WARNING: They do NOT have Wifi calling!

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.
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.

Fark Tello!

They steal your balance and tell you AFTER they take it.

Not customer friendly.

Keep getting "Please enter a valid email"
Hi SkyKing02,

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.

Can I wait couple months before activating this sim card? My service with another provider expires in 61 days.
Quote from xxjeffdoggxx :
Are you going to actually answer any questions? This is the reason I left Boost because of their terrible customer service. It is almost impossible to get a hold of anyone.
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?
Hi all,

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!

Why won't Boost mobile recognize international dual SIM phones or any international bought phones?

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

Is this an online-only offer or you can get this in-store as well?

Or is it possible to order online and then pickup sim in the store?

Hi talljulie,

Also, this offer will be running for some time. Since you still have until August on your current mobile provider you can wait until July to take advantage of this offer.

When is this promotion ending?
Hi sahilp1983,

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.

It's really crazy that (a) the email issue is still going on and (b) that your suggestion doesn't take any accountability for the ongoing issue(s) with your website (email issue, checkout errors, etc.) or provide any sort of reassurance whatsoever, implying that this is the customer's fault rather than your team's, and (c) your solution is basically to have the customer perform a rain dance followed by the Hokey Pokey.

I'm personally still waiting for an answer to the question I asked on page 1 of this thread - and all I'm asking is for you to corroborate information that's literally on your own website.



You may be right. [trustpilot.com]

I've done the same. H2O, Red Pocket, Net10, now debating going back to Red Pocket or jumping in on Boost. I think I could get by on 2 or 3GB, but having 5GB is nice just in case. If you can commit to one for a year it's nice to not have to switch so often.
I like the flexibility. Especially if I see a really good deal, I can just port out of my current carrier. I may one day settle down, but it would have to be a really good carrier and a really good deal.

On the AT&T plan they do activate it as it ships.

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.
