Very dissatisfied! Can get it unlocked cheaper than going through the website Vodafone recommended, which when my contracts finished even though I've been with them over 20 years I will be leaving Vodafone!

Skeptical at first; definitely worth it
December 13, 2023

I was really skeptical at first that this wouldn't work but I got my unlock code within 3 days! It was cheaper and faster than the other sites i looked at, but definitely worth it

It really works and totally worth it!
December 13, 2023

I had just bought a brand new straightalk phone for my daughter. Straight talk wouldn't unlock it without either a 3month service plan or I had to pay 300$. I google unlock hacks for straightalk and stumbled upon this site. I was hesitant at first. A 100$ is a lot of money these days when everyone is trying to survive but it was way better then buying 3 months service plan for a service that doesn't work in my area. So I said why not try it. I was not disappointed. It took a couple of days. Checking the status every few hours and biting my nails hoping it wasn't a scam. But 2 days later I got the unlock code in my email. Followed the directions and now I have a happy kid and saved a great deal of money. I have already started telling my friends and know I can trust this site to do what they say they can do. Thank you because I don't know what I would have done if this didn't turn out. You not only unlocked the device but you also saved me a ton of money I can use elsewhere. Thanks guys you rock!

Good service
December 10, 2023

The service was good but I had to wait almost a week before receiving the codes to unlock my device. Direct Unlocks kept me upto date with what was happening on the site rather than emailing which would have been better.

Overall experience was really good,but price was a shock to pay £11.99 and think that was payment,and then to be asked for another £36 I thought overall a bit expensive so wasn't happy with the price.

Great
December 9, 2023

The service is highly appreciated. Especially when breaking up with phone companies after so many years and they are not trying to give you your device. Or even release your number. I had issues with T-Mobile for many years now and it was just that time to let them go. Well they didn't want to let my phone number go or my devices that were paid off. It might have taken a few days but I am very please I was able to keep my phones that i spent hundreds of dollars on. When I has a concern about the unlocking process and i needed to reach out to support they answered and answered with a valued explanation.

Iphone 11 unlock
December 8, 2023

I didnt catch the fine print on the first page of the initial unlocking. You should really put the total cost up front. But I am pleased with the outcome and total cost.
Thank you

Waste of time/money
December 13, 2023

Paid a total of 80 dollars to have my phone unlocked then get hit with a $255 dollar charge to finish my process. I will never use they scaming $#*! again. Won't even refund my money back, applied a 50 dollar credit to a service I will not use. TERRIBLE

Still Not working. They should know my phone is not compatible with AT&T as I told them the carrier I want to use but they lure me to pay for an expensive service to unlock my phone then throw itaway because it's outdated. Bad experience and waste of money. Scammers and fraud company

Good company a little high priced
December 4, 2023

They failed to tell you that after you make a first payment. There's an extra $50 payment. I didn't care for that. And I didn't care for the wait time But overall i'm satisfied customer because it did work!
