1. To harvest the plan from the phone, you just go to tracfone.com/activate and follow the instruction, make sure to choose "activating new phone" and then "Keep my own number" and follow the procedure. After everything is done, make sure the transfer is completed and the plan is activated (check by texting balance to 611611, on the app and on the website) then move on to transfer the number back to your current phone (suggested to be done on the day after your first transfer).
Using the same method, go to tracfone activating website, this time choose "bring my device" (note: you can do it by buying a BYOD kit which costs $1 at Target and similar places or using eSim) and, again, follow the instruction.
*big notice: when transfer this unlimited plan to another unlocked phone, the plan may acts weirdly and not display correctly as Unlimited plan, that's when you need to contact customer support to ask them to fix it for you.

2. Probably: this phone < A53 < pixel 6A. It's full name is Blu View Speed so you can go look it up on Google.

3. The Unlimited Plans CANNOT stack. What happens when you activate another Unlimited Plan on top of the current one is the current plan will be terminated and the new plan will be activated immediately. However, you can still keep the data and service duration.
Example: You activate plan 1, then a month later, you activate plan 2 on top of plan 1. The total service duration (which does not guarantee call/text/data) will still be extended by 1 year, make it 2 years total BUT the plan duration is still 1 year, counting from when you activate the 2nd plan. The remaining data still carries over.

Some banks provide virtual credit card number. For example, citi provide virtual credit card for their master card.

How do you get around them noticing? They recognize my payment card/paypal as being used with another account. Unless you have dozens of CCs.

They will be put on hold and resumes when the Unlimited Plan end. However, I'm not sure about the way they calculate your remaining service duration, which you should chat with their agents to make sure.

BLU Phone has been often criticized for not delivering Android updates on their smartphones.

Hi If you want to unlock this phone in the deal and have an existing TracFone number and phone you want to transfer the plan too but not use the number on this phone can someone explain the best method(s) since TracFone has such poor customer service?

Also How does this phone compare to the A53 and the pixel 6a where it is 5g?

Last question if you get 2 of these is it possible to stack the 2 years worth of service and does the data carry over between years?

It's gone right now, but you can always use such query "cashback monitor qvc" on google and figure out which site provides the best cachback right now.

So how do you get an extra year of service with these plans if the data sticks to the account?

If I have a 1500/1500/1.5G plan on another line, can I "combine the buckets" with this one? I would activate it, wait 2 months, transfer the data to my old number (combine the buckets), unlock the phone and sell it. Would that work with this plan? I've always dealt with the other 1.5G plan.
