    Verizon vs Cricket?

    Ok so I have Verizon but my contract is over and I'm thinking about moving to Cricket. What are the pros and cons of Cricket. I mean I really like Verizon but Cricket sounds good. I don't know anyone who owns a cricket tho...

      I owned a Cricket when i was a teenager and before I had any credit. I have had Verizon for about the past 5 years. Cricket phones are NOTORIOUS for dropping calls, i would drop a call in mid conversation at least once a day. Ive only had a dropped call on Verizon about 3x over the years ive had their service.

      Cricket is a good service if you are just trying to cut your bills down and do not travel outside of metro areas alot, i find the service to be spotty when you get about 50 miles outside of a big city.

        Its one of those Phone companies who dont require a credit check, they'll give anyone a phone. I believe the person signing up for the plan has to be 18. Unlimited minutes, text messaging, and all that. Its really popular among people 13-25 and those who have bad credit. Many parents buy their kids a Cricket plan as a first plan because of the unlimited minutes and not having to worry about paying rediculous charges for going over the alotted minutes their plan called for.

        Find great buys on cell phones, plans, & service at Cricket, where you get reliable nationwide coverage, affordable rates & no annual contract.

              No its only in the US as far as i know, i had it the Nashville area about 5 or 6 years ago. It couldve gotten better by now for all i know, but i just remember dropping calls all the time when i had them as my cell company.


              lol, you think Canada because I had a Preds avatar? There are a few Americans who like hockey, not many though.

                Didn't know who the avatar was. Thought it was CFL team lol. Guess Cricket is like MetroPCS around Dallas.

                    This is def non sports gaming.

                    Cricket isn't much of a sport.

                      I can't believe it's STILL in the Non-Sports forum.

                          I had a Cricket when I was 16, and like one poster said it drops calls a lot. It's a good phone if you want to cut cost, and don't feel like going through a credit check, but Verizon beats Cricket down big time IMO.

                            They have gotten Better atleast here in PGH. My Sister had it up until about 2 Months ago and everytime I talked to her it was fine.. When we would discuss services and what was good/bad. Only negative she said was already said earlier, Once you get around 50 Miles outside City your service suffers greatly. But they seem to have fixed thier dropped call issues from the past.
