LOL!!!

I haven't even looked at the link, but here's two things to consider.

1. The only "legit" third party unlock I've heard of is from chronicunlocks.com and it's an INTERNATIONAL unlock intended for non-Sprint users who happen to own a Sprint iPhone. $150 and a really LOOOONNNNGGGG wait!!!

2. No "legit" third party unlock offers a DOMESTIC unlock for a Sprint iPhone. It's not possible.

Hope always spring eternal for desperate Sprint iPhone owners trying to get off Sprint and not pay the ETF or return their phone. Every time it's misplaced and causes misery. Pay the ETF or return the phone. Buy a new phone on the carrier you want to go to.

YES THEY ARE, last time i tried to unlock a Sprint iPhone they couldn't do it so THEY GAVE ME A FULL REFUND at least!
OK, so legit in that they are a business and refunded your money.

At least they're honest now in the sense that just like chronicunlocks.com they only offer INTERNATIONAL unlocks for Sprint iPhones.

Domestic US Sprint iPhone users – you're still out of luck!

How many days did they take to refund your money back? I have requested a refund from them on July 26th and still havent got it. Thanks in advance.
 
Though the new bill for unlock legal, it doesn't force carriers to unlock the phones for consumers. Now for a sprint iphone owner without a sprint account like me, the best way to use this phone is to use it as a touch5c, twice the performance than iPod Touch 5. And choose to wait and wait seems the best way.

I used to think that the factory unlock change the iphone activation policy to 10 Unlock, but these days when I search unlock service I find a GSX result in a Chinese website.

Though it's Chinese language but we could see that the Next Activation Policy is very very strange, and I think the vendor is powerful. He sells the Unlock GSM Service and the price is $130, and Unlock CDMA Service is $200. Due to the high price, I don't see someone buy it.

So I assume that they take your money for a international Sprint Unlock and refund you if you want to unlock in the US. All Sprint phones are unlocked for international use. I had two different ones I used for business travel and never talked to their international department to unlock it.

Some dude here in Afghanistan jacked my 5s so I my wife got one in the states that was "unlocked" but really wasn't unlocked. So I'm using the keys2iPhone site to get it done more expeditiously than ATT. Apparently the new user (me) can't make the unlock request I have to track this person down from craigslist.

I'll let you guys know how it goes with an ATT phone via this site since they've cracked down hard on 3rd party unlocks.
