Just thought I would chime in on this thread to confirm that the Genius Bar replacement for my iPhone 6+ was approved for an unlock request via AT&T's online request form at https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/
Thanks for the heads up terraphantm, I had no idea replacement phones were eligible!
Any chance at an explanation of how to do this in detail? Do I go into an ATT store and tell them something wrong with my phone? Or go to the Apple Genius Bar and ask for a replacement, what about when they ask whats wrong with it? Or do I contact them or what? Will I have to surrender my phone and wait for replacement without a phone in the mean-time?
Does it cost anything?
