ATLANTA, Oct. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cricket
Wireless services can now be found in 122 military exchanges in
U.S. based military bases. This includes 83 Army & Air Force
Exchange Service (AAFES) stores, 14 Marine Corps Exchanges (MCX)
and 26 Navy Exchanges (NEXCOM).
Cricket Wireless is proud to bring military families:
- Simple, transparent plans with no annual
contract: Rate plan pricing starts at $30/month1 and includes monthly taxes
so there are no surprises. One less thing to worry about for
families on the move.
- Power of a nationwide 4G LTE Network: Cricket offers
more 4GLTE coverage than T-Mobile, Metro PCS, Sprint and
Boost2.
- Plans that include Mexico
and Canada: Unlimited calling,
text and messaging to and from, and in and between the U.S.,
Mexico and Canada included in plans $50/month and higher (minimum 50% U.S. usage
required).
Working with Wireless Advocates and the exchanges, military
shoppers can take home the Risio 2, CoolPad, HTC Desire 550,
Sol 2 or a bring-your-own-device
(BYOD) kit to activate their own compatible smartphones on
Cricket's network.
"Military members and families have enough on their plates.
We're here to make things easier with no annual contracts, flexible
plans and the latest devices and services," said Dave Fine, vice president of Sales and
Distribution, Cricket Wireless. "When they make their regular runs
to these exchanges, they can quickly find us."
"I've spent a lot of time in the Exchange over the years. First
as an Air Force brat and then as an Airman myself," said
Darin Morrow, vice president and
CIO, Cricket Wireless. "Prepaid wireless, particularly Cricket,
makes a lot of sense for military families. And now it's available
in the exchanges. We offer the kind of flexibility and reliability
that these families need all for a great price."
