Is there any reasonable/not a huge pain in the ass way of paying for your phone contract without it being in any way tied to your real identity?

I’ve gotten prepaid sims for things but obviously that’s not really a feasible method for your main life phone.

Yeah but you already need to be on the list for them to check at all

And even then I doubt they would. They got limited resources. with that being I have no idea about your threat model.

If it involves over zealous glowies, this comment section is prolly a bit too rookie to properly comment. Also this things are very geo specific as each jurisdiction will have their own KYC regs and compliance practices.
