Connection issues

I've been experiencing data issues on Google Pixel, so i went to the cricket store and and purchased a Motorola phone iny local store thinking that it was my phone that was the issue. However, after a few days it too has been just spinning to connect to do anything. I rely on my phone a great deal for work and college classes. I have a family plan with 5 lines! The only timr we have decent service lately is when we are able to use Wi-Fi!!  Is there a problem with connectivity in my area that we're unaware of, even though there is a cricket store locally based? If so, we might have to take our business elsewhere!
