Better than the $150 plan-only deal we have seen previously because $10 more gets you a usable phone. Phone has to be activated on Boost. After activation, Boost does not care what phone is used with this $150 plan. The Moto G Stylus 5G 2023 will unlock if your account is still active one year after phone activation.

Expect a T-Mobile sim. Buy a $10 At&t sim from Ebay if that network is preferred.

At the bottom of the page, they ask: Do you want to keep your existing phone number? ALWAYS select: "Yes. I will transfer it during activation." even if you want a new number.

Wiki from a previous deal that answers most questions should you not be familiar with Boost Mobile.

Q: What network does Boost Mobile use?
A:. Owner of Boost is Dish. They are trying to create their own network. That will take forever though. In the meanwhile, they are using both At&t and T-Mobile. For online deals, expect to receive a T-Mobile sim.

Q: Is there a trick to receive an At&t sim?
A: Although not likely to work, someone said entering 49619 as the zip code accomplishes this.
https://howardforums.com/showthre...st17259159

Q: If I receive a T-Mobile sim, can I use an already purchased At&t sim and activate the sim using this plan?
A: When ordering, check the box: "I will transfer it (existing number) during activation." Later on, log into your account activate this plan using the At&t sim .

Q: Where would I even get an At&t sim?
A: Not at big retailers like Amazon, Target, Walmart, or Best Buy. They all sell the T-Mobile one. You would need to go to a Boost retail store and asked them if they are willing to give or sell you an At&t sim.. Alternative is ebay. On ebay, search using something like the phrase: "This Will Give You Access To AT&T Network With This Sim Card By Boost Mobile".

Example. ebay item: 384858797184

Q: Should I pick: "Yes. I will transfer it during activation." OR "No. Give me a new number.?
A. Better to always select the the transfer option even if you want a new number as this delays activation. Boost will activate the sim if you select the new number option which means you lose service days while the sim is in transit. Also, should you wish to not use the sim Boost provided and use the At&t sim you acquired, you must use the At&t sim at time of activation. Boost cannot switch networks after activation.

Q: I want to port my number in but I still have a few months left with my other provider. Can I delay activation that long?
A: Because this deal includes a phone, the phone must be activated within 30 days of purchase.

Q: How will by package be delivered?
A: By UPS with no signature required.

Q: I received my sim from Boost. How do I tell if this is a T-Mobile or At&t sim?
A: T-Mobile sims come attached to a white or orange card whose ICCID number starts with 8901240 or 8901260. At&t sims come attached to a black card whose ICCID number starts with 8901410.

Q: I activated a T-Mobile sim but now I want to try the At&t one. Is it possible?
A: As I said before: directly NO. In order to switch networks after activation, you would have to port out, start a new account, port back in, and sign up for whatever plan is available at that moment.

Q: Can I get a new number now and then port in a different number sometime in the future after evaluating the service?
A: No.

Q: Boost sent me a T-Mobile sim as expected, but I did follow the instructions to select "Yes. I will transfer it during activation." when ordering. I also bought a Boost At&t sim. What do I do now?
A. Boost will have sent you via email instructions on how to access the account they created for you. You would need to first log into that account. Once logged in: on the top portion of the webpage, there should be wording that says something like: Your Line is Not Setup with a button nearby to click on to activate the sim. Click on the button and use the At&t sim. After the sim is activated, Boost will then give you the option of getting a new number or porting in your old number.

Q: I am not staying past 1 year. What do I need to do?
A. This deal from Boost actually consists of users buying 6 months at $25 per month and then getting 6 months for free. That should mean for month 13 if the user still has autopay enabled, Boost will charge $25 + tax each month until autopay is disabled. Since accounts with autopay disabled are normally charged $30 a month, I would suggest just leaving autopay enabled until the time comes to port out. Auto-pay settings can be found on their website and within the Boost One app.

If you plan on porting out, start the process at least a week before service ends.

Q: If after year 1, can I downgrade to a different, cheaper plan?
A: Log into your account maybe 10 or 11 months from now and see what options are available. I would suspect NO because the cheaper plans are usually for new users.

Q: I need the phone included in this Boost deal to be unlocked a year from now. How do I make sure my device gets unlocked?
A: Leave autopay enabled and pay the $25 + tax for month 13. Instead of using real money to pay for the 13th month, you could alternatively use any Boost coins that have been earned.

Q: Deal says new users only. How do I get around that?
A: Use an email address never associated with Boost.

Q: I am a active Boost user. Can I just switch to this plan easily?
A: No. You would need to port out and come back in with a new email address and account. Any unused Boost coins would be lost and if you have a Boost-locked phone, the 1 year service requirement to unlock it would be interrupted.

Q: What happens after I use 30gb for the month?
A: Throttle speed is 512kbps. This deal is more suited for those who almost never reach 30gb.

Q: I can get past the email check to place an order.
A: Disable ad-blocker, use a different browser, or go to the cart directly:
https://boostmobile.com/shop/buy/...:FS6Months

Q: What the heck is a Boost Coin?
A: Currency that can be used to pay off your Boost cellular service plan. Coins cannot be used to buy a phone. Five minutes of your time done everyday would yield about $11, $12, maybe $13+ (if you are lucky) a month off your bill. Less coins will be earned if there are glitches in the app. People who purchase this annual plan would not be able to use any of the coins earned until it is time to pay for year 2.

How to earn Boost Coins
1. Launch the Boost One app (log in if needed).
2. Spin wheel to see how many coins you win (99% time wheel lands on 5 coins).
3. Watch 5 video ads that last about 30 seconds each.
4. Set alarm on your phone for 24 hours later because that is earliest you can spin the next day.
5. Done for the day.

Q: What is the 9 month phone upgrade policy?
A: Boost usually allows users whose accounts are over 9 months old to buy one of the discounted subsidized phones you see on their website without purchasing a new line or upgrading their existing plan. Whether the 9 month upgrade rule will apply here is not known as Boost can make changes to their policies anytime they want. We will just have to wait and see.

Q: Is eSim supported on Boost Mobile?
A: eSim works only for newer Apple devices. Android not yet supported but planned for the future.

Q: Since I purchased a phone with the plan, am I required to use the phone a full year?
A: No. However you must activate the phone within 30 days of purchase. After activation is completed, you are free to do whatever you want with the Boost phone. If this account is still active 1 year from now, Boost will unlock the device.

Q: I do not see this deal advertised at Boost. How are people changing phones to add to the 1-year plan.
A: Official sale URL is:

h**ps://www.boostmobile.***/shop/buy/permalink/entry/?planId=DSHPUNL300M12&deviceId=SMA356UBL128&couponCode=HALFOFFONEYEAR&?intcid=HP:AF:Banner:A351/2OFFYEAR

By changing the deviceID, users can order a different phone provided you know the deviceID. Of course, the total pricing will be different depending on the phone. The Moto Edge+ 2023 will be $200 for just the phone. Add $200 to the $150 plan price, you will get $350.

Network depends on what sim Boost sends you. 99% of the time, users receive a T-Mobile sim. Those who want At&t have the option of buying a Boost At&t sim from Ebay for $10. When activating the plan: whatever network sim is used and what phone number is established on Boost at that time is final. There is no way to change network sim later on, nor is there a way of porting in a number afterwards.

Somebody previously asked Boost about unlocking a phone early since they paid for 1 year of service. Boost subsequently declined that request. No harm asking them again though.

For the $160 price which includes 1 year of service & a phone, the choices are either: the Motorola G Stylus 5G 2023, or the house brand Boost Celero 5G (non plus) 2024 made by Tinno.

I have been wanting to get out of Mint Mobile for 2 years.
Their price (mint mobile) is no longer hot deal.

Quote from ibuythingshere :
did mint mobile get more expensive? it seems to be the same price for a long time now
They've been able to promote the $15 a month but as someone else pointed out they have $20 fees that are other people don't have, and that $15 is technically an introductory rate that goes up to 25 once your first thing is up.

More than that though they have stopped doing a lot of the really exciting deal. I used to do buy three get three once a year and get 6 months of mint mobile. Now they only do the by three get three directly through mint Mobile so you can't buy a card

It was like e sim him only or something and it was very limited

Leaving Verizon for US Mobile, 5 lines total with 4 already ported to US Mobile with the primary line (mine) the only line left at Verizon while I wait for hardcopy bills to be mailed.

Tempting to jump on this deal instead of migrating my line to US Mobile for now, since I'd be getting a drastically discounted phone for what I anticipate paying at US Mobile after porting my line.

I'm assuming after 1 year (and unlock) I'd be able to use this phone on the GSM side of US Mobile - is that assumption correct?

Can anyone recommend a device from those available on the deal with at least 6Gb and expandable storage (not interested in the RAZR) ...any feedback on the Celero5G+ 2024 (Youtube reviews seem mixed).

if mint wants to be competitive on the deals front with boost they should occasionally offer under $175/year for unlimited and $130-140 for 15gb....and nix the fee. even then they offer less hotspot data, no att option and no app to get credits. heard someone in the $150/year boost thread mention they renewed the yearly unlimited plan for $40 after applying the credits.

Why need hardcopy bills?
Verizon would auto cancel the line when you port out.

F this deal and boost! I was all about it, I ordered 2 . They canceled 2, they said over the phone ups don't deliver to my address witch is bs , I get packages daily. I tried to reorder over the phone and online ,says my emails were already used. 3 more calls to boost on hold etc etc no 1 gives the same answers too questions. No 1 knows what there doing it seems in there call centers. I tried to use paypal but that was a issue for some reason so I used my cc, They charged my card 5 times bc while ordering the original 2 I kept getting spinning circles ⭕️ . I will have to dispute that now 🤦 ♂️! I'm currently on mint , I thought there call center was bad , boost makes mint look like scholars ! I'll pay a little more to mint for a piece of mind.

Yes according to boost reps who don't seem to know much. You can simply swap the physical sim or while calling to activate the sim use your e sim instead.

This is a good deal. Last year I got a deal from Mint which gave me a 1 year 15gb free after selling my pixel 7 pro on eBay to recover the cost.

Does anyone know if I have to use the chip in this device all year round to be able to unlock it or can I use it in another phone that is unlocked and still be able to unlock the Motorola.

Ah, a little confusing.

Well I ordered a 2023 Edge+ and they're shipping something- my shipping app says it's listed as an iPhone 12, but my order clearly says 2023 Edge+, so this should be interesting…
