Quote from AquaGalley8616 :
I didn't even know what the rumors were in this thread, until someone brought is up in this thread. I then did research last 30 day on the topic and it is active. The FCC made conditions for the purchase of tracfone to Verizon , and Verizon will finally have control of tracfone on Nov 2024. And as we come to that date, more will be revealed. FCC was probably worried Verizon would gut tracfone with all the sister companies so they made provisions to finalise it in Nov 2024, and protect current tracfone users the last 2-3 years. I do believe Verizon's big plan is to shut down the cheap plan companies so they can raise rates. We will see. But if you are going to buy tracfone stuff now in jan 2024, just be aware of the situation.


Currently Verizon has 168 Billion market cap. so 7 billion for tracfone is a drop in the bucket, if it did gut Tracfone! To gain more Verizon accounts. The Big 3 : Verizon, AT T, t-mobile.
Do you have any links supporting all these wild predictions, or are you just making it up?

Verizon already owns Tracfone but agreed not to shut down services like Net10 and Simple Wireless until this November. Whether they do, nobody knows.

Let me understand your logic: Only someone who is broke would buy this phone? Some of the wealthiest people I know are people that know a bargain and would rather save their money for more important things than a phone. That is how they got wealthy in the first place ! I keep a Tracphone as a backup phone and let me tell you it gets used in our house quite often to find our misplaced phones ! It was a lifesaver for me in the most recent Coke Happy Hour contest because evidently my main phone was too out of date to be able to download the new Coke app.
Well said,
Sadly, I've seen many people, destitute ones using expensive I phone and etc. This probably make them feel good, booster for self esteem. I don't see anything useful out of phone thing, only thing smart of these garbage is the manufacturer tricking naive people to spend tons of money in useless and worthless toys. We're living in a material world, that makes them feel like they belong in a human race, and companies like Apple or Samsung knows how to exploit destitute group.

... instead of providing links to you, do your own research the last 30 days on this topic. You were the one that wrote why would Verizon spend 7 billion on Tracfone and gut the company. Well, if Verizon has a Market cap of 165 Billion market cap currently, 7 billion is just a drop in the bucket. Why didn't you research what Verizon Market cap was. Makes sense to me, because that is what I would do, buy the company and get millions of people to be in Verizon network, and then gut it! FCC probably thought the same thing, so it put conditions on sale. Gave tracfone users 2-3 years before Nov 2024. Smilie

I will give you market cap link so you see how much Verizon has.


Verizon has a market cap or net worth of $165.35 billion as of January 19, 2024. Its market cap has decreased by -4.40% in one year.

Why don't you give links to what you are saying. Smilie

Quote from IndigoGuide724 :
Do I need to use new credit card with new account to get promotion to work?
Yes, new email & credit card both, as I just confirmed.

Thanks OP for this deal, I like the $1 donation too to make it easy and for a worthy cause, who knows how much of it QVC keeps and actually donates...

I looked into the diff between A14 5G for $20 more, and decided to get the A13 5G, just worse front facing camera, lower resolution (not blurry, maybe more pixelated, for those discerning), slightly more compact form, but also more battery runtime vs the A14 5G.

As for the MediaTek chip, it's based on similar ARM reference design as Snapdragons, but w slightly less performance that most people will not notice. At ~$34 shipped w 1 yr service added, is a great deal. People need to understand there will be trade-offs for deals like this, you can't always have your cake and eat it too. Brand loyalty is the core cause of inflation and corporations know this, it's how they can keep raising prices, knowing there's lock-in from consumers. But if one were more flexible about shopping & knows what the real value of a product vs marketing fluff, the consumer will come out ahead, and your pocketbook will thank you.

Wouldn't it be $30 more since price is $90 and coupon brings it down to $60?
Yes, $30 more.
I decided to go with the A14; with taxes and coupon, ~$66.

With the new customer discount it is a great deal, last time they cancelled my order though, I think it was because I was using the new customer discount and I have ordered with them before. Lets see if it works now

.... Mitch! Go to Net 10 website, it will direct you to another tracfone sister company! I did, and talked to rep in chat. What research have you done? Net 10 is GONE! Smilie
... I did research, maybe help us out, and actually research this. Smilie

We are only in Jan 2024 and Nov 2024 is about 10 months away, so I am sure it will be interesting ride. Smilie

No, people are wealthy because they have generational wealth given to them -- or they actively exploit others with "hard work pays off!" nonsense.
Class warfare nonsense, just like "tax the rich" crap.
Close the loopholes that their buddies in Congress gave them . . .


"In fact, only one-third of families succeed in maintaining their wealth into the next generation. And get this: 9 out 10 wealthy families lose all their wealth by the third generation.1 That is nuts. This happens for a lot of reasons"

For $100-200, gets you a unlimited text/calling,24gb data for 1yr plus Google Pixel 6a with tracfone

These very low end are very frustrating to use for adults, kids, senior. The Moto G, N30, Pixal 6a are better value and usable for much longer.

how about those of us that only want to spend around $30 though and don't care about unlimited or 24 gb of data or feel the need for a Google Pixel 6a?...for us "low end" guys this is plenty fine for me..in for 1 thnx op

Just FYI, the $1 cancer & careers donation (item # S9668) will also be reduced by the discount code. After looking at my receipt, the donation is now $.51 due to the discount code I used on the transaction.

Your comment suggests someone of an extremely jealous nature and one that is too depressing for me to continue to have an adult chat with. I'm going to go ahead and put you on ignore.
