Mint Mobile's Price Cut
Mint Mobile has announced a significant reduction in their subscription price, lowering the cost of Mint Unlimited from $30 a month to just $15 a month. This decision was made after inquiries about whether big wireless companies could raise their prices due to inflation. The company's approach aims to attract new customers with an enticing offer, positioning itself as a budget-friendly option in an industry often criticized for high costs. It's important to note that this promotion requires a $45 upfront payment for new customers on their first three-month plan.
