The iPhones will work if u never pay monthly bills. They just stay locked carrier. Thats why there alot of locked att iphones on amazon. If u check their imei it will show u its locked and if u try to do unlock request through att website it will show u it can not be unlocked cuz money owed on iphone. Iphone will remain working under only to the carriers it owe money too. And their sister carriers like att also owns cricket so if u buy locked att iphone it will also work with cricket carrier. Same goes with tmobile. Verizon and such. Theres a way to get carrier locked iPhones unlocked through 3rd party or u can do it urself on laptop its called SimUnlock but if u ever restart or hard reset the iphone the sim unlock becomes locked again till program reinstalled. Which is annoying cuz everytime u update ios iphone requires restart.

Nope, the phones get out on a non pay blacklist so they can’t be reactivated

Ok if u say so. I do this for living. How else do u think carrier locked iphones exist? As long as its not reported lost or stolen. They will always work even if u made no payments on it. Ur soo wrong its not even worth arguing with u. How old are u. 10? Theres no such a thing called none pay blacklist lol. Where u come up with this 💩? None pay blacklist lol
