I've thought about doing the same, but four things have stopped me: 1. At $12/GB, my wife and I would have to use fewer than 8 to match what we pay now. Most months would be ok, but a few--like summer, when we stream music at anchor--we'd be over. 2. In most MVNO scenarios, only Verizon-owned towers are accessible to the subscriber (in this case, Comcast). I believe that number is lower because it doesn't include Verizon roaming deals. 3. For the CM deal to work, it has to use WiFi as often as possible, and I'm not entirely confident in the WiFi switching protocol. 4. The new phone. I buy my unlocked phones outright and use them for a couple years. My current one is a G5S+ I bought for $150 15 months ago that I'll get another year easy out of.
Low usage people can score if buying the phone can be cheap, but the value diminishes as (data) usage increases.
