My mother uses a TRACFONE plan... they have a LOT of them for flip phones. She uses the one that costs $99 per year and they multiply their "400 minutes" by THREE actually providing 1200 minutes. If you use them all, when you buy another block of minutes, it will add BOTH minutes and MORE TIME. They have a lot of various plans you'll need to check on their website. IF YOU DO NOT use all the minutes they roll over as long as you don't let the TIME expire first. WIth my mothers plan, she always has minutes left over. When you renew, ever since VERIZON purchased TRACFONE - the lose your remaining minutes. You need to keep track of what you have remaining BEFORE you buy more minutes and time. They WILL give them back to you but you need to know what you have before you top it off. You can see it on the website under your account.
