This is a link to the service guide to this phone. It explains many things http://www.qvc.com/footers/el/pdf/E226810-servicesguide.pdf

You do not need a service contract.

Totally dumb question from a novice... but if I buy this new LG and have the 840 from a few years back... and want to give that phone to a relative, can I own two TracFones under my name? I would think yes... but just not sure how it works.

Thanks.

I think you would need to contact Tracfone for a new SIM card for the old 840 and then the new owner could set it up with a new phone number. I did that with one of my old phones because I wanted a backup. I requested a new SIM card using the live chat feature under Tracfone's support menu. It was easier for me to do an online chat than call the 800 number.

If you bought the TSV and got a new phone number would that work out?

Hi Schippy ... Thanks for the link to the review for the LG phone. Pretty high remarks. I pre-ordered the phone from Q email a few days ago, I definitely feel more at ease with my purchase after watching a couple presentations today & now reading the review you linked. Thnx again!

nutmeg3, thank you so much for the link to the services guide. I did not know these existed. Are they available for any Tracfone?

I caved...looks like a beautiful device, love the sleek look to the web pages and the GPS feature is cool. And the Skype feature with front facing camera! Can't wait to get it!!

My Centura browser is so crummy and swamped with ads so I rarely use it so I have close to 5000 mb of data! I pay $44 each time for 600 minutes and that buys me 4-5 weeks of talk time anyway and need to buy minutes soon anyway. Rarely have dropped calls with Verizon.

You may want to look at buying a regular cell phone with Verizon. Tracfone is "giving" customers a great phone so they will use their data plan. The data plans with tracfone are high. http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1813574-Tracfone-Android-Data-Plan-Ad-on-Costs

Thanks - I really don't use much data, I use voice minutes and text. I was with T-Mobile for years and years and the whole buy the phone/lock-in contract deal. Their poor coverage never improved and the CS is horrible - I had a BlackBerry. The phone was no longer on warranty and the SA were very rude, I was so disgusted I wrote the District Mgr a letter and email! He was just as rude. I was with them for 10 years! I looked around at Verizon and GoPhone prepaids and the others, not interested in monthly auto-withdrawals from my bank account. With Tracfone the only dealings i've had with the reps were with initialization, a call or two to get up and running.
