Tracfone recharge/extension options

1,640 577 September 26, 2021 at 07:59 AM TracFone
Hello,

I bought Tracfone Moto with 1 Yr with 1500 M/T/D plan last year as a backup phone.
Its about to complete 1 yr in 2 weeks. It still has lot of M/T/D left.
When i go refill, I see only plans like Monthly/90/1yr plans.

Recharge seems pricy when considering the service i bought last year. Also Does the recharge will clear all the existing M/T/D?

Is there a way to extend the service date for the plan and still use whatever left?

M/T/D - Minutes/Text/Data..

TIA

You should be able to add a 1yr/1500m/1500t/1.5gb plan for $125. Add promo code 37329 for $15off. This will extend your service and add to your existing balances. OR select the cheapest/shortest plan you can (or 1000 texts for $5), add that to your cart, then youll see "more for your device" whaere you can add a yr of service for $49.99 (this will extend your time but wont add any text/data/mins). Good luck!

What I do every year is just get a new phone. All your existing minutes/texts/data will roll over. I just recently purchased a Samsung A11 through HSN for $73.99($93.99-$20 code for first time buyer) which came with a years worth of service and 1500 min/texts/data and wireless earbuds. Shop around at HSN, QVC and the Tracfone store front on Ebay and you can find a good deal. Do a google search for tracfone reviewer and checkout that blog post for reviews and coupon codes. Also you might consider signing up for Tracfone reward program where you get points for renewing your service, getting a new phone or referring people. With the new phone I mentioned because I signed up for the points program I got 7000 points. Every 1000 points is worth $10 which you can use on service and new phones at the Tracfone website or app.

I bought this last year thru HSN deal for 50$.
i also registered for rewards points too but for activation they only gave 63 points only.
But Bonus they gave like 400 points.
If buying new phone, can that be used to existing account? Does this Add existing minutes/Text and Data? or Just 1500 M/T/D?

Also how does unlock phone works in case you switch to new phone?
I heard needs to be more than 1yr service to unlock.

Hi... when you get the new phone, does that mean you also have to change numbers?
