How Mint Mobile keeps this entrepreneur connected everywhere he does business

Nowadays, many of us use our phones just as much for work as we do for fun, so it’s crucial to have a reliable wireless carrier that can accommodate everything you need to download important documents or to reserve a table at your favorite sushi spot. Such was the case with tech entrepreneur Richard Thiot, from Dallas, TX.  

“The way they’ve laid it out is just amazing”

Working in the tech industry, Richard appreciates efficiency as much as anybody, so the ease of switching to Mint made a great first impression.

“I’ve been with Mint for just over three years. The way that they’ve laid it out is just amazing compared to the other mobile carriers.”

Mint Mobile offers wireless in bulk, where the more months you buy in advance, the more money you save. Our new customer offer allows you to purchase three months of any plan for the lowest possible price. We have four plans to choose from, depending on your mobile data needs (because they all come with unlimited talk & text). Not sure how much data you need? Take our brief quiz and we’ll match you to the perfect plan.

“When I switched, I found that the service was completely comparable and I really didn’t give up anything to be a Mint Mobile customer.”

Once we find the right plan for you, switching is easy with our helpful blog, especially if you’re switching from AT&T or switching from Verizon. In addition to bringing your number, you can bring your own phone too (we call that BYOP for short). Keep your phone, keep your number… The only noticeable difference will be the extra savings in your bank account. 

“The coverage is with me all the way” 

Being a tech entrepreneur with a full social calendar, Richard needed a wireless plan that could keep up. Whether he’s at home or on the road, Mint keeps him connected on the nation’s largest 5G network. 

“I use my phone for a lot of business phone calls, as well as personal phone calls. In fact, in my office, I have my phone set up for Wi-Fi Calling. That’s a feature that Mint offers that’s a benefit to me.”

Wi-Fi Calling is one of many free features included on all Mint Mobile plans that our subscribers enjoy taking advantage of, in addition to free mobile hotspot, free international calling to Canada, Mexico & The UK, free roaming in Canada and Scam Screener, our free feature that protects you from unwanted calls by letting you know they’re likely a scam before you answer. 

“I sometimes drive for business to different cities, and the coverage is with me all the way. Recently, I just drove Route 66 on my way back home. Kind of went out of my way, but I had cellular coverage the whole route. It was great.”

“They’re looking out for you as a customer”

Beyond just quality service, Richard appreciates Mint’s customer-centric approach, strengthened by our award-winning Care team and beneficial Refer-a-Friend program.

 “(Mint Mobile is) very consumer minded. They’re looking out for you as a customer, and it’s a refreshing experience.” How refreshing exactly? 96% of subscribers who called our care line were “highly satisfied” with their care experience.* Whether you’re still in the process of switching or you’ve been with Mint for years and just want to make sure you’re getting the most out of your service, our Care team has you covered.

“It’s as much as you could ask for“

Ultimately, what Richard appreciates about Mint is that we provide premium wireless at an affordable price. 

“I think that you’ll find, as a Mint Mobile customer, your service is indistinguishable from other carriers. Your service is always there, it works, and it’s as much as you could ask for.”
