My buddy is on att prepaid and I want to help him out and out him on my T-Mobile plan but I don't want to buy him a new phone. Att won't unlock his phone. Is there an unlock solution for the iPhone 5c that's been updated to 9.2? Thanks.

Where would I purchase an imei unlock from? Thanks.
Keep in mind that AT&T has fired two employees for installing malware that allowed third party unlocks from outside AT&T's system and that AT&T has sued Swift Unlocks for unauthorized unlocks through those two fired employees.

You will either pay through the nose, wait a considerable amount of time or be denied an unlock because AT&T is probably keeping a better eye on all of this right now - whatever unlock company you decide on.

Just thought I'd mention that.
