QVC JUNE 26 TSV TRACFONE

shoptheQ — Thu, 07 Jun 2018 16:34:27 GMT

Does anyone have any details (cost / phone brand) about this upcoming TSV ? Or suggestions as to where I could get the information?

I currently have a samsung tracfone that I will need to add mins/data etc in July; but may be more cost effective to get a new phone.

Thanks in advance for your help.

DH and I both have Tracfone. We bought our phones when the minutes were tripled each time minutes were purchased but that “perk” is no longer available. It may be too early to know the details of the TSV.

@shoptheQ The insider is no longer published with advance TSVs. Q usually releases TSV info a couple of days before the actual TSV. I probably will be available around 6/24.

Keep in mind the Tracfone TSV may be a different brand than your Samsung. I have a Tracfone LG phone that was a TBV on Evine about a year ago. (It works fine, however!)

I'm confused. How could it be cheaper to buy a new Trac Smartphone that it just buying minutes and data for the phone you already have?????

🌾 🌾 Here we go again!

@OKPrincess, if you bought a TracFone that triples, then talk, text, and data will ALWAYS triple, as long as you buy from the 'Pay As You Go' menu.

The 'Pay As You Go' plans all have the ability to triple.

The 'Smartphone Only' plans don't triple, period.

The 'Add On's', (text or data bought separately menu) don't triple.

If you have a smartphone you can buy from any of the menus. You aren't required to buy from the Smartphone Only menu.

Calculate the best menu deal for the way you use your phone. I've never bought from the Smartphone Only menu for either of my smartphones because it doesn't offer a good deal for me.

@shoptheQ

Brand is LG but that’s all the details I’ve seen so far.

@chrystaltree

I buy a new phone every year for my 81 year old Dad. The last phone I got him was under $80. It came with a year of service + 1200 minutes, 1200 texts & I can’t remember how much data. When I checked tracfone I couldn’t find any offers that included a year of service for under $99. He doesn’t use a lot of minutes or data so the main thing is the year of service. As long as I transfer from his old phone before the service is up all his minutes carry over.

@Tribesters Last year I bought a year of service for my TracFone for $50 online. I did not need any more mins., data, etc.

I do text a lot so I also recently bought 1,000 texts for $5.00.

My service year will end in Sept. and I may do the same thing in Sept. and just extend the service for 365 days.

Would this help you?

@Big Sister

I looked online but the cheapest year of service I could find was just under $100. Where did you find the $50 offer? I even tried to buy it directly from Tracfone & didn’t see that good a price. I know they have good deals on minutes but most of the ones I saw had 30-90 days of service.

@Tribesters I don't recall exactly where or how I found it online on the TracFone site, but I will look for it now and to see if it will help you.

Maybe I bookmarked it; I'll check that out.

I'm back. I found it and I hope I can give you instructions. Go to the Tracfone site, enter your phone number when it asks, click on 365 days of service at $125, and put that in your cart. At check out, scroll down and find 365 service days for $49. Put that in your cart. Now you have two things in your cart. Remove (trash) the $125 item and that will leave you with $49 for the 365 days of service. This is for a smartphone. Remember whatever you put in your cart you can trash it and just leave the $49 charge to buy. Let me know if this helps.

The deal usually includes the phone the case the charger and 1200 min, data, and text and 1 year of service . so say the price of the tsv is 129.00 if you bought 1 year of service and 1200 min text and data for your old phone you would pay at least 99.00 so in this deal you would get a new phone for 29.00 .(i usually do this every year ) hope this helps!!

@Big Sister

Wow- thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to check into this for me. I had no idea you could add it to the cart & find that better price. I will remember this for next time. Thanks again!

@Big Sister

I read this somewhere in this forum. Usually I buy a new phone, but I really like the one I have. I did exactly as instructed and received another year's service for $50-ish.

I did the same thing a few months back. A great deal to get the extra service time!
