I don't think this is a great deal when the iphone 11 can be had for as low as $60 from Metro PCS, that's with 1 month service included and you wait 6 months instead of 12 for unlocking.

I was able to add the phone and $15 plan by going to phone buy page selecting color and clicking check availability. Then before choosing a plan open new tab and BYOP (https://my.boostmobile.com/shop/buy/plans/) with $15 plan and click Choose Plan. Total (before tax) in cart $214.99.

Got my phone today. I messed up but it worked out in my favor.

When I checked out, I had managed to do the $15 plan but my browser auto filled a my phone number instead of the family members phone number I planned to port.

When the phone arrived, I attempted activation and got an error for a the number not being recognized. Had a lightbulb moment and knew that I had screwed up the order. No worries I thought, I'll just call to change it.

Got through to CS pretty quickly (4.30 pm ET). They explained that I'd need to cancel this "account" and go buy a new sim. I was a bit miffed, but I knew it was my mistake. They generously refunded me the $15 (plus tax) of service credits back to my CC and I headed out to buy a sim at Walmart.

At Walmart there was a 3mo $15/mo sim activation pack for $14.88. Score!! iPhone 12 for $200 plus tax, and 3 months of service for $15. Pretty solid deal.

Phone is now activated and working as expected. Port from Cricket FWIW.
Can you please check if it works with Tmobile or ATT or their mvno?

Yes it doesn't matter if it's the black AT&T sim or white T-mobile sim as long as it's Boost it will work in the phone.

Thanks. I am looking to use direct Tmobile or ATT instead of Boost or maybe one of their MVNO. At times if phone is locked to an MVNO, then it can work fine for their parent company so just wanted to check that. Thanks

Oh. MVNO sims can work in their parent's phones, But not the other way around. So you would only be able to use Boost sim in Tmobile phone

It's not always true. I have xfinity locked iPhone and it doesn't work with verizon. Not sure how are the things with boost. I had really bad experience with boost mobile 3 months back so not looking to stay with boost and instead will move to Tmobile directly instead of MVNO

This goes exactly with what Fancyleopard said. You would not be able to use a parent's sim in an MVNO, but an Xfinity sim would work in a Verizon locked phone.

Are these unlockable with the "white" sims available for less than 20 bucks?
I believe they're beginning to ship with the black sims now but regardless if you get the white sim it should still unlock in 12 months

Ugh, I thought that was a contact number, not the number for porting. I'm going to have the same problem.

Ok guys I went to a Boost Mobile store to get some clarity on the Iphone 12. My teen son currently have boost mobile with an Iphone 8plus and can get this phone as an upgrade for 199. I want to get it but give it to him as a birthday present in a couple of months. I was told that the minute I get the iphone 12 it have to be activated because the 8plus will immediately be deactivated. I found that to be odd considering the 12 will not come with a sims card in it right?
What is the best way to deal with this ?

But it will be locked without 12 months of Boost, right?
Yes. Subject to the usual conditions. Boost should be fine in this case for 12 months.
