Mine is a 5. This might be good for Angie, she really likes her old LG phone. I was thinking about Straight Talk for her since she'd like to keep her phone while she'd also like to save some money.

If it's 4 or 4s, you can use it with Tracfone's BYOP service if it's in Verizon's database already. If it has a 4G/LTE radio in it (iPhone 5), you probably can't activate it on Tracfone. The big sticking point is it has to be a phone that was once used on a Verizon "postpaid" plan. http://tracfonewireless.com/byop/ BYOP gives you triple minutes, triple texts, and triple data. For example, if you buy a $20 / 60 minute pin card, on a BYOP phone you'd get 180 minutes of talk time, 180 text messages, and 180 MB of data. Lately I've been able to get the 200 minute cards for $20 (normally $40), so for $20 I get 600 minutes and 600 texts, and 90 days added to my expiration date. I don't use data on my flip phone, so the data just accumulates towards the day that I might swap my service over to a smart phone.
