A:AnswerThis is Redje from Tracfone Wireless. You're right, the term "prepaid" with Tracfone means that you pay for your wireless service in advance before you can use it. Think of it like a pay-as-you-go system.
Here's a breakdown of what "prepaid" typically entails with Tracfone:
No Contract: Unlike traditional postpaid phone plans, Tracfone prepaid service doesn't require you to sign a long-term contract. You have the flexibility to choose a service plan that meets your needs without being locked in.
Service Plans: To activate your phone and use it for calls, texts, and data, you need to purchase and add a Tracfone service plan. These plans come with a set amount of minutes, text messages, and data that are valid for a specific period (e.g., 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, or a year, depending on the plan).
Activation: Once you purchase a service plan, you'll need to activate your phone. This process usually involves visiting the Tracfone website or calling our customer care line and following the instructions to link your new phone to your chosen service plan.
Refills: When your service plan's minutes, texts, or data are running low, or when your service period is about to end, you'll need to "refill" your account by purchasing another service plan to continue using your phone.
Control Over Spending: Prepaid service allows you to control your spending on wireless service. You only pay for the service you need and can choose plans that fit your budget.
So, you're correct that even though the phone itself is "prepaid" (meaning it's designed to work with prepaid service), you do need to purchase a Tracfone service plan to activate the service and start using the phone for calls, texts, and data.
A:AnswerThis is Redje from Tracfone Wireless. Unfortunately, we don't directly sell or have specific availability for Tracfone-branded phones like the Motorola moto g play 2024 in Cebu City, Philippines. You'd likely need to look at international online retailers that ship to your location or search for the unlocked version of the Motorola moto g play 2024 from local electronics stores or online marketplaces in the Philippines. ^Redje

A:AnswerYou should check on the specific GSM bands it operates on--different countries used different bands, so even though it will be a GSM phone, there might be some problems with compatibility in different countries.
Don't know about international plans, since its been some time since I was overseas. At that time, you would just walk into a local store at whatever your location and buy a plan for your time there.
I believe that the Lyca Mobile has, or had, international plans, but can't swear to it.
A:AnswerI believe its up to individual store policy, and it might depend on the cost of the phone; a more expensive phone might be more likely for them to set it up for you. When I bought a $100 Moto G from BB some years ago, they offered to set it up for me.
