So initially I was worried as I had paid the initial fee and then was asked to pay extra. To add to this the process actually took a few days. HOWEVER, you do receive a tracking which works very well and if you do have any queries I found the customer service team very helpful. Overall I would recommend as long as you are able to wait a few days.
Hi Anna,

Bought a second hand Samsung S20 as a Xmas present for my father in law but released it was locked to Tesco. To be able to put his Sky sim in it, I contacted you to get the device unlocked. Within 24 hours it was all done with ease.

Really easy to do and really happy with the service but I personally am not a fan of paying money and then having to pay more money, I would prefer an up front sum as it feels quite scammy to have paid about 23 quid for an analysis and then told I'll have to pay 30 quid more for the unlock. If they had said 50 quid upfront I still would have paid it so its just not a great thing for me personally, however when they couldn't unlock my 1st phone they gave me a credit, which I then used on my second phone as it had an indefinite use by date so that was nice. And its much easier than going and trying to find somewhere that unlocks phones its all done remotely from the comfort of your sofa and doesn't take too long either.
Hello Miss Boyce!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I completely understand how multiple payments can feel a bit frustrating. Just to clarify, the £23.99 for the Eligibility Check and the £36 for the Unlocking Service are standard processes that ensure we can provide the most accurate unlock for your Samsung S10. All costs are laid out clearly on the checkout page, which I hope helps make the process more transparent.
It's fantastic to hear that you found our service easy and that you utilized your credit note from your first unlock! We aim to make everything as simple as possible for you, and I’m glad our customer service met your expectations.
If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out. We’re here to help!
Best regards!
I want a full refund I called my bank to dispute both charges I'm so tired of this give me my money back and it's 12/8/24 and still didn't get a refund or anything
Hi Christopher,
I completely understand your frustration, and I'm here to help! I see you've made payments for an Eligibility Check and a Standard Unlock for your iPhone 16 Pro Max. Currently, your order status is "In Process," and the unlocking process should be completed within about 6 days, 23 hours.
As per our policy, all costs are clearly outlined during checkout, and unfortunately, eligibility checks are non-refundable since we've already performed the necessary service to confirm your phone's compatibility.
I encourage you to stick with us as we work to finalize the unlock process for your device! If you have any questions or need further assistance, please let me know—I'm here to help you through this.
Take care!
Although skeptical about the processing timelines, ended up satisfied with the results in under 6 days from placing the order. Excellent services on the whole

This is my second time using Direct Unlock. I bought a phone off Facebook Market thinking it was compatible with my phone service. Turns out it wasn't unlocked. First thing I did was go to Direct Unlocks. Easy and reliable service. It did took awhile but it got unlocked. I can know for sure next time when I need unlocking I can go to Direct Unlocks.
