We monitor reviews for authenticity
Same story as many other negative reviews. They operate with a hidden 42$ additional fee, you will find out about AFTER paying a non-refundable $28.
After a complaint the additional fee is reduced to $32, and after another complaint they offer a solution where you can buy other services from them for the money you already have paid.
imeidoctor.com, DrSimUnlock, and AppleiPhoneUnlock.uk seem to be run by the same people and are fraudulent sites, do not use their services and report the sites to reportfraud.ftc.gov, https://www.actionfraud.police.uk and to your local bank.
I requested the unlocking of an apple watch 6 months ago, order number FHLSH3GQHDX7. Of course I had to pay once 19.99, then once 30, and one last time 49.99. Each time they are certain that they will unlock it, I should have stopped from the start, but I had started to pay and they said that they were not refunding... In short, my watch is not not unlocked, I have no news, run away from this site at all costs.
They don't unlock anything majority of the good reviews you read are made up I tested them out by purposely locking one of my iPhone to see if they could unlock it and it took them 3 days to tell me that it was lost/stolen and that they didn't have the service to unlock that and the following day they had the ability to lock it that was fast, but also a lie to get more money so I send a email asking for a refund and they ask me to show proof that it wasn't stolen/ lost and I replied with the phone is mine I purposely locked it to see if they guys could unlock it and I haven't gotten a response since they they said they sent a refund never got it, but when you read further they tell you that you have to send proof from apple that it's not unlocked so they never sent me a email you might see duplicate photo but they have the time and date so you can see how they are scamming people
They ask for more payments, every time a problem, an extra payment, they do not unlock anything and do not refund by telling you that your device is stolen or lost
This service is a scam. After the first payment the ask for a second one, over 40 dollars. Then they will make you wait 2-3 days and they will tell you that your device is marked as stolen. My device was not stolen and not marked as stolen in any imei search service. After their "service" the device was marked as stolen! This is what they do... Then they will mail you to tell you that because the device is stolen it can not be unlocked. If you ask your money back they do not answer but they send you a coupon for other services. If you insist for a refund they will suggest another premium service for about 100 dollars to unlock the device in... 30 days! If you have money for trash... pay them.
PLEASE WATCH OUT
This site is a complete waste of time and all they promise is total lies. They also make you pay twice (second payment is actually a hidden cost and is super high). They took my money, FAILED TO UNLOCK MY PHONE, then now THEY DON'T WANT TO REFUND ME! Stay away from this site if you care about your money, complete crooks!
My request for sim unlock was done a few days after I gave the first review. I must apologise for being too hasty to tag the company as fraudulent. My phone works perfectly well now but the company still asked for a good review on another platform for a 10-pound prize; this was never fulfilled. Overall, customer service is nothing close to perfect and don't be surprised when you're not satisfied.
I requested for a Sim unlock and was asked to pay 23.99 pounds, afterwards, a bill of 32.99 was requested and later reduced to 22.99. I made the payment and waiting time was scheduled for 2 days 17 hours, I patiently waited but after the expiration, nothing happened. Now I get a page that everyone has always complained about ( Picture attached) IMEI: 355317087354238
Wait to unlock my ipad air. Its about a year,,, scam place. By email just wait and wait for a long long time
Ordered unlock September 24 of 2019 it is October 22 2020 and unlock was never done. Was sent automated messages when I questioned anything. After a year they claimed they don't offer the service and no refund just offer other services I'm not in need of. You will not get your unlock or your money back. Couple hundred down the drain because you pay first payment then they email you twice saying it's more!

Appleiphoneunlcok.uk.
They told me they can unlock iCloud for my iPhone, I paid 28$, they asked for additional 32$, they couldn't provide any service, unfortunately they reject making refund and my money gone, after that they do not respond to my email as well, completely fake site.
This is a fraudulent company. Sell you an unlocking service and then mention the cost was to prvide some information only (info already available for free on thousands of sites). Ask for more money to unlock. No confidence in them. This is not mentioned anywhere on there site or terms. They clearly scam you for more money. Stay away. I will be going through the leagl process to get a refund.
They will keep on asking more money once they charge you and at the end they will tell you they can't do anything and no refund. Its a big scam site, stay away.
It doesn't work more than 6 months ago and still no response! Not even a voucher to use on another service, they never answered
My mum has a ipad. She had a brain injury and can't remember any passwords to get into the pad. Paid the premium rate. 1 year on still not done! You feted vouchers which are useless!
Answer: Same as Hermant A. They charged me 27, then 46, then after 3 days said my device couldnt be unlocked. Then 3 days later they offered me a 'premium service' for an extra 30! I did not pay the extra 30 and since then they have never replied to my emails. Terrible. Avoid.
Answer: Terrible, they reply to initial email with request for further money and if you won't pay they ignore every other email sent
Answer: You only get a voucher, no real money back. They are scammers, avoid them as the pest. You only get a voucher, no real money back.
