This mob is not legitimate. They will offer to unlock your phone for a modest sum and it will be completed within 1-48 hours. After receiving that money they come back and say that your unlock is ready and you will receive it after paying much more money. After that they tell you that they are working on it. Nothing happens. Every progress enquiry says that your unlock is 50% completed. If you complain enough they will eventually give you an "Unlock Code". This is supposed to be entered when you restart your phone but of course nothing happens and that is when you know that you have been scammed.
Xs max was applied on 24/09/2021. After 40 days didn't unlock the phone. I tried my level best to request for the refund but no healthy reply was given to me. I had to open a PayPal case against them to receive my money back.
Poor service not recommended at all
I order for sim unlock on July 12th to sim unlock and already withdraw 17.99 dollars. Still, they didn't update my request or even I sent several emails they even didn't reply to my email. It's completely a junk/scam. Please don't order sim unlock
Like most of the reviewers wrote, they take your Money & then don't answer your e-mails anymore. They make you take a video clip for to prove that their codes don't work. If you submit the proof, you won't hear from them again. Most people won't even bother anymore with the video evidence. Don't do business with them, you'll almost certainly loose your Money.
There site says typical 3.5 hrs it's now been 5 days still nothing I email them and get questions like what kind of phone is it what service provider all things you fill out when purchaseing there service but no service or answers to when it will be done
It happened to me too. Took my money and never responded back. Such a waste of time and money. Please take them out before more victim.
Yup as the title says, its all scam took the money, no code received and no response... do not believe any review that says that the experience was positive because its probably them leaving these positive reviews.
Check all the sent email screenshot attached.
Watch out.
It is a scam at best. Took my money, gave me a countdown to when I should receive a code, expired and then no replies to my emails. Dont believe the reviews - all fake
They provided an unlock code which didn't work. Basically don't reply to any follow up emails you send them. Even lost the paypal dispute. So don't think you will be safe using paypal on their site. Be warned and stay away from them!
Same experience as others. I paid and waited over 10 days. I kept emailing them asking for update or ETA and never got any response back.
It's a scam. Simple. I paid. Waited 48 hours. Emailed. Then emailed again. And again. And again. And gave up.
Be carful abut this service they steal money, I purchased service for 26$ and after one day they sent me message to pay 97$ they said because the phone expensive, and when I sack them for my refund they didn't gave it to me they said preorder service
It has been over 35 days and still no word from Sim-unlock. I paid for the service on May 31th, phone is still not unlocked, and no one replied to my emails. Is this even legit? I want my phone unlocked or my money back.
It's a SCAM. I never received the code. I asked for a refund but nothing happened. A waste of time and money. Before buying from them I looked for reviews. There are over 1000 good reviews on TrustPilot ALL WROTE BY THEMSELVES. Don't get fooled.
I waited over 72 hours with more than 2 emails out with no response. The customer service is terrible with this company STAY AWAY!
I have I phone 6s, I order for unlock 6s. They received money on 04.05.2020, but still date no response. I post mails also for response. There is no response. Please don't order to this site. This is a gambling scam site. I attach my order also here.
Hello friends, i am just updating this scam, rip off, and un human solidary website which claims to have great prices on unlocking services, i do not want to explain that much because i am so unhappy with their customer service that they do not deserve my hate or love, i just want you to see how garbage and unprofessional these people are are human beings.
We paid 66.00 dollars to unlock are phone and we waited more then the 5 days waiting time and we never got any emails response back at all and we e waited for at least two weeks with nothing
Took my money & nearly TWO WEEKS waiting and STILL NO CODE. They didn't bother to reply to my query. So much for "Average waiting time 19 hours"!. I had used them before and it was a similar experience except they did send me a code but it wasn't the right one. They were very slow to respond to emails. On that occasion they eventually refunded the money. I should have learned from that experience! STAY AWAY!
I sent them an IMEI for an Iphone XR. They responded with an email for a completely different IMEI (For an Iphone 6)
Sent about one email a week for 4 weeks, never get a response.
Note that other customers say same thing.
Stay away!
Answer: Dial the following code as if you are making a call *#06# Then a window displays with the IMEI number. Write the numbers down (carefully to ensure accuracy). When completing the order form, use the first IMEI number (type carefully to ensure accuracy).
Answer: It's not a scam. Mine took 7 days and I have phone service from my new phone company. I am grateful the price is very low compared to other phone unlocking sites.
