Arguably the best prepaid MVNO in the United States, US Mobile, has just announced an incredible offer for those who don’t mind paying for their plans on a yearly basis.
Starting today, all customers who port in a number and purchase one of US Mobile’s annual plans will get a second annual line completely free. The biggest downside of this offer is that it’s only available on the Dark Star network.
Another caveat would be the fact that if you get the most expensive Unlimited Premium plan, your second annual line, which is free, is going to be the Unlimited Starter plan. Also, customers who choose the Unlimited Starter plan will get a second annual line for free on Unlimited Flex, the carrier’s cheapest plan.

Buy Annual Unlimited Starter ($228/year or $19/month) – Get a Free Annual Unlimited Flex
For those unaware, US Mobile offers plans on all three major carriers’ networks, as well as add-on plans that allow customers to add up to two extra networks to their devices. This way, you won’t have to worry that your favorite carrier doesn’t have coverage in a certain area you’re visiting.
As mentioned earlier, US Mobile’s deal is only available on the Dark Star network, which is the MVNO’s designated name for AT&T’s network. The other two are Warp (Verizon Wireless) and LightSpeed (T-Mobile).
