Couldn't get the service to work. I received the SIM, "activated" through the app, but couldn't make calls. Tried calling support, but they wanted me to go to a physical location. At that point, I took it as a sign that the service wasn't for me.

Doesn't let me use the trial because it requires an existing cell phone number and says my number can't be ported...Doesn't give me the option to get a new number....

I downloaded the app and entered my iPhones IMEI which was compatible. I kept getting an error after inputting my information and could not get any kind of assistance. I tried contacting cricket and since I am not a current customer,the automated prompted me to go to an authorized retailer, so I did. The gentleman at the Cricket store was unable to provide any other information than his computer would not allow him access and to call customer care. Circles.
