About Cricket Wireless

Cricket is a simple, affordable wireless service offering consumers and local businesses a flat-rate unlimited service over the latest technology, high-quality, all-digital CDMA2000 1X and 1xEV-DO wireless network. Designed for customers whose basic and advanced wireless needs have not been met by traditional communications companies, Cricket is the pioneer of unlimited services with no long-term commitments or credit checks required. Cricket offers customers access to a variety of the latest devices and feature-rich mobile applications such as unlimited text, instant and picture messaging, Mobile Web, popular games, ringtones and wallpapers. Cricket is offered by Leap Wireless International, Inc., headquartered in San Diego, CA.

Cricket customers use their wireless service differently than the average mobile phone user. Based on company surveys, Cricket customers talk an average of 1,500 minutes per month - more than double the industry average for wireless cell phone service providers. And 51% of Cricket customers have "cut the cord" and rely solely on Cricket for their phone service. By comparison, 12% of all other U.S. cellular phone company subscribers rely solely on their mobile phone (Yankee Group survey). In addition, 93% of Cricket customers reported their Cricket wireless phone was their primary phone, compared to only 50% of traditional cell phone company customers. By offering customers truly unlimited anytime minutes in every plan, there is really no reason to have another phone.
