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.

Can someone explain this deal to me? I currently on T-mobile with a XR. if I buy this phone, can I only pay $240 plus tax which includes one month of Boost after that the phone will not work anymore via Boost right? OR am I stuck in some sort of 12 month contract with them where I have to keep paying $40 a month? I plan to either transfer this phone to use on T-mobile or trade with Apple. I need 5G because I have had my XR for more than 4 years now and the battery is bad and there's almost no signal. Yesterday when I was inside a store, it was S0S the whole time Frown

It's prepaid. You can just stop paying after that first month. No contract.

You will not be able to use this phone with T-Mobile after the first month because it is locked to Boost. You can trade it in at the Apple store though.

While you are not committed to a 12 month contract, Boost does automatically put you on autopay, so you would need to cancel that or use a single use credit card to avoid the extra charges. Also, if you read though the thread, you will see that you can get it with a $15 plan instead of the $40.

It seems they have closed the loop hole to add the $15 plan.

Ok, thank you so much!

If I use paypal, how do I cancel the automatically charge? this will be my first time buying a phone plan. I'm under my parents but they no longer can afford new phones.

Unfortunately the $15 plan is not available in my area, I clicked and it leads me to the $40 or $60 plan.

Ok, I looked into this and it doesn't seem like a good deal for ME because I will be paying $259 with tax for this phone and it will work for a month, and then trade it with apple, they will give me about $300 credit to get iphone 13 (the 12 is the same price as the 13th) at $599.99. Dropping to $300 that I have to pay in difference, so basically I will be paying $540 for the 13th.
I can just trade my XS and I'll pay the differences of $439.00. This seems a bit more logical in my situation, I guess.

This would've been a deal if I'm able to use it with my current plan with my parents, otherwise it's another trade that will cost an extra $300 making this whole thing $540, plus going back and forth with Apple in apple store.

When did you order and when did you get cancellation? My $15 order still says In Progress.

Yikes, 51 pages of comments, reminds of the old days like back in 2000 of the black friday deal discussions.

Another update.Got mine last week with $15 plan.

Tried to order another one with $15 plan again over the weekend. A bit hard to get the $15 plan trick this time. Tried 5-6 times. Eventually got it. But got "Error" today Frown
So $15 loop might be fixed.

Edit: System shows "Error" instead of cancelled.

Did you get a refund when it got canceled? What does order status say now? Mine ordered on Wednesday still hasn't shipped but still says In Progress so not sure if it's canceled.
