If you hear a recorded message asking you to enter a Visa or MasterCard number to complete the call, that generally means that your phone was unable to get a signal from its own network and tried to roam on another network with which your provider does not have a roaming agreement.
If you dialed 1 + area code + number and the call did not go through, the likely causes are: (1) You dialed the wrong number, (2) Although it is in a different state, the number you are dialing is a local call, and you live in an area that requires that you not dial '1' on local calls, or (3) Your phone is out of order.
The number that you can call Tracfone is the following1-800-867-7183. Hope this helps!
The international and local area dialing codes would all be the same, but your long distance company of choice would have to provide you with their direct or operator assisted dialing protocols.
Call the Motorola Company, not Tracfone. The number is in your phone's manual, the operator can reset your password for you.
You can still make domestic calls when international dialing is disabled.
To call Switzerland from Australia, dial the international dialing prefix (0011), then the country code (41), then the area code, and then the local number.
NO, tracfone can only be used in USA! That is what customer service just told me
Out of area is when you get called by a telemarketing company that has not setup their call-back number in their system (intentionally) or when someone calls you from some sort of internet to phone dialing service whereby there is no number to call back to.
call and switch to straight talk
Beginning in 2001, in preparation for the 878 overlay area code (which serves the same geographic territory as the 412 and 724 area codes combined), all local calls in area codes 412, 724, and 878 require 10-digit dialing.
Because it is not using the home tower. In my zip code (CDMA market), Verizon and US Cellular are the two providers. My Tracfone should be using Verizon towers, but it is using the US Cellular towers and showing roaming on the phone in the home area. Whenever the home towers are not being used, the Tracfone will show roaming on a CDMA phone. GSM phones are a different story.
Yes, with a tracfone, the system automatically deducts minutes when you receive or make a call, it also deducts minutes when you text message
