possibly the wrong thread, but i figure someone here may know the answer. if i bought a tracphone a few months ago, but never activated it, can i use it with verizon now, right away? or they still have to be unlocked?
In English you need to activate the service on that phone for 60 days. If after the rules went into effect you'll qualify for the 60 day unlock, though you might as well get a free 8k worth of points by creating a tracfone account and adding my referral code within 14 days of activating service, enough for 4 months of free phone service, though if you have no use for it, either sell it(by gifting it and charging 10-$20 per month) or gift it to someone who has use for it.
Find a 90 day plan which i think is the cheapest at 15-20$, and make the money back after the points post by finding someone on a tracfone plan and gifting them the points and charge them if you like, to at least cover the cost of your phone plan to get it unlocked. so basically your waiting 60 days but didn't pay anything. Good Luck, hope that helps.
For new accounts activated with Tracfone, use this referral code for 8,000 points(worth 4 months of service free). Must be activated within 2 weeks of activating service/making an account.
