When you activate this new phone purchase, there is an option to choose either port in a new number, or activate this phone for an existing number already serviced by TracFone. For the latter option, it disables my old SIM card and enables the number to run on this new phone + sim card combo, and adds an one whole year of service expiration date (e.g. from end of 2027 to end of 2028), in addition to the available credit units (minutes, SMS counts, data). And since I started to use this phone in early 2026, it will automatically unlock in early 2027.

Never swap sim from another phone. TracFone is very anal about attaching a SIM card to the phone it came in. You could lose service one day bc they consider SIM swap against their terms. To change phones, you need to activate a nEW BYOP SIM..

I use Google Voice almost all the time so I have to remind myself to show some activity on my "spares" but lately they've been sending reminder emails wanting me to use them more often. Not sure what's going on - hope you get reactivated, I'd be PO'd to lose 2 of my numbers.
Google voice changes policy that prevents abusive. From now on, any new sign up GV must upload Identity like driver license, ID... One owns so many GV will be lost soon.

Oof. Well, I'll let you know how mine goes. Worst case scenario, EcoATM was giving me an online offer of $21 - locked or otherwise.

Yes, I got $15 discount per month. Took one month to apply.

all you can do is try, there's never a guarantee with TF.

They rejected my TF as locked - but they do accept unlocked phones for BB gift cards.

Strange that they'd be that way, even after asking which carrier the trade-ins are locked to.

It's not a good idea to wait to activate - if there's any problem with activation of plan it will be too late to return.
I've done it twice. No problems. My current Samsung phone was activated 11 months after I bought it from Tracfone at QVC. I even verified this with them. Email Tracfone if you don't believe me.

I didn't say you couldn't do it -
I said waiting to activate wasn't a good idea if anything was wrong (like no plan being added that someone here complained about).

I thought so too, even tried arguing but they paid to return a $15 phone. You might have better luck in a BB store, I did mine by mail.

Oh, I took Amazon on their own trade up offer that was on the product's page itself. But hey, if they really want to pay for the return shipping then whatever I guess?
