I agree. MVNOs can be a really good deal. My personal cell is with T-Mobile, 
but my business iPhone is with Ting which runs off of both the Sprint and 
T-Mobile networks and has a pay for what you use structure. I think I paid 
something like $15 on my most recent Ting bill. 
As with anything, shop around and look for the best deal which will best suit 
your needs.

I have used MVNO's that run on T-Mobile and Verizon. I paid a lot less for my 
service than if I had obtained it from the carrier. On Xfinity mobile, my 
download speeds are 60 MBPS. I would hardly call this a throttle. It is just as 
fast as my home Internet connection. While throttling did happen in the past, 
it is less common now. It is true some advanced features are not available. For 
example, WIFI calling is not provided by Xfinity Mobile but is offered to 
Verizon customers.
This is not an issue for me though because I can call any number in the US and 
Canada on WIFI from Google Hangouts.  Also, Verizon customers can choose their 
ring tone length but Xfinity Mobile customers have a fixed length of 30 
seconds.  These are small matters.
My cell phone bill was $12 last month, a fraction of the cost of Verizon.
