Why are you complaining then?
If its already unlocked you dont have to pay unlock fusion another $3-4 to unlock it.
You just saved yourself lots of money
Once you go though the set up, your phone will be locked to whatever carrier sim you have in there.
If it is a Verizon phone, then the GSM portion will remain unlocked.
On a side note: Please tell us what color phone you have and 16, 32, 64 gb, condition of replacement, and the first 4 number of your serial number and week it was made? If you have the original phone seral number to, then please provide the same.
Put your serial number into here: http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html
You don't have to of course, if you don't want to. My replacement appears to be "new" or someone's returned phone.
My serial no. is DNPJD
Week: 37 September
White 32 GB

Thanks
Most likely some one already got the iPhone unlocked and then got it replaced at the Apple Store for whatever reason.
Do you think a refurbished phone is possible so soon yet? Mine shows it was built in 37th(september) week...
I doubt 37th week builds are refurbs. However, refurbished iPhone 4s arrived around the 2 month mark and it's been 59 days already so the newest batch of replacement iPhone 5 should be refurbs rather than brand new any day.
You're sounding like a refurb phone is just the same faulty phone someone returned and just repackaged in a white box..
Do you really know what goes on regarding replacements?
Did it look like I was complaining?? I was just wondering how come it be factory unlocked fresh outta box..
Alright! I called up apple cause my replacement phone was unlocked straight outta the box( I'm happy though). But was wondering how can it be so gave them a call just to check and some Genius on the phone told me this
" IF YOU PERFORM DFU RESTORE ON ANY GSM IPHONE 5, IT AUTOMATICALLY UNOCKS ITSELF"
I was like that is not true, but he was adamant on his point. Was the genius on the phone right?
