Summary: Only good to be used at home and they are STEALING YOUR IDENTITY
Comment: The connection is good only at home. 20 miles away from home, you get connection only by LUCK. Do NOT depend on it.

To add airtime from Tracfone is extremely painful:

If add it from their website (most of time it ends up ERROR and ask you to call the service representative), the webpage asks a lot of unnecessary information, then sends hundreds digits you have to key in to your cell phone.

If add it thru calling their service representative, the representative will try to STEAL YOUR IDENTITY by ask you all unrelated information. Besides credit card and your cell phone ID, they ask:
* Name
* Address
* Other cell phone numbers
* Social Security Number!!!!!!!!!!!!!
* Birthday?????????????????

If you refuse to answer the question, they will argue that 'Our System Requires It'. Who cares about their system? I do care about my own IDENTITY SAFETY.

However, if you still want to jump into the trap, there is a way to beat their stealing:
***** Besides credit number and you cell phone ID, give them all FAKE information. ****

I tried the strategy, and it works

Summary: Avoid Tracfone
Comment: May rating would be 0 stars, but Amazon doesn't allow that option.
While it's convenient to have a pay-as-you-go phone plan, the service and equipment provided by Tracfone is abysmal!

I have had three Motorola phones that have not even lasted a year. Customer Service - no such thing. The solution for most issues is to sell you equipment. Most representatives speak, but do not understand English.

FYI - Net10 is the same company.

Summary: Love Tracfone
Comment: First of all, I am not a cell phone person. I only use mine for out going calls. I buy the yearly service from Tracfone, $96 for 400 minutes and a years service. BUT, before you order do a search on "Tracfone coupons" or "Tracfone promo codes". There is always a promo code for 200 free minutes out there. Now you have 600 minutes and a years service for $96 plus tax. You can always add minutes if you exceed the 600 minutes. Also if you don't use your 600 minutes during the year, the remaining minutes will carry over to the next year when you purchase another years contract. So, if your use your cell phone on a limited basis, I would recommended Tracfone. I have never had a dropped call or not been able to connect.

Summary: Never pass the airtime due date
Comment: If you do decide to buy this phone, never let the airtime due date pass. Every time you add minutes to the phone it adds a certain # of days to the expiration date of the minutes. I barely missed the date and it has been total chaos trying to reactivate the phone and buy airtime since. We've had to call customer service several times to try to get the phone working again. It's still not working at the time. Well, if your commited to not letting the expiration date pass, then I would say it is a good phone. If you don't need all the extra features like web access and things, I would considerate it a good, simple, easy-to- work-phone.

Summary: Tracfone C 139
Comment: I have a Motorola C 139 Tracfone which I bought for emergencies since I have a heart condition. I have found the phone to be reliable and sturdy. I dropped in on concrete twice and never phased it. I can hear better on the Motorola C 139 then I can on my land line house phone. I text message which is great because I'm partially deaf. It is basic phone, but for what I use it for, it is just what I need and at $6.66 dollars a month I pay for service, you can't get one any cheaper that works as good.
