I'm on the boost mobile $100 prepaid plan and was able to get this for $107. I hope there wont be an issues since it seems this offer is for the premium plan.
According to a Reddit post - any existing, upgrade eligible customer qualifies regardless of their plan and will not have to change plans.

I'm on the $300(ish) yearly plan from picking up a Moto Edge+ 2023 in May of last year on promo.

Thinking about three possible options...

1) I stay another year (+ 1 month) I'll end up with an unlocked Moto Edge+ 2023 to repurpose or sell, an unlocked iPhone 13, and 25 months of service for under $700 ...roughly $625 of which was service (calculating service at $25/month)

2) Go in-store and try to use an alternate line (US Mobile) to sign up for the iPhone 15 deal... question is. ...if I terminated service on that line, can I move the iPhone 15 over to my existing Boost service?

3) Do 1 and 2

Bit the Bullet and purchased the iPhone 13 ...still thinking about the iPhone 15

MKSD on eBay for $10 v5.7

May be I have been living under the rock. What is MKSD?
Just did some search on MKSD. Do I need a physical sim of the provide I am trying to use? Does it gets unlocked only for that provider?

Yea, you can use esim or sim card after it is unlocked by MKSD.
Are you sure? I don't think MKSD or Rsim work for Boost's iphones.

let me know what happens with the iphone 15 deal. I read around it could be a lot of issues and restrictions. Could be locked in with an expensive plan for a few months. I received my iPhone 13 and thinking of trading it to the apple store for a 16e along with an iphone 12 I currently use.

I received an email offer of a 16e for $199 with new line and port. (in-store, so could be a hassle). "Get the newest iPhone 16e when you switch to Boost Mobile at one of our stores today."

Have put the 15 on hold for now.

Thanks.

Have you done the instore deal for the Iphone 15?

I would like to know if there any other taxes or activation is applicable other than the 149 +60 plan. How much in total out the door?

$12 for insurance and 35 for activation. Total would be 149+60+12+35+tax.

My order in CA came to $167 and change after tax. Plan to just use the number to get an extra google voice number and then trade the phone into Apple. Apple trade-ins take like 10 mins so its not much effort and I could use the credits.

How you cancel the line?

Couldn't you get this deal, port out to Metro for their iPhone 13 deal. Trade this Boost phone to Apple and then use the Metro iPhone after it unlocks in 6 months?

Can I just buy this phone, just pay for one month and cancel plan. Then since it's unlocked can I just use with a diff company. I don't need it for credit for a newer phone, this phone seems a great deal at $100 but I just want to keep it and use with another company instead of trading in
