    In rare cases, a simlocked mobile is sold at a substantially lower price than an unlocked one, it is for the service facilitator expects profit with its service. A user may choose to unlock the phone and remain using his older provider. Therefore, simlocks are normally employed on low price (pay-as-you-go) handsets, while discounts on costly mobils need a subscription that facilitates guaranteed cash flow.

    A step by step procedure known as "box breaking" is standard in the UK and some other markets. This includes purchasing (normally) give as you go mobiles from retail stores, unlocking the phones, and then selling them (usually abroad) for a too much price than the subsidised buyer price. The SIM card that gave with the subsidised mobile is then either Wasted or sold or used elsewhere.

    This use is totally legal in the UK, and facilitates a de-facto limit to the huge to which networks are desireing to subsidise pay as you go mobiles. In previous times network managers have been insisting that new users purchase substantial prices of airtime at the similar time as they buy a new mobile, in order that the total price they give comes close to the correct value of the mobile.
