ETA: Subject references remote not required and implies an easy unlock process. It was in January when I first took advantage of this promo. However, as of mid-March, the Moto servers many of the unlock code sellers have been using, have gone off-line - with no clear indication as to if/when they will be back up. So proceed with caution.
----------------
On-line, the promo is for $399, but in-store promo is $199 with port-in. My store required that I add insurance ($8/mo) and they required the $40 plan (vs. the $25 cheapest plan). As soon as I left the store, I called 611 and they removed the insurance (refunded the $8 as credit to next month) and said I could downgrade to the $25/mo plan in about 3-4 weeks (it was too recently activated to be changed).
I was able to source an eBay supplier of unlock codes, and despite many having hit a wall in this regard on the MEP 2022, the 2023 is was unlocked with a code I received in <5 min.
Downside: Boost stores do not allow buyers remorse returns. You buy it, it's yours. And short of a defective product, they will not accept returns. But to get a $600+ phone for $199, it was worth the gamble - and it paid off.
Call your closest store(s) and ask if they still have inventory of the MEP 2023. If they do, confirm that they're still honoring the $199 promo that started in May 2023. Each store I called said they would honor the promo, but only one store had any stock.
I wasn't able to reach that seller. However, I just got this link from the eBay seller who was waiting for the moto servers to return. I've sent him a message asking if that means my code is coming, or if I should use that link. I'd try it if I wasn't waiting on him.

The IMEI from boost mobile shouldn't start with this according to the site "35216810"
I just heard back from seller. He said that the link is for 8-digit unlock codes which are 2022 and older. The server for the newer phones is still off-line. So waiting is the only option.

u r misleading people when u say:

better to be truthful. and say:
unlocking this phone will be a challenge and is NOT guaranteed

To be fair, when I started this thread and purchased my original 2023 from Boost, it was just that easy. First unlocker I found on eBay provided the code. However, since then, you are correct. I will go back and see if I can't edit it.
