two year extension

[LGester]

I didn't know they offered this. It's a bad value, though. I was excited until I saw the price, $170, for time alone, so $85 a year. Buying in bulk is almost always was smart, but not this, unless I'm missing something here.

That's not sold by TF.

If you have TF branded phone, you can get the 365 extra service days add-on in the cart under more for your device for $49.99.

Just checkout with something like the $5 text or $10 1 GB data add-on.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS:

* Buyer provides number to extend

So, you give them your phone number, and they buy days on your phone.

If they did it with $49.99 add ons, there would be a good profit margin and you'd get 730 days, not 720. But that wouldn't work with most BYOPS.

If they did it with $19.99 cards, there would be no profit after eBay fees, unless they really are a qualified retailer and they're making money on the discount TF gives retailers on the airtime. And they wouldn't want to advertise the 480/960/1440 minutes, because there would be no way of knowing which of the three the buyer would see.

They might do that too.
Nobody is going to complain if they buy 720 days and get 730 days plus 1000 texts instead.

And if fraud is involved... TF goes after YOU!

That's a good thing! EBay disputes are almost always and in some cases, instantly decided in the buyer's favor; contrast that with the "horrible" customer service experiences posted here with Tracfone problems.

I've accumulated some points, but never used them. Can this be bought with points? All I know is to use points to buy a phone one gets a "code" based on how many points one wants to convert and then applies the code at checkout.

No only with a credit or debit card. And I think Paypal.

In additions to phones you can buy the smartphone plans and basic plans and add-ons with TF reward points but not the in-the-cart "More for your device" $49.99 365 extra service days add-on.

You may get your money back from eBay, but Tracfone can and will remove the offending airtime from your account.

I've read of cases when TF removed the units/days added by a shady seller and suddenly their phones were deactivated due to empty buckets/days. Big inconvenience even if they eventually got a refund from Ebay.
