You have to scroll down a bit to find it. So there you go, texts are not minutes. Data is not minutes. So no problem with your and my contract. And I don't work for Tracfone btw. Then why does Tracfone triple the texts and data on the minutes card example I referenced? They are being inconsistent. I have a smart phone tracfone. So does that mean that when i put on a card for 60 minutes does it tipple to for each categorie?
So i have a smartphone tracfone. So when i put on a 60 minutes card and it is supposed to tripple to minutes, will it triple and put minutes into each categorie? This guide is great for text only people, but it does leave out the "other buckets". So, for some, this isn't entirely true. An example: the 60 min card tripped gives you units in each bucket. So, each unit separately costs 3. This actually means that minutes are now cheaper like I said, depending on metered or whole min cost , but texts are more expensive, but not by much.
I mean I suppose you could look at it as 11cents a text with bonus free minutes and data. An Awkward trade off, but still less painful than 11cents and still pretty cheap nonetheless. If you're a text only person, this guild is by all means the best possible outcome for you.
But I occasionally like to hear peoples voices Okay, it's my mama. Ps, Smart shoppers won't forget bonus codes. This can lower the cost per unit at least a cent!
Anyhow, it really is a great guide. Been fallowing for years, you guys really know how to patch up a wallet. Keep it up! It triple all '3' categories minutes, text, data forever as long and you keep it current, and your service days rollover too, if you add more minutes before your current end date.
Tracfone smart phone and BYOP phone. Answer asap please. I have not seen the text only cards in walmart or dollar general, but those are the only two places I have looked for them. I think I read on line recently that text only cards were seen in Target. Found it! I ran out of texts, so I bought the texts card. I am disappointed that the only people that receive texts from me now are other tracfone customers - friends on other networks can only receive texts from me if i have texts on a regular airtime card.
Defeats the purpose for the text only card. From the website it is only available to be added directly to the phone, under smartphone tab. The cards are only available in Target.
The text will be directly added to whatever phone number is entered. No card will arrive in the mail. Sounds like you have a glitch. I have been buying text only cards for months and friends on other networks have no problems receiving my texts. They are there, last card in the stack on their website and Walmart now has them, I bought two there yesterday.
Why can't I send a picture through text? When I receive on it won't download. I have used for many years. Now on smartphone plan and these work as described. Added through my account online. Just investigate the value for the service you want. Verified purchase: Yes Condition: New. I've been a cell phone user for 18 yrs now with major carrier's and their high fees.. I switched to trac phone 4 yrs ago and seriously wish I would have much earlier..
I'm very happy with the service and especially with the low price When I finally did get it, it was so wrinkled that I had to use a magnifying glass to be able to figure out the pin numbers. It did go through fine. If you aren't in a hurry to get it, all was good in the end. It is great for the money spent but you get a better deal on a day card. I bought a year extension card after I down loaded the air time first. I don't trust buying trac fone cards anymore.
Does the new TracFone triple bucket plan behave the same way? Am I charged for a text if I don't read it and simply delete it? With a smartphone android connection to a Wi-Fi and download textnow will allow. I got a tracfone to replace my landline and mostly I use it to check in on my kids or for them to reach me.
I turned off the data and I barely ise the text feature and yet somehow I ran out of both text and data minutes but I have plenty of voice minutes.
More than what I was supposed to get. I signed up for the 1 uear plan with voice, text and mb data. I now have no data or text, but I have minutes in voice, and my kids call every day to check in when they get home from school. How is that possible? This company is so messed up. I bought 2 phones. Took 7 days to get the first running then 3 days and over 7 hours to activate the second. Never did get all my mins. I would like to just add mins. Dont text or use data. Its great just add it to your phone It doesnt add days to your service Good post…..

Cell Phone Closeup By seanmcmenemy Tracfone is a prepaid, no-contract cell phone service provider. With Tracfone service, you pay for how much you use the phone, and you have to buy prepaid minutes to put on the phone before you can use it.
Texting with Tracfone is very reasonable, and we are going to share exactly how it works, and how much it will cost you. Before we get to the cost, we must explain that texting charges are different for Tracfone's newer, Android powered smartphones.
We will share below how much texting will cost on the smartphones as well as regular Tracfone devices. Sometimes pictures can cost more, especially if they are larger images. And remember that you get deducted for every text you send or receive. What about Android phones? How much does texting cost on a Tracfone smartphone? This is a very straightforward answer, because texts are already separated from calling and data on the smartphones.
Texting on a Smartphone costs 1 text sent or received Sending a photo deducts from your data based on the size of the photo So with a smartphone, each text deducts one text from your 'text pool'. At this time, here is no way to just buy texts, so if you run out you will have to buy another prepaid minute card. Some users have experienced problems sending photos on smartphones.
This may be due to these users leaving their data turned off which is usually a good idea, because it keeps apps from using data. Data is used when sending pictures. If you have more questions about the smartphones from Tracfone, check out our Android vs non-Android comparison , that covers many of the differences. Texting with Tracfone is very reasonable, although if you send thousands of texts per month, you may want to look for an unlimited plan.
