Tracfone, Mins, Data & Texts

[ Edited ]

Tracfone now has where you can buy mins only, text only or data only mins for less money. You can add 500 mins only for $35, 1000 mins only for $50 & so on plus it adds 90 service days. If you text a lot you can buy 1000 text for $10. If you surf the net a lot you can buy 300 MB for $10 & so on. It DOES NOT TRIPLE. Only good on Smartphones & BYOP plans. This will be good for DH since he uses more mins.

Glad this helps your husband. FIRST , check your post(500 mins $35/100 mins for $50)?

 

My wife had Tracfone with their 1st Android offer. Then she got into this "texting"(which I view as?) Had to keep adding/adding, to the point it cost too danged much. 

 

When she was in the hospital from her stroke, I bought her a Samsung Galaxy SII phone from hsn.  It came with a Sprint plan for $35 per month which is: Unlimited talk and text and 1gb of data. Since most "data use" is via wifi? The most data she has used is 300mb in a month.

 

Works great for her and much cheaper than adding texts with Tracfone. She just bought a Samsung S5 and is still with the same Sprint monthly plan. With tax and whatever I think her total is $37.50 a month. If she is happy, I am happy.    =^..^=

Thx John I edited my post to show 1000 mins instead of 100.

Re: Tracfone, Mins, Data & Texts

I guess there were a lot of views but no more replies. I thought this was something new & people using Tracfone's would be interested in. Maybe it's not new. I thought they just started doing this. I'm buying DH 3000 mins plus 1000 text mins. He will only get 90 service days going this route but his service days are good until 2017 anyways.
