A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Ask Mr. Gremelin C139 Tracfone ..............

Is anyone familiar with using C139 Tracfone ????

It says to hold the button 5-10 seconds to start.

How long do you hole the button to end the conversation?

dodge

Usually to end a conversation you just hit the button once. To turn the phone on and off you usually hold it down for a few seconds.

We used to have Tracfone but we'd never go back to it. It's EXPENSIVE! You can get Net10 phones at Walmart---they are a sister company of Tracfone, but instead of $20 for 60 minutes you get 300 minutes for $30. Works out to be a much better deal. We switched to Net10 after Cindy and my brother both told us about them.

Thanks Loz,

Will have to check that out..

I always preferred TMobile to Go (their actual prepaid lines), decent service, cheap on minutes...

As for hanging up, usually you just click the red button :P

Thanks all......

We actually just use one for ememgency.Like if I go shopping or he goes somewhere.
We have the phone .
Must riding motorcycle...Hint for Jiffymouse..LOL

PS ......

Another question..Is the Volume higher in different models?
Or are they all the same>
How about distance?

We had Tracfone while in WA state at Bills. When we weren't in our local call area we were roaming using 2 minutes for every minute we were on the phone. With Net10 you can be anywhere or call anywhere in the country and not roam. I like that.

Tmobile doesn't have good service around here in my rural area.....Net10 uses all cell phone towers so there is almost always a signal. I just find it funny that it's a sister company of Tracfone---so they are competing with themselves.

Mom used to have Tracfone too and she just switched to Net10. She couldn't believe how much cheaper it was. And they have decent phones. If you go on their website they even have camera phones with internet access.

Thanks ..

Good information.. We only use for ememgencys here ..But I am going to go read up on Net 10.
