sorry none, both my main suppliers said they aren't providing the service due to time it takes to complete and cost.

That sucks... I hope it changes in the near future and becomes feasible!

Why are your Sprint unlocks so expensive? I know they aren't available much, is this why?

Edit: Nevermind, international only.

When it's actually available again, expect the price to under $100 depending on which reseller you find. If it's $100+ they are pretty low on the totem pole.

Lately I sent $48 to use on my account and for w.e reason it didnt update Instantly as it normally always did in the past, so after not getting replies I opened a paypal dispute. Paypal gave him option to click the "Refund" button but Swift claimed it doesn't exist....been on paypal for 8 years, I know it exists and now I'm waiting for Paypal to complete the case. Sent another $35 as I needed to unlock a S4 yesterday evening....well guess what...same ***** happened. They Updated my balance this morning at 9:15am and completely ignored my 3 emails.
Gsmfather.com is the reason markets crash. "He" sells every service and doesn't care that he only makes >$1 per sale...what's $1 to all those rupees? Now you know why At&t is cheap as it is.

Now on to Swift. Besides your PayPal issues, Dhru (which makes most of those unlocking websites) can have a lot of bugs. For instance, your balance not showing up instantly. The supplier has to do it manually sometimes, even for their orders.

But besides that, Swift is still an a hole with his nose way too high.

as a reseller I could care less about what he makes :-)

however I do see big guys like swift use gsmfather them selves...I see their info on their sites every now n then depending on the service I'm using.

I dont understand. What will become available again? Sprint international unlocks? I'm not very interested in an international unlock. I'm interested in a national unlock but from my understanding those will never be available.

I don't care either. That wasn't my point. My point is that if seller A is selling for $101, seller B will notice and start selling for $100. Back and forth we go...

I am referring to international unlocks. As far it working in the Usa, factory unlocks are pointless since the way that iPhone is made.

Where can I get a tmobile sim cheap? Just need to use a "not valid" sim for my unlock. Rather not buy a prepaid sim. My friend only has a nanosim

Try swiftunlocks.com

Sweet I got one as well and got the email super quickly. Gotta wait until I get home and plug in to check though!

Glad I found this....will be super helpful going to Italy. I can use my Nexus 4 on a prepaid sim and my wife can use my iP5.

Question about legality - I read that it is based on purchase date, i.e. if you purchased on or before 1/26/13. What if she purchased the phone before then, but needed a replacement after then.....would it still be legal to get my wife's unlocked?

I wouldn't even worry about something like that.
Not like the cellphone unlocking police will come looking for you
Very soon all cellphone unlocking will be legal in the US anyway since they're working on passing a new bill.
Good thing cause that previous stance didn't make any sense.
Anyway, enjoy your unlocked phones

I don't really think that there will be an iPhone police LOL, everybody is free to do whatever they want with their iphone and also it's perfectly legal from any standpoint. Also I've unlocked plenty of iphones from home for some friends (actually made some $ in the process) and I must tell you that nobody told me anything.. For the people that want to know how they can easily unlock their iPhone, i Used some guides from jaxov.com and also iphone unlocker pro (they have a really nice guide on unlocking: http://iphone-unlocker-pro.com. Happy unlocking folks!
