Honestly wondering why I don't find a new provider.

Honestly, the reason I joined cricket was because I needed a new phone and they offered a free one if I switched from my old provider. The service is choppy at best, the cost is pretty high, and I have had nothing but issues making payments. I have issues with autopay because every time I try to set it up “There is a problem with the server right now, try again later.” When I try to make a manual payment, it says my card info is incorrect which is false. I’ll enter it in around 8 times and it won’t go through. Chat support is a joke and only tells you to call 611 anyway so just avoid using that option. I called 611 about my payments issues and they basically said “sorry, we can’t help you. call your bank.” So that was another 30 minutes of hold time that I sat through for nothing.

 

I will be looking at other options for phones. This is just absolutely ridiculous.

@Marlena_Cricket I reached out to cricket support on twitter and was told to try a new card. I don't have another card. They informed me that sometimes the card just doesn't work. Which is ridiculous considering a family member of mine using the same bank, same card and her autopay works just fine. Not to mention I was signed up for the most expensive plan even after saying I didn't want that one and was charged $68 and didn't realize until after the fact that I wasn't on the plan I had signed up for.
