Sometimes you can get a really good trade in deal. Just pay it off immediately and it will be unlocked, then you'll usually get bill credits for 2 years. You'll have to stay with that carrier for 2 years if you want the full discount but every month is you saving off of the full retail price, so as long as you plan to stay a few months anyway you're still saving.
