Same here. It’s actually cheaper to do infinite if you upgrade yearly. $70.55 x 12 =$846.60. If you get the new iPhone very year you’re paying less than the cost of a new phone ($1199) and getting the phone service included.
My stupid self with the $25 plan and 36 month 0% thought I was getting the year free with the $25 plan. If I realized I wasn’t, I would’ve went infinite plan.
As I’ll be paying $58.33 x 36 =$2,099.88 for 36 months and only have the iPhone 16 Pro Max the entire time. If I decide to trade in at apple they’ll probably only give me like $500-$600 at year two and then I’ll be paying apple $600 ish plus the $2099.88 in the end for a total of nearly $2700.
What a mess and great way to convince someone they’re getting a deal when their not.
I use my phone for work and regularly are in the red, and often get my battery health down to 85% ish in one year so for me I like to upgrade yearly. I hate charging my phone when I could be using it more comfortably.
They will make you pay to return the device. At least that's what I’ve been told. You have to wait 24-72 hours just for the email. I'm leaving Boost. When I brought my 14 Pro Max over, I had no issues with them. Now, after this, I realize I don't want to deal with them for any troubleshooting I may need to do going forward.
Did you ever receive your return label? I'm still trying to get one as of Monday Sep 30th.
They never gave me a label. Instead they sent me a “RA” which is basically just a RMA # but I had to pay return shipping myself. They also require you to use USPS oddly enough.
