TracFone Wireless review: Phone service

I have paid up service through April with Tracfone wireless phone network, After going through several days of online chats with Tracfone agents about the problem, no service, no solution was provided. I still have no service that I have paid for. I keep getting the run-around with Tracfone. After Tracfone said they were having trouble with their towers in my area, days went by and I filed a report with the FCC for help with the network/tower issues. Tracfone sent an email response asking me to call them (again), which I cannot since I have no service. I reply to their emails but they don't reply to me. They just repeat instructions for me to call them and discuss it, which I cannot and have reminded them I do not have service and that is the problem.

I have since read numerous complaints about them, detailing the same excuses they gave me. I would like a refund of the last two purchases of service plans that I made thinking I was at the end date of previous service, which I wasn't. Now, Tracfone has limited me to emergency calls only, which they did immediately after the FCC report was filed. I think Tracfone is doing this to punish me after filing the report for help. It follows the pattern of other customers who complained and had their carryover days wiped out, or similar hostile actions from Tracfone for complaining. Since I have emergency calls only, Tracfone probably says I have service. But it is not the service I paid for, 60 days Unlimited Talk and Text.
