These are screenshots from the process of testing bonus codes.

Tracfone Web Site

Please go through this whole page to familiarize yourself with the proceedure before starting.

If you want to clean everything from your system to make sure you get accurate results for the codes you test, see my page for the Free Internet Window Washer HERE.

I test each code twice using this procedure. Each time I exit my browser and run the Free Internet Window Washer prior to testing.

If the code you entered is not valid for use with the card you chose you will see this message at the top of the page.

If the code is valid this is the page you will see.

The best procedure is to also clear your cookies and temp files on your computer when doing code tests. If you get an invalid code two times in a row, the next time it may just go to the next page without giving the invalid code message, even though the code is not going to process. It it does this and you proceed with the airtime purchase, you many not get any bonus minutes.

If you get a valid code indication the first time after clearing your system, then that is the best indication we can have for validity.

The next page is where you enter your payment information if you want to continue with the purchase.

Newer codes usually give the amount of bonus minutes that is posted on the forums or by other users. Codes can get recycled, so older codes sometimes will give a different amount than the code originally gave. Try to verify on one of the forums that someone has used the code recently to help ensure accuracy.

Codes can be "expired" and still work. If you do not get your bonus minutes and you call Tracfone, they may tell you the code is expired. There is no use telling them that someone else just used it etc. etc. If it is on their list as expired then they will not award you the bonus. If you do not get your bonus codes you can always call Tracfone and beg. Be prepared with several codes if you have to call. If you give them a valid one they will usually give you the bonus for that particular code.

If you have a code that gives 300 minutes and one that gives 200 minutes. You can try the one for 300 and if it doesn't give the correct minutes then you can call Tracfone and tell them you didn't get your correct bonus minutes. When they ask what code you used give them the other one for 200 minutes. If it is valid they will correct your transaction using it.
