iphone 6s upgrade program on prepaid MVNOs

ok, the $64K question from yesterday's Applefest:

I'm an MVNO prepaid customer... can I get this iphone upgrade program for the 6S?
(i.e. if I'm on Cricket, or Boost, or PagePlus, or Airvoice, or...) Why should Apple care which carrier I'm on?

If the answer to the above question is No (must be on one of the big four), then... what's to stop me from sign up no contract on, say Verizon, then dropping that service in a month and moving the phone to my MVNO?

Don't know if this is correct but I was just at Apple store and asked about this. They said it would be treated like financing through the service provider in that you would have to pay in full once plan is canceled. Can anyone else verify this? Kinda a deal breaker for me.
