    So far this TracFone TCL has been working ok for me. First time using this type of phone so it is taking me a while to learn how to use it and adjust to it. It's just the right size to fit in my hand.

    Phone into Geek Sq. and asked to transfer info from old phone to new one. Needs PW to get into it so he can transf. info. Go home to find PW & no PW. Go back w/appt. this time and asked 'nicely' to transfer info. Asked if it was done 'yes' calendar, contacts, etc. were not transferred. Get home and cannot connect to WIFI and no I cannot return phone, NO HELP AT STORE and go disconnected to GEEK SQUAD. NOW BOTH PHONES DON'T WORK. LOVELY All the BAD reviews that I read after buying phone, I wished I hadn't paid for the Geek Squad help, especially in the store.
