customer service center. I tried again, same deal. The recording said it was “mandatory” to talk to me before they would allow me to dial out again. So I waited for 20 minutes before a rep picked up.
When he finally did, he asked me for my account password, which I did not know because I was in my car. Then he said he could not help me. At that point, I started calling him (and AT&T) every name in the book and told them I needed HELP to get my car fixed and back home. After several minutes of that, he graciously let me use the phone (that I had paid for) for another day until I called him back.
After I got home, I threw my AT&T phone in the trash and switched to another carrier.
Exactly, what happened to all of the "Broadband Service Upgrade Funds" that have been added to every bill Passed out of Congress for the last 10 years?
I would venture into the back pockets of numerous Government Parasites, er, I mean employees. Same Difference.
I needed something newer that would connect for video doctor consults.
I also needed to switch from Verizon to ATT to get signal at the weekend place.
Redpocket makes it easy and I now pay for year what I was paying Verizon per month.
I was able port my number that I have had since I had a bag phone, too.
Sorry about your AT&T frustration. Glad you pitched it!
Sounds like a great deal !
if you have wifi you can connect to at home this is probably all most people use.
Elon Musk’s Satellite Internet will hopefully reach a lot of areas that 3G, 4G, and 5G don’t.
THAT would be wonderful. I live rurally so service is spotty.
