I just called Boost , their customer service barely spoke English
got transferred to the cancelation department
the woman named Amanda told me that this is the price and the device is prepaid and I will not be charged if I don't use the device
If I want to use the device then I can buy a plan from their website.

I hope this helps

Quote from charlesf718 :
The only people scaring everyone with the $60 charge is the eBay resellers trying to make enough fake accounts to buy more before they sold out. They do it often on Slickdeals telling fellow SDers that the item is sold out so they can stock up. Happened to me with the Samsung TV $100 deal on Amazon @4am and other deals
Those cheap SDers are trying to scare people to cancel/return orders so that it will back to stock and they can buy more to resell using a bot script to grab every single stock as soon as possible.

Quote from rohithx920 :
Can you provide more details on what config did you change?
Once you connect to device's wifi, go to HTTP://mobile.hotspot and then from that dashboard:

network settings -> APN -> Add a new APN suitable for your network (you can get APN settings from Google). Once you save the APN settings, make it default APN. Now, the service will disconnect and you need to click on 'Home" in the dashboard and there will be option to "Connect" and click on that.

I did this through a laptop by connecting through a USB cable (not connecting to device's wifi). You can do the same as well.

Hope this helps.

What kind of plan needed on this hotspot after unlock?
Once, your device is unlocked, you can use any SIM which supports the bands mentioned in the device and has WiFi hotspot data.

If you want to go with new boostmobile plan, then I think this is the one someone was suggesting in other thread: https://deals.boostmobile.com/myp...iliate-jsm

Quote from ThriftyShop3177 :
It's quite small. Not oversized at all.
About the same width as my iPhone 12 mini, and shorter in length.
This deal's 4400 mAh hotspot used as a powerbank vs my 5200 mAh powerbank.

it's 50% bigger with less capacity, if you're buying it just as a powerbank.
then again, for $1, sure. LMAO

First thing you are exploiting and using something that was not supposed to do and on top of that you also know that. Then still what confirmation you want from others? U know and god knows. Before doing and recommending anything shit like this always think if everyone does same thing then what would happen. In this pandemic everyone is trying to survive and you shit heads are exploiting here causing somebody to lose their business. If thats how you want to survive then better to beg.

Can anyone share unlock listing and whether it worked for you?
I bought two codes from this seller [ebay.com] and unlocked both of my device without any issues. Process is much easier than I thought. Took less than 5 minutes to unlock both.

So i got my order yesterday, charged both of them but brought one with me to see how good of a power bank this actually is. So far I think I'm concerned that this doesn't hold a charge very well, was at 88% fairly quickly. As a hot spot these only do 802.11 g or n which... I'm not sure what I was expecting but if I wanted a Hotspot I'd be looking for something a bit faster. As I have not activated either yet, I'll check that out another day.

Very true. For $1 its a good deal, but as a battery and as a hotspot it sucks at both. Although I did buy 4. Wink

You need to change from 2.4 ghz to 5 ghz in the setting to use 802.11ac.

and what sims work in this once unlocked?
I can't get my Visible sim card to work. I assume it's attached to my phone. You probably will need a brand new sim card from any GSM carriers with mobile hotspot data plan. [metrobyt-mobile.com]
