I saw a few at $20 but I'm not entirely sure they're working right now. One took his listing off while I was looking at it actually :/

I'm not horribly concerned with it being done soon but I would like to get the iPhone I just bought unlocked as I have absolutely no phone at the moment. I guess my other option would be to just get a prepaid sim with AT&T (probably AIO Wireless actually); I was planning to use the $30 plan with T-Mobile.

On average you are going to wait 24hrs thats the best bet. I have someone doing them for 1-12hrs (but due to the state of the servers/service loads etc) I recommend the 24hrs option.

I have a few orders that we cleared since yesterday but once again 24hrs is the normal time frame I would say. Anyone advertising less would probably leave most people disappointed.

Prices from reliable sellers are in the $25-$30 range for regular service.

No one can't unlock AT&T now (accept AT&T). They changed the access to their database. Just sit tight.

You need to look at the purchase date. Then look at the feedback. I know not all customers leave feedback, but there are no positive feedbacks for this $20 service, yet.

Also note, the 5s and 5c are not supported.

just a quick heads up ... I finally was able to get my unlock done by HackiPhones, they did the service in less than 6 hrs, its 33 dlls but totally worth it, just keep in mind what they say in their site, they unlock while it's China's daytime so make sure to make your order near daytime China to get instant unlocking as I did

How can all these unlocking sites do this when it's illegal?

So if I bought an iPhone 5s using AT&T Next program, could I use one of these sites to unlock my phone before it's paid off

I know on eBay, if the phone was bought after 1/26/13 they won't unlock it.
