[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1551805"] I very much doubt this scheme is going to work. By buying a Verizon iPhone on contract, they will almost certainly lock it. If you pay the ETF, my guess would be that you will have to pay a hefty fee to get it "factory unlocked" so that it can be used with other carriers. If the phone has a return period or cancellation period where you can get out of the deal, by all means get one, try it with a friend's SIM card and see if you can connect to AT&T or T-Mob. But don't get stuck in a deal you can't get out of that doesn't accomplish what you want. [/QUOTE]
