It appears 2 lines with 2GB shared data on Verizon postpaid is $75 + tax, minus any discounts.

Verizon Prepaid 2 lines 1 GB each is $60 + tax. $70 + tax for 6GB each.

Oops, my mistake. Everything you outlined worked great for the OP.

While it is true that you may need new TF Verizon SIM cards ( depending their age ) , just updating the IMEI of the new phones to match the current SIM cards might be sufficient to obtain VoLTE. Do...

I assume that you, or another owner could easily obtain a new / different phone number , so not a problem. (?)

Just send a message thru Boom ! support to release your phone line for porting out, maybe the day before. Did this recently, porting to TF.

The yearly minutes/text are the same: 1200 , RP data per year is 6GB, twice that of TF. But RP Data is doled out @500

GB per month. So during time frames of increased usage, TF could be more...

Unless you are opposed to TracFone, the cost probably matches RP with recent 1 year $40 (even $50 ones ) cards on ebay - and you would

get MMS support on ATT. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks, makes sense.

The “ could not activate cellular data” problem was solved by a newer SIM card with my iPhone 6 about 17 months ago.

I can’t see how Tracfone is really the culprit with the VM issues. I think...

Understandable.....and true

True as well, and yes it is their business how they handle it

You’re welcome. I did this with my mom’s phone recently. Her service was already on ATT, so the transfer process was instantaneous.

All of her previous balances were added to the eBay tracfone...

Yeah, I plan to keep the phone on tracfone regardless.

I had more than 24 months of service, so no need to buy a plan every month.

So perhaps that means it’s not eligible for unlocking? ...

Thanks for sharing this, meetoo88.

I have an iPhone 7 that will have been on tracfone service for 1 year in late December. I added a $15 card in January, required purchase. None

since then.....

- I would check the G6 IMEI on tracfone for comparability with ATT - if it will work ( I think it should ) , proceed.

- Add the eBay ATT sim number to your account under the “Add Device” category...

Ditto with iPhone.

I know it’s easier said than done, but perhaps ask some neighbors what carrier they use - perhaps that would shed some light on this dilemma.

The coverage maps from ATT, Verizon show solid signal...

An artifact of history, hpham. Nice.

If you don't use a lot of voice minutes, an American Roaming Pin might work - I purchased one a few years ago while in Colorado backpacking. Seems like it was $15 for 1 year, around 120-150...

A new SIM card eliminated the need for an APN profile instillation on my, then, iPhone 6 in July of 2018. Data worked great, no extra profile.
