I Wish I’d Gone With Tracfone

This post brought to you by TracFone. All opinions are 100% mine.

Long ago I had a Tracfone and I loved it, but it didn’t have all of the features I wanted in a phone.  That is no longer true.  Now Tracfone offers so many features that I don’t know why everyone isn’t carrying one. I have a friend who purchased Tracfones for every memeber of her family, and keeps them all in minutes for about the same monthly price as I pay for my “big name” carrier. She even has a Smart Phone and every one in her family of 4 has texting capabilities as well. Furthermore with Tracfone you can reach over 60 international destinations for the same price as domestic coverage! Since we live on the border between the U.S. and Canada my big name carrier sometimes tags me as roaming when I am in my own backyard.

You don’t have to believe me though, listen to what these real TracFone customers have to say about their coverage:

You know, the primary reason I went with the “big name carrier” I did was because we live on a tiny island in Puget Sound, and only that one carrier promised reliable coverage for our locale — and offered the international plan so I don’t get roaming charges when I walk from room to room in my house.  Now I learn that Tracfone provides those same features at a fraction of the cost.

Unless I am on vacation I rarely use my cell phone anyway.  It doesn’t make sense to pay a big monthly bill for minutes I will never use.  Tracphone would let me buy minutes as I need them.  A lot of people don’t like pay-as-you-go phones because if you let your minutes expire, your phone number expires, too, but Tracfaone has a fix for that, too.  For only $119.00 (less than two months coverage on my curent cell phone) I can buy 800 minutes, activate my Tracfone for an entire year (the number won’t expire if I run out of minutes) and receive double minutes for the life of my Tracfone.

I bet you’re thinking, “yeah, but what kind of phone will I get?”  I could counter with, what kind of phone would you like?  For just $29.99 Tracfone offers the most popular phones packed with features like camera/video recorder, web access, app capabilities, mp3 player, and full QWERTY keyboards.  They even have smart phones!  Don’t take my word for it, visit tracfone.com and check it out.  As soon as my current contract expires I am going to become one of those real TracFone customers!
