As a fellow Belgian, I can confirm this. In Belgium, these kind of deals where you get the phone only if you buy a contract are illegal. This is because this locks customers in on a plan and prevents fair competition between cell providers.
Furthermore, I don't even get to chose which mobile phone provider I have, my company does. I am allowed to pick the phone I like though. And if there would be a sim-lock free version for double the price without a contract, I would pay it. No problem
So Steve, why do you leave this pile of money on the table??
