Cricket Wireless increased data for it's $40 plan at no cost

Yesterday morning, Cricket announced that it will add more data to their $40 plan without a price hike. Starting on customers’ next billing cycle, their $40 plan will include 4GB of data instead of 3GB. Hey, thanks, Cricket! 

Of course, the data speeds on Cricket are still throttled to 8Mbps down at all times. I hate to have to mention that in every Cricket post, but I want to make sure you all know. Their prices are some of the best, just know that they do carry that one big asterisk.

Again, the new plans go live shortly and will hit your account at the beginning of your next billing cycle. As another reminder, be sure to sign-up for autopay and you’ll save $5 per month.
