Successful SIM Activation Story

[RodMyers]

The TracFone sim kit is a bargain,  3 sim cards for $1 USD,

^This is the way to do it. You can get an annual plan with a bank of minutes, text, and data for $50. I ended up paying $60 for a kit that includes this plan and a T-Mobile compatible SIM card, but checking each of the networks before attaching a plan seems like a wise thing to do.

A few other things if you go with Tracfone:

1. I wouldn't bother with trying to activate online or using the old Android phone method. The specific customer service number I dialed is 800-378-9575 and was done in less than 5 minutes.
   
2. I was unable to pick my phone number and didn't know what it was until Tracfone texted it to me after activation. The ZIP code you enter determines your area code, but that's about it.
   
3. I activated wifi calling on Tracfone's website, but have not used it. You should get a text telling you how to do this once service is activated.
   

do you remember the link & procedure to enable wifi calling?
