Cricket has new service plans that include only data and messaging, with no access to voice service. With the plans, messaging (SMS and MMS) is unlimited, but international service is not included.
Data allotments are for high-speed data at the full speed of AT&T’s LTE network, instead of capped at 8 Mbps as with Cricket’s other plans. Streaming video is limited to SD quality by default, although HD can be enabled. The plans cost: $25/month for 3 GB of data, $35 for 10 GB, and $70 for 30 GB. A $5/month discount is available for the top plan when using AutoPay, making it $65/month. Add-ons are also available for even more data: $5 for an extra 2 GB or $10 for 5 GB.
Cricket is also launching the Cricket Turbo Hotspot, a new mobile hotspot made by Netgear, for $120. Plus, customers who switch to Cricket can take $200 off a Samsung Galaxy S10, or get the Samsung Galaxy J2 Pure for free.
