- Comment on FCC proposes ending cellphone carrier locks after 60 days 4 months ago:
You just end up paying a premium for your mobile plan at that point. There are much cheaper plans than the ATT one, and for some, you’ll end up paying way less if they buy the phone outright and subscribing to those.

Yes, the phrase comes from turning a dial to a higher value. Think, for example, of a guitar amplifier. You could “dial up” the volume, meaning you are increasing the volume.
Dial up internet refers to a different kind of dialing.
