Tracfone Wireless Family Plans

Tracfone wireless family plans will keep you from going nuts!

If you've got a large cell-phone-using family, a prepaid plan can make sense in terms of cost and minutes. But let's face it, having to remember when everyone's phone needs to be refilled can quickly turn into quite the hassle.




And, honestly, some of the standard cell phone plans are also an option here, because you can often add extra lines for about $10 a month each on top of the approximately $60 a month. So the average cost per person isn't all that much. But still, if you only really use the phones to stay in touch with each others whereabouts then there are some cheaper options such as one of the Tracfone wireless family plans.

How does it work?

In addition to just buying airtime, you can add a TracFone Value Plan for convenience.

50 Minutes Value Plan $9.99

Pretty much self-explanatory. For $10 a month, you get 50 minutes and 30 days of service added to your Tracfone. This compares well to a 60 minutes airtime card which normally costs $20. One year of using this plan will cost you $120 and give you 600 minutes. Again this compares pretty well with the one-year cards.

The recurring payments are made through your credit card or checking account.

Family Value Plan

The base cost is the same as the Value Plan: $9.99 for 50 minutes a month. Then you can designate additional Tracfones to receive 30 minutes a month for $5.99 a month for each addtional phone.

So a four-phone setup with one phone receiving 50 minutes and three phones receiving 30 minutes each a month would cost you abour $28 a month.

Still significantly cheaper than a standard cell phone contract, though, of course, you get far fewer minutes.

Lifeline Value Plan

$4.95 a month just to extend your service for an additional 30 days. Not really worth it unless due to some mixup you end up with having lots of minutes which are about to expire. Then if you're not sure how quickly you plan to use them up, this plan might be an option for you.

So . . .

Choosing one of the Tracfone wireless family plans could save you some hassle and keep your kids from bugging (begging?) you for airtime. And at least remove one of their excuses for not letting you know what they're up to.

See how you can get Wireless For Less than $9 a Month.
