How Ting Set 12 Scores
We scored Ting Set 12 against the same four pillars we use for every plan. Here’s how it broke down.
Pricing: paying more for less, by $120 a year
Set 12 is $35/mo for 12GB. Unlimited 25 is $25/mo for unlimited high-speed data. This plan asks $10 more a month — $120 a year — to take a cap you don't need.
Nothing else differs. Same network assignment, same hotspot from your own data, same no-overage policy, same billing. With Ting Internet at home the gap widens to $25/mo, since Unlimited 25 drops to $10.

How Ting Set 12 compares
The comparison is unflattering in both columns that matter.
Who should skip it
Final Verdict
A worse plan for more money. Set 12 charges ten dollars a month above Ting's unlimited tier and gives you a 12GB ceiling in return. It exists because Ting keeps its legacy plans available to old customers, not because anyone should choose it. Switching to Unlimited 25 is free, immediate and saves $120 a year.
