I just got Helium mobile for $15 a month. I'm using the phone number as a throw away for when buying products, apps and for using loyalty programs.
I won't care if this phone gets spammed to death. Nice way to keep your regular phone number clean.
Helium support was great. Don't fear it. I'm using an old iPhone 7+. Make sure you double check if you need a physical SIM card. Helium will send you one for an extra $10.
Of course if you are strapped for cash a $15 a month phone plan is pretty great. It is however a pain in the ass to change your phone number. But if you have the time, it could be a good option.

$HNT.X $HNT.X I can't help but think about when satellite mobile was rolling out and Cell providers were adding towers all over the country and ended up eating the satellite phones lunch. Will we see something similar with something like Helium? Are we back to satellite versus on the ground rollout?
