How Do I Cancel My Cricket Wireless Service?

Cricket Wireless is a prepaid carrier in the United States. It offers text, data, and voice services. The carrier offers its services to over 4.6 million subscribers in the United States. You can cancel your Cricket Wireless service if you no longer need it.

Canceling Your Cricket Wireless Service

With an Instalment Agreement

If you have an installment agreement, the unpaid installment balance is due whenever you cancel the line that is associated with your agreement.

Without an installment agreement, you must pay an Early Termination Fee if you wish to cancel before your service commitment period ends.

What if You Activated Your Device in the Last 14 Days?

If you placed your order online, you don't need to incur the cost of restocking charges for returns. If you already picked up your online order in-store, visit a company-owned retail store and have the restocking fee waived.

When you are certain about your decision to cancel service or remove a line, you can contact Cricket Wireless and ask for help.

Suspending Your Cricket Wireless Service
