Cricket offers more 4G LTE coverage, affordable prices and loyalty rewards 

Atlanta, GA, Aug. 22, 2014 — Cricket Wireless is offering T-Mobile and Metro PCS customers a $100 bill credit and five great reasons to switch. The $100 bill credit* offer is available from Aug. 24 to Oct. 19, 2014, at Cricket stores nationwide and online.  There is no limit on the number of lines a customer can switch to Cricket, receiving a $100 bill credit for each line transferred.

The new Cricket Wireless experience offers customers:

  1. More 4G LTE coverage than T-Mobile and Metro PCS, period
  2. Taxes and fees included – no surprises, the price you see is the price you pay
  3. A free smartphone every year with Cricket Rewards**
  4. Plans starting at $35 a month after $5 credit for using auto pay ***
  5. No annual contracts

With Cricket’s simple affordable pricing plans, a $100 bill credit equals more than two months of free service with the Basic Plan at $35 (after a $5 credit for using auto pay) and the Smart Plan at $45 (after a $5 auto pay credit). Customers who sign up with the Pro Plan at $55 (after $5 auto pay credit) get the equivalent of nearly two months of service free.

“T-Mobile and Metro PCS customers looking to switch will find the new Cricket a smart choice,” said Cricket vice president and chief marketing officer Janna Ducich. “We give consumers straightforward, affordable pricing, offer nationwide 4G LTE coverage, and reward their loyalty. And for the next few weeks, we’ll give them a $100 bill credit to see it for themselves.”
