IMEI Doctor

SCAM BEWARE! Lots of good articles and referrals through PC-related blogs. Request for services from July 2020, paid. They couldn't complete the services (THE BAIT), because the lock was on the cloud and not on the phone, so credit offered, in lieu of purchase price for the same service for other devices, or the difference for a level up services to unlock the phone. Different paid. Since November 2020, a maximum of 3 months was guaranteed. But to date, April 2021, nothing has come of it. Email follow up, a couple of times (and nobody to call - obviously). SAME Generic reply and update - "Hi,
Thanks for your email.

Your device was issued to our iCloud supplier on the 10th Nov as per your order status page and is currently in process, once it has been unlocked you will be emailed as well as the order status page being updated.

We realise these are taking a long time, unfortunately its the nature of these unlocks. Some of these units have been taking 90 days. We have been advised that as a goodwill gesture there is an option to give you credit note for the total amount you have paid for you to spend on a sim unlock for a different device if you don't want to wait that long?"

The progess has been sitting on 99% Since January 2021

Overdue - this unlock is taking a little longer than normal, we are chasing this IMEI for you and have prioritised it. We will email you and update your status accordingly when it is unlocked.

Activation Lock Premium - Current Unlocking Timeframe: 98 days, 12 hours
This is a little longer than our average because of the pandemic. Weekends are not included.

Progress of your IMEI: 99%
Estimated time remaining: IMMINENT

Got an old mini iPad Gen1 from my last that they are no longer using and we're going to throw out, and the person that set the iPad up is no longer employed there. Actually he got fired fir stealing... Gave the IMEI doctor a shot to unlock it and gave them the first payment and had to wait 3 days. Finally got an email from them stating:

"We attempted to remove your iCloud locked device from the previous owner's account but were unable to do so as the iCloud Account associated with the (F7NN********) is unfortunately marked by Apple as Lost/Stolen. This does NOT necessarily mean that the has been reported lost to the carrier - this is something totally different. It means the device/iCloud account has been reported using FindMyiPhone.

As stated on the website before purchase it is not possible to remove the Activation Lock on iDevices which are in Apple's iCloud lost/stolen database using our Clean service. There may be a premium service which can unlock this device in future - if there is you will be informed as soon as it is available via email."

Got another email that said:
"We are pleased to announce that iCloud Premium service is finally available. This removes the iCloud account for all devices, including barred ones.

Due to the popularity of the service timeframe is expected to take 30 days.

The price of this service is £99.99 but as a previous Clean iCloud purchaser your previous vouchers have been discounted for you leaving £49.99 to pay.

Simply follow the link to purchase:"

This is a scam if I ever seen one, and I am disappointed in myself that I fell for it. I threw the damn iPad away in disgust, and know now do not ever purchase or receive an apple product that is locked. Get it unlocked beefier purchasing.
