Just activate new phone on tracfone.com, and say you want to use existing number. It will transfer current minutes over. Be aware you Will need to have current phone on hand to get verification number

You cannot swap sim. I just stack it on my phone. I do a more convoluted way to maximize the returns but it takes about 2+ months to maximize the benefits. Say my main line is A. I buy this new phone B. I activate B using referral from A. For max benefit, I use a disposable email account for B. A gets 3K rewards (worth 3GB data after 2 months), B gets 2.5 K rewards ( 2GB worth). Wait 2 months - redeem all the rewards, unlock the phone B. Then remove B from the disposable email account and add it to the A account. Then chat with CR to merge B to A. At the end, I get about 6 GB data thru rewards + everything else stacked up !!

Sell phone B, which is unlocked, on FB....now that is gravy !!

Have people been able to apply the new customer promos more than once per household? I think HSN and QVC have both been canceling orders using these codes when the household has used it before.

It's unbearable to use. I bought 2 in the last 8 months to harvest the minutes . I wouldn't recommend to use this as a daily phone.
Probably because of the Mediatek processor.

Same happened to me too. After seeing $49.99 after submitting the order, I called the customer service at 1-800-933-2887 and they applied the discount. Initially on the call the rep said the discount doesn't apply to this item but when said that lot of other customers were able to apply the discount, then she applied.

Can I delay activate the 1500 Min/Text/Data when I get the phone? For how long if anyone knows?
I've waited more than a year in recent years on at least a few phones. Of course, if something goes wrong, you're out the purchase price, and policies can change (read the phone info at purchase to be sure there isn't a time limit, but I haven't seen that so far on HSN tracfones with minutes). But $30 isn't a huge loss.

If you try to activate within a couple of months and there's a problem, you may be able to dispute the purchase with some credit cards (because the full service you purchased (namely the minutes & time) wasn't delivered), if HSN/Tracfone says too much time has passed and won't make things right.

Everyone should be sure to get a screenshot of the $20 discount being applied, before finalizing the purchase. That would show HSN was doing a bait & switch (if the final price is changed), which is illegal

Ask people you know - someone probably has an old phone sitting around they could give you for use with wifi only. They could reset the phone back to factory settings to wipe out any info they may have on the phone.

Quote from lolopolo :
So, am I right that with this Tracfone plan you're getting 1 year of service (1500 of everything monthly(?)) and a phone that automagically unlocks after 60 days? If so, seems like insane value for $30. What's the catch?
Its 1500 Mins, 1500 Texts and 1.5GB. Time to use these amounts is 1 year, but if you simply purchase more minutes & time, that time (and minutes) get added to your account.

Or, for people who don't use the phone much, you can purchase a 1 year extension of the time on Tracfone. This option only shows up if you put something else in your shopping cart (you can buy 1000 texts for something like $5) or 30 days/30 minutes for something 9.99 - then when you go to check out, the option to buy the time-only 1 year extension shows up. At this point, you may be able to cancel the thing you put in your shopping basket and buy the 1 year extension (I've done that successfully, but not for about a year, so you just have to try it and see).

Once unlocked, can my uncle use this as his primary phone if he lives in Canada? Any missing cellular bands?
Read the info on the HSN site about the phone.
I know on some phones, I've seen it stated that you can only originate calls from the US.

Quote from bleech2 :
If I activate this phone using an existing line that uses a tracfone VZW BYOP sim, can I transfer the service back to the same BYOP sim after the service date extension is confirmed?
I do this a lot. I buy the flip phones from Tracfone on ebay. They are only 1200/1200/1200 but I buy them mostly for the service time. I activate the flip, keeping my number. Then when I see my balance has increased, I go into my deactivated phones and activate the phone I just deactivated, keeping my number. It takes less than 5 minutes. Of course the phone you harvested the service from won't get unlocked.

It's only 32GB, that really sucks!

I mean it's a good price for the service, but the phone is going to be awful.

Not sure if I should get it for an extra phone.
