Le service se fait en 2 acceptations de paiement,
Une 1re consistant à accepter la vérification de la possibilité ou non du déblocage de l'iPhone, et
La 2de consistant à accepter le déblocage une fois que la vérification de déblocage s'est avérée positive.
On est donc un peu anxieux de payer une 1re fois et de se voir dire que le déblocage ne pourrait pas être effectué... Mais tout s'est bien passé...

SCAMMERS
December 21, 2024

Scam Likely

SCAM ALERT. BEWARE- THE CHECKOUT PAGE SAYS YOU ARE PAYING TO UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE TO USE WITH ANY SIM; BUT AFTER YOU PAY, THEY WILL SAY THAT THE FIRST CHECKOUT IS ONLY TO CONFIRM ELIGIBILITY AND YOU MUST PAY OVER 200% MORE FOR UNLOCKING. IF YOU QUESTION THEM, THEY WILL OFFER POLITE LIES TO CONVINCE YOU THAT YOU DID NOT READ THE PAGE/TERMS. TAKE SCREENSHOTS. When I first made the request, their site said based on my IMEI, my phone could be unlocked through their site and the purchase page said $24.99 for the unlocking request. It also said the average unlock was instant. After I paid the $24.99, the page said it would be an additional $54 to complete the unlocking, it said I was at 50% progress, and the average unlock for my device and service was instant. I paid the additional $54. The progress reset to 0% and has not moved in 7 days. L have screenshots of all of this. When I used the live support on day 1 to find out why they were asking for the $54 payment, they responded with a lie saying that there was a description of the "eligibility stage" before I checked out. When I used the live support feature to request a refund after 5 days, they responded almost 2 days later threatening to blacklist my device. I FELL FOR THIS SCAM! 3 BLATANT LIES- 1)THEY HAVE A TAB WHICH LISTS THE "UNLOCKING" FEE BY CARRIER BUT IF YOU PAY THAT FEE THEY WILL CALL IT AN ELIGIBILITY CHECK AND CHARGE YOU MORE FOR THE UNLOCK; 2) IF YOU PAY THE INITIAL FEE THEY WILL SEND YOU AN EMAIL SAYING YOUR "UNLOCK IS READY" BUT THEN THEY WILL CHARGE YOU MORE AND THE UNLOCK WILL NOT BE READY; 3)THE BOTTOM OF THE TRACKING PAGE STATES THEY RESPOND TO ALL LIVE SUPPORT INQUIRIES IN 30 MINUTES 365 DAYS PER YEAR, WHEN IT CAN TAKE DAYS. Worst of all it's been 7 days- I politely requested a refund after days of waiting for an unlock and/or a response to my 2nd inquiry; THEY RESPONDED BY THREATENING TO BLACKLIST MY DEVICE. Again, if you decide to risk trying this company, TAKE SCREENSHOTS in case you need them to get your money back legally. They deserve negative stars but 1 is the lowest.

Dear Charlene Stokes,

I’m really sorry to hear about the frustrations you're experiencing with unlocking your iPhone SE. I understand how this situation can be frustrating, especially when you've already invested time and money.

To clarify, the initial payment of $24.99 was for the Eligibility Check, which is a standard procedure to ensure your phone can be unlocked. Following that, the $54 payment covers the Standard Unlock. All costs were communicated during the checkout process, and I assure you that we aim to facilitate the unlocking process as quickly as possible.

Your order status of "In Process" indicates that we're still actively working on your request. While I understand the waiting period can be unsettling, I encourage you to stay patient as we get closer to completion. We're committed to providing you with the best service possible.

If you have any more questions or need immediate assistance, feel free to reach out. We're here for you!

Best,
Charlotte

Great service!
December 17, 2024

Unfortunately I was in the position of having a phone that was locked due to a death. I'd looked up all the options on how to do it and came across Direct unlocks and took the plunge and it was easy ….and quick!
There was an initial part to check that the phone wasn't stolen etc which took about 20mins. I hadn't ready the small print to see that there was an additional cost after this step which was my fault. I then did the actual unlock which took approximately 24hours - there were updates throughout which was great.
All in all a great service and would definitely recommend- thank you!

Iphone 11 pro EMEA unlocked
December 17, 2024

My iphone was refurbished from the insurance claim and locked to EMEA - which nor the network provider, the insurance company or the iphone were willing to assist.
The sitejabber did this remotely for me over night whilst I was asleep. Thank you for this!

Negatives - Initially the price is promoted as 24 pounds. Then I was asked to pay another 33 pounds to actually unlock my phone - this is very misleading and I would have preferred up front cost from the beginning.

Thank you for your kind support

Hello Y Suzuki,

Thank you for your review and for sharing your experience! I'm glad to hear that your unlock was completed successfully. I completely understand your feelings about the payment structure. We do provide an Eligibility Check for £23.99, followed by the unlocking fee of £33, which is all laid out on the checkout page before purchase. This process ensures that each phone is assessed properly for compatibility.

Your feedback is valuable to us, and I’ll make sure it's passed along. If you have any more questions or if there’s anything else I can assist you with, feel free to reach out!

Best wishes,
Charlotte
