Just wondering if anyone with a contracted & locked AT&T iPhone 5S has been able to successfully unlock their phone through one of the online unlocking services. If so, which one?
If it's successful, I'm happy to save myself some $
yep for $2 on ebay.
No need for eBay. swiftunlocks will do for $2. Few hours you will get email confirmation that your phone was unlocked and all you have to do is restore it on iTunes.
So what happens if you buy a AT&T subsidized iPhone 5s and then connect it to iTunes ? It won't unlock it that way ? Thanks

It won't unlock unless you have used a service that does these unlocks for you.
But there were two posters who've done this and it worked for them.
Because they used the service...
NO THEY DIDN'T .. They connected it to iTunes and got the unlock message. .....

Simply connecting your phone to iTunes won't do anything. You use the service, they whitelist the iPhone, you connect ti iTunes, it tells your phone it unlock.
So yes, they did use the service. The service is, the company whitelists your IMEI.
It doesn't work like that.
Unless they paid full price for their iPhone. If they got it under contract it will be locked and won't unlock on its own just by plugging it to iTunes.
This is my third post and you dont understand.
I got my phone from at&t under contract.. So its locked.
Now I have another phone unlimited plan to T-Mobile. Cut my micro Sim to nano.
Then the iPhone from at&t was unlocked by swiftunlocks. (Email confirmation from them)
Go to ****ing iTunes and restore your iPhone together with your T-Mobile Sim and it will tell you after restore the phone was unlocked.
Now your phone is same as the unlock you are buying at apple store. This is permanent.
WRONG ..it's the same thing as if they paid full price. When connect it to iTunes it restores your phone and then you get the unlocked message. NO OUTSIDE SERVICE USED
All I'm stating is that two others were able to connect it to iTunes after paying a subsidized price and not using any unlocking service were able to have their AT&T iPhone 5s unlocked via iTunes and I'm looking for others who've done that
