I requested an unlock on the 27th September and after continues occasions of being fobbed off by getting told the delay was with the network I decided to request a refund. This is when I started to get ignored. But conveniently the unlock was completed after I raised a complaint with the card payment provider. I would never use this company again.

Good service
November 1, 2015

At first being a bit sceptical after reading various reviews I was recommended by a friend who had used this service before so I decided to give it a go. The unlock took longer than first told but I was kept informed all the way by email. If you need your phone unlocked and it hasn't been blocked then give these a try. Thanks

Amazing Group
October 30, 2015

I first thought these guis could be a fraud when I paid and they asked me to pay again. It turns out the people are outstanding. Job well done and in a short time depending on the difficulty. For me it was two days and it all happened as they said. Their price is definitely lower thann many who advertize in the net. I recommend to any one needing an unlocking service not to look anywhere, just go straight to OfficialPhoneUnlock. They are efficient, reaonable in pricing and more importantly they do the job. Bravo to them

Job well done.
October 30, 2015

I purchased an iPhone 4s on craigslist, little did I know it was blacklisted / blocked on the carrier's system.
Official Phone Unlock did a great job unlocking it for me. It took a little longer because it was a blocked phone, but they did it in the end.
FANTASTIC SERVICE!

It worked
October 29, 2015

The service worked, which for my phone being financed and locked, other services hadn't, though it was expensive and took a few weeks. They were in contact with me and replied quickly to my emails.
