Booking one-way vs. booking roundtrip then cancel return flight

I am looking to buy a one-way ticket from US to Europe in December close to Christmas holidays with United, but the prices of a one-way ticket is almost the same as a round-trip one. (the only cheap one-way tickets I can find are with low-cost carriers like Norse/Easyjet etc but their itineraries do not work for me)
I remember I had booked a round-trip ticket with United in the past, and I cancelled the return trip because I wanted to change my return flight to a different destination, and United gave me a flight credit for the return portion of the flight.
If I did something similar to get some flight credit for the return flight (after flying the outbound part), would it be against their terms & conditions?
