Cricket Communications said its coverage footprint is expanding to new markets, including Atlanta, Cleveland, Dallas, Detroit, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Los Angeles, Miami, Orlando, Sacramento and San Francisco.
The extra coverage is available now and is free in $50 and $60 service plans from Cricket, which is a division of Leap Wireless International.
