It takes some configuring, but I've had good experiences with using Google Family to manage my kids devices.
1. Go to the web to find the current minutes, messages, data, and days remaining on your permanent phone.
2. Activate your "donor" phone on the same account.
3. Go to the web to find the current minutes, messages, data, and days remaining on your new, donor phone.
4. Go to support.tracfone.com and scroll down to and click "Chat with Support".
5. Populate the message template below with details of your donor phone and permanent phone and share with the CSR.

currently has ### minutes, ### messages, #.# GB data, ### days left which I'd like added to my line which currently has ### minutes, #### messages, #.# GB data, ## days left.
My account email address is:
The end result should be minutes, messages, GB data, days left.

The other part - if you activate this by transferring your existing number on Tracfone itself - it extends validity. Not clear if your plan that's expiring in June is on a different provider.
Anyone know shipping times for items like this from QVC?

If you have existing service on a existing phone and want to add the 2 years of service, how do you do that ? I dont want to active the new phones and want to give them to family members at some point. Thanks in advance.

I use these for cameras at my corporate rentals. Guests can access cameras and see what is going on.WiFi only. I keep the SIM for my kids - or a burner phone.
I do want to unlock some of these I purchased in the past. Anyone know how?
