I've never experienced it myself - mostly because I don't buy locked
devices. (and that goes for most stuff - e.g. my mobile phone was bought
sim-free, no contract, etc.) however I know it goes on - e.g. Vonage are
quite famous for it.
You might find that googling for your device and ITSP might give you some
clues as to hot to unlock it - I'm sure many are unlockable.

None of them are locked by default - it's only the service providers that
lock them into their own networks - so if you buy anything from an online
supplier that doesn't come with any sort of service then you should be
fine.
