Cricket Wireless Now Offering Lower Priced iPhone Packages
April 22, 2013
Cricket Wireless is trying to make some noise in the changing wireless industry. The prepaid carrier is revamping their no-contract plans to better compete with T-Mobile USA, and other carriers.
The Leap Wireless unit is now offering a family bundle that includes two smartphones for $40 per month. Individual plans begin at $50 per month. This includes unlimited calling and text messages, plus 1GB of full speed data. For $60, users receive 2.5 GB of data; for $70, the monthly data limit rises to 5GB.
Previous Cricket iPhone plans started at $55 per month.
In 2012, Cricket became the first company to offer an iPhone prepaid plan in the U.S. Boost Mobile soon followed later in the year.
This month, T-Mobile began offering the iPhone 5 without a contract.
