Unused high-speed data automatically rolls over, up to a 100GB total balance
This is a first for me. Tello is good for rolling unused data/minutes forward but only if you renew prior to the 30-day monthly expiration date, otherwise balances reset. Digging deeper I find this:

https://tello.com/help_center/dat...a-rollover

1. For Custom Plans (Non-Unlimited)
There is no automatic rollover for standard plans, but you can easily roll over your balance manually!
  • How to do it: You must manually renew or change your plan at least 24 hours before your official Autopay renewal date.
  • The Rule: If you renew early, any leftover balance will carry over and stay active for the next 30 days.
  • If you let Autopay run: If you allow Autopay to renew your plan automatically on the 30th day, your unused balance will not roll over and will be lost.

2. For Unlimited Plans (Automatic Loyalty Rollover)
Automatic Data Rollover is a special feature for our Unlimited Plan users. It allows you to carry over your unused high-speed data to the next month automatically—no extra steps required!
  • The Benefit: You can roll over up to 50 GB of unused high-speed data every month.
  • The Limit: You can stack your data until you reach a total monthly balance of 100 GB.

So this is either new to Tello, or it's always been there and wasn't visible to light customers like me who have been doing the less-expensive custom plans.

Dang, they run on T-Mobile. I'm needing to get away from T-Mobile. They relocated their antenna to a new tower instead of the water tower where it was (relocating Sprint's 10 year contracts), and now my home has crappy T-Mobile signal. I only get 4G LTE phone and speeds now with 2 bars instead of the 3 bars (inside) or all bars (outside) 5G signal like I used to have. Whoever decided the new location is a moron. Going back to Visible looks more and more appealing every day, hoping they have the holiday Visible+ promos they had last year.

Visible routinely runs major holiday discounts, including 50% off annual plans like Visible+ Pro, though exact promotional lineups for later in the year are not officially announced until November. [1, 2]
What to Expect
  • Black Friday / Cyber Monday: Historically, Visible launches aggressive holiday discounts around mid-November (such as past codes like BLACKFRIDAY50) dropping the annual Visible+ Pro plan down to roughly $225 upfront ($18.75/month). [1]
  • Current Alternatives: You do not necessarily have to wait for the holidays; Visible is currently running major promotions on Visible Deals, such as the SAVEHALF code for 50% off the annual Visible+ Pro plan ($225 for the first year) or long-term monthly savings codes. [1, 2]

I'd do it now, while you have a fallback.

no service for an entire month during their 4G to 5G migration. customer support totally useless and kept asking me to send and re-do/re-send the same diagnostics over and over.

it got so bad I actually got my money back.

depends on your use. i use way more and would max out in a few days. work from home, 4k streaming, downloads, etc. streaming a 4K movie on Netflix consumes about 7 GB of data per hour, so this is a no go for me.

Just switched my spare line to Tello after 8 years of free service on Freeup. Tello has always worked well for me over the years.

Been using tello since Ring Plus went out of business and tello has always been great. The service is fine and the customer service was awesome.
