If you want to get cheated, ripped off, and treated badly, then TracFone is for you!
They refuse to block web access, email, or messaging, regardless of my requests. They have the buttons on their phone conveniently placed so that it's easy to hit a wrong button which you realize when you get the message that "X minutes have been deleted" from your account.
TracFone itself sends unsolicited messages and then charges for you to view them.
Unlocking a phone? Forget it. They won't do it, and a local shop said I shouldn't even try. TracFone does all kinds of things to make it impossible to unlock.
Therefore, I had to buy another phone when I changed over to another non-contract service.
All I can say is DON'T SPEND A MINUTE OR A DIME WITH THESE PEOPLE! 12987c4

| 2. Written by BobMac1547 on February 5, 2012 from san mateo, california, US For everyone who is fed up with TracFone, try PureTalk (www.puretalk.com) I'm paying $10/month for 101 minutes, no contract, and all the minutes rollover. They use the ATT network so they are everywhere. Customer service is in Georgia, USA, and they are terrific. I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop, but, at this point, I don't think there is any. If you decide to go with them, please use my name, Ken Schiff as a referral. I'll get some bonus minutes. If you need my number, email me at bobmac1547{at}gmain{dot}com. |
| 3. Written by marieb on February 5, 2012 from las vegas, nevada, US Every day I have to clear 5 to 23 spam messages from the phone. The phone is basically useless!! It constantly went off with this spam stuff - I turn it off now and just let it sit. Horrible purchase (& from HSN no less - good grief Colleen!!) |
| 4. Written by cathyn on January 6, 2012 from sealy, texas, US I know how you feel. We use tracfone because we don't use cell phones too much. When you call support it's always a foreigner! I have asked to speak to someone who speaks better English. They can't change (port) numbers from one phone to the other (they used to) I hate tracfone too. But they are the cheapest around that doesn't have a contract plan. |
