When you activate, the SIM uses its $150 credit to purchase 1 year of service at the discounted rate of $150.
If you fail to activate in the time frame, which is anywhere from 3-6 months, they will charge you full price (an additional $150) and add it to the SIM cards balance for when/if you ever activate it.
No matter what, you are purchasing 1 year of service and the SIM card they send will forever have 1 year of prepaid service sitting on it. Whether you activate in 1 day or 3 years it will still work, the only difference is whether you pay $150 or $300 for that SIM.
Wasted so much time and energy when I bit on a Slick Deal last year and they overcharged me $180 which took 10+ calls and 2 months to get back (They initially issued it as credit to my account and I had to fight even more to get it back to my card)

Honestly, this is probably the reason Boost seems to primarily ship T-Mobile SIMs -- T-Mobile doesn't keep a whitelist, so potentially less compatibility issues.
At&t is finicky about what phones will be allowed on their network and have full functionality. Anything not on their whitelist is lucky to get activated, yet alone have everything working properly.

AT&T MVNO unlimited is QCI9, the lowest of the four tiers of AT&T QCI.
Maybe it is not T-mobile deprioritization but network coverage or device issues.
I have had same issue on different devices.
Yes, we can do at&t instead of the sent T mobile sim. Just go to a boost mobile store ask for a boost at&t (black sim) they will sell for 9.99 and after that I just went home went to boost mobile activation and entered iccid of the new boost at&t sim and entered my old Carrier account and pin and within 5-10min my account activated. Remember to choose bring ur own number (port in) don't ask for new number because they will activate the Sim they ship. Even if you need new number just say bring ur own number and later u can request for new number in activation page.
UPDATE: I chatted with customer service and was told my service was activated on AT&T.

Is there any way to convert this art sim to an eSIM ? Or will it be T-Mobile always with esim ?
I don't think you could convert physical At&t sim to esim if you received T-Mobile SIM from boost. However, to get around this I think first you can activate the physical sim which will get you on AT&T and then contact customer service later to convert it to esim(I think once you activate on one service it can't be changed)
