Prepaid Cell Phones: Promo Codes and Deals

Tracfone is currently offering a refurbished LG225 with Double Minutes for Life (every time you add a minutes card you will receive double the face value of the card) AND they are giving you a 60 minute card.

When you activate the phone and add the 60 minute card, you will actually get 120 minutes.

The phone ($39.99) is refurbished but don’t let that scare you, this is still a great deal. The DMFL card costs $50 (currently $24.99), and a 60 minute card usually costs $19.99. That’s a very real savings of $64.98.

Virgin Mobile is frequently willing to offer a phone for free with the purchase of a minutes card. This has always impressed me because it’s rare to see other companies whom are willing to offer a phone for free without a contract, much less for a simple $20 purchase. People don’t want to be sinking their cash in their phone, they want to be buying minutes!

The phone offered for free frequently changes. Currently they are listing the Aloha ($9.99) and the Marbl ($9.99) as free. For the Aloha and Marbl, you simply pay the $9.99 and they ship the phone to you for free with ground shipping and no activation charge. Once you activate, they apply $9.99 in airtime to your account.

In the past VM used to allow you to add a $20 card to your account, and the currently promoted phone. This way the card was not locked to the phone. They haven’t done this in a year or more, so I’m doubting we will ever see that again.

If you don’t like to Aloha or Marbl, you can always just order it and another phone. Keep the one you choose as a backup to the phone you really wanted to order. Just activate your account with the Aloha/Marbl, and than call in to change over to the phone you really wanted. The minutes will transfer and you’ll have a bonus backup phone, aye?

When you need to add money to your prepaid cell phone, the first thing most people consider is stopping by a 7-11 or other convenience store – or by calling their prepaid provider directly and paying with a credit/debit card.

However, he best place to buy your top up cards  is online. If you purchase your cards online, you can usually get a 7-10% discount off face value. You also don’t need to pay shipping or sales tax with most websites, so you are getting a real 7-10% off your minutes.

The latest promo code from your provider can also be used when adding the minutes to your account, so you are not only getting a discount on your minutes, your also getting extra minutes for free. This is the best way to top up, and these codes can be found right here on prepaidphonecodes.com

A Boost Mobile Blackberry has never been released, but that does not mean that you can not use a blackberry if you have BM.

The reason for them never offering the sought after, addicting RIM product is that it just wouldn’t make since for them. Their most expensive phone is $299, and I can tell you that most of Boost’s customers are not buying that – imagine what would happen if they offered a $649 phone!

So yes, you can use your new blackberry bold 9000, curve 8450i or 8330, pearl, or any Sprint/Nextel RIM product.

All you need to do to is unlock your phone, or use a phone from Nextel and insert your SIM card.

Cabaaam! Presto! Your now addicted to RIM and Boostin!

It’s been rumored from time to time that there will be a blackberry sold by Boost, but I really don’t see that ever happening as the price is not reasonable for those wanting a less expensive cell phone plan.

Welcome to prepaid phone codes. I have a lot of experience with prepaid cell phones, I have worked at two of the most popular prepaid providers in the United States over the last 3 years.

I was also a contributor at another wildly popular prepaid blog for the last year until I decided to leave due to the lack of integrity in their posting practices. I will not name the site, but I would like to welcome you all here!
