This bundle is mainly a cheap way to get an iPhone 12 with a year of unlimited talk and text and 12GB of data to use over the full year. The phone is brand new in the box, and the total still looks attractive versus buying a used iPhone 12 outright. The main catches are the 64GB fixed storage, the older 2020 hardware, and the fact that the phone stays locked until after 12 full months of active paid service. TracFone also can deactivate dormant lines, so it works best as a backup or light-use phone.

TF unlocks phones after 60 days after activated with TF plan.
Not anymore. It used to be 60 days yes. Now it's 365 days after Verizon stepped bought them out and made changes.

Incorrect. It's after one year of paid service. So on the 13th paid month, you may request it.

Not correct! That was the old policy! Devices activated after Jan 20, 2026 require 365 days of paid active service to satisfy the unlocking requirements.

Quote from fieryarcade View quoted comment :
Out of curiosity, does it automatically unlock after 365 days of paid service? If not, can you request the unlock from outside of the United States after the period is over?
I've unlocked multiple Tracfone phones from Canada. They unlock automatically once the specified period elapses (used to be 2 months ) . You just have to reboot the phone a few times (connected to WiFi obviously) . But I never tried it with iPhone . Always android devices.

EDIT: Seems like you need to request unlock now and it's not automatic. Also you might have to buy 13th month of service? But I don't see a reason why calling from outside US would be a problem to unlock. WiFi calling works fine.

Did you not google "tracfone unlock policy"? It's literally the first link. If you can't do this, you should not be on prepaid.Source: been on prepaid for 15 years
Prepaid unlock policies are always changing. I bought several prepaid phone before, only to realize they increased unlock policy from 60 days to 365 days. Money down the drain. If you know the answer, just post here. No need to be mean.

As stated in the deal details, that's for the year. It's essentially the 1GB/mo planx12. However, you could burn through that 12GB in 1 month and not be left with any data for the rest of the year. It would be better if they gave you 1GB/mo.
You could also save up data and have essentially rollover data you don't use. Better than 1GB/month IMO. I just wish iPhone had data limiter built into the OS like android.

A call or text every 180 days will be sufficient.
Just put a reminder in your calendar to send one text / call one random 1-800 number on the 1st of each month just to be sure.

What would happen if I added this plan to my current Tracfone 1.5/1.5/1500 plan? Would it basically add 12 GB of data to my balance? What about calls / texts?

How do you not get any junk texts or spam calls? I get tons.
That does not count. You need to actively use your phone , ie make a phone call or send a text.

Plans no longer combine on TracFone they delete whatever is the previous plan or have it as your backup plan and revert to the plan that you paid for so only one plan is active at a time they do not combine but if one expires the other one continues into the end of its service date. Back in the day you used to just be able to stack cards not anymore.

Bought it just for the iphone. Cheapest way to get a brand new iphone. Also while ios updates on this are ending soon security updates are likely to continue for a couple of years. Wish the unlock didn't require buying an additional month but even then it's a brand new iphone for $160 all in if you need one.
