The other "difference" is that a MobileShare plan offers Mobile Hotspot Tethering, where Cricket says it does not. That was one of my observations since Cricket says "LTE Data Speeds up to 8mbps" and while I haven't run SpeedTest in a long while because it immediately eats up like 50 or 100mb of data in running its test, I recall the AT&T network giving speeds of 15-20mbps when I first checked a couple years ago. I'm sure AT&T is a bit cautious that they don't want the floodgates to open and have every AT&T customer defect to the sister company. I am trying to determine whether I'm missing anything, and of course neither Cricket nor AT&T can tell me about the other or cross sell against them. My wife might go over 500mb once or twice a year.Ĭricket is OWNED BY AT&T and uses the GSM/LTE network. You can pay $10 to get another gig of LTE data if you needed it, but I will never hit 2.5GB. Cricket has no data limits, but the data I mentioned here is for "LTE Data" after which they throttle you back to 2G (128kbps!!!) data.
So I am trying to figure out if there are any catches?ĪT&T: 2GB per month (shared between my two phones), unlimited calling etc, will be around $95 per month INCLUDING my 20% FAN discount.Ĭricket: I can get a 500mb plan for my wife and a 2.5GB plan for myself, and the total including all taxes is $80 per month. And now I just noticed that Cricket Wireless is owned by AT&T and it appears I can get a better plan for less money. I was about to drop my current FamilyShare plan to save money on a MobileShare Value plan on AT&T.
