Analysis

Lycamobile's $29 phone plan is now the cheapest monthly phone plan on the market to include unlimited everything with at least 4 GB of data at high speeds.  The only way to get a cheaper plan with more data elsewhere is by committing to a multi-month plan.  Mint SIM is one such multi-month MVNO provider to offer a cheaper plan.  The MVNO is currently offering new  subscribers who buy 3 months of service an additional 3 months of service for free.  Mint SIM's top deal includes unlimited everything with the first 10 GB of data at high speeds each month at an average cost of just $12.50/month.  Both Mint SIM and Lycamobile operate on the T-Mobile network.
