Why can't you use promo codes when adding minutes to smart phones?

Anybody know the reason why Trackphone doesn't allow these bonus codes to work on Android phones?

the fact that tracfone doesn't allow promo codes on smartphones is why i am sticking with a standard tracfone. those free promo code minutes really add up!!!!

I am about to switch from a triple minute LG 840G to an Ultimate 2. I got a year card and 400 minutes. I am planning on adding the card to my old phone first so I can get triple minutes and use a bonus code for 300 minutes, then transfer to my Ultimate 2. With what I currently have I should end up with over 2000 minutes, texts and 2GB of data. That is the only way I can use codes. I will miss using them on the android phone. I hope they change their minds and let us use them on the androids.

I just had the same surprise as you all. Tracfone said we get triple min. and in 3 different categories and that's why the android cant use a promo code. Hmmmm, doesn't seem fair.

I've been thinking about this, too, and it still doesn't make sense to me. I have an LG800G, and it gets triple minutes for life. It's not a smartphone, so bonus minutes work just fine.

I get that, for smartphones, Tracfone splits up minutes into three different categories. I appreciate that. However, the way that's it's split up really isn't all that great. I mean, the texts might be okay unless you text a lot, but the data is so abysmally low, that I can't see myself using it unless I had no other choice.

Besides, you typically don't get a whole hell of a lot of bonus minutes, and they don't get multiplied. You just get the face value. So what's the big deal? If people spend all this money to buy a nice smartphone, why not just let them have the bonus minutes?

There's also the principle of it. I'm not cool with the idea of selling a card that has bonus minutes that only SOME customers can get the benefit of.
