Avoid Cricket at all co$t$

A while back I made what's called a bridge payment to Cricket. It's a partial payment that keeps service on until the rest can be paid. I gave them the rest of the amount plus $8 a day early. Then I got a message that if I didn't get them almost another $25 they would shut it off at midnight. I went over and showed them the messages thanking me for the money. They tried to tell me that I had already made 3 bridge payments (no, 1) and that 3 was the limit. The person I had paid even denied that I had paid her. I finally ended up shelling out the extra, but I have just about had it with these idiots. I may file a lawsuit. How they think they can get away with this crap is beyond me.
 
Tell me, which of the big three or which of the MVNOs really care about their customers? Why is Cricket any worse than the others?
 
I dunno, Steven, we've been very happy with Patriot Mobile as our MVNO - we kept our numbers, are still on Verizon network but our bill cut in half. Plus the company shares our values.

I agree. Patriot shares my values, too, BUT I don't get Verizon coverage well here. US Mobile gives me a choice of ATT, Verizon or TMO networks at less than half the price with truly unlimited data. I need the truly unlimited because when power and internet go out, I can still do my virtual meeting via cell service. Otherwise, I'm right with you, m'brother.
