How to dump the phone and keep the plan (copied and edited from community wiki on this deal):
  • Purchase a BYOD Tracfone SIM card (two if transferring to two phones), available for $1 each almost anywhere. One vendor is Best Buy [bestbuy.com], but there are many others.
  • Write down the SIM number(s).
    • Make sure it is a BYOD sim, not a sim with pre-loaded minutes. Only a BYOD sim will work.
  • Purchase this a03 phone deal.
  • Activate the a03 phones using the instructions provided with the phones.
    • You may wait up to a year to activate a phone.
    • Your 1-year plan begins when you initially activate.
    • Unsure about this, but I think you need to activate both lines on the same Tracfone account to make combining the plans easier later.
    • You must initially activate using the provided a03 phone.
  • Insert BYOD Tracfone sim in BYOD phone.
    • BYOD phone must be capable of communication on the Verizon network, and must be either unlocked or locked to Tracfone.
  • Contact Tracfone to move number and service to new phone. You may do this multiple ways:
    • Online, at https://www.tracfone.com/activation/selectdevice while logged in with your Tracfone account.
    • Text to TRANSFER to 611611
    • Contact Tracfone support via online chat or phone. Tracfone support isn't the greatest, but they can do this.
  • Dispose of a03 phone as you see fit.
    • One community member has reported that you can return the phones to QVC, get your money back, and keep the service. However, that is very YMMV - it very well may have been a mistake on QVC/Tracfone's part.
    • The a03 phone won't have much trade in value, but may be usable with some other deals that provide "bonus" trade in value (I.E. $100-more-than-it's-worth deals)
    • Best Buy [bestbuy.com] offers free tech recycling. Better than throwing it out where the lithium will be wasted and become an environmental hazard.

I haven't tried this, but I believe you can combine both plans into a single phone for two years service. It would require a support call.
  • Activate both phones, with two different numbers, on the same Tracfone account, with the same instructions as above.
  • Transfer one plan to your BYOD phone, with the instructions above.
  • Contact Tracfone support via online chat.
  • Use this script, provided by someone on HowardForums, which I haven't verified: https://www.howardforums.com/thre...t-17241085

That should put both plans on the same phone, providing two years of service with 1500/1500/1.5GB per month. YMMV.

Your comment cannot be blank.

This deal came just a month too late but just in time all the same.
I had already bought a year of Tracfone for $110 for my Motorola.
Coincentally, its battery burst!! This is my second Tracfone Motorola from QVC/HSN to burst its battery within two years of use.

Thanks to the single-phone HSN version of this deal, I now have a better Samsung phone and an addition year to add to my one-year card.

Now I'm off to the e-waste recycler.

Finally someone admitting the truth about Moto. I don't wanna type it all again but I will never.

Thankfully this Samsung Tracfone is Verizon and, unlike one of my two Motorola Tracfones that are also Verizon, uses my official Verizon LTE Network Extender (femtocell) even though dialing "#48" says it does not. Win-win for my basement office.

Not surprising since all Tracfone bundled phones use Verizon.
Verizon bought the Tracfone brands over 2 years ago.

Yeah, well, only one of my two Motorola Tracfones actually used my Verizon LTE Extender and they are both on the Verizon network.

I'm surprised the FTC and FCC allowed Verizon to buy up all those prepaid providers, especially Tracfone.

Agree about the purchase, many users were not happy about it - only advantage was the change to the unlock policy (12 month requirement went down to 2 months). Made it easy to unlock/resell.

If you leave it plugged in for hours like overnight , then this is hard on the battery.

I have a couple of tracphone moto's and they have done fine for 4 years..

Same here, no issues at all - other than the poor Motorola update policy.

I have left my Samsung phones plugged in for hours overnight for over a decade and they never fail. That's not a problem with quality phones.

Same price for Moto G Play 2-Pack, which has a better review than A03 on qvc. Anyone with experience with Moto G Play?

I'm still using my 2021 G Play. Skipped the 2022 and 2023 because of the MediaTek SoC. But yeah, even so, I'd pick the G Play over the A03. (The new 2024 G Play brings back a SnapDragon SoC. )
