Dish Closes Acquisition of Boost Mobile, Unveils New Plans
Can Current Sprint/T-Mobile Customers Switch?
I am wondering if current Sprint/T-Mobile customers can switch to Boost and take advantage of the introductory price plans. Before, Boost told me that I could not get their pricing if I switched from Sprint because it was considered a lateral move. I wonder if that has now changed.

To answer your question in SHORT: YES! You can take advantage of the plan now that Boost is no longer part of Sprint. Technically this should have been available July 1 2020.
To answer your question in LONG: NO! You may not be able to take advantage immediately while Dish moves customers from Sprint network to TMobile network, as well as updates Boost billing system to reflect this. It may take a few weeks or a month before that all gets worked out. So in their system, your account and plan may need to be migrated and updated to DISH/TMobile side rather than Boost/Sprint side.
Lastly if there are any Terms and Conditions to your original plan, such as a 90 day wait to reactivate service once cancelled. Some people cancel and resubscribe...
