While you cannot take the cell phone, there are several things you can do to limit use on your account. Depending upon your provider rules, you can:
1) Restrict calling in or out, as well as block text messaging and internet use.
2) Put that phone on a vacation plan for a reduced rate per month, while putting restrictions on the phone.
3) Cancel service on that phone. While you might have to pay an early termination fee, you'll no longer have to deal with that person at all.
4) Set up account limits for the amount of time that phone can be used. Some providers allow you to assign minute usage on a cell phone number, with or without a fee.
5) Transfer service into their own name. This will require a credit check.
Remember, while this person may own the equipment, your husband owns the account.
