Regarding the "No GPS Tracking" clause:
This does not mean your child's phone cannot use GPS or be tracked by you. It simply means that Helium does not track these accounts the way they track others, which they do for data harvesting to subsidize other free/cheap services.

You're welcome
looks like this MVNO uses TMo too - can anyone comment if Helium service, speed etc is comparable to Mint?

Not sure. I ported out and got it. I didn't talk to CS about cancelling and retention offers.
What does it mean by "deployed multiple hotspots?"
Whoa that tax is cray cray.
If going the ultra cheap route, tempted to just put the kids on the free Helium plan since most calls are gonna be data anyways via FaceTime, FB, WhatsApp, etc. Don't care about anonymized location data.

We've been on their free plan for a month with a spare family phone. You can turn your old spare devices into functional phones for free. Wild. Good for the young kids to borrow or use in a pinch, to loan to guests who visit from out of the country, to take as a backup when traveling, etc. No issues so far but admittedly it's light use.
