Verizon is impeccable. I have service when my wife doesn’t. (AT&T)

Why are you switching?

I have been with total wireless on Verizon towers for a while. Haven't had a single complaint. $63 per month after tax for 2 lines with 22 gb of data. We usually use about 10 gb so never get close to the limit.

If you don't use much mobile data, Google Fi.

Even if you use over 6GB of data, is Google Fi that bad? $80 for a single unlimited line is pretty comparable to other carriers, and ideally you'll get better service with Fi.

I think they actually throttle once you hit 6gb though, someone else will have to chime in who actually has the service though

This...I use 1gb at the most each month, so typically my monthly is less than $30.

From what I read you don't get throttled until 15GB

That's according to Google

Google has placed safe Wifi locations all over the US and Internationally to help with data usage as well. You automatically connect to these wherever you are. Also, no international fees. You pay the same.

If you have the 6GB plan, you get bumped to 15GB for free after you've used 6. So 6GB plan is really 15GB

Google Fi is great if you need seamless and easy international coverage. It's less than perfect for rock solid coverage here.

IMO Verizon and AT&T are the only legit options if you truly need reliable coverage for business and the like. Others will generally work and some may be exceptional in a given area, but my experiences with Sprint, Google Fi, etc. have been spotty over time.
