Charter Spectrum™ – the umbrella used by Charter Communications® to market its consumer services and products - came to encompass much more with Charter’s acquisition of Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks in 2016. The second largest cable provider in the U.S. might still need a step or two to beat Xfinity from Comcast, but looks all poised to take on the battle for the rank of America’s largest cable service provider. Spectrum took a leaf out of its competitor’s book, by launching a mobile service for its valued subscribers in summer 2018, and has since gained the status of America’s fastest-growing mobile providers in terms of subscriptions.
Spectrum Mobile is a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), and provides services using the established pre-existing network infrastructure of Verizon and Spectrum's own huge network of more than 600,000 Wi-Fi hotspots. Exclusively available to Spectrum Internet subscribers, Spectrum Mobile gives the best of both worlds to users as getting an MVNO’s service means you bag a much better deal than by subscribing to mobile service from a major carrier – on one hand you get to savor the same great coverage, while on the other you save on cellular data since you have access to the Spectrum Wi-Fi hotspot network.
Apart from having a Spectrum internet subscription, you must also sign up for AutoPay and meet credit requirements to subscribe to Spectrum mobile.
Moreover, for the first month, the new Spectrum Mobile or Spectrum Internet subscribers will only be allowed to access only two lines on Spectrum Mobile. However, after the first 30 days, you are permitted to use up to five lines.
Initially, Spectrum required you to buy or lease a new Spectrum Mobile handset. However, that prerequisite is no more. Still, if you think it better to choose from all the up-to-the-minute Apple and Samsung models that Spectrum has on offer, and which match perfectly with the Spectrum Mobile service, here are a few to tickle your interest.
• Apple iPhone 11, Pro & Pro Max
• Samsung Galaxy Note10 & Note10
• Samsung Galaxy S10 , S10e & S10
• Samsung S20 5G, S20 Ultra 5G & S20 5G
• Google Pixel 4
• LG Stylo 5 & Q70
If you wish to bring your own device, it is recommended you take it to your nearest Spectrum store location to check if the device is compatible with the Spectrum Mobile service or you may check online.
Spectrum Mobile offers a choice of two data plans to subscribers: Unlimited & By the Gig. The cherry on top is that just like all other Spectrum subscriptions, signing up for Spectrum mobile plans doesn’t bind you to a contract. Additionally, you get to experience DVD-quality video streaming, access to Spectrum Wi-Fi hotspots, great offers for domestic and international long-distance calling, and also the option to switch plans if you like.
