I switched to Visible Wireless Network from Verizon ~ My Experience & 2 Things You Must Know

I recently switched to the Visible Wireless Network from Verizon to save money. I have been with Verizon since forever. I always wanted to be with Verizon because I felt like they had the best network. After hearing and researching the Visible Wireless Network, I learned that Visible is owned by Verizon and uses the Verizon Network for a much lower monthly cost. I've been on the Visible Network for almost 2 weeks now and I'm happy with the service. My phone bill with Visible Wireless is currently $40 per month. When I add my wife to the Visible Party Plan, I expect our phone bill to go to $35 each per month. My current phone bill is nearly $200 with Verizon. There are 2 things I mention in the video if you want to know how to transfer to Visible Wireless.

Thank you SO much for this! I am a single person and my own bill is sitting at $175.. Outrageous! Also if I didn't know better I'd think it was Tom Hanks talking in this lol

Dude, this couldn't have been more timely of a vid. Been trying to get my wife's phone working all weekend...just removed physical sim, BOOM-works! Thanks a million!

I also had Verizon and decided to go with Visible about 2 years ago. I also have a camper in a seasonal campground where the WIFI is not reliable and when it is not working I turn on my hot spot and connect everything to Visible through a mini router because my phone is a Android. I only pay 25 dollars a month since I joined the party plan and I am very happy with the service.

We have been using Visible for about 4 years. It’s great. One thing to note… your data speed will be throttled back in high traffic areas and regular Verizon customers will be given priority. Not a deal breaker at all. This happens to those with a low end Verizon plan as well. Just thought someone may need to know.

I am user of visible.y daughter and I both 2 plus years. It's amazing. Area congestion is key if you live in metro area heavy Verizon users you'll feel it on weekends. I've never had a hiccup with data speeds but once in city. It's amazing. 400 gigs one month due to hotspot streaming. I don't have wifi. I will have ATT gigabit soon.

I do agree. I also got confused on that Port PIN step years ago. Lol
On the SIM card instructions I thought came with the card. That said, I need to update now with a new SIM.
I’m trying to get my parents switched over now to save them $ and trying to give them a video to watch & explain.

Super useful video!! Glad I came across it as I make the switch today.

Waiting for my SIM card tomorrow…going to put a new iPhone with new number 🎉 nice advice🎉

[gailbozeman]

Thank you...I'm on Verizon and my bill is 160 for 1 line and 1 watch (mind you I own the devices). I have a iPhone X and this makes it simple. I saw the tray, but when I switch over from another iPhone I didn't have to insert a SIM card. So these 2 steps make it better for me to understand as I use my device for work. Thank you I'm switching today.

Thank you! These tips will definitely help tomorrow when we plan to switch

Steve, I had the same experience. When I entered my PIN number it locked my other carrier's number. I had to wait a total of three days as I locked it twice by using the wrong PIN number. The chat took a great amount of wait time as everyone was switching to a sim-less iPhone 14. In the end, I have my iPhone ($45.00) and iWatch ($5.00) on Visible. At the time of writing this, they have discontinued their party plan but at least I am saving much compared to previous carriers.

Steve! This is awesome! I am in the process of doing exactly what you made this video about. My wife and I are long, long time Verizon customers and I want to switch to Visible. They no longer have the party plan, but individual basic plans are $30. So, I can have 2 phones with unlimited everything and only pay $60/month. All taxes and fees included. All of the other videos I watched said I needed the acct no. and pin. Nobody explained that the pin they were referring to was the transfer pin, as Verizon calls it. There is also an account pin which you alluded to. The transfer pin can be generated on the Verizon website and lasts for 7 days I believe. Like you my greatest fear was moving my wife, who works from home and must have phone communication at all times! So, if I do everything correctly, meaning have the acct number, porting pin and physical sim available how long should I expect the calls to that phone number to be unavailable? I can't seem to get a good answer to that question!

i just switched to visible 3-4 days ago coming from verizon. i had no issue porting my number over and i joined a party pay with about 23000 people in it so there is little to no risk of having to pay $40 per month. i will be paying $25 per month and so will you and your wife should she switch to visible also...sounds like you made a great choice...good luck.

To generate a portability PIN number I went to Verizon Contact and started a chat. I asked for the portability PIN number. They call it a Number Transfer Pin. Than I had to go through the account verification. After a couple emails and a verification number I got the pin I asked for. It’s good for 7 days. There is no search on Verizon that I could find. But, starting a chat works without actually chatting with customer support. I haven’t decided to go to Visible yet, but I’m thinking about it. Your video is very helpful. Thanks for making the effort.

Hi, thanks for the review and tips. I am on Verizon now, and not under contract, by that I mean, I own my phone outright, so it’s not being figured into my bill. Can I use the phone I have now and make the switch to Visible? It is an unlocked phone to begin with, so my thinking is, I would be able to. Thanks again for the info.

[CageyLeigh]

3 questions: 1) where in the Verizon account do you request a PIN number to port your number over? I can’t find this anywhere. 2) once the eSim is completed, does Visible send you a physical Sim to use in your phone? 3) Isn’t there info on the Sim that you want to keep? Great video, I really think I should quit Verizon for this service.

[homesaverchimney]

Had no idea. I will be doing this too!

[tonykeltsflorida]

Just because you have 2 lines, you can get the $25/a month on Party Pay. There are over 300 people in our party and everyone only pays $25.

[magicuser]

Dud you know you can just join any party. Then yousecure the 25 discount

I’m debating between US Mobile and Visible 🤔
