16. Is it true BOOST mobile locks the phone even we bring Unlocked? I read somewhere in comments. If this is the case, one will be stuck with Boost. Can some expert answer this?
Your sim card will automatically activate after 3-4 days of purchase. So there is no such thing about saving it for future use.
That may not be a problem for you, but it is for me and unfotunatley I only found it out after porting my number over on a 3 month plan ($30 from Best Buy last month, so not as good as this deal!)
I tried boost mobile trial a second time… and idk they lock you into autopay and I couldn't remove the payment card. Then they tried charging way before the trial was up for renewal. I asked customer service through phone because their chat support never works to remove it. They assured me they did but it still showed in my account…
My advice is virtual card to be safe. Also, unless they recently changed it - your plan activates right away after purchase unless your port in.
Pretty much have to port from carrier to carrier if you always want the best deal. Have gone from Mint (3 months 10GB/month for $30), to visible ($5 for first month with referral), to something like this. Rinse repeat. Slightly annoying, but save a decent enough amount of money doing so.

I did this last time around with the $.99 deal for one month on their expanded network, which is service on AT&T. It was good reception in my area, no issues with their service. I was even able to obtain my account number and porting pin by calling customer service.
Would be nice if their plans didn't jump from 5GB at $15 normal price to "unlimited" for $50. Maybe 10GB at $15? Mint wins, I guess. $5 is amazing for the first 3 months, but 5GB is unfortunately too limiting in 2022.

Unlimited Plan is $25/mo, paid yearly - or $30/mo paid quarterly.

Hard-capped data was this plan's only weakness outside the horrible website.
What an amazing response to Mint Mobile's recent $15/mo promotion! This is a smoking hot deal!
EDIT: Website has been updated. No 2G data after 5GB allotment.
