What does triple minutes for life mean? And is there a monthly billing requirement?

there is no monthly billing requirement. triple minutes means that for the life of the tracphone any minutes you add will be tripled.

No monthly billing required, however, if you don't use the minutes in 30days you must add minutes and time monthly. The triple minutes work for life (I have had mine for over year and am up to over 450 minutes. You get triple minutes but not triple days. Other than than that all is good. I select the $20.00 offering as you get 90 days and that works for me. Not a big minute user.good luck,Jim Paskell

No monthly bill, until you put it on a credit card on their website otherwise get a card to add minutes when needed. then its auto deduct each month. Triple minutes means what ever denomination on minutes you put on card it triples. ie: 60 minute card = 180 minutes. It's a good way to go if you don't use often.

It stated on the package, 'double minutes for life'. I didnt know how that worked but i purchased a 120 minute card at Wallmart and when I entered the pin it in fact show as 240 minutes.

As I understand it (and I normally live in England, so only use my tracfone while in the States), is that triple minutes trebles the amount of airtime paid for, and 'for life' means that any air time bought in future will be trebled automatically. However, other users may correct me.

TracFone activation was no charge. You get a few free minutes (20, I think) automatically, but I recommend buying a phone card and adding it right away. A 60-minute card will get you 180 minutes from TracFone on this "triple minutes" phone. There are also plenty of "bonus" codes out there that can score you a few extra minutes when adding a card (just search the Net for 'bonus codes Tracfone').

You can add minutes as you go or enroll it in a monthly plan i jus add when I run out

With the 5 Tracfones in our family, we buy the year card, it is usually cheaper than buying a monthly card. On some phones we get double minutes for life and the newer ones we get triple minutes for life. The minutes do roll over to the next year. You do need to add minutes once a year.

Normally the battery comes in the phone. As to minutes,go on line and pick how many minutes you need and buy them from tracfone. Look for double and triple minutes. Then choose your payment plan--Could be billed to you visa monthly and double or triple your minutes automatically.

If you decide to use Tracfone, make sure you buy one of their phones that comes with TRIPLE minutes. According to Consumer Reports, It's an excellent deal! Go to www.tracfone.com to find out if it works in your area (it probably does). The customer service from Tracfone SUCKS but the TRIPLE minutes are still a great deal if you talk or text. It makes no sense to buy a tracfone to go on the internet!!!

You have to buy minutes when they run out or when your time runs out. For example: I always buy the card that loads 400 minutes (which triples to 1200) card with 365 days of service. It's the best deal. Before one of those runs out you have to reload. I don't use my phone excessively so that card lasts me the full year before I have to reload. Hope this helps.Deb

If you have the Trac Phone plan and the triple minutes that come with the plan you can download the app for Trac Phone my account through Google play. The app will provide you with how much time and days you have left and how many words or text you have also. I hope this answers some of your questions.I believe that the text coming in is not charged to the phones account only to the person sending it.

Triple minutes is just shorthand for triple minutes for life: same thing. And what it means is any minutes you buy are tripled (IF you have TMFLife from the start).

I was wondering about this as well so chatted with the sales team and they said you get one free lifetime membership. Here's the rundown of what they said:

I don't know. I use the Easy Minutes where I get 200 minutes automatically added per month for about $16. I had an old flip phone and transfered my minutes over from that. I would think the cards would work though.

I bought this for my Dad also. It will be for Xmas. My understanding with this phone is that you just buy the minutes.This particular model also has double minutes built in so when you purchase more minutes and load them,it automatically doubles them. There is no service contract
