It is probably .69 cents a minute just like when you go over your minutes or roam with anyone else.

I heard that they use the other cell carriers' networks, so if its a real busy area you might not get a line even if you have a signal.
granted, this was a sales rep from Sprint so take it with a grain of salt.

Im just guessing....but if you couldnt get a line with cricket....you probly wouldnt get a line with the tower owner either...as long as the tower lets you "login" I would THINK that you have just as good a shot as anyone else.
The only person that I know has it is a friend in Ohio...she stays in her service area, and she seems to do ok with it.....recieving pic texts on her phone sometimes takes a couple of days...other times it's almost instant. How much of that is her phone/her not power cycling it...and how much of it is the network ???? I have no idea.
Hope that helps

i own two cell phone places in san antonio and the valley we sell cricket in the one stores in san antonio along with many other companies. as a sales person for cricket i should say they are great but they arent.
i have complaints from customers everyday about the service, droping calls, defective phones, and so forth. if i were you stick with what you have.
