Is Ting Flex Worth It for 1 Line?

Ting's $5/GB plan for 1 line costs $10 per month.

It rides on the T-Mobile or Verizon networks for coverage.

It includes unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and $5/GB of high-speed data per month. The data is shut off after you reach your high-speed allotment. You can use up to all $5/GB of data as hotspot data.

The Ting Flex plan has deprioritized data. Having deprioritized data means you may temporarily experience slower speeds during times when the cellular network is busy. You'll resume getting the fastest speeds available when the network is no longer busy.

Overall, I do not recommend the Ting Flex plan. It is too expensive for the features and data you get.
