If you already redeemed the year using the AT&T sim that's it, the others will be empty sims.
It's one year, not 3. The other sims are usable & will activate but won't have any time.
Thanks for the update. That explains why the date didn't update. I will go ahead and order a new $29.99 T-Mobile card.

I already bought an AT&T-compatible kit today for another phone, but now it's not letting me buy a T-Mobile kit from the same listing. Says limit 1.

I also found the below listing but it doesn't give a place to specify which carrier I want. Is this the one that has 3 cards for the 3 carriers? It's letting me add this to the cart:

Should be all 3 sims. They have a limit on how many you can buy within a certain amount of time.

You do not need to buy monthly cards - you just need to have 12 months of active service to unlock. It's up to you to decide how you pay for it, 60 day cards, yearly cards etc.

Hello,

I've read the entire thread but would like to be sure I have this understood...I have Tracfone and basically buy a new phone once a year. I get a bundle deal with 1 year service, and something like 1500 texts/calls/data (1 GB data or something), then I will buy 1000 texts for $5 and some data a few times a year. My year is almost up so instead of buying a new phone with the texts/data/service, I can buy this deal instead, right? I followed the link in the thread with the instructions on how to add this to an existing Tracfone...sounds like I will just have to replace the SIM card with the one I get from this deal.

Do I have this right? I'm just concerned b/c reading the reviews for this product shows some difficulty when activating and one person said not to do it if you are an existing Tracfone customer if you just want to extend your service (which is what I mainly want to do).

Thanks so much for any help and advice.
Okay, I'm following up...this is a nightmare! I did everything I was supposed to but it's not working. It says the SIM won't work b/c my phone is locked...I used Tracfone online chat. They told me to contact the place where I bought the phone and ask for it to be unlocked...ummm...I got it from HSN a year ago! All I've ever used is Tracfone.

I tried putting the old SIM card in but it's not working either. HELP!!!! What can I do?! Thank you.

ETA: I'd be happy if I could just get it to work with the old SIM, even if I'm out thirty bucks. But it won't work at all now. I'm really sick over this...if anyone can help, I would appreciate it so much.

Anyone's order ship yet? My order placed on the 13th for the T-Mobile compatible package hasn't.
Mine was shipped on the 13th, the day I ordered it. However, they didn't update the tracking info until this morning and it is scheduled to deliver tomorrow by UPS (says 2nd day air), not sure how they count days.

Okay, a follow up to the follow up...Well, I'll never do that again!!! It was an absolute nightmare but thankfully it worked out. The first online chat guy wasn't helpful at all. I was desperate so I tried the online chat again and the second guy was very helpful. He even told me that my phone was unlocked to Tracfone (or just wasn't locked...not sure, but whatever it was, it wasn't a problem). I was on the chat with him for over 30 minutes. He kept working on it...I was so nervous the whole time thinking it was taking so long that he'd come back and say the same thing the other guy did, but whatever he did, IT WORKED!!!! Plus I have the old SIM card in. Not sure if that matters or not...I think it will let me keep all my contacts and such without having to put them back or whatever.

Anyway, maybe I shouldn't be posting all this here...but I thought maybe I should mention it in case anyone is on the fence. It worked out for me in the end, but I wouldn't try it again.

Would buying and using this sim kit count towards the 12 month active service? I am planning to open a new account with this sim kit

Be careful. I just received them in the mail. They are at&t compatible. Not 3-in-one sim.

It is in the list description
