Unlock automatically after one whole year of active service, which means, depending on your luck, you may need to renew for at least one month after this initial one-year payment to see the phone unlocked. This may be a nuisance for new users. But for me, since I already have previous deals stacked on the same number and this purchase adds one year to the previous end of 2027 service expiration date, this is not an issue at all.

Thanks! How do you stack? Just redeem the coupon against the current account?

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.

I added this to the previous thread, but if you're only interested in service, these phones have good trade-in value. Amazon itself will trade back the phone for $30 and I had an EcoATM quote for $20.

Go to "Activate" on Tracfone's site. Tell it you wish to activate a new phone purchased from Tracfone. Then, select the "keep my number" option and follow the prompts.

What if you want to moved back your service to your old phone again?
