Giving away your minutes should be simple because they are loaded on the SIMM card. Just install the simm card into another Net10 compatible TRACPONE phone.

Just drive through the hood and find someone holding one of these:

The whole “swapping sim cards” is a great idea in theory, but in practice, not so much.

While on Net10, I bought a new Motorola phone (flip top) to replace an older non-flip Moto phone.

I did everything right according to what I had heard, but the new phone just would not recognize the old SIM.

Ended up having to call them and go through about 25 minutes of typing in #9%%%253xYzyadayadayadayada... or whatever gobbledygook they call it

Having had to travel to all corners of the country for many years, I found that Verizon gave me the best coverage everywhere nationwide. I’m not sure about T-Mobile in that regard. Don’t think it would be worth the six bucks a month to find out.
