mobiles.co.uk iPhone Locking

Hello - I am looking for an iPhone SE deal for my auntie and the best one I have found is through mobiles.co.uk (with Vodafone SIM) and I was wondering if anyone had bought an iPhone from them recently and know if they still lock to the first SIM used?
The warning is still there (which would probably stop e going for it given Vodafone won't unlock if you didn't buy from them), but I'm fairly sure OFCOM banned phone locking last year, so I'm not sure? If this is the case, I will probably go for a phone only option from Tesco, so if anyone knows if that has any similar restrictions it would be appreciated.
Thanks
