Carrier IMEI unlocking service down? 10/3/13

[iPhoneReseller]

again a little bit out of topic, is the verizon iPhone 5s and 5c also factory unlocked like the verizon iPhone 5?

I'm gonna let you guys in on a little secret on how I unlock my iPhones for free...

Your little secret is flawed for contract phones, which are the main ones that people do the black market unlocks for

Just called At&t and got an iPhone 5S and 5 unlocked free of charge.

Did you buy the phones contract-free (full retail price)?

I have placed unlock orders using two different services and one of those told me that ATnT servers are down right now so there is no way to unlock the phone as for now. Could someone of unlock service providers comment this?

Which two?

One is local Ukrainian guy and second is GsmFather (which I used when there were not any problems with unlocks at all).

Nope both were 2year upgrades and both still on contract.

Yes.

By law, Verizon has to release all of their cell phones unlocked because of the spectrum they want to use for their cell phones.

So, how did you do it? Details please...

Ordered from ChronicUnlocks, the Fast AT&T option for my 5s.
Emailed Will, He responded that it should be done by tonight.

I'll post back on the results when my device unlocking is complete.

Guess its hit or miss if you get a response when you email. I've received nothing.

Why are the 5s/5c taking longer?. Isn't it the same process?!

New contracts = strict requirements

 

[Ramio]

New contracts = strict requirements

I see, makes sense but why are the prices much higher?. Is it att charging or people who work at att who are doing the unlocks?.

Sorry can't put my secrets out there.

I just received a $10 refund from the guy unlocking my phone because he said it could take an additional 24 hours to unlock it. So far I'm really pleased with his customer service... AND, he's doing this despite eBay having removed his listing for some ridiculous reason...

eBay removed one of my listings for an empty iphone box with accessories because I put in the listing that it was an Apple product... How ridiculous is that? Oh well, I sold it for more money locally...

Guy's, go with Satnam1989. He unlocked 5s in less than 2 hours with good communication and he is also a forum vendor.

I don't think i've gotten customer service like this for the past 20 years. A++

Still waiting on my 5s unlock. I am hopeful it will go through soon as others seem to have had such a good experience.

I put in an order with him through his site for an iPhone 4 about half an hour ago, will report back when it's complete.
