Cricket Wireless Facebook

Cricket Wireless is an American wireless service provider, owned by AT&T . It provides wireless services to ten million subscribers in the United States. Cricket Wireless was founded in March 1999 by Leap Wireless International.

Atlanta-based Cricket Wireless announced today it broke the 9 million subscriber mark. The company was acquired by AT&T in 2014 and re-launched as the new Cricket with 4.5 million subscribers.

Cricket Wireless is committed to supporting the growth of mobile Internet and providing the best customer experience. As a result, Cricket plans to end service on 3G (UMTS) wireless networks by February 2022 . This will allow additional space on Cricket’s mobile Internet network.

If you’re not aware, Cricket is owned by Verizon’s main rival in the U.S. mobile industry, AT&T . Cricket users have prepaid mobile contracts which get them service on the AT&T network. However, Cricket caps its data speeds and prioritizes traffic for AT&T’s postpaid customers.
