This just reeks of a scam. Did you bother to read their private policy?

So much for being 100% anonymous. You're browsing habits and IP location will give up a lot of information about you alone. You're still pinging the major cell carriers towers after all.
My other major concern would be that fact there isn't any special encryption being used. Calls can still easily be intercepted with something like Stingray for example.
Burner phone from the corner store is a much better way to go.
Edited to add, even with your GPS disabled, it is still possible to locate your phone through triangulation off cell tower pings. And you know how those handy smart phones like to connect to open wifi near by? Ding, You just left another trace.
Stick with a low tech burner and pay with cash.

doenst adding your delivery details to their mailing list defeat the object? just popping into a corner store to buy a burner is safer

I find that I have more anonymity using a burner phone purchase with cash from Walmart. 90 days service for 20 bucks. I pretended that I didn't know how to activate it and the attendant did it for me, so no ties to any number or email account. That's Tradecraft my brother.
Any internet account leaves a foot print that can easily be traced. You did say you ordered it, so your shippping address is tied to the chip.
