I'm going to be completely serious here:

I signed up for Mint Mobile's fixed home wireless service because I'd had such a great experience with their phone service. I've used their phone service for a long time, and it's been rock solid.

It's really weird, but their mobile service is fantastic. Their fixed home wireles service was absolutely awful. There's literally no reason why it should have been bad, but I prepaid for three months of their fixed home wireless, and switched to a different provider very soon after signing up. Their mobile service is still very good, and absolutely worth it. It literally is $360 per year. One payment, once a year, unlimited. Works well.

I was completely baffled why their fixed wireless was so bad.
