The tracfone prepaid airtime cards make the best gift. We really wanted to give my parents a cell phone; they are retired and on the road a lot in their motorhome. We wanted to be able to contact them. But, we did not want to stick them with a monthly fee on their fixed income. So the trackphone with these prepaid airtime cards was perfect. We can give them airtime in advance. And it makes it easy to give a gift they can use anytime.

I have a tracfone, and absolutely love it. The way it works is this: you have to buy a card every couple of months to keep the phone active, but the minutes roll over as long as you don't let it lapse. Also, the phone tells you each time you turn it on how many minutes are left and when your next card is due.

For someone who uses their phone for emergencies and occasional use, this is ideal, I have NO complaints.

I bought my Tracfone in August because we were going on a wilderness vacation. I wanted the comfort of being in touch with my daughter while I was away, but didn't want to go to a lot of expense, didn't want to worry about surprise charges, and definitely didn't want a contract. The Tracfone was cheap, no activation fee, no hidden charges, and the 30 minute card suited my purpose perfectly. I called my daughter once, and she called me twice. I had 8 minutes left when I got home, and I bought another 30 minute card at a local store. That card extended my time till after Christmas. I called my daughter while we were on the road Thanksgiving Day. This is a PERFECT phonecard arrangement for anyone who really wants a cell phone for limited use. The minute cost might sound high, but remember that this is the ONLY cost, and it's not use-it-or-lose-it. I love the fact that I don't have to try to use the minutes before they expire.

tracfone card are so easy to use and the bestpart you have no charge every month. you buy what you need every 2 months or i month tracfone is the best way to go the service for tracfone is 5 stars and great phone service for help with your phone

I am TracFone customer since last 2-3 months. I am extremely satisfied with this. Earlier I was paying around [money]/- a month for AT&T service with 1 year contract and sometimes I used to get a large bill if I exceed the included minutes as there was no good way to track the minutes used in that month. I switched to tracfone as soon as my contract finished. If you buy 60 minutes time, it is valid for 60 days and only in around [less money]/-. Great! and no contracts.
I found customer service good and responsive. I bought the refurbished phone which started giving problem after a week of service. I contacted TracFone and they gave a new replacement phone. It has free voicemail also and you can check your voicemails from another phone and so yo do not loose your TracFone minutes.
You may also get $25/- free airtime....

I recommended Tracfone 6 months ago to a cousin. Now I am ashamed. I recently used their obviously out sourced support team to try to change my number when I moved. So far I have been given 5 (FIVE)numbers (none work) and a lot of mis information. I was willing to accept roaming if nothing else worked. I have roaming on my phone now and I get a message saying the local carrier cannot accept my call. 6 months ago at the same location everything worked fine.

The only reason I gave them one star was there was nothing lower available. Conside my frustration. My phone doesn't work at the location it once did, I've spent hours on the phone, Tracfone support has given me 5 different numbers, and still have no service.

Zero stars!!!! I have had my Tracfone for 2 weeks - have made numerous calls to their so-called Customer Service - have spent most of the time on hold - and still have "No Service". I have not been able to send or receive any calls since I have had it. And beware - if you buy it and it does not work they will not refund your money - apparently in India they do not believe in standing behind their product. So now I have a totally worthless phone and am out the money I spent.

I've owned a Tracfone for 3 years. My old Tracfone quit working, so I purchased a new one. I've been trying for 4 weeks to transfer my old phone number to my new Tracfone. It's been a nightmare-after 4 weeks, 3 new sim cards, and countless calls to TracFone customer service reps, I've accomplished nothing. My phone is still not activated, I still don't have my old number transfered, and I've wasted 7 hours speaking to customer reps. I don't recommend TracFone.

My tracfone has worked out good so far. Customer service is fine and the free voicemail was easy to set up and use. If you decide to get a tracfone, please email me for a quick referral before activating it- we each will get 100 free minutes from the 'refer a friend' program. I'll also send you the simple instructions to follow. I've used Tracfone for quite a while, so i should be able to answer any questions you might have.
ps even if you have activated in the last few weeks i should be able to get us the free minutes.

tracfone is a great company for anyone looking to get a contract free cellphone. because you can buy the minute cards anwhere this service is good even for kids. i would highly recommend their service to anyone especially if you have kids. with their new digital service you get free caller id an voicemail, which many of the other wireless service dont have. And if you are just activating your phone or even just reactivating you can get 100 free minutes by using the refer a friend service. you can email me at shivathediva2003@yahoo.com and i will send you a email and you can get a free 100 minutes. I hope that you find this review helpful. I also have the information on how to send ringtones to tracfone phones, which i will send with a referral
