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.

Do you think it's too slow for the above?
buy the two pack and combine service. you have a serviceable phone and phone service for 2 years for 85 bucks, not bad really.

Moto G 5G (with unlimited T/T/24GB data) was a good deal too.
I'm buying mainly for service rather than the phone but it certainly wouldn't hurt if the replacement phone is nice. 😊
I do want a nice Android but I'm looking at the OnePlus 13 and Samsung S25 Ultra. I doubt we'll get those on QVC/HSN Tracfone deals. 😛

I use one of these as a burner phone for my wife's veterinary business. she sometimes wants to call people on weekends and evenings but doesn't want them to have her actual cell phone number!
tempted to do another 2pk of the 2024 phones but just can't justify having 4 of them.
