10/3/2025.
Reports are that boost may may changed their T & C.
(Around 10/1/2025 . maybe, not clear)
Requiring activating phone and using service for some time.
(3 months?).
Do your research.
However, may not matter much as phone appears to be gone for good from boost website.
________________________________________________________________
You must activate the phone on boost network within 30 days of purchase.
If not you may be charged the full MSRP of the Device(s).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
best practice=open the phone. activate the boost account. make a call or 2. send a text or 2
phone call &/or text just insures the phone number has been fully registered on the boost network
while not entirely necessary, just to be safe.
and not get a $600 bill or get sent to collections
[ which has happened to at least one user on this thread ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
make sure u activate.
By checking this box I agree to e-transaction/e-signature, Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions. Once activated I authorize Boost Mobile to automatically charge my card monthly for my Boost Mobile services, taxes and surcharges. My service will not begin until my SIM is activated. If you do not activate your Device(s) on the Boost Mobile network within 30 days of purchase, you may be charged the full MSRP of the Device(s) (less your purchase price), if applicable, to the card used today or any alternative method. . I also agree to receive communications regarding this order via email, SMS, or phone call using the contact information provided

Buying multiple phones?
Consider this.
The first phone will be 120.
Subsequent phones (either purchased at same time on withing next few days) will be less.
Boost has a weird way of billing and its often confusion. No one has figured it out yet.
Many have made speculations:
For example. Below is from a user.
My first purchase cost me $125.90 in total then subsequently thereafter I purchased 2x more phones which came out to $94.84 each.
Since you bought the first phone at regular price, Boost treats any further purchases as an additional line since they're on the same account.
However, bear in mind Boost will automatically enable autopay again so be sure to disable it prior to your next billing cycle recurring.

Apologies if this has already been covered, went back about 4 or 5 pages and didn't see the origin of this issue.
No complaints... I basically got it free a few years ago during some of the crazy Fi deals. I still have two more... one I'm using on Boost... the other is our travel phone on Fi.
Edit: It was sold out but came back after a few minutes

As for cancelling, do I just disable auto-pay to cancel service? Or do I have to call/chat to cancel?
About time!
On a trip to Europe now. Boost Mobile / SIM tries to get me on a $20/month roaming plan. I am just using wifi, but very rarely with the new phone.
In Athens, I found only 1 case at a few places. Pricing ranged from 2-8 euros (1.17 E/USD). It has 4 small cutouts for each rear camera and light. It is thin and does NOT protect the front glass in any way as it is short of the front glass by a mm or 2. "Fashion case Mobile Cover Products" Edge 40 Pro. Black, but think there was another color option too. UPC: 6 988188 700292. The shop also had a machine to cut a plastic shield for the glass which included a tiny hole for the front tiny selfie camera. He peeled off some upper and lower plastic tabs in placing the plastic glass cover. Then he carefully got the curved edges covered and very carefully cleaned up the margins. This was not the UV light product. The plastic shield product was cut and installed for 7 or 8 euros. Told there is no curved glass shield for this phone and was not offered a flat glass shield like for the MEP 2022. I replaced my 2022 glass shield for 2 euros and he did the replacement in front of me. Folks at the shop are real pros and the place had tons of selection for many phone types. So yes, this curved screen is proving to be a real pain. Oh well. FWIW, still showing sold out on the Boost Mobile website.

2 main reasons. First, the screen is more vulnerable. You can't find a good screen protector easily and the case doesn't protect the curved part.
Second, when you want to screen save something at the edges, it's harder than regular screens. Quite annoying.
And it doesn't offer anything positive. It's just a gimmick
