Nokia 2285 Prepaid Phone (TracFone)

Summary: USA COVERAGE
Review: .
The phone come with 10 free units (20 if

you activate on line). You can also receive

100 free units by E-mail from Tracfone if

you *activate* your phone after a friend

(who already has her Tracfone) refers you

(she also receives 100 minutes). 120 units

out of the box is a good deal. If you don't

know anybody you can E-mail me, I'll make

sure you receive the $30.00 Tracfone deal.

My E-mail : [e-mail]

You can add units at Amazon or Tracfone.

One minute will take one unit if you phone

from your area map and two units if you

phone out of it (roaming) however local or

long distance are the same rate. If you want

to move, you can change your area code or

phone number (maximum four times a year)

by calling Tracfone. I'm in a digital area so

the sound is great, however I'm *not* in an

area with text messaging available. You can

set up your voice mail by calling your 2285

from another phone (save your units) and by

using # to set your code and voice greeting.

The phone always show the amount of units

and their expiration. Calls less than fifteen

seconds won't be charged. The activation is

easy but very long, you need to be on line

entering many codes on your phone. The

last step is to confirm the phone number.

Tracfone instructions provide a shortcut

but there is no way to find this information

on the 2285 model ... just click "confirm"

Both keypads and faceplates are easy to

change. I bought a lighter rapid charger

because the original was ... slow and heavy.

Any car charger is a rapid one by the way.

Summary: Great Phone + 100 FREE MINUTES
Review: Great and essential phone! If you really need a cell phone, especially in real emergencies, this is ideal. No contract, no credit check, no monthly fee. You can control the time and money!

You and I each can get 100 free airtime units ($30), by activating your phone **after receiving my referral**. Any TracFone user can do the referral, but I know great money-saving tips. If you want these tips, email me at [e-mail]. I will send you the referral and the tips right away with how to activate the phone. Don't delete the referral email before you get those 100 minutes. Have fun!

Summary: Pretty good phone for a pretty good price
Review: I bought a prepaid cellular Tracphone from Sam's Club a month ago and let me tell you this is definitely the way to go. I was moving from Wisconsin to Texas and needed a phone so I could keep in contact. I activated the phone in WI and in 15 minutes had an active TX area phone number. Then, while traveling I always had a good signal with no roaming the entire time! The reception was always excellent.

For $70 I got a brand new phone with 1-year activation and 120 minutes (10 minutes included + 10 additional minutes for online activation + 100 minute because of a email referral by a friend)! Also, the other thing I love is that phone displays the number of minutes left. It also includes voice mail, call waiting, caller ID. You can setup and access your voicemail from a regular phone and never use prepaid minutes. If you work it right you can get the cost down to 10 cents a minute and they always rollover as long as you're active. More importantly it's great for people like me who won't talk more then 60 min/month.

As far as the customer service, I've had no problems and can't relate to some of the bad reviews I've read. If you need 100-minute referral please email me at [e-mail]

Summary: 100 Free Minutes
Review: If you still haven't activated with Tracfone then email me for a referral. Even if you already have bought a phone (unless you bought it directly from Tracfone), you can get the minutes. You get 100 free minutes and I get 100 free minutes. A win/win situation. My email for referrals is [e-mail]. Please remove the upper case text within the address. I did this to avoid spam. Send me an email with the address you will be using when you sign up with Tracfone. This is how they track the free minutes.

Summary: Horrible Service from Tracfone
Review: One afternoon last week I discovered the cell phone number given to me a year ago had stopped working. Overnight I was unable to call the number from my land line and get messages or forward calls from home to the cell phone. Tracfone customer service blamed the carrier and did not resolve the problem after many many calls and complaints. They basically do not care if you have problems with their product. No one speaks english sufficiently enough to communicate with. After a week of not being able to use the phone to get voice mail or forward calls from home I was forced to throw it away. I would think long and hard before signing up with Tracfone. Buyer beware!

Summary: Pretty Nice
Review: This is a pretty good phone. You can get it cheaper at other stores. The phone is pretty loud and it has a good backlight. Also, if you respond to a refer a friend email and activate your phone online, you can get 100 minutes for free. If you need to be referred, contact me at [e-mail] I check my email several times a day so I should be able to give you a fast response.

Summary: Good phone for the price
Review: This phone is a good deal for the price that you pay. Best used for emergencies or limited use, as the minutes can be expensive. But best of all, there are no contracts! You also get FREE voicemail, caller ID and call waiting. You can also send and receive text messages, and even send messages via AOL IM!

If you buy/bought a phone, you can email me at: [e-mail] and I will send you a referral which will give you 100 FREE minutes. I'll also email you some tips on how to save minutes and get the most out of your phone.
