Cricket brings its unlimited wireless service to St. Louis

Cricket’s awesome yet affordable unlimited, flat monthly fee offering is now available in St. Louis. No contract is required, nor credit check — Cricket found a great way to compete with the big boys!

Cricket rate plans range from $30 to $60 a month, and include unlimited anytime minutes, unlimited U.S. long distance, unlimited text and picture messaging, unlimited text to Mexico, unlimited Mobile Web, unlimited directory assistance, nationwide roaming minutes and more — all without requiring signed contracts or credit checks.

However, it’s the Cricket Wireless Internet Service we care about the most. The UTStarcom (NSDQ: UTSI) UM100C tri-band USB modem is available for $99 after rebates, and afterwards you pay only $35 or $40 per month, depending whether you also have a voice plan or not — a bargain when you compare it with the competition.

Finally, to celebrate its entrance into the St. Louis community, Cricket is hosting a variety of celebratory events throughout the month, including a volunteer day with Gateway Greening, free phone calls for Flag Day and Father’s Day, and in-store specials and events.
