Question
I want to purchase a Motorola260g Tracfone. But, it isn't available in my zip code, but the town next to mine. Should I take a chance and activate it with the zip code that's available? I am afraid that will not get any service.

Answer
Hello Natalie,

You will need to contact Tracfone they probably do not sell the phones in your area because there is no service from that company in your area. If you want to find out if the company provides service in your area you can contact them directly. If the company does offer service in your area you can purchase the phone and travel to the town over to purchase the phone. Please do not make a rash decision before purchasing the phone as many places do not give refunds on electronics. You can enter your zip code on the following link to find out if your zip code has coverage http://www.tracfone.com/cellular_coverage.jsp?nextPage=cellular_coverage.jsp&tas... you can also contact them directly at 1-800-867-7183 I hope that I have been of help to you if you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your question.
