Do minutes purchased have to be used within a defined time period?

Only if you buy the roll over or carry over minutes...you must look for this when buying a reload card. Once you buy a monthly plan, it will cancel you pout on the roll over, from my understanding....We usually purchase a 60 day plan. We use our phone very little, so we always have minutes left over once our 60 days is up.

I have gotten this phone from Safelink, but from what I can understand is that most likely not...I think if you purchase minutes through tracfone, I think that you don't have time constraints on using minutes

Yes. I believe they must be used within 30-days. I gave up the phone because I was losing minutes/money. There are so many companies now with no contracts and very reasonable plans.

No,you do not have to use all of your minutes within a time frame. They carry over month to month, But!, your phone activation has to be renewed monthly. This is done by buying minutes every month. I personally only use my phone in my car for safety,therefore I accumulate minutes for emergency situations. Should your actlvation expire, don't worry, just purchase as few or as many minutes as you choose and download them to your phone.

You have to buy minutes when they run out or when your time runs out. For example: I always buy the card that loads 400 minutes (which triples to 1200) card with 365 days of service. It's the best deal. Before one of those runs out you have to reload. I don't use my phone excessively so that card lasts me the full year before I have to reload. Hope this helps.Deb

You can purchase up to 30 days after you purchase a new item. I believe the time varies if you purchased a refurbished or used item.

You purchase minutes and use as many as you want at any time. When you run out, you purchase more minutes.

you can go to t mobile support and ask them. but so long as it is not a phone where you have to buy minutes in advance, it should work

I think so. It has been less than the year I signed up for, but I believe any unused minutes do carry forward. I just have to add time/service once the initial 365 days of service expire.

Did you just buy it? You have to let it be for 48 hours so it can unfold itself & fill out :) hope this helps!

as long as it's within 30 days of your purchase but you can call the 1 800 number and ask to be sure hope this helps

You need to use the airtime card included with your purchase + receipt. It has a numerical pin code on the back that you add to your tf balance. You then make sure that the extra minutes have been added to your balance by tracfone.

It all depends on which package you purchase. Some come with minutes, while others don't.

The rate on my account is ten cents a minute so $25 would get me 250 minutes. But different amounts expire in different periods. $100 won't expire for a year. $10 will expire in a month. But adding more money before the remaining amount expires brings it all forward without any loss of unused credit. I started with $10 but did not use all of it in a month and it was about to expire, so I added more and all the remaining credit was brought forward.

You get "Double" minutes regardless of how much airtime you purchase so you would probably want to go with a "60 minute" card.

It depends. Sometimes they will be bundled with free minutes. Sometimes there are minutes if you buy on Tracfone's website but not if you buy it elsewhere. It's been too long since I bought it for me to remember what deals may have been in effect (if any).

You can look it up but you will have to do it manually. I do it all the time to see what was bought on certain days.

If I buy 90 day plan and the minutes, data, text is not used in 90 days, does it roll over or is it lost?

I only use 1 at a time for each unit I have. But the quantity should provide your with a longer duration to repurchase...N were you really asking the question for an answer or just making a statement?

I think the question is whether you have to purchase the minutes either by phone or at the website to get the double minutes. The answer to this question is no. You can use a Tracfone card purchased anywhere, or even a PIN sent to your email by a reputable online seller. Your minutes will automatically double.
