You have to specifically buy a factory unlocked phone if you want it to work on any carrier out of the box. By default many countries and phones are locked to official carriers if not specified as unlocked. Sounds like yours is locked.

Maybe what he says is that before let's say at&t activates his phone can he use a different sim. Well as BT said if it's offically unlocked it cost you around 800 bucks and you are able to use it with any carrier you want.
A phone company can always remove the sim lock after your flatrate expires.
