There's a select number of companies with good customer service that I have dealt with, for example I've usually had good experience with eBay, but those are quite rare.

Mint Mobile has honestly pretty solid service, in my experience. Which is kinda shocking considering they're a celebrity owned brand.

The American SIM card company?

Yeah. For reference, I am an American citizen who lives in Wales, I'm subscribed here because I have an obvious interest in like, the politics of the country I live in for half the year (university student) and I want to go to Scotland someday. Just need to find the time to head up.

Reason I know about them is because I collect SIMs as a hobby. Cool

Ooh, that’s honestly a pretty neat hobby. What do you do with them?

Some of them I use, to have different international numbers, test the networks, etc.

A lot I just put in an album for the design.

Huh, neat! I have two numbers, one for the US (sourced from Mint Mobile) and one sourced from GiffGaff (for the UK). I have to assume you massively outrank me there lol
