No more unlocked phones will be sold, says Verizon

in #verizon7 years ago

From this spring, Verizon will stop selling unlocked phones in a bid to reduce device theft. The company will be changing their policy, opting to sell their phones locked for a "period of time" after purchase.

According to the company, We're taking steps to combat device theft and reduce fraud. With this step, devices will become less appealing targets in the eyes of device thieves, as they won't be able to effectively resell them on the black market right away.

Selling of phones locked for varying periods of time following their purchase is standard industry practice. Verizon says they will offer more details regarding their plans at a later date before this become a reality.
