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!)
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.

They steal your balance and tell you AFTER they take it.
Not customer friendly.
You can try a few different things when this happens.
- Try using a different browser
- Use your desktop instead of mobile
- Ensure all your ad blockers are turned off
- Check to make sure your email inbox is not full
If none of these work, please DM me and I will help you further.
My question is how long do you have to activate this SIM card? can I wait three or six months to activate it? or is it activated as soon as you purchase it?
If you choose to get a new number from Boost, these SIM cards will come pre-activated. This means that 2-3 days after shipping, your SIM card will be activated. This makes the activation process simpler for customers. If you choose to port your number you can activate when you need it.
Also, this offer will be running for some time. If you still have time left on your current mobile provider you will still have time to take advantage of this deal.
Hope this helps!
Their activation process checks the IMEI, does NOT recognize my Infinix Smart 6, my old Tmobile Note 4.
They will SIM LOCK your phone meaning it will NOT accept any other SIM.. even if it came factory unlocked. For that reason alone, IM NOT PLAYING. I'm out a few bucks buying a Boost SIM due to this
Or is it possible to order online and then pickup sim in the store?

There is no specific end date on this promo at the moment, so I am not able to give you a definite answer. It will be running for a good amount of time and if you need to wait a month or so for you service with another carrier to end, you will be able to take advantage of this promo.
I am sorry you are having issues with your shipment.
If you DM me with some more information, I can send it to my team and we can work on figuring out what happened.
Or is it possible to order online and then pickup sim in the store?
This is an online offer for new customers only and can not be picked up in store.
I am confirming with our team here but won't have an answer for this question until tomorrow. Thank you for your patience!

Also to Note: Boost Mobile's AT&T deal allows them to have the AT&T 310-410 network which is important as there was an AT&T OTA server update that the server now looks for your AT&T banded phone to be on the 310-410 network to continue to receive updates.
So if you have a AT&T branded phone, pop this Boost AT&T sim into it and as long as it activates successfully wait for 2 minutes after startup and then check for a OTA update and if there is one it will start downloading.
Any AT&T Branded phone on Cricket will no longer receive updates due to Cricket being 310-170.
