Tried to bring my unlocked Metro devices over on this deal - got the SIM cards and couldn't activate. CS said incompatible devices.

Odd, perhaps they gave you the rainbow sim cards that have the capacity to automatically switch networks? I say this because those are the ones I remember having a limited number of devices that are compatible with them. ATT or T-mobile based sims should work on any GSM unlocked device

I do remember them saying something like this. We have no signal inside our house with Metro. I have had friends over with ATT, Cricket, & Verizon who also had no service. Always figured I was in a dead zone.
My son has boost, was using it with an unlocked Cricket phone for a year - no signal in our house. He recently upgraded to a Samsung A35 from boost mobile's website and now has a strong signal inside my house.

dont deal with boost.
1 year ago i bought unlimited for 1 year for 150usd.
as i read here, they have 2 types of sim cards: tmobile and att.
i ordered att and switched to it.
now 1 year spent but already 1 week i speak to them every day to get port out pin. they cant give it to me because of some "issue" - they sent me 3 pins at the same time and none of them worked. now they said wait 4 days for another pin.
my line already suspended because plan ended so i had to buy some trial sim to use in my phone as 2nd sim.
so definitely it doesnt cost that effort that you will take when you will leave boost. customer support is terrible
