How about copying the rest of MetroPCS features

What, like terrible coverage and slow speeds? Seriously, Cricket runs on ATT and MetroPCS runs on T-Mobile, so Cricket’s service is going to be leaps and bounds better than MetroPCS in most places.

Terrible slow speeds? Are you serious? Cricket is throttled to 8 Mbps! Not so much at Metro.

Not being throttled only matters if you actually have service. I can tell you for a fact that T-Mobile in the western U.S. has awful coverage. Cricket doesn’t throttle anymore, as far as I know.

Well I got service with metro and it beats cricket with ease.
Cricket $60 10GBs of high speed data
Metro $60 as much high speed data as you want, even 100 GBs lol.

You’d be lucky to get half that on metro.

Sure they throttle but 8 Mbps is more than enough to do just about everything, including watching HD video. Plus AT&T’s native coverage is far superior than T-Mo’s native coverage. Remember, both Metro and Cricket are prepaid plans so no roaming on other carriers is included, so you are highly dependent on native coverage, which as I stated AT&T is FAR superior.

Wow that’s a crazy deal!!! But not better than my 10 euro for unlimited text and calls in any network and 6Gb of data.

Here on Israel we pay 10 euro for unlimited text and calls and 10GB of data.

You can find the same here in Romania if you have some years in the same network.

Mine gf pays 6 Euro for unlimited data, but speed capped at 1Mb/s.
Myself pays 15 Euro for 20GB data with 4G/LTE speed (up to 80Mb/s depends on location). For unlimted text and calls need to pay another 15 Euro which I dont need.

Why pay for unlimted calls and text. When there are free apps that gives the same?

That’s quite the jump from 2.5GB to 8GB. Hopefully they give the lower tiers a little extra.

Metro PCS $60 for true unlimited 4g LTE
I usually get anywhere from 20-40 Mbps most of the time with my ZTE Max pro.
Match that cricket lol

Oh and I forgot to mention I used 70 GBs last month of 4g LTE. Match that cricket lol.
