I am tired of waiting for you to answer your emails. If you are not willing to carry out the things that you got paid to do, at least reply and say something about it.

Don't trust these guys because it is all a scam! The pre-order is to get your card and they send you another email to get you to pay again to unlock it. There's no way around unlocking these iPhones through these websites. Don't trust the Positive Review links...

Unlock for US Tmobile iphone 6
September 30, 2015

Took a long... time. Like 2 weeks, but it's unlocked with Apple database now apparently. Thanks. Oh yeah and the initial charge is deceptive, because the additional charge is 3 times what was advertised. Yeah thanks

The communication was great at the beginning, where I would get an update every Monday about the status of my order. However, after the third week I would stop getting those e-Mails. After 2 weeks had passed (it was stated that they would do the unlock within 10 working days) I have been told they would prioritize my order and that it would be done within a few days. However, they could not keep up with the promise and it took them about 6 weeks to get my order done eventually. However, I must admit that they delivered what they promised, even though it was a way too late. Thus 4 Stars from me since this is definitely not a fake site.

Amazing service
September 28, 2015

The service was amazing, I was so worried about using this website and putting my card details in because I was unsure of the website. But now I would recommend this web page to anyone that is looking to get their mobile phone unlocked.

Not so good
September 27, 2015

I wanted to get my iPad iCloud activation taken off and like it was stated on their website they would go £19.99. Then couple days later they said it was cost another £39.99 so I paid that too. After couple more days they said my iPad was reported lost/stolen. I called apple and asked them to make sure and they said it's not reported lost or stolen. Officialiphoneunlock never responded to 4 of my email nor answered my phone calls. I called them everyday for a whole week Monday thru Friday. I will never use this website and again tell all my friends and family to stay away
