maybe I'm a noob but how did Maxis lock the phone. I'm pretty sure the icloud account belongs to your cousin.

The most maxis can do is blacklist the imei from their network to the best of my knowledge

it's a kill switch to prevent people from switching service provider after signing up with their special deals which includes cheaper handset.

not sure if that killswitch function can be removed when the contract expires or it's always there and any time maxis like it it can lock the phone.
