+1 for sure. I also doubt they got an unlocked phone. I'm going to bet they'll need to establish service with Verizon or wind up owing Verizon for the contract.


100% agree.


Contact Xfinity

Sales people will say anything to make a sale. I seriously doubt Verizon would sell an interest free phone that was unlocked. They are in the business to make money, and they make money either by charging interest or locking the phone and charging you for service.


You can find out if your iPhone is locked as follows:

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap General.
  3. Tap About. If "No SIM restrictions" appears next to Carrier Lock, your iPhone is unlocked.
