what does it cost to use text and picture messaging on cricket paygo?

Incoming messages are free for Cricket PAYGo customers. All Cricket PAYGo plans, except the $1 per day plan, include unlimited outgoing text and pix with payment of the access fee. With the $1 per day plan, each outbound message is just 10¢ per recipient (that means if you send a single message to five people, you’ll be charged for five messages, or 50¢), plus the daily access fee. If you’re on the $1 per day plan and send a lot of text messages, you may want to use *PAY to change to the $2 per day plan. For all daily plans, sending a message will trigger your daily access fee if it’s the first activity of the day.

When changing between plans, remember to dial *228 to complete the plan change. If you forget to dial *228 after your plan change, your roaming indicator may not function properly. All other features, functionality, and pricing will work correctly.
