The Mint Mobile Scam: How Ryan Reynolds’ Company Destroyed My Business

For nearly three years, I paid for Mint Mobile service believing I was getting a premium experience at a lower price—just like Ryan Reynolds’ Mint Mobile commercials promised.

But Mint Mobile lied. My number for over 10 years was 530-906-6188. MINT killed it!

Please call me at 530-786-3095 and I will actually answer it!

I left Verizon behind because Mint Mobile false advertising claimed that I would get the same quality of service for a fraction of the cost. Instead, what I got was a Mint Mobile scam—a phone number that was silently disconnected, calls that never reached me, and a business damaged beyond repair.

Mint Mobile’s Network Problems Cost Me Everything

The nightmare started when my first Mint Mobile SIM card wouldn’t activate. After hours of troubleshooting, Mint Mobile customer support finally claimed I was connected.

But Mint Mobile service issues remained hidden until it was too late.

🚫 Any call routed through Verizon’s network failed to connect.
📵 Clients who called my Mint Mobile number got the message: "We’re sorry, the number you dialed is disconnected."
🚨 Google, WhatsApp, and Instagram denied verification codes because they also thought my number was dead.

And here’s the worst part: Mint Mobile knew.

They were the only company that could have fixed the Mint Mobile network problems, yet instead, Mint Mobile customer complaints were met with blame-shifting and excuses.

• First, Mint Mobile blamed Verizon.

• Then, Mint Mobile blamed Samsung.

• And in the end, Mint Mobile refused to issue a refund.

For nearly three years, I paid $2,800 to Mint Mobile service, not knowing that I was trapped in a Mint Mobile scam.

The Final Betrayal: T-Mobile Proves That Mint Mobile Was the Problem

After countless hours wasted, I switched to T-Mobile—the very network Mint Mobile T-Mobile claims to use.

And guess what?

💡 Both my wife’s phone and mine were activated within 10 minutes.
📲 No more blocked calls, no more "disconnected" messages.
🔗 Everything just worked.

If Mint Mobile T-Mobile was truly the same service, then why did my Mint Mobile number disconnected every time a Verizon user tried to call me? Why did Mint Mobile service failure cost me business, clients, and time?

Because Mint Mobile deceptive practices kept me paying, while Mint Mobile complaints were ignored.

Ryan Reynolds’ Mint Mobile Scam: The Lies That Made Him a Billionaire

Ryan Reynolds’ Mint Mobile commercials built trust with humor and celebrity status.

But while we laughed, he made $1.35 billion selling Mint Mobile to T-Mobile—a company that knew its service was broken.

And today, Mint Mobile fraud continues.

Even after I switched, I still had months of prepaid Mint Mobile service left. Did Mint Mobile T-Mobile credit my account? No.

Mint Mobile refund requests were denied.
Mint Mobile class action lawsuits may be the only way to hold them accountable.

What You Must Do If You Use Mint Mobile

If you are still on Mint Mobile service, test your number immediately.

🔹 Call your Mint Mobile number from Verizon and AT&T networks.
🔹 Try receiving a verification code from Google or WhatsApp.
🔹 Ask a client if they have ever reached your voicemail—or if they got a disconnected message.

And if you find out what I did—that Mint Mobile network problems have left you unreachable—file a complaint.

✅ Report Mint Mobile deceptive practices to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
✅ File a Mint Mobile lawsuit with the California Attorney General.
✅ Join a Mint Mobile class action if one is available. Call me 530-786-3095

Because if we don’t hold Mint Mobile accountable, they will continue tricking customers, ignoring Mint Mobile complaints, and profiting off deception.

🚨 Never Again. 🚨
