PERMANENT FACTORY UNLOCK CODE SERVICE >>> is this legit?
I run across some websites and even ebay advertise "PERMANENT FACTORY UNLOCK CODE SERVICE" . I wonder if this is scam or legit service... The cost may vary from $35 up to $100 each code. Must provide the phone IMEI then they will provide the unlock code that set the iphone unlock forever even running update the lastest iOS.
is anyone use this service before and does it real ?
My at&T bill to high I just want to use the iphone to t-mobile for cheaper cost.

I never heard is working, always heard is scam...
Your phone is lovk on apple system, it needs to be unlock on apple system, not by code...

Yes, I have used a seller on eBay and have unlocked over 30 devises in the last few weeks alone. Paying with Pay Pal also protects you in case there is an issue.
Look here. Unlocking my iphone with at&t question
Sorry, wrong.

Reading their ad, they are closed for the holiday. That may be why. I have used them as well as other mods, and their service is great. Try again later.
Here is a site that can check your imei to see if it is unlocked after you get the email telling you the procedure.
I can vouch for them, reputable seller.
You can also use the same site to see what carrier a phone is locked to.

Thanks blkcadi for the useful IMEI checker. Very scary what information is attached to the IMEI number, glad to see my iPhone 4 unlock did actually work officially.

The one I use and linked to is running really slow, but it if you click the "imei' below where you enter your imei, it will load. *does that make sense?* lmao

Tested it again today Simon, I think their site is overloaded I keep getting the message "IMEI not found or server overloaded!" then seconds later the info for my phone appears... Might have to try a few times I guess :/
