Does anyone here know anything about Tracfone?

11. Thank you, that is good information to know.

Not for me so much, since I doubt I would qualify for a free phone. I'm not poor, I'm just cheap frugal. I simply don't want to pay a lot for a service I will rarely use, and I don't need or want a bunch of bells and whistles.

Anyway, I appreciate the information and I will definitely pass it on to anyone who might benefit from it.

After more research, I've decided I'll probably go with Consumer Cellular. There's a local store in my area if I need help from a live person, they offer a discount for AARP members (which I am), and they have very good deal on a "senior phone" with big buttons - which would be ideal for me, since my eyes ain't what they used to be. I figured out that it would cost about $10 a month - quite doable for me.

The biggest selling point for me is the fact that there is a brick and mortar location near where I live where I go if I need help.

Thank you again for being so helpful!
