Cricket does charge a cancellation fee, but the amount varies depending on your situation. If you cancel within 14 days of signing up for service, you'll be charged a $25 early termination fee. If you cancel after 14 days but before your first billing cycle is complete, you'll be charged a prorated early termination fee based on how many days into your billing cycle you are. And if you cancel after your first billing cycle is complete, you'll be charged an additional $15 per month for each remaining month on your contract.
