I looked hard for a small Android phone, and finally decided I would go with the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. Then, after many on-line chats and phone calls with Verizon, I found out they could not support my phone. the phone is much better than their service, so I decided to find another provider. Cricket was it. They are a pay-as-you-go service provider owned by AT&T, so they use the same fast network. Transitioning from Verizon to Cricket was easy, even with keeping the same phone number. Plus, my bill is half the price for the same features. I only give 4 stars because I signal is weak or non-existent where I work, but that may be due to the University having a contract with Verizon. In other locations calls and data stream quickly.

I switched to Cricket wireless after many years with Verizon, I just got really tired of paying over $90 for their services, switched to Cricket for $45 a month with auto pay. That's unlimited talk, text and I get 8 gigs of data. It's a smoking deal!

We have switched our family from Virgin Mobile Wireless to Cricket Wireless because the Sprint tower near our home was down twice for over a 2 week time period each time and that just wasn't acceptable to us. So we looked and found Cricket. We have picked up 5 of these SIM kits and changed our phones to Cricket Wireless. We've now been with them for 4 months and have been very happy with the service we receive. It is costing us only $100 a month for all 5 phones to have unlimited calls, texts and 3g of data a month. Being on the AT&T network means we are getting reliable service. VERY highly recommend Cricket and it wasn't overly difficult to set up!

Cricket uses AT&T towers/network. SIM card works anywhere on AT&T coverage. CricketWireless 5-Lines family plan is $100; ~$20 per line, each line gets 2.5GB of 4G LTE data. My LTE speed is >3Mbps all the time. If T-Mobile is not for you and Verizon is too expensive for the coverage, then this is the SIM card you need.

I bought this for a teenager and put the SIM card in an old iPhone6 so that she would have a phone while her parents were out of town. It worked flawlessly and to my knowledge she has had no problems with reception. She is able to text, call, and the plan has a small data plan included (2 or 3gb?)
I can't give this 5 stars as I don't know if there have been any quirks or issues with it, but to my knowledge it was fine. Also... the phone I gave her was originally on my AT&T plan. I do not know what service providers this works with, but it was very easy to set up on an AT&T phone.

Cheap SIM card with good service, if att is good in your area. Cricket is an at&t company other than using its network only comparing to other prepaid company. $100/5 lines per month very good deal.

I upgraded my phone and wanted to get a nano sim for my iPhone 7. This was an easy buy. switching the sim and activating was a breeze. I however think charging close to $10 for this is a big high

I bought this sim card for my son, and add him as the fifth line of our family plan. It cost $40 per month with $40 credit each month, which comes with 3 GB data. It's a good one.
