Cricket Launches Muve Music Unlimited Wireless Rate Plan in New Markets













I used Cricket for a while, it wasn’t bad, but I couldn’t get any calls in my home so it had to go. I’m on AT&T now and I’m happy there for now.

Cricket Communications Inc., a leading provider of innovative and value-driven wireless services and a wholly owned subsidiary of Leap Wireless International, Inc. (NASDAQ: LEAP), today announced the availability of Muve Music in new Cricket markets across the nation. Beginning tomorrow April 1, Muve Music will be available in Colorado Springs, Ft.
