Do Motorola TracFones work in every state?

[~Ivy~]

Ok, well I just bought a used Motorola TracFone off ebay a few days ago and everytime I go to the website to activate it, I type in all the info about it but when I get to the zip code part it tells me there is no lines avaliable in that area and to try again in 24 hours. Well, that was yesterday and I just tried again and got the same result. I live in the state of Vermont. (it sucks here lol) so yeah i was just wondering if anybody knows if i'll ever be able to use it here...

I don't think that you'll be able to. I had a TracFone once, and even when I was in the same state (Ohio), it wouldn't work when I was in Cleveland, and I only live a couple of hours away from Cleveland. I once also had a TracFone when I went on a vacation in California, and it didn't work whatsoever. TracFones generally work in the area that they're activated at, so I'd advise that you go to the Dollar General or Wal-Mart and buy a TracFone there.
