The other obvious way is to lock the phone to their system and sell it to you for a lower price than you would pay for a phone which is not locked. > They may have used euphemisms instead of "contract" but there is > something you agreed to which ensures you pay back the subsidy. No there is not if they charge you a lower price for the phone and lock it to their system so its no use on anything but their system. > If you end service before the subsidy has been > repaid, I bet you have termination penalty. There isn't with phones that are bought up front at a lower price than the same phone not locked to any carrier.
