Four Ways to Find Your Carrier

  • Reboot your phone. The screen should display the carrier's name as it powers back on.
  • If your phone does not display a carrier name, you may have an unlocked device. You can search online to determine if your device is GSM or CDMA capable.
  • Refer to your phone's manual or contact your previous service provider to find out which network your phone is/was using.
  • If your service was active, there are some free online tools to help find your carrier by entering your phone number.        

What does "Keep me logged in" mean?

When Tracfone.com "remembers" you, it saves you a step: you won't have to type your Email each time you visit. Some websites will also remember your password, but to protect your privacy Tracfone.com will only remember your Email .

How does "Keep me logged in" work?

Tracfone.com uses a "cookie" to remember your Email . Cookies are very small files that are placed on your computer by most sites you visit. They can keep track of things you are interested in and what sites you have visited. They help web retailers remember what you may have placed in your shopping cart the last time you were there. Cookies can be erased, either manually or through software. Erasing your Tracfone.com cookies, would prevent your Email from being saved from that point forward.

Should I use "Keep me logged in"?

Cookies from Tracfone contain no personally identifiable information. When Tracfone.com "remembers" you, it is really remembering that your computer is associated with a particular Email . Remembering Emails and passwords for a number of different websites can be a challenge. Many people rely on "Remember Me" or 3rd party software to manage their log-in information. For others, it is not a problem.  They just remember all the User IDs and passwords they use. You should make the choice that suits you best, confident that your personal information is safe and secure on Tracfone.com.
