I just signed up with visible 3 weeks ago, i live in a rural area so i dont get a signal with any other carriers but verizon so i was so excited when i found visible because i cant afford verizon plan thats post paid because i cant work outside my house because my mother has severe Dementia,I moved into her house to care for her, im her only caretaker. I prey i dont have to change my plan, i only pay $25 a month, its honestly all i can afford

[@merrittfamilycircle]

15:59 I have been with visible for a couple of years, and I have to say I love the service and the price, especially if you need a single line, or a couple of lines, I’ve recommended the service to a bunch of my friends, thank you for keeping the existing party pay price, but I may upgrade to the visible + at some point. Keep up the good work! And thanks Michael for asking Great questions in your interview.

[@ConfidentialEncrypted]

You can upgrade to plus at $35 if you do it before may

[@CD-rl5sx]

My experience with visible has been awful. Extremely slow, data speeds, text, not going through. And customer support that takes forever. After two weeks, I wanted to port my number out and visible is making it extremely difficult. They keep coming up with excuses why they cannot do that. Had to file a complaint with the FCC yesterday, and now they are finally working on it. I would avoid this company, even as cheap as they are.

[@Defensewhiz]

So glad this video came up on the side. I was debating on switching to Visible while their promo is going on, and didn't know they offered a free trial. Just got it loaded onto my phone and will give it a try over the next week and make a decision. Thanks much for the video and the interview

[@cindycochran7505]

We were lucky to get in on the unlimited $25/month plan. Once in a while our service is slow but overall it is a deal at $25.

I also came in with a $25 plan. And then I went to pay. And it was no longer there. Great service. But was not given a head up that the $25 plan was going to be taken out. And forced to pay the $30. Also I had my Apple Watch for $5. I stopped paying because I lost my watch. Now it’s $10 a month. Also every new customer you brought into the visible service your plan would drop $5 per customer. That is no longer there.

[@tabithaedwards745]

They lied saying we would not be forced over to the new plan but we are. I'm on legacy plan. Service terminated and auto pay shut off. They don't give you very much time to make decisions on changing the phone plan.

Awesome & informative info here Michael! Thanks for asking the questions we all had and putting this out. Been with Visible since the very beginning and LOVE this company! CEO seems understanding and knows what he's doing, upgraded flawlessly to the new plan and couldn't be happier. Keep up the great work Michael & Visible!!

[@RandyBeavers]

The info I got from them, is " I HAD" to move (pay more) by the 1st of the month !! But glad I did. The Plus plan service is much much better. Wide band 5G stuff, is still hit or miss, but it's still getting built out.

[@btbfree]

I'm glad more companies are joining the competition. In my area the people who work for Verizon, AT&T and Optimum will share your network password with neighbors, and that's why you'll notice a slow internet speed as well. They could be atrocious

Hey Guys, I’m here to tell you that VISIBLE IS NOT TRANSPARENT BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH VISIBLE ADVERTISES FOR THE 15 FREE TRIAL THAT NO CREDIT CARD OR BANKING INFO IS REQUIRED, WHEN YOU ACTUALLY APPLY FOR TRIAL,YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFO!!! Secondly I have applied for the Visible+ plan since January the 27th, 2023 and the plan is still not working!! So Jeremy what do you have to say about this ongoing nightmare???

Bringing your phone to Visible can be problematic. I've been without any phone almost a week and you can imagine what that's like. I'm still without a phone and I hope this can get figured out soon.

Also do you personally use visible or a different carrier? Thanks

You can switch plans. Yes, I use Visible as my primary carrier. My full review is here: michaelsaves.com/cell-phones/visible-review/

I love visible wireless been a customer for almost one year now. Yes they had some bad experiences but what cell phone company is perfect. I remember being at a packed NBA basketball game and still hit 1,000 on the upload not making this up. Yes this year I tested it last month at the game. Honestly never seen a prepaid service who had a trade in your old phone. They have it and I love it.

[@hatchgrafix]

I just had to ditch visible for botching my upgrade. Been a loyal customer on the legacy plan for a long time. Attempted to upgrade to visible + and it was just a nightmare. Their chat support is awful, redirected so many times and never seeing a resolution. Then when I finally get somebody who probably has the leverage to make it work, they just reply we fixed it you now need to reboot your device and all will be well. It never was. Was without my primary phone line for 1 week. Would have been longer had I not told them to revert my plan to the non + and put my old sim back in. Off to find a new carrier. Cheers

[@stephaniebuchholz7272]

Yes...same here. Been loyal customer of Visible few years now and "upgrade process" has been incompetent. Recvd new sim for required upgrade of Visible phone that is just now little over 3 years old. After 2 days of upgrade not processing properly and having No hotspot, Visible supervisor called (with condescending tone)and states the iemi of this Visible phone is no longer compatible with network upgrade and I would need to purchase another Visible phone?? Appears as unscrupulous marketing ploy to sell more phones. Where is tech, existing Visible phones/ iemi compatibility should have been given priority with any upgrade?? Have 4 phones with Visible yet now considering other options given poor resolutions with this "upgrade"..??

[@jeffschweitzer1986]

I signed with visible and was new customer, I should have got a gift card for being a new customer but did not do something right so was not able to receive the $200 gift card for being a new customer with a Google pixel. I'm currently still on party pay 25$ a month. Was wondering if they are throttling data because I lose data connection many times through out the day. Forcing me to pay more be plan?

[@junitolopez3762]

Too bad I missed this interview. My question, if the network gets congested with all the subs on from Verizon post, Verizon prepaid, Visible, Total by Verizon, why sell bandwidth to other MVNO like US mobile; Xfinity; Pix; and others?

[@tripmomnichols]

My Esim transfer wouldn’t work with new iphone14 after 5 hours and 10 different support people I was forced to switch to the $30 plan! I explained I wanted to keep my $25 party plan and they said no I had to switch and everyone will be switching in January. So disappointed with visible!

[@dallas0391]

For me at home I'm on Wi-Fi . (Mostly everybody I think) I wouldn't be even using the network until I go out in my car or I'm out for a walk. Right now I'm currently on Verizon's prepaid Network 38.00 a month . I'm leaning toward visiabe mobiles 30 a month plan . I think the $45 month plan would be completely worthless to me..

[@zammymaster12345]

To be clear, the reason legacy users were converting to a new plan was because we were told that in order to remain a customer we had to switch to a new plan by January. It appears that they have reversed course on that date.

[@MichaelSaves]

I am aware. I am one of the people who was initially told by chat support about the January date. That’s why I asked the question in this interview.

[@jccbsl1]

It sounds pretty good, but I get skeptical when every answer gets prefaced with "That's a great question".. I see it from many politicians.

[@gwolfe333]

First of all thanks for letting us join up with your party plan, I was on it for just over a year, and was quite happy with the service. However, I moved, and Verizon's service was terrible in my new location. I thought I'd try the "new" network and see if it was any better, but Visible doesn't support my brand new unlocked Galaxy S21 FE that worked on the old network, so I had to leave them for greener T-Mobile fields. Porting out was dead ass easy though, and I would still tell people to give them a try, if their phone is supported.

[@MichaelSaves]

I hope you're happy with your new carrier and also in your new location. Thanks for writing in.

[@TransplantHelper]

I Need Help from Visible: the app update wanted me to set up two factor authentication. I can’t because it send the code to the original number visible gave me and not the number I ported. So I never get the code. Resulting in me basically have no access to the app to make any changes. I can’t even cancel.

[@MichaelSaves]

Chat with them from the website

[@Robert-bz6ox]

I have been a happy customer of Visible for more than five years now. I'm on the party pay plan and I love it! Now I have Visible texting me and emailing me over and over and over again trying to get me to upgrade to their newer plan. The way I see it, this is visible harassing me into upgrading to their newer plan. In the last text that I received from visible it said; "Hi Robert, Visible again. Upgrading isn't recommended. It's required". This is nothing more than plain and simple harassment! Visible Chief Commercial Officer Jeremy Bolton in this video said NOTHING about harassing their customers into upgrading to a newer plan. I can see now that this is gonna piss off a lot of Visible's long time customers Like Me! I personally don't understand why big businesses like Visible take something that works very well and change it.

[@MichaelSaves]

Visible launched the new plans in August 2022. That's when people began upgrading. Jeremy said in the video there would be a time when it doesn't make sense to continue operating the old network. Our interview was in November. It's now April. That time appears to be coming fairly soon -- perhaps several months -- so I encourage you to take advantage of the upgrade offer or consider another carrier. I would not recommend being the last person on the old network and scrambling to switch at the last minute whenever that time comes.

[@wisperone11]

I am one of those who upgraded because of the emails. Before upgrading, I had all my devices able to connect to my hotspot for internet. 16:00 Now that I’ve upgraded, I can only connect one device at a time. Before I could connect my iPad, my phone, my laptop, and my tv. I have a Roku TV (not the box) and Dish as my satellite provider. Now, I I want to stream thru m TV I have to turn off any and all devices to access internet. I believe I messed up by upgrading. 16:00

[@stephaniebuchholz7272]

Have 4 phones with Visible and a loyal customer for over 3 years and unfortunately the transition of couple of our Visible phones Did not process as stated in this video. Phone 1, little over 2 years old was determined "incompatible" with new network and unable to continue to use?? Visible phone 2 began intermittently having issues with hearing callers after Visible provided 2 separate "upgrade" sim cards yet this same phone had absolutely No issues before this upgrade. Thus, we were left to Purchase 2 new phones to transition /upgrade with Visible? Appears a form of marketing Visible phones and when asked about the "discounts" for loyal customers there were none available?

[@ItzWallyMan100]

I'm currently on Metro by T-Mobile. Their "unlimited" plan is not necessarily unlimited.. up to 35gb a month... Does Visible ($45 plan) have something stupid like that?

[@N2tech]

The $30 doesn't mention the 50gb limit and its speed is capped at 5mbps. I switched to the $45 with an iPhone 13 Pro Max and saw no signal improvement. I ran Consumer Cellular side by side with Visible in Weirsdale Florida and CC had more coverage and better data. Consumer Cellular also offers family plans, I pay $93 after tax for 3 phones unlimited and the data speeds don't have a cap.

[@MichaelSaves]

A few things to clear up: Visible doesn't have a 50GB limit. The 5 Mbps speed cap is only for mobile hotspot. On the $30 plan, download speeds are capped at 200 Mbps. But if Consumer Cellular (I assume you're on AT&T) works better in your area, I'm happy for you.

[@wisperone11]

Unfortunately I upgraded (I’m on party pay) prior to seeing this. On my old SIM card, I phone, I had internet access to all my devices iPad, phone, tv, streaming), now I cannot connect to only one device. What’s up? Does anybody know why I cannot connect all my devices again?

I really want to switch from Consumer Cellular )which btw no longer uses TMobile network - only ATT) to Visible. I like CC fine but the ATT signal is not good for my location. After watching this interview I signed up for the free trial. Even tho I am not millennial or X I find that all customer support is pretty bad whether digital or phone. BUT the Visible is really testing my patience. The app is not intuitive and the "Live" agent is more robotic than a robot. Responses are dumb and exceedingly slow. Please tell Jeremy Bolton that this is a weak link in the Visible service! Best signal is only a selling point if it can be obtained.

Agreed. Verizon is very good in my area, but my speeds never got out of the single digits even with the $45 plan from Visible. Customer service told me my average speed of 7 mbps was great. I have never had a phone service with speeds like that. I switched to Tello and get between 30 - 40 mbps. And they use T-Mobile which is normally pretty crappy in my area. I was using my phone as a hotspot to play Rust when Xfinity went down. No issues at all and cheaper than Visible!

Verizon's old plans used CDMA LTE which is old technology. T-Mobile, Sprint (now owned by T-Mobile), and some of the other carriers used GSM. T-Mobile and Verizon phones can't be ported to each other. They are scurrying to make it all 5G. Now Verizon is switching over to GSM too with the 5G, but very slowly. I used to be on Straight Talk on an old CDMA LTE 3 phone. Verizon bought Straight Talk several back. Verizon put on their website they are hoping by the end of Dec to be mainly on 5G and turn the LTE 3 off. I bought an unlocked 5G phone on Amazon that works on T-Mobile and switched (Straight Talk sucked). Your phone is not going to be compatible because it can't move to the upgraded, faster network. Anyone who stays on the cheapest plans with Visible probably won't get fast speeds without a new 4/5G phone and paying more. If you pay less, you get less. You're also going to probably be at the bottom of the tier. Verizon's customers get the data first, then it goes out to other companies like Visible that buy from them. Then Visible cuts it down more, giving more to those who pay more. If the network gets congested, good luck getting data. I'm done with middlemen like Visible and Straight Talk. I'm going to try to stay with the big cell phone companies. Not only that, but I'm on the top tier now, and I pay $50 a month!

I'm grateful that Visible gave me the opportunity to ask these questions. I used feedback from my readers/viewers to ask the questions they wanted answers to. For some context, I have invited dozens of companies to come on this channel to answer my questions. This is only the third interview I've done! (Previously Philo and Pluto TV.)

I've been with them through multiple accounts since they started it was awesome they have not taken care of us all the promotions for new hope like heck they fix this .I don't like the new change the party pay was a lot better before where I live in rural new Mexico. I used to use the hotspot for my online gaming now it barely gets to 5 upload if that and the download is been worse I've gotten in contact with them they say they can't do nothing. no I don't have a 5G phone I just bought this phone from them in July they didn't say nothing about them having to force us over

[@sunshinegypsea]

Could I port my T-Mobile # into visible to get the gift card deal & port it out after 3 months or sooner since I’d be bringing my own device? & then I could just get a new # with visible to keep my service? I’m going to use this as a 2nd service with T-Mobile

[@MichaelSaves]

The gift card deal is if you buy a new device and make 3 payments, so it doesn't work if you bring your own device.

[@sunshinegypsea]

@@MichaelSaves thanks for letting me know that!

[@judycaneline]

Visible says my phone is no longer compatible but won't say why. It's still compatible with Verizon. They won't say which Android phones are compatible or what specs are necessary. If I upgrade my network with them, I'd basically be stuck using an iPhone or buying an android through them. Why play games with telling us which phones are compatible and why?

[@AyTee77]

Visible do not support phones bought outside of USA. Just found out from Visible support.

[@tasty_boy1905]

So I loved Visible but it looks like I will have to leave. Because the new network will not support mine and my wife's Oneplus phones anymore. We purchased these phones in the last year and for the price to performance I will not be letting them go just to keep Visible. Though my phone is the 8T my wife's is the new flagship model so I feal there is no reason for hers to no longer be compatible. Verizon still supports them so I see no reason to suddenly remove their compatibility from Visibles network. Just wrong to do to existing customers but makes it easy to leave them.

[@robertlewis3712]

Visible forced me to go to the new plan. I had no choice to remain on my party pay plan. To say we can stay on our party pay plan doesn’t go along with the visible letter sent out in May. The letter states “Upgrading isn’t recommended. It’s required”.

I’ve had a similar experience (BTW, this particular video didn’t have 1080p as an option because Zoom didn’t allow a true HD recording. It wasn’t 1080p like most of my videos and others online. Next time I’ll record another way.)

@@PradhyumK I am aware of what people are experiencing. I asked this question in the interview.

[@SteveRichfield]

The BIG hidden gotcha is that the new plans limit your hotspot network to just one device - so your wireless printer won't work any longer, and it is COMPLICATED to move from one computer to another. Make a mistake and your network just stops working, with NO message indicating what is wrong or how to fix it. This new one-device limit makes it impossible for non-gurus to use this service. I finally gave up and bought a tethered router where I could switch things around without having to run from machine to machine shutting things down and bringing them back up. What a royal mess they have made of their otherwise nice service. Sad.

[@MichaelSaves]

The old plan also had a one device limit for mobile hotspot - it just wasn’t enforced

[@SteveRichfield]

@@MichaelSaves Notice here that printers don't utilize the Internet. Visible CLAIMS to limit to one Internet device, but the way they implement it they limit YOU to one device in total, Internet or not, in the process of limiting THEM to one device. Since I posted my comment I picked up a cheap router that handles the printer without involving anything Visible can see, and I discovered that leaving a looping video running in low resolution with volume off in an unused tab holds my connection forever. Also, there are hacks to overcome the one-devise limit, using NetShare or PdaNet+.

[@captainjim605]

I was disappointed that I joined Visible after doing a few days of their free trail and was told their their offer of 15OFF did not apply to someone who had done their free trial. And within a few weeks of switching to Visible, I bought an iPhone 14 Pro from them and was told their offer of a gift card was "only for new members." The service thus far has been pretty much the same as Verizon (expected, since they use Verizon's towers), who we were with for 25 years. Base on that amount of time with Verizon, I think I have shown that I tend to be "a loyal customer."

[@johnsantiago4810]

So basically, people who take their free trial are not going to be considered new customers to be able to get their free gift card and 15 dollars off?

[@captainjim605]

@@johnsantiago4810 Yep.

[@gabegardner6502]

There is a downfall to Visible Free Trial. Not all phones are compatible with the free trial which sucks. The reason that not all phones are compatible is because not all phones are esim compatible. So I think Visible needs to reconsider their free trial for people to do not have phones that are esim compatible.
