While in chat:
1) confirm with the rep that the sim card you bought has the proper minutes/texts/data
2) confirm with the rep what your existing account has for minutes/texts/data
3) ask the rep to add your new sim card stats to your existing account
4) while still in chat, make sure that everything was added correctly (can take a few minutes to update) ask the rep for the totals so that it's on the transcript
5) get the chat transcript and save it
This way if there's any question at all, you have the transcript to prove what you should have.
tl;dr Always use chat

Can I buy one more and stack it on my current plan?
When activating the new sim, select to "transfer" your current plan. All the balance will carried over and the expiration date will be extended 1 year from your current expiration date.
If your current plan came with the locked phone, then note that activating a new sim may disqualify the 12-month service to unlock the phone.

If you have a Verizon SIM or a TracFone branded Verizon phone. DO NOT do it without further research. It can be done, but it is a giant hassle.
Quickest way is to click activate and when it asks you if you want to transfer a number put in your old number. At the end everything should be merged but you are screwed if something goes wrong.

Repped!!
Thanks for the help.
I'm guessing we'll be able to keep the phone number when transferring?
