Galaxy is reduced to $49 and Celero to $59 for me on the $35/month Unlimited plan. Motorola Moto G 5G is reduced to $69. Thanks OP, gonna keep checking for the Moto Stylus 5G to get reduced.

Been with them ~1.5 years now. Last time they had this deal in Jan 2023, I couldn't replicate it.

Thanks OP!!

I just wanted to share that I found the link under my account...when I clicked the upgrade link, i had to get to the point of viewing all of the phones, then sort by price low to high.

Once I had done that, it was there and I ordered.

I am 11 months into the $99 / year 1GB plan

HTH,

Been on $15/5gb since 6 months ago, mine says 299 for A23. Phone detail page says "290 off", but when i click Continue, it fails with "Unable to process your request".

I ordered A23 5G for $9.99 + tax + FREE Shipping. Received it a week ago, and I called up their customer care the very same day to activate the phone. Great smartphone, for the price!

While speaking to them, the rep confirmed that this is only for accounts that are 9+ months old. This is locked to Boost for the initial 12 months.

NB: No active service is needed for unlocking after a year, even though they say otherwise in their unlocking policy. However, it needs to be activated first and it's IMEI should show up in your account to be eligible for unlocking.

I hope and wish there was a way to get the unlock code for this phone from eBay or other sites; but no one has the codes for A23 5G on Boost Mobile!

Has anyone been able to find a way to unlock A23 5G before 1 year?
I've been trying, but grossly unsuccessful so far!

Even if you cancel Boost service after a month or two, phone will unlock ?

People are reporting mixed results. Boost may have fixed this gap. Metro also has (or used to have) this loophole.

So, my comment (above) may have been outdated. Or, take it with a grain of salt.
