Cricket's system is very outdated, switching from Verizon was a major pain for us. We saw online that we should be able to keep our numbers but that was not an option at all. Calculated an immediate savings for our family of five of nearly $300 a month vs Verizon however that was nearly a decade ago and times have changed. I have noticed the price differences for unlimited everything between carriers is seriously reduced. Cricket is still a decent carrier, offering good service with a top value compared to all other options. Going on 10 years with Cricket now, here is my verdict: Best wireless option for North America and doesn't dumb down to consumers or act like a snob like Verizon. Prices and coverage are fair, probably the only network with this balance. There is zero difference between what I notice currently everyday being with others on other networks. Every network has random dead spots, have yet to be with anyone on AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, or others that consistently keeps more coverage than I do. My sister has gone to Montreal and was glad to get great service and data at no additional costs or tweaks to our plan. The online account experience is smooth and intuitive for maintaining, tracking, and adjusting each part of our family plan. I am not happy with a five line limit. This is probably the biggest issue with Cricket. There's also no business or professional options offering faster speeds, enhanced 5G WIFI hotspots, or international coverage. I really want to see Cricket maintain its head ahead of the others in the next couple years as competition continues to evolve and bring in smarter better values options. read more
