TracFone My Flip 2 4G LTE Prepaid Flip Phone (Locked) – Black – 4GB – Sim Card Included – CDMA (Renewed)

Works
Called from a land line gave the automated screener the imei number had also bought a $29.99 prepaid card read that number told me to turn the phone off and reboot . I was done

Difficult to use. Keeps disconnecting from the network.
Screen has way too many options, and the most needed ones are not on the first screen. You can change this with difficulty but the need to reset to factory defaults frequently makes this a pain.This disconnects from the network about once a week, and is nearly impossible to get reconnected. It is Tracfone, being used on the Tracfone network, but can’t seem to stay connected. It works fine for a few days, then refuses to take calls or let you get to voicemail. Granted, we’re in a low cell phone connection area, but we do get one bar and it works fine on that for a while, then gives up.I don’t want to spend another 4 hours on my other phone with Tracfone support trying to get it to work again. It took a factory reset to get it to work again last time, which wipes out all of the data, and you can’t save it ahead of time, so you have to hand enter the contacts again. The interface to enter contacts switches back to predictive with every entry instead of staying at Abc, so entry is difficult and you have to switch it to Abc with every entry.This is the only basic phone available to low end users that can’t do a smart phone with their TracFone data plan. So sending it back isn’t an option.

overall a solid C: s’ok, although you will drop all attempts to connect to the internet
So I bought this refurb as future backup for my current similar version that i bought new but is a bit out of shape, because the Alcatel Tracfone providers stopped providing the free flip phone option when you replace your complimentary safe-link/life-link phone. So when the Alcatel TracFone Free Service Providers lost the Nokia Gift Phone Contract, I needed a new phone. I originally bought this one on sale NEW for less than $20 and overall it worked out great because it also had a flip phone style and large number pad that many people like. As it’s no secret that prior to my injury during the sept 11, 2001 period in which many persons unfortunately did die, a lot of money was stolen before the failed abduction before the injury. However, the government in kind recognition of my as fortunately survived critical combat injuries as a civilian gentlewoman investigator on behalf of main federal and world health as a lawyerSurgeongeneticistMDPhdJD, despite myself(JJ) being a Swedish celebrity, and proud USA citizen, frequently credited under aL, most popularly as since 1995 or so, for the popular Versace Ads and Angels campaign for the Catholic church under VS that has been super popular encouraging fans everywhere to begin great wardrobe and life choices with appropriate lovely underLayers worlwide (the DisneyWish/MakeAWish-VS-fashionWeek-type-Event-Trunkshows are legendary for inclusivity of nontraditional types walking side by side with classic nordic beauties as myself and others in the greatest show on earth!) in addition to federal underwriting these wonderful programmes to boost morale, they also made sure that many world citizens in the USA and Europe had access to basic humane services including the free phones and service you may have seen advertised locally for seniors, veterans and injured parties. And the wonder of these types of social services don’t stop there! This has been a great phone. I hope they manage to keep the price below $20NEW so people can continue to purchase if they choose the flip-phone style option. But the refurb looks good although I won’t need to turn it on as my old one is still working. Overall a great type of phone although no, you won’t be able to connect to the internet, they all drop for some reason and google assistant and facebook apps seem unsuccessful in trying to fix this issue with these flip phones, so that’s the hitch that might be the deal breaker with a flip phone, but if like most people over 30, you like a phone that’s just mainly suitable for calls and lite texts and a few photos, this is definitely worth looking into. Basically despite the flaws, it’s still pretty ok as far as simple usage goes! Although if you want something a bit prettier, Nokia still has a version of the flip phone available on Amazon for under $150dollarsUSA.Still, not bad overall a solid C!;or 3.125Stars!
