A:AnswerThe advantage is that quite often a merchant will "package" a branded Tracfone with a plan at a very attractive price. As an example, QVC recently packaged a branded Tracfone with 1 year of service (with minutes/texts/data) at a price that was only slightly above the 1 year of service cost. so the phone ended up being almost free.
A:AnswerHI. This is Cristy from TracFone Wireless. Yes, it will work as long as your phone is compatible with our Bring Your Own Phone (BYOP) Program. Compatible phones include GSM unlocked phones (operating 850 and 1900 MHz bands), and some other CDMA technology compatible phones. For CDMA phones, serial number is needed to check its eligibility. Thank you.
A:AnswerHi. This is Mae from TracFone Wireless. It may work as long as your phone is unlocked and compatible with our Bring Your Own Phone program. Since we don't have the list of phone models, you need to verify with the previous carrier if your phone is registered under GSM or CDMA technology. For GSM, we support any unlocked phones. If your phone is unlocked, please make sure that it operates in 850 and 1900 MHz bands. If it is registered as CDMA, you may check the phone's compatibility on our website at https://www.tracfone.com/byop /. For CDMA phones, serial number is needed to check its eligibility. If it is compatible, then it will connect to 4G LTE. Customer must contact the reseller of the phone to know its original provider. Same compatibility guidelines and activation process are followed. Thanks.

A:Answersounds like what i just did...so id say yes.
i went from an old verizon flip phone to tracfone with a samsung note 5 then a google pixel 2, with no issues
kept number and have been happy ever since.
hope that helps.
A:Answer99.9% sure it will
i had a galaxy note 3 and it worked so id say yes.
Straight Talk is a type of carrier known as an MVNO (mobile virtual network operator), which means that it doesn't run or own a wireless network. Instead, it purchases the right to use towers from AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint. - much like tracfone.
hope that helps.
A:Answerif the phone is "unlocked" it can be used anywhere, im thinking if its tracfone it is unlocked. << not sure.
a plan card im assuming is time but not activation so im thinking yes on that one...you'd need the $1.99 activation card.
so if you wanted to stay with tracfone... you'd be looking at $1.99 for the activation kit and then put the time on from the plan card...and your up and running...or try to deal with another company and plans and contracts or monthly...bla bla bla..
hope that helps...
A:AnswerYou will have to get a new SIM card by TracFone and transfer your phone number. You will not have triple minutes anymore. You will have to get a smartphone refill card, but your previous minutes will transfer over.
A:AnswerHi. My name is Maria and I work with TracFone Wireless. It will work if you have an AT&T or T-Mobile compatible or an unlocked domestic GSM phone, which operates on our compatible frequencies (850 and 1900 MHz). If you have a CDMA or CDMA LTE phone, we will need to validate the phone's compatibility. If you have any further questions or concerns, you can contact us via chat at http://bit.ly/2qdrKHH. For your convenience, our representatives are available Monday-Sunday from 8:00 AM to 11:45 PM EST. You can also use our self-service menu by simply texting the word HELP to 611611.
A:AnswerHi. This is Glen from TracFone Wireless. We understand your concern. However, our TracFone Bring Your Own Phone (BYOP) SIM cards will only work to all BYOP compatible phones. It will not work to any other devices such as Smart watches. Thanks.
A:AnswerStraight Talk is a competitor to Tracfone. They each buy capacity from the "big 4" (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint). You just have to make sure whichever provider you choose is compatible with your phone (AT&T/T-Mobile use GSM; Verizon uses CDMA and Sprint uses a propriety technology but is being acquired by T-Mobile).
A:AnswerHi. Thiis is Glen from TracFone Wireless. Yes. You may select the CDMA SIM card to your phone. For further assistance, please chat with us at http://bit.ly/2qdrKHH.
