Question 1

when i buy 60 minutes,do i get 180 minutes ?

Accepted Answer

Yes, any minutes purchased then added to the account and that specific phone are tripled. 60 = 180, 200 = 600 etc. Also goes the same for texts and data tripled.

We bought the 1000 minutes card for that phone and received 3000 minutes, 3000 texts and 3000MB of data from it. (To be used within 1 year on that specific card.)

Some are confused with minutes, texts and data. Each are separate, (From the 1000 minute card example) meaning that you can send 3000 texts, use 3000MB data and still have 3000 minutes of talk time left to use.

Question 2

How do i get triple minutes for life with this LG Optimus tractfone.?

Accepted Answer

Hello  ;-)

It is a great phone that plays music very well.  The 3X minutes are automatically applied each time you put minutes on the card, whether automatically in an account on-line, or with a card you purchase from the store.  You need to take no additional actions, the 3X is applied.

I hope this helps.

Question 4

this is a gsm phone i was under the impression tracfone android phones only use verizon network?

Accepted Answer

This is a CDMA phone. I ordered one and spoke with newegg via both email and telephone, informing them that this was CDMA and not GSM, but they did not change the information in the listing. They offered to refund or exchange it, but since I only use it as an mp3 player, I kept it. The phone does indeed use the Verizon network, but after a couple of tries, I gave up trying to convince them to change the page to reflect that fact. Hopefully someone else will have better luck. You can check the listing for the same phone with other merchants to confirm what I am saying.  Hope this helps.

Question 5

can i transfer service and number from the tracfone service i already have?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can transfer your service.  I called and the customer service rep helped me do so.

Question 6

what zipcodes will this work in?

Accepted Answer

I have four of these phone that I gave my kids. They like them, and they find them easy to manager. I find it great for kids, but if you are looking for all of the features that are on the iPhone. This is not the phone for you. 
   I encourage you to try it, it is a cheap way to keep in touch.

Question 7

is this phone compatible in my area.   zip code 04973?

Accepted Answer

I have no idea if the LG Optimus Dynamic Tracfone is compatible in any other zip other than the one I am in. The best response to that question would probably come from Tracfone directly.

Question 8

Can I add the 600 minutes in text,data,and combine them with the 600 minutes on talk so that I have 1800 minutes in talking?

If you add a 600 minute card you get 1800 of each. They can not be combined

Question 9

How is the left over minutes will be transfer to the new phone?
If I have 300 minutes left over in the old phone is it going to be 300 for talk , 300 for text and 300 for date?

Accepted Answer

As I recall, you are correct...

300 minutes, 300 text and 300mb data... (In your example).

Plus when you buy airtime, all 3 are tripled with this phone.

Question 10

I am supposed to get triple minuets for life. How do I do this?

Accepted Answer

Yes, triple minutes for life.....It's automatic - when ever you add airtime, it's automatically tripled. A 90 minute card will credit 270 minutes to your account.
