Use one tab for the '99 3 month deal. Then open up another tab. Start from the boost Mobile filter out renewed. Find the iPhone XR and pick the $15 month plan and check out. You should have two tabs open, one with the $99 original poster deal and one with the $15 a month plan for $25. Refresh now you can checkout with the phone and plan for $49 total.
Repeat as of 2/10 glitch has been fixed.

Regarding auto-activation / autopay - if you ported in a number, you are probably safe.
If you chose to get a new number, then your service will activate automatically and you will need to chat/call to cancel autopay. (It seems like chat is easier than calling)

Note that one has a 3rd party battery, as I got the warning, and the other has battery health of 83%. I'm guessing they replace the battery if health is less than 80%.
I don't think there was a color option; both phones I got are black.
I set up both phones on wi-fi before inserting a sim card and checked the sim status in the settings. Then I inserted a non-Boost sim to test. I tested with Cricket and Mint sims and both worked fine.
The bodies of each had minor scuffs and scratches, with the screens in very good condition. Screens also appeared to be original, as the "true tone" option is available on both. Face ID worked fine on both as well.
They came in plain white boxes with a Boost sticker on top and had an OEM usb-a lightning cable with a generic charging brick. (if it's not an OEM cable, it sure looks and feels like one)
$100 is a killer deal for a used, unlocked iPhone Xr, and this one includes 3 months of coverage.

"By clicking 'Buy Now' or 'Pay with PayPal', you agree to pay the amount due today. Your service will not begin until your SIM is activated.

If choose the new number option during the order process, they will activate automatically within a day or two.
I don't know what the time limit is, but I know from personal experience that it's at least three weeks.

Also, Best Buy has Boost 3-month 5GB service for $15 and Boost 3-month unlimited for $37 but they are for new customers only. 5GB [bestbuy.com] - Unlimited [bestbuy.com]
Does anyone know if one could buy this iPhone deal, use it for 3 months, then let the service expire, possibly wait a month or two, then activate with one of the cards from Best Buy? (I wouldn't care about phone number changes)
Thanks

Also did you do the trick mentioned above of choosing "port in a number" during the order process so that you could delay activation?Edit: I am dumb, you're the one who mentioned the trickJoin The Conversation
