Wow, I feel like a total newb even though I've been with trac for more than a decade!
I just earned 70 points, LoL!![]()
Hi ,
sorry if this is already discussed.
Can I activate one of these TotalByVerizon or straight talk iphones sold at walmart with Tracfone service 10$ or 15$ plans.
The goal is to get them unlocked.
Will I have to call customer service to unlock it or will be unlocked automatically.
I was reading somewhere that these have to be rebranded to TF and then activated.
Thank you for all you do.
Just now saw this and unfortunately, it ends today.

I don't know if TotalbyVerizon, which used to be known as Total Wireless, still behaves like it did.
But usually with Straight talk and some of the other Tracfone sister companies you can do that. Go to chat and ask the chat rep to rebrand the Straight talk phone to Tracfone service before activating it. I like to also mention that I would like to be able to unlock it when eligible.
If for some reason the phone fails to rebrand correctly and does not unlock smoothly 60 days after activation, you could call the TF unlocking department and still try to get it unlocked. People have done that. Hopefully though it will work right. Some people don't even bother asking a rep to rebrand it and it rebrands automatically but I think it's better to ask for it to kind of up the chances that it gets done.
The normal Tracfone unlocking procedure depends if phone is iPhone or Android.
If Android, on 60th day you can go to the unlocking site and enter information and this will send 2 unlock codes to your email.
You have to enter them into the phone.
If iPhone, it should unlock automatically on the 60th day.
You can text unlock to 611611 from your device to see what day it will be eligible to unlock.
Back in stock:
iPhone 11 64GB Black - Reconditioned, $165
gone now darn
Finally in stock. It's a decent mid-range phone, but other carriers have this phone on sale for about ~$50 including one month plan at Boost and Metro. I'll wait for this and the A53 to drop more. My AAL rewards have successfully vested, but not much interesting phones. Was hoping a new-in-box iPhone SE2 would drop to $99/129, but might just grab an extra refurb one and another A51 as backup.
One more price drop I noticed:
TCL A3 $19.99 (was $39.99) Plan Required
https://www.tracfone.com/phone/alcatel-tcl-a3-prepaid
Price increase:
Moto G 5G 2022 $219.99 (was $99.99 BF + Weekend)
Blast from the past.
TF has added a reconditioned LG rebel 4 for $9.99

An older phone (2018 w/oreo).
