I already have a trac phone, with minutes stored up. Will I have any trouble getting those minutes moved to this phone?

probably my experiences always involve lengthy phone calls because they want to short my minutes last time they wanted to give me 800 minutes when i had 2600 after 2 days and a lot of frustration i found someone who knew their job and fixed the problem. i'm looking to upgrade my phone but am fearful of going through that again.

No trouble for me. I went to the tracfone website to activate the new phone, and one of the choices was to transfer service from an existing tracfone. I had over 1400 minutes on the old phone, but they capped the transfer at 1100 minutes. All airtime days transferred. In addition, they stacked an extra 20 minutes and 60 days onto the transferred minutes, as a new activation. I had to enter a lot of numbers, felt like six 21-digit numbers, from the website onto the new phone, but did it slowly and checked my work before hitting OK, and it transferred fine.

Yes, most definitely. This phone comes with "Triple Minutes for Life." You can purchase Minute cards and/or Time cards anywhere TracFone cards are sold or directly loaded to your phone from the TracFone website. I hope you find this helpful.

I called customer service and they helped me port my number. Or you go yo Tracfone.com and follow their suggestions. Phone line customer service can be frustrating, but it's with working through. They may give you a temporary number, but they will port you desired phone number in 3 business days, usually.

Only if it is sold pre-programmed as a Net10 phone. Tracfone version almost certainly will not work as a Net10 phone. I think the Tracfone one I had came with double minutes, so it wasn't expensive to use. In any case, it will be on the Verizon network which is superior in more out of the way areas.

You buy minutes as you need them and no monthly plan is needed unless you want one. You can buy as little as $10 at a time or more if you want to. As far as minutes go, it works pretty much the same way as any other Tracfone except that the talk, text and data minutes are deducted separately. So if you text, the minutes will come off your text minutes only. Triple minutes on this phone makes a big difference.

Yes. You can also transfer your number if you want to and your current minutes will be tripled.

I do not know what "trac phone" is, but I know the phone is unlocked. Bear in mind it is a BASIC phone.

If you mean transfer from one phone to another, yes. Everything in your account gets transferred. Any time you add minutes, it automatically gives you the balance of all three. If you transfer your number to a new phone, all your minutes, text and data go with it. Hope that helps.

In the package it will have a phone number (& website) for Tracfone you can call that number to buy some minutes and begin your service. In case you're wondering how the Tracfone service works, usually you buy minutes (20-200) and it will give your phone a certain amount of service time (several months - a year). If you want an active phone but don't want to buy anymore minutes they have a maintenance option (which I don't remember the name). Basically it will keep your working for a monthly fee.If you already have a Tracfone you can move your unused minutes over to your new Tracfone.

Yes, the minutes roll over as do the days. I have purchased the year card when i saw a good deal and it was before my year and minutes were up from the last purchase. And both rolled over, soi have gobs of minutes and days. And remember that texts on the Tracfone are 3 texts a minute of your talking time which is great.

Yes, the minutes expire at some future time depending on what quantity and time you purchase. Go to their site and you can see the different choices:https://www.tracfone.com/direct/Purchase?app=TRACFONE〈=en&fromPopup;=yes&payGo;=true&promoId;=48334&cardType;=TSAPP4001Y

Yes. If you have WiFi in your home you will not lose minutes on your tracfone. Double check by checking your minutes. Then try using your phone with your WiFi for a couple minutes. Then go back and check your minutes. You should have the same balance.

You can transfer minutes if you transfer the phone number only. The minutes go with the number.

Yes. It might result in a short lapse while Tracfone handles the changeover for you.

Using trac phone i am deducted .30 mins per 1 single page text. Many service providers out there, all have different charges. For my needs trac phone works. My phone gives triple mins on any card i buy, and that works for me. $20 200 x 3 600 mins lasts a while, can't beat it. John
