I use Tracfone for my little one when i take a trip to a amusement park or any family activity. I like the fact you can pay for minutes rather pay monthly which makes ideal for an extra emergency phone.

I really like this Tracfone service, it fits my needs perfectly. I love the rollover minutes, text & data where if I don’t use it I don’t lose it as well as the calling card being good for 3 months!

This was the cheapest I was able to get for an emergency phone, and the minutes are good for 90-days before expiring. Three times as long as most 30-day plans. The sim kit only cost me $1 to get started, and I used it on an old iPhone.

Refill time cards for our tracfones always work well. For us, our cells phones are for emergency use and texting with grandchildren and the value and monthly cost are invaluable.

60 Min is actually 180

The card said 60min/90 days but maybe they meant 60-per-month for 90 days? Anyway, happy surprise. Glad to find you can use these without having to register an email address with Tracfone, and there's at least one company left where you don't have to have web access to keep a phone on the air.

Hi. This is Wendy from TracFone Wireless. Thank you so much for giving us a perfect rating. We truly appreciate doing business with you. The 60min/90days airtime card is good for 90 days. The 60 minutes will become 180 minutes once a customer's phone is with the Triple-Minute Plan For Life. Should you be having queries or any related concerns, do not hesitate to let us know. Have a great day.

I have found that this can be the most economical approach to using the smart phone. Pay as you go works well for someone who uses their phone outside of a WiFi network infrequently.

Enough for an emergency phone

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I bought a basic phone and card because my smart phone locked up just before a trip. I thought this would just be a solution to handle making a call in an emergency. When I activated the phone, it gave me 180 minutes (3x) with the 60 minute card. That has me using it as a regular phone. Had it been only 60 minutes I would be using the phone quite differently. Paying $20 for 60 minutes seems expensive. Apparently some TracFone phones are 3x and others are not. So your mileage may vary.

If your do not a use a lot of time talking, texting, or need an unlimited data plan. It's the cheapest way to keep your Tracfone service active. You get 90 days added to your Tracfone service.

We keep this phone for emergency use only, so this plan is a good value. Requesting an online receipt is helpful, as you can copy and paste the number needed to replenish your account.

My TracFone costs me $80 per year with the refill cards; it's $20 for every 3 months. The phone was only $60. Of course, I mainly use my phone for calls and texts, so for me it is a good fit.
