What is the best pay as you go Tracfone for standby hours. Also with good speaker for hard of hearing person?

It wouldn't be this model of phone. I think there are newer and better choices out there for you. Hope this helps.

The speaker phone is pretty good, sounds clear and the mic is sensitive enough. The interface with android is also good; you can switch to phone if you don't want the conversation public, then it'll go right back to the music when you hang up.

This would be a good choice. LCD display is bigger than most and the number buttons are large and easy to use. The drawbacks are the volume control for the handset isn't very effective and produces an annoying "hum" at maximum volume. The audio assist feature improves the audio, but is not as pronounced as it could be.

I have had a TracFone for over 5 years now. My remaining minutes have always accumulated and carried over into the new time period. Just be sure to add minutes and time before your time period runs out.

No, It will not work for Tracfone. They do allow byod and you can use a Moto G that is an unlocked retail or a Verizon prepaid after 6 mos w/activation.

I use my phone with the NET10 pay as you go service. I don't really like all the bells and whistles on most phones, I don't even use my phone to text. It costs me 30 dollars for 60 days of service and 300 minutes. I don't use it much so the minutes really add up. I am very pleased with this phone.

Ten minutes. This is enough time to functionally test the cell phone (by dialing another phone) and then to purchase more minutes through the cell phone or by dialing TracFone and purchasing minutes (credit/debit card number needed). Personally, I've found the 60minute/90das plan to be the most economical - it costs about $7.33 per month for service days. If you talk on your cellphone a lot, you might want the 400minute/365day plan. It's up to you based on your anticipated phone usage.

You buy minutes as you need them and no monthly plan is needed unless you want one. You can buy as little as $10 at a time or more if you want to. As far as minutes go, it works pretty much the same way as any other Tracfone except that the talk, text and data minutes are deducted separately. So if you text, the minutes will come off your text minutes only. Triple minutes on this phone makes a big difference.

CDMA, I have this Tracphone. You may have to request it since they use verizon towers for it (may cost tracfone more to use than gsm) it gets better signal than gsm at least in my area.

The Solavei service is paid on a monthly basis. For your needs, I would recommend a service that has prepaid minutes. I believe T Mobile offers 1000 minutes that are good for one year.

Hi Joanne, I have found that with my tracphone, I can run out of minutes and leave it that way for a very long time, but to answer your question about purchasing minutes: I have found that one 450 minute card tripled will last me about two months and I use it for work related calls. I just try and use the free stuff on it in order to save. hope this helps, if not I will try to respond a lil more clearer.

Actually, WalMart sells tracphone and straight talk, but the tracphone part is getting pretty small and the straight talk bigger. As for the difference,- same phone, just run on different companys. They have different SIM cards and only run on the Straight talk or Tracphone, but not both. Pick your plan, adding time when you run out of days or mins. With Tracphone works best for me ( and the cheapest of the two if you are not a heavy user of the phone.) Great phone, but there is always a newer model out every month or so, and these phones seem to be discontinued. I love mine.

I had an AT&T; phone before and it was bad. The speaker option on this phone is much better. It is not really loud like on a desk phone, but for a handset it is not bad. I think there is a an option to do speaker on the base phone, but I have not used it yet and I am not sure how good it is.

We are running a TracFone 50% Sale thru January. A good time to purchase several. Online only.

I am hard of hearing. I have hearing aids. I would recommend this phone to anyone. Besides speaker volume, you can turn on the speaker which increases the sound. Excellent phone.
