Very good app

TryCricket is definitely one of my favorites a lot better than TextFree or TextNow and cricket is a well-known service phone service. I love it and it’s very accessible too.

Very UNPROFESSIONAL

This company has given me more stress and headaches since day one. I don’t know how but I was even left with one day (1) remaining of service with them to unlock my phone from them. How the f**l does this happen? One word for this company… ‘Karma’ remember it Kricket.

Perfect
