tracfone and simplyactivate

  • boodlemum

I have a question for Tracfone users or HSN mods:

 

Does simplyactivate take care of transferring your phone # and remaining balances from one tracfone to the new one?

 

If  not, what is the correct series of steps to activating the new phone, doing the transfers, and getting the 1200 promotional minutes?  If it’s all explained with the information that comes with the phone, you can just say so and I apologize. I haven’t received the phone yet, and am somewhat concerned reading all the reviews on the phone.

    Now that you mention it, I have never seen a Goldenseal bottle ( of any brand ) with a warning on the label.  But if you google it, it will tell you not to take Goldenseal for more than a couple weeks at a time, and the reasons why.

    Zanderchick, I’ve never seen a warning on other brands either.

    Hi , you can port your existing number to the new phone as well as transfer over any minutes that you have. We include a welcome guide with the phone with steps on how to do these things as well as how to activate the new phone.

    This is my second trac phone and did not have a porblem with the setup with my first phone. Granted I was just transferring a phone number. With this second phone I was able to setup the transfer of the old number and minutes but I’m trying to get my 1200 promo minutes.  Called trac phone and they said I needed a PIN number. I did not get one.  I caledl QVC and they said just read the package instructions, I had already done that.  I’m at a loss at what to do now because I really like this phone.  Getting very frustrated with the whole process.  Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    I have purchased the LG Tracfone for many years. HSN provides an informational sheet with the # to contact and activate. I have kept the same number and transferred minutes without a problem. I go to Tracfone site I have an account now on this site. I activate my phone within 10 minutes.

     

    Just make sure you read the instructions and follow them, very easy. Just bought the Today’s Special Yesterday and can’t wait to get it.

    No luck activating my phone.  Website just keeps saying try back in a few hours.  There was no info from HSN with my order regarding my PIN or activation instructions.  The HSN online chat just said that I should try again in 7 days, it "might be fixed".  Sounds like a fail to me.  Now I have personal info on the phone and I can’t activate it, and will have to pay to have it wiped in order to return it. Once again, shopping at HSN costs more money than it’s worth, I’m done trying to be a customer.  I’ll get the same phone, tripple minutes, and verizon up the road and my phone will be activated when I walk out the door.

    I just received my LG Trac fone on Wednesday.  I tried to activate it on Friday.  After many tries, both online and on the phone, I was finally able to activate it.

     

    Now I am checking on how to get your triple minutes for this phone, when I need to buy more airtime.  Can somebody please tell me how to do this.

     

    All I see is double minutes.

     

    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    I was able to activate and transfer my phone number and minutes, but my promo minutes and service time didn’t show up. I sent an SOS email to the simply wireless address as recommended by others. I hope they get back to me soon. I’m glad this community exists as all the other avenues I tried for assistance were fruitless. Why does HSN make it such a secret as to how to get assistance? Especially when it is for something you already paid for?

    does any one know how to get the minutes on your new trac phone when they went to trac phone to activite their phone and not simpleywireless

    I have tried and tried to activate this phone I received on the special from HSN. . I already have an old phone and I have decided I will keep it instead and return this new one. It is either out of my league or I am just plain stupid. I prefer not to think of myself this way but this phone and activation certainly has made me rethink my abilities. Totaly frustrated so I am opting to return the phone.

    Stay away from Tracfone bad service not a good company at all. I had gotten the triple minutes which was 180 minutes. I called December 27th they said i went over my three month of mbs. I have to wait till January or i can purchase a card for $15 which has 700 mbs. I did plus paid for my triple minutes which start in January of $19.99 guess what? I didnt get my 180mbs i have called four times with different excuses.Looking into another carrier. HSN bad mistake. Stay away from Tracfone.

    I want to port my existing number to the new phone and use the new promotional minutes. But I want to leave the minutes I already have on the old phone for my husband to use with his own number (from Verizon). Can that be done?  Thanks, Fran
