Phone question

I just ordered a new phone, can I just swap the sim card from the old to the new when I get it or do I need to take it down to T Mobile?

If they are the same size you can do it yourself.

Speaking of phones, Tracfone has been impossible to access today for buy minutes. On line chat gave me a phone number to call for help. Duh.
I am out of minute! Brainiacs.

Time to move on - anyone know a good disposable cell phone - cheap, no frills, jut make freaking phone calls. Nothing else is needed.
After two hours searching the web for anything, I come away thinking googlin is worthless - never get anything you put in the search - just BS that has nothing to do with what I want.


i just told Frontier to hit the road Thursday for piss-poor service.
Now I'm stuck with nothing.

Tom ,Take a look at USMOBILE. The best tech service etc that I have ever encountered.Email answers in 10 minutes,phones less than 3 etc. There are multiple plans available. i.e. 1000 minutes talk ,300 texts /per month, the basic bill is $ 11.00 plus $2.00 for service and $2 for tax .for a total of $ 15.00. Can add minutes anytime during the month or change monthly prepaid plans . Almost any combination of text and talk you need . I think there are two carriers to choose from,tmobile and verizon maybe more. You have to buy a $4 simcard ,takes a couple of days by mail. I have had them for about 6 months and find them very,very satisfactory. I do not have their data plan so no details.
Must bring your own phone .

That's what I have. About $20 a month for what is for me a huge number of minutes. Includes texting with some limits I never come close to. There are cheaper plans, but I went for overkill given the low number of minutes I use.

Bought a cheap Moto G phone at Wal-Mart that was already set up for Consumer, just went online to select options, like number of minutes, and activate.
