If you're currently using a phone on TF, your can activate phone #1 WITH A TRANFER from your current phone to have your current phone number, days, units transferred to phone #1, then the bundled 1-yr and units for phone #1 get added on top. Then activate phone #2 with a transfer from phone #1. After that, if you prefer to use your current phone, re-activate your current phone with a transfer from phone #2. Smart existing TF users do that all the time to "harvest" cheap service days and units from those HSN/QVC bundles.
The service plan is 1500 text, 1500 minutes, 1.5gb data -- for the *entire year*. Not per month. That's about 4 minutes of talk time per day.
It's an extremely minimal and restrictive cellular plan, one that you could even call insultingly low - especially if you're used to cellular plans in modernized nations (aka, ones outside the the USA). It's not for everyone, and make sure it fits your use case.

Which Browser you used for transfer?
I'd prefer website, but it looks like website is simply not maintained: people say balance check not working for a month, chat is broken (besides a few minutes).
Trying to avoid a hassle with service transfer.
Thanks
I have an inactive Tracfone on my account (and many other tracfones collecting dust) that I would like to give away. But wondering if they will not activate for people that I give them to if they are still associated with my account.
"Keep Your Own Phone
Unlocked phones you're bringing to Tracfone."
correct?
Again for context: I'm doing service transfer from TF phone/SIM 1-year plan to 3rd party NON-tracfone phone/BYOD SIM.
Just follow website instructions & enter requested info, it's pretty simple.
We should also note you can get the deal for $50 if you're a new customer to QVC.
Meanwhile, this guy is talking about Xfinity home service, which gives you access to wifi hotspots all over the country. It's also not a handout. It's a service. And he talks about this tracfone plan, which he also pays for.
What a crazy post.

Phones will never unlock if you don't activate - and since phones come with service you might as well use it. There are plenty of choices available for less if you just want a wifi device.

Read above that it takes 60 days to unlock. Can I just cancel after say 90 days?

Might be helpful to read up on how TF works before buying.
Txts DO WORK OK in my case. No data is deducted.
I think MMS also work but you need to turn it on in the settings of the phone...if I remember correctly. Hope this helps you decide.
Is it a SIM card date?
TIA

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank zorx
Anyone knows otherwise?
I lost 12000 points back in 2021 because I did not extend the service after 1 year and did not know about this plus later on they showed that account as does not exist.
BUT when I tried to get referal points for new line in 2024 and using that same email everything miracurasly
showed up again so that they would not give me referal points since now AGAIN I became an old customer for their ill purposes. So any used email is retained, don't reuse it for rewards referal points!!!
