these cheap phones are great to keep at in the car, at work, or in your bag just in case for emergencies. just remember to at least use them about once a month to keep them active else they could go inactive and then game over.

Yes. If you wait 60 days before transferring the minutes/airtime and haven't added 4+ lines to your account already, you'll also get 10k points per line. 20k points is worth much more than 120 (60*2) days of airtime, so that's usually the way to go (plus then you can unlock the phones and make them more useful as a donation if you just care about the airtime.)

This is essentially 20k points (2x Add-a-Line bonuses) on Tracfone for $30, 20k points gets you a $300 off coupon. That gets you multiple refurbished iPhone XRs you can trade in for a Pixel 7 or for Apple GC credit.

if you are brand new to tracfone dont forget to use a referral code for 5,000 points. then if you want to activate the other phone just add it to your account and get another 10,000 points. google "tracfone referral"

Change your current line to VZW and them merge with a bundle. If you're using a Tracfone phone, not BOYD, then Tracfone should've offered you a free VZW phone. Yes VZW is CDMA.

No, VZW will terminate your account.

So the best idea is to activate 2 of these phones with separate number then merge it into one of the main numbers and you have approx 1200 or 2400 minutes per line added to your main line(s)? It's still easy to set up new phone lines and then transfer cancel and transfer to main phone lines?

I don't think this is true. At least it doesn't happen to the 3 phone # that I am using.

Tracfone is lately not giving points on referrals means when you sign up using a referral code you get 5000 points but the person ho referred you gets nothing plus they're not honoring 10k pointe on added lines as well.
I even order a free device last month that never arrived and it took me 10 calls to find out that it was cancelled because if low inventory. Placed second order its still pending after a week.
P.S Good luck with one of the worst customer services out there.

Could not agree more. I spent three hours with various agents for referral bonus and they are so dumb that they keep pointing me to my older redemptions several months ago when I ask about a referral this month. 2 years ago when I was getting started they were supposed to add 3000 minutes/text/data for my points redemption. But they only added1000. Spent multiple hours there too and I still didn't get the 3000. And recently when I wanted to merge my lines, I had to talk to 5 different agents before I got it done.

As new customer, I can only get 15k points, right? If I purchase another set from HSN, I can get another 20k points? Then I can use the points to buy an iphone?

Agree. I transferred the SIM a few months ago from the $20 tracfone eBay deal (from flip phone into iPhone) and haven't had any issues. Data/minutes transferred to iPhone.

As new customer, how many points can I get? I'm confused by the comments. 15k(5k for refer, 10k for adding 2nd line) or 25k( 5k for refer, 10k each for 1st and 2nd line)?
If new, 5k for line 1 w/ referral, 10k for line 2, 15k total.

If existing, 10k per additional line, until you reach the max 4 added lines (40k points).

Basically you only get 10k points per line if its an additional line to an existing account.
