Hi Eric, I'm sorry to hear about your experience and that our support didn't meet your expectations. Our records show your unlock status as "Unlock Complete" based on your two payments: $28.99 for the Eligibility Check and $37.00 for the Standard Unlock. Please note that with the Galaxy A14 5G, if your device doesn't prompt for an unlock code, it may require a Remote USB Unlock at an additional fee. This information is outlined in our instructions and on the checkout page. If you need further help or have questions about the next steps, please let us know and we’ll be happy to assist.

Unlock form O2
January 25, 2025

I was a bit sceptical at first! But I decided to go through with the unlock.
It did take a few days and I was a little concerned but direct unlocks message me to say O2 were taking to long and they would get the code from Samsung and that would take a bit longer.
I was kept updated well through the process.

Excellent site to unlock my iPhone
January 27, 2025

I was a bit hesitant at the beginning thinking that the page could be a scam but I was happily surprised that is legit!
The service was really fast and while giving me the confidence that the site recognised my iPhone's model and both IMEIs. The service projected 3 days and was less than 12 hours at the end. Would recommend it with no doubt!
Thanks a lot!

Worked for unlocking my Samsung Galaxy S8
March 5, 2025

At the begining of the process I was not sure if this site was goung to be able to unlock my old Samsung S8 from my previous carrier (Eastlink Canada), and after being asked for the 2nd payment (the fee for actually unlocking the device), I started thinking this could be a scam, and the progress bar/percentage not moving up was not helping.

However, after less than 36 hrs later I got the email with the NCK/MCK unlock codes.

I followed the very simple instructions on the email and my phone is carrier free, and currently using a Public Mobile carrier chip.

Worked
January 16, 2025

I was a little skeptical, and thought it may have been a scam because it took 4 days to get an unlock code when their site says the codes are instant. But despite the 4 day wait, it worked as direct unlocks said it would. I was unlocking an old samsung flip phone for my 79 year old father that was locked to telus canada. Once I entered the unlock code in the phone, it instantly got cell service and I made several calls right away. Thank you direct unlocks for your service, my father is very happy with his basic low tech phone.

Great service
January 17, 2025

I needed my Huawei phone unlocked. Tried two local stores who said they could unlock my phone, both failed. I then tried Direct Unlocks and they got the phone unlocked. Did take a little longer than expected, but was kept updated with the difficulties they encountered with EE. Would recommend Direct Unlocks with no hesitation.

Total Lies
The website is a total scam
They charge $24.95 for an "Exploratory Action" to find out if its even eligible.
They will tell you everyone is eligible and the unlock should take a couple hours at most. Usually instant.
LIES.
Then they hit you up for $54 dollars more.
Only to tell you that you gotta wait 19 days for an unlock!
Support chat, first reply within 30 minutes,
Then when they know are pissed! They now that 12 hours to respond, with the same canned answer.

Then they can't unlock the phone anyway!
And they issue you a credit only to spend on their website.

RUN RUN RUN AWAY QUICKLY

Go to DrSim they unlock phones for real.

Hi Samuel,

I’m sorry to hear you’re feeling frustrated with the unlocking process for your Motorola XT2419V. I understand that it can be really disheartening when things don’t go as expected.

Regarding your payments, the $24.99 you paid was for the Eligibility Check, and the $54 was for the Standard Unlock. This two-step process is necessary for most phones, and we outline all costs during checkout to ensure transparency. Since your status is currently "Hard-Locked," it means the network has some restrictions on your device.

I encourage you to continue with the process, as sometimes the unlocking can take longer than anticipated. Our team is here to assist you, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this for you. If you have further questions, don’t hesitate to ask!

Thank you for your understanding!

Best,
Charlotte

Got Charged more than what was understood.
February 10, 2025

The service was good, fair and timely. However, initially I was told the cost would be $28.99, then I was charged and additional $50 without being told why. Other than that It was just okay.
