Nothing wrong with prepaid. Postpaid seems to costs a lot more for the same service. Perfect example. I was traveling from the USA to Germany on business. I had AT&T prepaid. My coworker had AT&T postpaid. Not only was he paying $80/month for close to the same service I was paying $40, when we both went to enable roaming in Europe the costs were this:

  • AT&T post-paid $10/day
  • AT&T pre-paid $25/week (= $3.57/day)

I'll buy my phone outright and keep my prepaid, thanks!

On post-paid there's also the added bonus of leaking your SSN when the provider gets breached. No such trouble with pre-paid.

I have a super old grandfathered T-Mobile prepaid plan from like... 2014? I think? Anyway I pay 30 bucks a month for unlimited talk/text, 5 gigs of high speed and infinite low speed data if that ever gets used up. AT&T tried to solicit me for a plan until I told them mine lmao

Not trying to get you to switch, but my current Mint Mobile plan is $20/month for unlimited talk & text and 15g high speed data. Uses T-Mobile's network. Only issue is that you have to pay a year at a time to get the price that low.
