    @Tracfone Is that the executive resolutions team? If that's the regular support number that's the number that kept giving me the runaround.

    Landlines are scams for boomers. You can buy a Tracfone for $20 and pay $10/month and just leave the damn thing in your kitchen.

    @Tracfone I no longer have have cell phone reception because of the poor service from tracfone… I am left with emails for communication when I have wifi. So DM’s don’t work… by the way after 14 plus hours on a landline with many customer ‘service’ people and automated service over almost

    @Momma_JJ Go to Walmart and get tracfone wireless. It’s around $30 per line. There’s 3 of us and we never get close to using all the data since we’re on WiFi at home. It was $150 month with AT&T just for me!

    @VerizonNews Remember, Verizon also owns the largest prepaid carrier in TracFone (which owns Straight Talk and Total). It is not just Verizon customers without service.

    @Tekeee Get a roommate or get married, don't buy expensive coffee, don't pay for a $1000 iPhone, use Tracfone service ($15/month), buy a cheap used car instead of a new one. Buy groceries instead of eating out. I do all those things and I've been married over 30 years.

    @Verizon @TotalWireless @Tracfone I was overcharged $85 instead of $65 at an authorized Total Wireless store and later refused a refund despite confirmation of correct pricing. A BBB complaint has been filed. Requesting corporate review and resolution.

    @MelissaPetro31 @RedPillRabbit There are no mobile carriers that behave differently. The majority of "providers" are MVNOs (Mobile Virtual Network Operators) that license out use of the big 3 networks; AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon. And the biggest MVNOs are wholly owned by the big 3. Verizon bought Tracfone.

    ...is in control of all Internet correspondence and purchases, right down to blocking a Verizon transfer from Tracfone with a NPT malfunction.

    @Tracfone is so much garbage. They forcibly download Chinese apps on American devices - Putting Americans at risk. Physical risk as we saw with COVID 19 and vax tracking is an inherently obvious reason you wouldn't want that.

    @Tracfone tracfone is trying to get me to only talk to them on dm. They don't want the public know they are in trouble. They sold thousands of defective phones and now they are saying they never received the defective phones for replacement

    @naomibrockwell @AnthropicAI @OpenAI It sucks. But if you want a cheap solution, you can get a phone that comes w a yr tracfone plan for $30-$40 on qvc/hsn. Look for new user codes. It's a low-use plan, but more than enough time for this use. Also great when signing up for info but don't want to give your "real" #.

    @tracfone where are all my phone lines? They're just gone? I can't renew or buy data because you deleted all the phones from my account except one. And the customer service chat has had me waiting for hours.
