Scam artists. The price you pay is only to see if your phone isnt stolen, etc which you already knew! They then charge more than the carriers to unlock which Im assuming most do not. If you pay the 100 euro fee they REALLY CHARGE then you are a mug as its 25 euro in the local shops.

Of course they will write a generic reply that the check is needed, well in person shops dont need it and if you do then it should be FREE and then a clear and transparant price can be either agreed or not. In fact Im going to issue a chargeback

Hello Karl,

Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We understand that you're feeling frustrated about the process and costs associated with unlocking your Huawei P8 Lite. Please allow me to clarify the procedure we follow at MobileUnlocks.

The initial €13.49 payment you made was for the Eligibility Check, which ensures that your phone is not blacklisted, stolen, or has any other issues that might prevent an unlock from being successful. This step is crucial to avoid any unnecessary unlock attempts that are destined to fail, which can happen when certain checks are not performed beforehand.

It's worth mentioning that while some local shops may not require an Eligibility Check, our online service caters to a wide array of customers who might not have the same access to in-person services, and hence the Eligibility Check is a safeguard for both parties involved.

The actual unlocking payment is separate, and all costs are clearly outlined on the checkout page before you decide to proceed. We aim to be transparent with our pricing and procedures, and we sincerely regret any misunderstanding in this regard.

Your current order status indicates that you've paid for the Eligibility Check and are awaiting the Unlocking Payment to proceed. If you don't wish to continue with us for any reason, it's important to note that the Eligibility Check is non-refundable as stated in our terms and conditions due to the costs incurred in performing this service.

We hope that you'll consider the value of the comprehensive checks we provide and allow us to assist you further in unlocking your phone. If you have any more questions or if there's anything specific you'd like us to address, please feel free to reach out.

Best regards,
Charlotte
Customer Service Team, MobileUnlocks

Product was faulty on arrival so we sent it back, they wanted a handling fee! After arguing with them they sent the item back to us after we threatened to do a chargeback.

The item arrived back with a cracked screen and they tried to blame me for signing for the package! Agreed to replace the item with a new version and after I shipped it back refused to honour their commitment offering a 50% refund. 50% because the item was now 'old'. Whos fault is that Tinydeals?

In Ireland I would do a chargeback and get my money back, sadly my wife uses a Spanish bank and they just fobbed her off until it was too late to do anything.

Tinydeal are not honest and they have most certainly lost my business.
