Do you offer a 12 month Straight Talk card? Or can I buy two 6 month cards to make a year of service?

You can actually purchase a 12 month card, they go for around 495 dollars on their website but I've heard them rumored go around 445 dollars on other places.

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.

I have always had a TRACFONE. There is hardly anywhere that I have not been able to use my phone. I think they use the same towers that everyone uses. If you don't talk very much, this would be a good plan. You would have one year of service. You would get 400 minutes. When you buy a TRACFONE, some will double your minutes and some will triple the minutes that you buy. You never lose any service time or the minutes you buy. You have to watch at the end of the year and buy another card "before" your year of service runs out. You will keep your minutes. If you were to have to buy another phone for some reason, all of you minutes and time will roll over to the new phone. Now, if you want to have a better camera, "more mega pixels", you will have to buy one of the more expensive cameras. You will have invested $100 +- for the service and minutes plus whatever you spend on the phone. For one year that's all you will spend. Better than $60 a month. :) After your first year, you will only have the expense of a new card. :) Hope this helps

AT&T; will give you a new sim card. You can buy a SIM card for other services, like StraightTalk for $15.

I do believe straight talk has improved to allow Verizon customers to use their phones with their service now. I know a few people who have carried over their Verizon phones to straight talk. As long as they take SIM cards. Check their website. And I have a SIM card I will sell for $9.99 I paid for it plus $4.99 s&h.;

There's no triple minute card. any minute your buy are tripled. There's two things you need to remember. Your service date(either 90 days, or 1 year) and how many minutes you have. Run out of minutes, you can't text, talk, use data, run out of service time, you also can't do any of that, and you lose any minute your had. You need service time no matter what. Even if you have 1000 minutes left, if you run out of time, it's gone. So I go with the year card so I only have to remember once a year, and not worry about it. Or if you have a lot of minutes left, in the plans section of the website that's a keep your phone active thing that adds time more not minutes.

When I purchased the phone I also purchased minutes to go with it and used it when activating. If any minutes were included, it was probably only a small amount. I would recommend purchasing minutes also. You can purchase a 60 minute card for about $20 and you get double minutes with this phone. (So you actually get 120 minutes.)

You are not locked in for 2 years. Keep in mind that this a data plan phone. You do not have to pay for a set plan per month, but can opt for a pay-as-you-go (or use) as you text,etc (at least with mine). Note: Depending on your carrier of choice, you need to buy the Convoy to match the carrier. I purchased a reconditioned one (for half the price) from a Amazon dealer over a year ago and it has worked out just great. (I purchased mine to fill out the remaining contract period rather than spend $250+ for a new one.) Wayne K.

Louise, did you buy this phone? I think it's a good buy. Once you bought this phone it comes with the 400 minutes already. You don't have to buy any more minutes for one year. Then if your Mom needs more minutes the second year, then she can buy it either at amazon or tracfone.com -- Gloria

You can do it online at straighttalkBYOP.com or by calling them. You will also need a minutes card purchased from Walmart

Yes. I use Straight Talk for a carrier. They offer a variety of cards. By the way, I love the phone.

They sure do! I've had three Tracfones and purchased several one year cards with 400 minutes of service. The second phone came with double minutes and the current phone is a triple minute device that provides 1200 minutes with the one year card. My service is now good until October, 2014 with 3278 minutes available.

No, you don't pay a monthly fee- I usually buy minutes for 3 months at a time and what I don't use roll over. It is possible to buy minutes for a whole year but I don't always use my phone very much so the 3 month deal works for me.

The one that I purchased is a one-year subscription. However, I believe both one and two-year subscription plans are available.

It means if you buy the $20 90 days card, or the $100 year card, it works out to be roughly $7 a month. There's no actual "plan" for $7 a month.

You don't need the one year service card. You can buy the phone and activate it without any airtime card. You'll get a service date of 90 days and 20 complimentary minutes, standard on every Tracfone. Then you just buy what you want, buy from the many options available. Tracfone.com has different airtime cards to choose from. And the Value Plan has 4 options for either purchasing minutes or just purchasing 30 days of service. Yes you can buy just the phone but there is no 'triple minutes card'. Triple minutes is a feature of the phone, not the airtime cards.
