I have a ? for those who have bought tracfones in the past. I bought 2 last year - my account says my final day is June 21st. Do I just need to buy more minutes or buy a new phone?
@MeMaw23 - Sorry, just saw this question. The final day you're referring to is your last date of service. Regardless of how many minutes you have left, you need to add service to your phone. You can do that by buying a one-year service card (which will include some more minutes/text/data; usually 400 which will triple to 1200) or you can buy a new phone, if you can find a package that includes the service and minutes.
If you buy a new phone, keep in mind that you'll have to transfer everything to it. So, if you love your current phone, I'd be inclined to keep it, unless you find a much better deal than just buying the card.
Please note though: you must add additional service before your current service expires. Otherwise, you'll lose all the minutes/text/data you now have on your phone and I don't think you will get it back, even if you call them. (They really clamped down on that.) You can buy this additional service anytime before your final date and it will tack on to what you have now and extend it for another year.
