Internet deals with a Visa gift card
For home internet, Frontier gives a $100 to $300 Visa card, Astound up to $300, Verizon Fios a $50 to $200 Amazon card on 1 Gig and faster, Starry a $200 Mastercard, and AT&T Fiber and T-Mobile Fiber $100 each. Business offers go higher: up to $500 from AT&T Business Fiber and Astound Business. Most cards arrive 60 to 120 days after install, must be claimed, and expire about 6 months after they're issued.
Sign-up gift cards
Cards that pay your old provider's cancellation fee
These only pay what your old provider actually charged you to leave, up to the limit. You send a copy of the final bill.
Before you pick a plan for the card
- Do the math over a year. A $500 card on a $184.95 plan doesn't beat a $54.95 plan unless you need the speed. Subtract the card from 12 months of bills and compare that.
- You usually have to claim it. AT&T and Astound email redemption instructions after install or after 120 days. Miss the email and you lose the card.
- Cards expire. Astound's virtual Visa is valid for 6 months; T-Mobile's prepaid card also expires in 6 months. Unused money is forfeited.
- Keep proof. Screenshot the offer and your order confirmation. Missing cards are a common complaint, and the screenshot is what support asks for.
- Cancel early and you may lose it. Most offers require the account to stay active and in good standing until the card is issued.
