Isnt tracfone 1200 min for the entire year? This is 200 min per month. The data is less on this deal, but the minutes/texts are way more.

It can be advantageous to have 3GB data anytime you want though (instead of getting stuck at 200MB every month).. especially if you use this only a few days of the year.

Well the honey moon is over with RP. D I V O R C E

Used to be OK-ish for the $60 yr plan for low use and practically no data. Any more and you will live to regret it.

'Oh what a deal' soon turns sour real fast; once you have any kind of a problem. And now they are causing many problems to have to call them. The help is a hit and miss nightmare. You have to call an average of two, insane answer machine, LONG hold times and longer as they put you on hold. Why because there systems are SLOW. It's a minimum of 35 minutes to hours to get any one thing done.

RP DOES NOT carry themselves well. You CAN NOT depend on what they tell you. On your first call it's one thing. The next call it's another reason and the third yet another reason why things are not working. Clueless reps. Unprofessional. Poor English. and/or poor connection.

What goes wrong. Failure to transition month to month. Failure to fall over to the LIMITED "Unlimited" SLOW speed that's on some plans. Plus they are known for cutting off customers on the insanely slow speed altogether. Whereas other providers promise they will never cut you off. With Red Pocket you will be lucky if it works with your high speed data.

We have had many phones with RP including GSM and CDMAV and they are both failing reliability.

Frankly RP must be being bought out and don't care anymore. BEware.

TF is worse.

All that and more. Yes, Tracfone IS worse. They sold me an empty sim and numerous CS people said there is nothing they could do. You know you are in trouble when you hear a rooster - yes, a rooster - crowing in the background during the call!

Had a WiFi calling issue they worked on for months and never fixed. Had me try my sim in another unlocked iPhone at least 5 times. Just kept saying the same script each time I called and had no idea what had been tried before. Kept sending surveys like they had fixed the problem. Just one of the issues. Sometimes VM even works. It's cheap, if it works for you.

This plan is on the T-Mobile/Sprint network. If you want the AT&T network you have to get the $60 annual plan

They don't even offer sprint anymore on ebay. Sprint is pretty much done now. On ebay, red pocket plans offer GSMA (at&t), GSMT (t-mobile) and CDMA (Verizon HD Voice).

I have been with red pocket for like 7 years and never had big issues with the reception and customer service. No issues with the data speed as I'm on the 1GB data per month plan. I have never been on the expensive unlimited plan so I can't comment about unlimited slow speed. The one time I had to contact customer support (3 weeks ago) because the rollover didn't go correctly, the customer agent on chat quickly fixed the problem. Do chat. I hit chat and then just browse on the internet and YouTube as the minute countdown goes down. Don't call and wait without knowing when the agent is available. Nothing really compares to redpocket with reception, value and customer service. Name me another service that has better bang for the buck? Who is putting out $30 yearly plans with 1000 text, 200 mins and 200mb data? Any other $30 yearly plans you can name?

The RedPocket ebay store has a 98.1% positive rating out of nearly 23k reviews so I am not the only happy customer. I recommended to a couple people as well who were paying a ton every month and they are very happy as well. They didn't even believe the price was legit and possible because the high prices that they were paying.
