fyi - boostmobile unlocks after 12 months
YMMV, obviously, but I ordered two of these and both are unlocked. I have not yet activated the Boost lines that came with these.

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.
Metro deal requires porting over from another carrier, also need to go to store can't order online,and most stores add extra fees like activation/tax on original price, meanwhile this deal can be ordered online, includes 3 months of service, and you don't need to port

Today I was finally able to reach a chat agent to try and cancel service/turn off autopay and they said:

"Thank you for letting me know about your concern. For the mean time, we do not have any access to our customers account in removing your autopay. Please continue to check My.BoostMobile.com. It will be the best place to get the latest information and updates. We will let you know once the system is up again. For raising concerns or issues, please chat or call us back for further assistance. We will let you know once the system is up again. Thank you for your kind consideration"

This crazy that they won't answer the phone or do anything to help.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank BuckeyeSam

New Boost Mobile customers may not realize that Boost phone service is in many ways two separate companies. Customer service reps work for one of these two divisions, and do not have access or training to the other division's systems.

So, to help others out, let me try to summarize previous posts and information:

If you are on the original legacy system (T-Mobile MVNO), you can access your account at:
http://myaccount.boostmobile.com, or by calling 888-266-7848.

If you are the new system (mostly AT&T MVNO, but also some T-Mobile MVNO), you can access your account at:
http://id.boostmobile.com or by calling 833-502-6678.

It is this second system that is still mostly down, without a working customer service system for the past 13 days. As of now, the 800/833 number is still not accepting phone calls, and the customer service reps available via the online chat function cannot do much, since their systems are still down.

Regarding SIM cards:

If your full size SIM (credit card size, not the tiny actual SIM card) is Orange, it is for the T-Mobile network.

If your full size SIM (credit card size, not the tiny actual SIM card) is Black, it is for the AT&T network.

Yeah that is what I used, and I removed them from PayPal as an authorized auto payment. Hopefully that is enough, but I would like to get it removed from my Boost account as well.

That is nutty. A chat agent helped me turn off autopay in about 2-3 mins.

Wow, old school. Just on the first page I see talk of "chinese resistive tablets" and sightings of RedSolar and Yuugotserved, good times. Just need a Selma sighting and we're good.
Ah yes, who could forget Selma!

Recently or was that before the cyber security incident?

Seems like they actually are out. If you go on the Boost website even the iPhone XR renewed at full price is listed as out of stock.
