Apple Closes Unlocked iPhone Loophole for T-Mobile and Verizon Financing

Wednesday July 15, 2026 3:20 pm PDT by
Carrier-financed iPhones purchased from Apple will soon be locked to the carrier, ending a workaround customers used to purchase an unlocked iPhone on a payment plan. Until the rule change, buying an iPhone from Apple and opting for financing through Verizon or T-Mobile meant you would get an iPhone not locked to either carrier's network. That's no longer the case, and now iPhones financed...

Wish Apple offered higher cash back at more locations - the 2% cash back on apple pay is great but you can get 5% off Apple products on Amazon with the prime card any time.

Here come the complaints from current customers for not being included.

Every credit card does this. It's how they get people to sign up. Amex Platinum gives you 100,000 points for signup. Many give you a pile of cash back after hitting a certain spend. This is common of most every credit card out there.

This seems like a good deal. I got some sort of bonus when I signed up for my Apple Card a while back. I use my Apple Card for many purchases just because it's convenient. I love how I can always see the balance clearly in the Wallet app and payments are easy and instant. I have a Discover card that I use sometimes because during certain periods it has better cash back.

The trap here is your $50 or whatever as a bonus will cost you hundreds of dollars in interest over the year. They're not giving that money out without expecting something in return. Unless you're disciplined enough to pay off the balance every month and not purchase something you can't afford stay away from these offers.
Words of wisdom.… yet word to the wise. As long as you live within your means and read terms carefully you can game the system. Never paid a dime in interest on any credit card debt in my entire life. I have made at least $30k to as much as $50k in rewards, bonuses, and signup offers over the last 20+ years.

Yup over the last 20+ years…. But hey it sure adds up!!! It‘a like getting a free car or two, several vacations, major home renovation etc on someone else’s dime.

There is nothing wrong with consumerism unless you are an undisciplined consumer. That is the beauty of Capitalism!! It is politically incorrect to tell somewhat the right answer is! Instead we find ways to make money from everyone’s individual dreams and diversity!!

Ouch.. went a little off topic… But the overall message is as long as you at an afford it and make it work then praise to you!! and if not… then well I guess it sucks to be you. That’s the beauty of it all! You let people build their own prisons through their own decisions!!

Just thinking that these companies make so much in profit, they can give everyone these benefits, not just new people. Companies are great at recruitment, but terrible at retainment.
Thanks for telling us you have no clue how business works.
