3. I have used Tracfone since 2004

Customer service is not super but for what I use it for it and the cost it is great. I get a years airtime and about 400 minutes for $99. They throw in a phone at their website,I pay $6.71 a month autopay to keep it active in years I have roll over minutes and don't want to add any more. ie last Feb I had 1000 minutes accumulated so I did not add any minutes just kept the phone active.

I got an updated Tracfone LG smart phone, minutes, year service, 3G, double minutes on HGTV for $99 last spring to try to learn it. It is still gathering dust cause new technology is a chore for me. My old tracfone is first generation digital but it is easy to use and texts. Not sure how much longer that technology will be supported.

Never had a problem with service just some frustrations when it was misplaced once and my Dad lost his and they wouldn't shut that one down and move the remaining minutes to a new phone. Not sure if that is still their policy.
