Made a Slickdeals account to post about my experience as a current Tracfone user

Placed an order for as an upgrade to my existing phone line on Monday morning PST, got UPS shipping info later for 2nd Day Air in the early evening that says it was arriving Wednesday. The package arrived on Wednesday during the afternoon.

It did not come with a physical SIM so don't bother trying to rip open that Tracfone cardboard off the box. The iPhone 13 was brand new and I wanted to transfer over all the data from my BOYP old unlocked iPhone 11, the process went pretty well except updating the iPhone 13 to iOS 26 took awhile.

Everything from my old iPhone is now on the new iPhone 13. As other posters had suggested, I skipped all steps regarding eSIM and phone number transfer. I waited for the new iPhone to fully update all the transfered apps before I started the activation process.

Started the eSIM activation process on the Tracfone site selecting my current phone number, when it asked for the IMEI, make sure it matches the one on the box. You'll get a text on the old phone and just enter it on the Tracfone site. You have to wait for a bit on the site for it to fully process after entering the code. Got a push notification on the new iPhone to set up the new eSIM then it finally confirmed that my number is on my new iPhone.

Tested out my texts, calls and data, everything is working as expected. 90 days was added to my existing line with all my old benefits, so I now have service till January 2026. On top of the $10 CB, I essentially paid $90 for a brand new iPhone with a $50 90 days plan that was cheaper than the current PayGo Plan I was on.

Overall a positive no headaches experience of setting up a new phone bought from Tracfone to upgrade on an existing line. Also it now shows up as 'Verizon' instead of 'TFW' as your service in the top status bar.

60 days of active service needed for unlock, a lot people reporting it doesn't auto unlock so you have to contact CS, so you're looking at three months.

Nothing wrong with OP's post. If you follow his instructions, it works. He specifically said, pick next to last plan.
Repped for pointing this out. I have edited my post. I see that now. That sentence should be bolded!

Is it auto unlocked after two months or we need to ask them to do that?
Should auto unlock, but I think you have to at least make one call with it. In any case there shouldn't be any need to contact them.
In the past, there was a straight talk deal when some people needed to reach out but since these are supposed to be new it should auto unlock.

It's allowing the discount if you choose the $50 90 plan (instead of the $50 x 3 months plan).

Choose this one when adding to the cart:

$50
90 Days
750 Minutes
1500 Texts
2 GB Data

Screenshot also attached.
I have edited my comment. Reps for the help. I completely missed that seeing the very first plan looked like the way to go. OP should bold that sentence about picking the next to the last plan. I am not alone here in my poor reading skills, when every moment counts to get a deal. Embarrassment

do you need to have 2 months of service or just the 1 month and wait for 2 months to pass?

I believe they are still the minority relatively speaking.

To get the $200 off, you are buying 3 months of service. But to answer your question, you do need the two full months of active service.

Can this be an upgrade to an existing line and still unlock after 60 days or does it need to be a new and separate line?

ID verification is my favorite part, it is sad they don't have it.

Will these work for T-Mobile once unlocked? What's the process to unlock them? Thanks!

What I want to know if iPhone 13 belongs in the museum or still usable for a couple of years?

Follow up: Could you start using on another provider after 60 days? Or would you have to wait 90 days because of the plan you purchase from tracfone?
