    First ever problem with these cards

    On the 7th.I was notified by text that my current $30.00 pre-paid card would expire on the 8th. and to avoid any disconnection in service enter the new pin number NOW which I did. When I attempted to make a call on the 9th I got a recording saying there was no money in the account and to get a top-up card. Lesson learned. If I use the top-up card ON THE DAY it's due the system applies it to the previous time period and basically eats my $30.00 From now on I'll wait until the day AFTER it's due, which is what I'd been doing all along.

    Fifty Dollar Card Right Here.

    I bought this card, and it was exactly what I expected. I needed 50 dollars for a prepaid Verizon on a card, there it was. If you are looking for a 50 dollar prepaid card, look no further. Scratched off the strip...boom. Numbers and sometimes letters. Put the numbers and letters in the app...boom. 50 dollars. No more, but perhaps more importantly, no less. Take it from me, if you are looking for a Verizon 50 dollar prepaid card, and want a 50 dollar Verizon prepaid card, you could do a lot worse than purchasing this one. 50 dollars. Straight to Verizon. Couldn't recommend enough. Unless you have a different provider. Then it would be basically useless. If the sea were ink, and the sky were parchment, I still could not even begin to write how satisfied I am with my purchase of this 50 dollar prepaid card. It is exactly what I expected. If you need 50 dollars on your Verizon prepaid phone, don't hesitate to jump all over this one.

    Bought to setup my Verizon prepaid Moto e6. Very easy setup and instructions to inform you on prepaid phones and plans and card usages. Buying another as a backup in the car, for which the phone is for in the case of emergencies. Great idea!

    These Verizon wireless refill cards are so much easier to use than other carriers when your minutes run out. All I have to do is dial the number on the back of the card and follow a few prompts and I’m all set for another month of phone service. The $30 plan works great for me even though make a lot of calls and texts and my data has never run out early so I feel like I get a lot for what I paid for too!

    This was quick and easy to use. I scraped the back and texted the number. The bad thing is that they charge you surcharges and other companies don't. If this keeps up I'm going to have to change to another cell phone company.

    Easy prepaid refill card for VZW

    My son has a prepaid phone through Verizon. This is how we pay for his monthly plan. He has a non-smart phone so it only costs us $15 a month. We have never had any problems refilling his minutes using these prepaid cards. My only gripe is that sometimes they may not have the denomination of card that you want but it isn't a big deal because we only spend $15 per month regardless. I would recommend this to other parents that want to keep in touch with their kids without giving them a smartphone or putting them on an expensive phone plan contract.

    Great service, disappointing time limit.

    I feel that if you pay for a certain amount of something, it should be yours to use until it is gone. With this prepay card, you pay for it, but if you only use a small fraction of it in 30 days, tough luck, the rest of your purchase is stripped from your hands. I would recommend this, conditionally, only because it is the closest thing I have found on the market that allows you to prepay for a data hotspot. It can end up being basically FAR FAR more expensive than you imagine, if you need the option to having (x amount of) GB available for a use, but end up using just a smidge during your first 30 days. Oh, also, the fact that you have to have an account etc. defeats the purpose of having a prepay. I use this in professional setting, and I would like to be able to give the remainder to my clients after the one time use, but that is impossible due to how this is set up. All of that said, Verizon is the best service, and this has performed SOLIDLY for me.

    Convenient way to pay Verizon.

    It is a convenient alternative for "pre-paying" for the first month of prepaid service from Verizon to get your service started almost immediately (before you leave your Best Buy store: if you are like me, you like to see that your device or phone is working before leaving the store. But I did not remember that Best Buy does not apply the credit to your receipt from Best Buy. Instead, it is normally paid to Verizon for your first month of service.

    My first cell phone decades ago was on Verizon and I had NO problems with either the phone or the network, but since then have had several other services that are just not worth the time or expense ! I;m home !

    Works well but expires in 30 days

    I bought this to charge the Verizon Ellipsis and use as a backup system in the event the internet failed during important video conferences. The service worked well. Two things I did not like. One, it was difficult to know how much to purchase. Two, it expires in 30 days. From a value standpoint, it is an expensive option. Next time I would buy smaller increments and top off data as needed.

    Starts off as $50 but the longer you purchase the service the cheaper it becomes. First discount after 3 months then again after 9 months. Service is strong and fast. Was on a contract before but prefer the flexibility of this prepaid card. Can switch amount of data I want at anytime, I am not locked into something. Highly recommend!

    This is a quick and easy way to pay. But they charge you taxes and surcharges. That money is used to pay for Obama phones

    Purchased the $30 Verizon Prepaid card, logged onto my Verizon account, entered the numbers from the back of the card and I was set for another month! It's great for Verizon customers who don't want to use a credit card to pay their monthly bill.

    Exactly what I asked for,... Thank You Best Buy. This is a convenient way to readily refill my minutes on my flip phone. I'm enjoying the ease of purchasing more than one month at a time, rather than returning monthly to buy another card.

    50 bones for a hotspot

    I purchased this item for a prepaid hotspot. I’m not sure how much data $50 gives you and apparently the card expires 30 days after activation. That is not stated in the description but the info is stated in many of customer reviews.

    I have infrequent events in remote locations where I need to provide Wi-Fi access to several devices. This is a great solution to provide data when I need it without paying for months when I do not need it. Verizon coverage is amazing.
