Last time I need to open the 7th chat to get the job done. Today is my lucky day, the 4th agent can do it for me.
https://i.imgur.com/xZLiVNp.jpg added 2yrs 2400 2400 2.4gb to my 1500 1500 1.5gb phone that was about to time expire.
so i now have 3 years of 4gLTE service, 2021 model phone, all the prepaid i could possibly need, and my net grand total cost = $90

I was going the angle of trying to get rewards for a better line, but might go your direction instead.
day 1: in a browser while your old phone is on, us a pc browser to tracfone.com/home/activation, choose "new phone", i want to keep my number, it will ask for your old number which should be in a dropdown selection if you logged into the site, it will want to send an sms text to your old phone, put the confirmation number in the pc browser you get from that sms text. next it will ask for the IMEI from the sim on the first flip phone (they print them out on a paper strip for you, so you don't have to look at the sim itself), if that IMEI is valid, keep confirming (it may need a moment to spin think so don't rush or reload the page), till it says it's done, now turn on the first flip phone with that IMEI you just specified. follow prompts on the phone (don't bother setting up wifi, you won't need it unless you plan to actually use that phone) and after a few minutes it will auto confirm as your new phone with that old number, wait a few more minutes and when you check your paygo balance all the numbers (on the website or via 611611 text on the phone) should have accumulated, so more days min sms gb on that old number. your old phone will only work over wifi, no cell service at all. your flip phone will work as your old phone number for min sms gb but you won't want to use it because these flip are a pita to use... i don't know how old people do it.
day2; do all the same, but now between your first new flip phone and the second new one
day 3: do all the same, but now between your second new flip phone and your old phone. (and yes, i know treating your old phone like a "new phone" is counter intuitive, but trust me, that's how they do it).
once that's all done, you'll see old phone totals plus first flip plus second flip, now all working and hosted back on your original old phone. on your account page you'll see your "active" old number phone details, and then two "inactive" IMEI numbers. i would set a timer for 2 months, then you can unlock the two flip phones and donate them to a women's shelter. good luck
in addition, don't forget to remove the now 2 "inactive" IMEI from your tracfone account
use the (···) menu top right of each "inactive" in their phone app - NOT on the website.
if you plan to donate these to a shelter, they may not be able to use them unless you
remove their IMEI from your active account. you can take the sims out, but do NOT
remove or obscure the IMEI sticker inside the phone back - new users will need that.
while both flips may have IMEI that you can confirm are tracfone unlocked

you will still be limited to Verizon's list of MVNO, also some MVNO support
multiple Cell ISP but you may need their Verizon specific sim card to do it.

Others said they arrived unlocked, so you may not have to wait
60 days to donate them.
i did in fact check, and both flips report
Great news! Your phone is already Unlocked.
if you're planning on giving your phones away
don't forget to go in the tracfone app and then
removing your flip phone's "inactive" IMEI.
