I purchased unlock service for iPhone 6 on 6/27/17 for $106. On 8/2/17, the unlock was still pending and I wrote asking for a status update. I received a non-specific, wishy-washy response. When 60+ days passed without progress, I requested a refund. I emailed the company 9/3,9/13,9/18,9/21, and 10/11 making this request. NO ONE will even acknowledge receipt of my correspondence. As soon as I can find their postal address (which is probably purposely secreted somewhere in the small print) I am reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. Maybe that will get their attention.
On the 2017-08-23 20:09:59 I payed for a service I thought would be quick with no issues. Today, not only is their customer service ignoring me, but also threaten me to block my mail for sending too many mails.
All I want is my money back, their service is horrible. ITS A SCAM!
DO NOT GIVE YOUR MONEY AWAY... These people are savages, no compassion, no caring for their customers.
ITS A SCAM! Trust me, I would't be writing this review for no other reason that I am extremely disappointed with them ignoring my demand for a refund.
They offer 28$ unlock for Sprint USA iPhone. After you pay that, they make you wait for roughly 4 days and then they claim that you need to pay another 60$ for a confirmed unlock. Essentially you pay 100$. I have paid 100$ and its been over 2 weeks and the phone is still not unlocked.
Dont spend your money on them. They do nothing to unlock your phone, they dont respond to their messages and initially they say its $28 dollars and then they ask for more. Ive paid about $100 and my phone is still locked. Ive messaged them about a refund and they have yet to respond. Its been about 3 weeks almost a month and nothing. Youll see and wish like I do that you wouldve listened to the reviews.
During order process nowhere are you advised that you´re only paying for a preorder, nor that later you´ll have to pay an additional even a higher price to complete the service, I looked prior at some reviews and somehow they have some positive reviews, maybe written by their own people, but please be advised, it´s a ripoff, don´t waste your money
They are burglars and don't trust with anything they say...
Things change after and before order, waiting for ever and more money appear after you make the order (another additional fees)
They said MY phone (I applied to iCloud unlock -iPhone 5-) is stolen and I only forget the password!
Big liars!
They took my money and sent me an email receipt. There was a link to check status and to this day it has not changed. These people are not legit. Keep your money and spend it elsewhere.
Took 80 dollars from me with without unlocking my device. I waited 30 days and the status on their website said that it was the Delay due to issues with Sprint. I asked for a refund several times and have not been able to contact this company. Its a total scam beware!
Telling me have to wait weeks and then no response. Going to a dispute process now!
Definitely not trustworthy nor customer friendly!
I ordered a unlock on my Sprint phone on August 7,2017. After I made both payments to this company, and the 100 % meter showed that the unlock was complete, I reached out to the company on numerous occasions, and as of September 18,2017 I still have a locked phone and they have not responded to me on my emails. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY! RIP OFF. I have contacted my bank to dispute the charges since they will not get back to me. I was more than willing to allow them the time to fix this. But, once a company does not respond to you, it simply means that they are ripping you off. Not going to happen. I have my attorney filing paperwork as we speak.
You think you are paying £20 for a phone unlock but then discover there is an additional charge of £49.99 to complete the service...
Avoid Avoid Avoid.
Thiefs! Stole my money, first i purchase 20 to get my phone unlocked, they asked for 4 more so they would know my network which i stupidly paid and now they are asking for another 66! I won't pay and they won't give me my money back or respond to any of my emails
It's been a month and still just says something is wrong. We will let you know. Not way to contact. This is a total scam! DO NOT USE THIS WEB SITE!
I have placed an order for factory unlock my Iphone7 (Sprint Carier) wide my order No.#******* dated 10-09-17. But Still neither unlock nor refund
Beware, guys, fraud, and fake. You will lose your money don't trust them. Never trust those thefts. Upfront sale and do nothing to you. You will run and chase them for a long time at the end you will lose money and time and your phone.

Ето съобщението което получих от тях:
"You have a pre-order, therefore as soon as the service is up and running you will be advised as indicated at the time of purchase:)
As your network is a pre-order currently ( not available) we expect an update back for its resumption in the next few weeks
https://iphoneimei.net/terms-and-conditions
If an unlock is temporarily unavailable, it will be offered as a "pre-order" at a fixed price of £19.99. Your IMEI will be automatically submitted once the unlock becomes available. If the unlock cost is greater than £19.99, you will be prompted to make a final payment. Please note that pre-orders are non-refundable."
I don't know why this company has a rating of 4 stars. They must either pay people for positive reviews or have a lot of bot reviews whatever the case may be I am here to tell you guys NOT TO GIVE UR MONEY TO THEM they are Simply a scam. I tried using their services as a test for my purposely locked iPad and put this possibility of icloud unlocking to the test and of course it failed.
3 days later they will claim you device is blacklisted by apple even though it is NOT at least not in my case as I said already it is mine and used as a test.
IF you have an icloud locked device only the previous owner can unlock it for you or unless you have proof of purchase.
If not then sadly you will just have to live with it because IPHONEIMEI will never be able to unlock anything for you nor will anyone else so don't bother.
So there you have it DON'T buy anything from them they will simply do nothing and tell you bogus reasons why they can't unlock your phone and cannot refund you.
I am in the process of disputing to my credit card company and their payment processor, you should do the same if you even purchased anything from them.
Same experience as many others - this company is a total scam.
Took me £20 for an unlocking service which is not available (as a pre-order, as they say)!
I advise everyone who was unfortunate victim of this company - ask your bank to cancel the transaction.
This is just big scammer
Living on cheating people, this charged me 20 UK pound and after one day they ask for another 100 UK pounds. Bank also refuse to refund and want to me to change the credit card for around 40 pound, my card is 2 weeks only and i have to change it because of those scammer
These guys took $54.00 to unlocked imei: ************** but it has not been unlocked and no one is answering from support... SCAM... SCAM... SCAM...
Answer: No they don't. They just take your money and not unlocked anything.
