You can’t unlock it for 6 months from the date it was on contract. So the guy selling it shouldn’t be doing so...

One of my friend had a same model locked on EE, on his behalf I asked a support section of theofficialunlocks.com and they claimed they can do it 100% in 10 days but the price was so expensive so didn't go for it. As far a credibility concern I'd been using and placed many orders with them and they never disappointed.

EE are a nightmare to unlock phones when the buyer isn’t a customer. I brought one before off a mate for the life of me I couldn’t get them to unlock it!
Ended up being I was told an EE sim had to stay in the phone for 6 months with a top up every month before they would even consider it.
I got a refund, it wasn’t worth the hassle.

That’s mad, on O2 you can unlock for free at any point with no hassle. My concern with the OP would be the guy defaulting on his bill and you being stuck with a bricked iPhone.

Yes, EE less than 6 months are damn expensive to unlock, but after completion of six months they approve it on submitting a simple request.
