I called T-Mobile and inquired about service and such, they are basically like boost now these days, you buy the phone out right, and go month to month, no contact. Only way you are on any sort of contract is if you decide to go with paying for the phone on payments, then you are on a payment plan until the phone is paid off plus the monthly fee, after the phone is paid off you are then on a month to month basis . A scenario would be if a phone is say $400, I plop $400 down plus tax and then pay a normal monthly fee, no contract .
I will say boost vs T-Mobile.......boost offers better data plan.... Tmo = $60 for 3gb, boost mobile = $60 for 5gb. On the flip side of that T-Mobile does offer a much better phone selection than boost does.
In short boost = better/more data plan and T-Mobile = better phone selection.
Boost however does not offer shrinkage anymore at all unless you are grandfathered in, but at this rate they may cut that to sadly.
So there you have it a comparison of boost vs T-Mobile. Hope this will help some decide what they want to do.
I personally may switch over to T-Mobile, simply because boost seems to be choking us out of benefits over other services, they just don't offer much of an incentive anymore. With t-mobile I can at least go a nexus 5 right now and be month to month still.
At the moment though I am sticking with boost simply because I have only had this phone for 7 months or so, so it is fairly new, that and I and I am grandfathered in with shrinkage.
I haven't inquired about other companies, so I can't vouch for others, only these two.

... online they offer $50 gift card, go in store and buy then after say where's my $50 bucks? They'll say it's for online orders only, then say OK refund this phone and ill order it online right now right here and I will pick it up right now here at the store, then just make them work with you and maybe you will get the $50 off the phone on the spot like I did....
