i never heard of that but i guess it happened years ago.  i know people who have locked phones right now. maybe the people CAN unlock their phones and don't know or what.  not sure.  they are happy with their carrier.  i've always used unlocked phones and jumped around so not sure.

right now i'm on straighttalk and they want me to put a verizon sim in and i don't want to.
