Default Cricket Cell Phone Service

There has been some discussion on the best cell phone service here in the Villages, but I have not seen anything about Cricket Cell service.

We are looking to possibly change service to Cricket because the price of Verizon has gone to $135.00/month plus taxes and service charges and one of our phones does not have a data package, only talk. Cricket would be $70/month everything included for 2 phones, unlimited Talk and text and high speed data.

Sounds tempting. Any comments?

We have had cricket for about a year. Is it perfect? No. It is as reliable as our friends with different carriers, who all pay more.

Cricket uses att towers, great signal. If you have five lines on your account its only $100 with tax.TOTAL. That price can not be beat for quality unlimited, talk text and data. Although they do throttle speed after 2.5 gigabits per line.

We've used Cricket about 2 years and are very pleased. No dropped calls! They are owned by ATT and use their towers. No contract. Taxes included. It's a great deal.

Is it a good service when you travel also?? And do you get internet and GPS, texting, etc?
