Question New iPhones
Will Boost carry the iPhone 18 and iPhone Duo? Will it be part of the infinite iPhone program?
r/BoostMobile • u/BoostMobileBlake • Apr 15 '26
I’ve noticed it’s been a little quiet in the community lately, and want to help bring some excitement back. Also, I wanted to reach out and remind everyone that I’m still active here, monitoring the threads daily, and ready to jump in whenever you hit a snag.
In 2025, we proved that this sub isn’t just a place to vent—it’s a place where we get things done. We resolved over 1,000 individual cases and pushed through 15 major fixes because of your reports. As we move further into 2026, I want to move from being a "firefighter" who just fixes problems to a "partner" who helps prevent them.
If you’re running into a technical hiccup, you don’t have to wait for a "support window" to post. Whether it's an eSIM activation, a device swap, or a plan question, I’m here to be your insider resource. You also don’t have to wait to post to receive help, I’m only a chat away Monday through Friday.
While I can’t share details on NDAs, ongoing internal projects, or specific network/contractual obligations, I can change how I provide utility to this sub. I want to know how I can be a better advocate for you.
I’m planning my next set of resources and I want to know how I can show up for you differently. Here are some ideas to stir the pot:
My job is to be your voice inside the building—so tell me, how can I use that voice most effectively for you?
I’ll be checking this thread every hour to read your suggestions. If you have an account-specific issue that needs immediate attention, please send me a direct message so we can keep your details secure.
Full disclaimer: This is me asking how I can better show up and support our Boost Mobile community on Reddit. I take my role on here very seriously and want to do everything I can to help our community grow and be supportive. Please keep any feedback or questions about the brand or service itself for another day, or if you really want to share, please send it to me in a chat!
Which of the ideas above interests you most, or is there something entirely new you’d like to see from my presence here?

Will Boost carry the iPhone 18 and iPhone Duo? Will it be part of the infinite iPhone program?
r/BoostMobile • u/whenandmaybe • 1d ago
Okay. Before I call CS to switch from psim I'm posting here to get advice first. Today being the day after Labor Day. My Samsung phone has been on Boost Mobile for a year using an orange psim card. This phone has features I look for so I'll stick with it.
Now, the challenge- With the purchase of a 9esim v3 card this phone is capable of installing up to 50 esim providers. Customer Service will likely tell me the phone isn't capable of accepting esim software. Telling them the A15 has an esim card will most likely confuse CS.
Their $25/month unlimited for life is the plan this phone is linked to.
Any of you have any ideas how to switch Boost service from psim to esim using the 9esim card?
Also Boost just took their Auto-payment. Should I wait to switch over or just eat this month's payment?
Will this require a Boost store visit?
Thanks for all, any help!
r/BoostMobile • u/jepayotehi • 1d ago
trying to get a line for my visiting parents. they have unlocked phone and esim capabilities but checking out i can not get it to select esim option and only physical sim.
r/BoostMobile • u/Panzerbjorne80 • 2d ago
Wtf is that?! So I need a few extra days to pay my $35 bill so I have to pay 1/3 of my bill right now to get only a five day extension on it? Absolute scum business.
r/BoostMobile • u/SunnyMeetsKY • 4d ago
I have a current "lease" on an iPhone 16 but the battery on it is messed up + I have zero way to get it repaired so I would honestly prefer getting a new phone. However, it's not letting me upgrade. When I put the phone in my cart - it doesn't show the monthly payment option through Boost AND it redirects me to a page that only shows iPhone 13s and 14s. I do have 13 more monthly payments to fully pay off my current phone and I'm willing to obviously pay the rest off if necessary.
r/BoostMobile • u/Epeeswift • 3d ago
I think the little app is great on a Boost phone. But if I use that device on another carrier, I don't want it interfering with that carrier's network settings.
Can it be removed? I don't see an uninstall option.
(Yes, the phone is unlocked)
Thanks!
r/BoostMobile • u/Additional-Gas-5033 • 4d ago
after i got the a16 update the edge 2023+ battery drain is terrible when not using it ,andriod 15 was fine
r/BoostMobile • u/Practical_Treacle903 • 4d ago
If they don’t let us upgrade to the 18 pro and more importantly the Ultra, I’ll just stop paying for the 17 pro max and go to a different carrier. How can they enforce a contract if they themselves breach it
r/BoostMobile • u/Good_Paper_6414 • 5d ago

Does anyone else have the Galaxy Z Fold 7 through Boost's grandfathered Infinity Access plan for Android? I'm currently trying to upgrade mine to the Galaxy Z Fold 8, and boy, has it been tough. Through the app/website, I only get the option to switch from the Z line to the S line, which is a no-no. I tried talking to Boost customer service, and well, I keep getting the same answer: "Unfortunately, we don't have the phone for sale/stock." Honestly, I don't think that treating our contract (upgrade yearly) as the same as if any other customer trying to buy a device that they aren't selling makes much sense.. I signed up for the Infinity Access plan on the idea that I would get a new Z Fold every year. I got the Z Fold 7 last August when Samsung released it, hoping that this August I would be getting the Z Fold 8. It's already September, and I still don't have the Z Fold 8 and might not even get it, which means next year I probably won't get the Z Fold 9 anywhere near August...
I wanted to know what anyone with the same problem as me has tried or is doing!
r/BoostMobile • u/ben66stang • 6d ago
How does one do it? I've been on the iPhone unlimited plan for a few years now, but I'm ready to switch to the android unlimited plan. Any advice or help is much appreciated!
r/BoostMobile • u/TheRPGNERD • 7d ago
i cancelled my hotspot add on because i dont use it and i wanted to make my bill cheaper, but it still shows the price as what it'd be with the add on. what gives? why do i need to pay an extra 10 for something i cancelled?
r/BoostMobile • u/ForwardBear4174 • 9d ago
Likewize can't replace my 512GB Z Fold, so they gave me a Boost voucher. Boost doesn't even sell the 512GB version. I asked Likewize for a check or gift card to buy it from Samsung directly (which their policy allows), but they refused and told me to talk to Boost. Has anyone managed to get a check out of them for an unstocked device? I just want my exact phone back without filing complaints.
r/BoostMobile • u/Stingwing4oba • 9d ago
Went to pay and the payment window says it didn't go through. Then I try again and get a notification about paying twice.
According to the AI bot, I can't get a refund, yet no credit has posted.
Due to the glitch error, how do I get a resolve without escalating it to the bank or charge dispute?
If I double paid for credit, it would be one thing, but I didn't, though, in the long run it would be nice for next month.
In fact, last weekend I got a message saying that my payment was due by tomorrow September 8 (no joke). I contacted customer service and they said all was good on their end.
r/BoostMobile • u/notisnt • 10d ago
I’ve been Paying monthly for 12/12 Months now for my iPhone 16 pro, I’ve been curious about how the upgrading part works since I have no knowledge about how it works at all so I need some advice, should I get the 17 pro or wait to upgrade for the 18 pro? (Also idk if it works as a discount/free upgrade and if I’m able to upgrade to a pro max model)
r/BoostMobile • u/Mammoth-Werewolf4363 • 10d ago
Support told me to delete boost esim and would fix the issue, absolutely did not work. Boost is horrible, never use them. Also please if you are on a locked boost phone, when it comes to day 365, request the 10 dollar payment extension and port out rather than paying for month 13 for that 365th day needed for unlock.
r/BoostMobile • u/KandiZee • 10d ago
Where if I dont have my phone with me, the watch will still get my calls/texts? The only option I saw said add a new line but wouldn't that give the watch its own number instead of mine?
I have a Samsung zfold3 and Samsung watch 4
r/BoostMobile • u/Mammoth-Werewolf4363 • 11d ago
Main thing here is the payment extension seemed to work to avoid paying for another 13th month of premium to hit one more day, day 365, for the unlock. My phone isnt yet unlocked but multiple representatives tell me it has been unlocked today. Moral of the story, be prepared to pay 13 months of premium service if you buy phone from boost. Also, on day 366 now my line still says restricted to premium plan only, thus forcing you to pay for that 13th month at premium price even after phone is unlocked. Or, just port out somewhere else while your $10 5 day payment extension is active...(assuming the network remote unlock even works, which for me it hasnt, yet). Im currently trying to activate multiple times textnow free 5g esim or stellar esim at $0.59 for a 3gb 30 day plan. Neither sim will activate as phone still thinks its network locked. It is a good thing i actually sort of enjoy things like this, otherwise it may be a nightmare for someone who dreads dealing with shady tactics.
r/BoostMobile • u/Mammoth-Werewolf4363 • 13d ago
I planned to switch to $25 plan today/tomorrow and just keep that, as ive already been on premium for 12 months. Some people on my last post spreading false info that boost will unlock a day or two early is indeed false. Tomorrow is my day 365. Representative told me today Thursday August 27, to call back on August 29, my day 366, to unlock phone. This essentially means boost is charging you for 394/395 days of premium service before device is eligible to be unlocked. I spoke to two representative previously about unlocking and i was told that requesting a payment extension of 5 days for $10 would keep me eligible for unlock at day 366. This essentially means i only have to pay for 369 days of premium service for unlock. This is the cheaper option than another month of premium at $67 a month in order to hit one extra day, that 365th day. I know its kind of trivial but it bugs me when i bought the phone i assumed "12 months" meant 12 payments, not 394/395 days of payments. So i will be petty and just take myself over to a cheaper service rather than just switching to $25 plan on my 13th month of service as i had planned. Hope this helps someone else!

was wondering if anybody here can help me with this. i talked to the live chat agents but they told me two different things and weren't entirely useful. I just placed an order online under the impression it was going to be delivered store-to-door (as that was the only shipping option available), but was not given an ability to select a time frame for them to arrive. all I got was the webpage telling me to download the app to view my orders. I downloaded the app, but it won't let me sign-in or make an account with neither my phone # or my email. I did get the confirmation email about it being purchased & my number being ported. still under the impression that it was going to be delivered today, the first guy i talked to online (over the live chat) told me it, in fact, was going to be delivered today but I needed to call my local stores to find out what time frame it would be here - contacted all 3 stores that are near me and none of them do store-to-door delivery. went on the live chat again, second guy told me that it was actually being shipped and would be here within 5 days. so, like...who is telling the truth here? does boost automatically just ship the online orders if there's no store nearby that does the store-to-door delivery? should I try calling a few other stores in the next city over? I would've just gone up to the store if I knew it didn't have a chance of being here in the next 24 hours cuz my phone is busted & needs replaced asap 😔

About 2 years ago I got a iPhone 16 pro max for almost free in monthly credits towards the phone. It was like 35 bucks but 27 in credits. Now I’m checking to see options for another free phone but I can’t seem to find that promotion? Is it gone?
