BAIT & SWITCH!
July 22, 2018

Has you enter country and carrier, takes you to next screen and asks you for your phone model and then a price shows up. For me $28, which I thought was a good deal. Then you key in your IMEI number, click Unlock Now and then still shows $28, in large print, with small print below indicating $175 on completion!?

You can do it yourself
December 9, 2018

They advertised it only takes 3 days, on the 3rd day after payment my phones unlock status was just at 29% so I went online to see reviews for iPhoneIMEI.net and was a bit disappointed that they have very bad reviews. But someone's review was helpful. He said 5 days after paying, there was no result so he went straight to his carrier to have his phone unlocked in 2 days.

In my case, 3 days after paying with unlock status at 29%, I went online to my carriers site and had my phone unlocked for FREE.

It is however worthy to note that my phone had no active contract (all sums paid up) and has clean IMEI.

What I thought was the purchase of an unlock service for my iPhone turned out to be just a deposit. When I waited for the service time to have my unlock completed, the site mentioned I needed to pay more money to complete the transaction!

Not transparent at all!

These people are thieves. Omg I should have read reviews before paying.
It said $28 only to track the order and see a pending $91 payment.

I am so mad cos I guessed I wouldn't get a refund and from the comments I strongly doubt it.

I have get my Iphone 7 Plus unlocked in 9 days and, so far, it is working perfectly.
However, the price offered to the customer for the service is utterly misleading, as you have to paid first an amount that is shown as the total price for unlocking the phone. But once you have paid for it and once you receive the notification that you have successfully unlocked the phone, you discover that you have only paid for a fraction of it, and that you need to pay like three or four times more for the service to be completed. I feel disappointed with this bit, and I think you should change this marketing gimmick because you are simply turning the good and effective service you are offering into an outrageous deceit.

Pricey and takes some time (about a week) but these guys successfully unlocked a USA sprint iphone 6+, which i then connected to verizon USA. I walked into Verizon and walked out 10 mins later with no hassle, verizon guy just entered the imei into verizons database, installed verizon sim card, and i left good to go. I couldn't find many reviews that directly addressed US citizens getting their phones unlocked for use within the US, these guys delivered this scenario for me. Little apprehensive since they're overseas but they did what they promised. Great job.

As Promised!
May 27, 2018

Very impressed I was kept informed all the time of the progress and at 75% unlock I had an email saying it was unlocked. The iPhone works perfectly and Im very happy with the service. Would definitely recommend it. Thanks for an excellent service.

I did buy an Iphone6 unlock service which wasn't done due to fact that they told me phone is reported stolen. They asked me for a proof of aquisition and told me they can offer me a premium service (very expensive by the way) if I don't have this proof. I did send them the proof 3 weeks after and they didn't reply until now. See screenshots with date attached. It looks like a scam schema

Do it
April 13, 2017

I thought it might've been a scam but I'm glad I gave it a chance. The price dropped for the unlock from $83 to $63 which is awesome and it said it would take 1-4 days to unlock and it was unlocked in a day and a half. I would highly recommend this site to ANYONE over going to a cell phone store and them over charging you. You get your money's worth and you are able to see the progress of the unlock. Thank you for unlocking my phone!

Company asked me to pay $28 to unlock my iphone 6 as a pre-order also told me to wait until unlocking open, once open we will process your request, now unlocking is open and company asking me another $118 to unlock my iphone, which is completely cheating... this company should be banned...

Started with basic service but financial account lock prevented the basic unlock. FYI - basic service can be done yourself if you know the process. Upgrade to Premium service removed the lock and placed the IMEI number on a white list to prevent future lock-up.
I'd use them again if the situation arose. A++

Scam
October 9, 2017

They offer 28$ unlock for Sprint USA iPhone. After you pay that, they make you wait for roughly 4 days and then they claim that you need to pay another 60$ for a confirmed unlock. Essentially you pay 100$. I have paid 100$ and its been over 2 weeks and the phone is still not unlocked.

I was kind of skeptical at first, but I trusted the reviews written & gave it a shot. The only thing is it was time consuming it did take some time for unlocking to process. Once unlocking began the ability to track it was neat.

They do not unlock iCloud and advertise that they do. I was given an iPad that was iCloud locked and they refused to unlock it because find my iPhone wasnt signed out of, therefore it is in a lost/stolen state, or so they say. Dont waste your money.

IPhone IMEI works
July 26, 2017

The unlock service for my iphone worked like they said. They said it would take 10-20 business days and it took like 15 so it worked just like they said and im happy with the service i paid for. Note that some carriers take less time than others or possibly more time but probably no more than 20 days.

Worked as promised
October 26, 2017

My phone was unlocked within the time frame promised. The only thing was that since I am in Canada, I was unsure of which currency the price was to be charged. Only when I got my credit card bill did I know the price quoted was in US Dollars. That would have been nice to know from the beginning.

I was hesitant with any online technology but this iPhone service was fantastic. They unlocked my iphone6s at not only a great price but very quickly. When it was stolen and locked again via apple, they unlocked again without hesitation. Great customer service - highly recommend.

Still not unlocked
October 26, 2017

Not real happy with the service as my phone is still not unlocked even after following all the instructions on the email. Spent all this money and still not even able to switch services will now have to go somewhere else and spend more money to get this unlocked.

Fraudsters
January 15, 2019

12/31/18
They will charge you claiming they can unlock your phone even i cloud or any other unlock you need then they ask for more money and once you pay again they will tell you sorry we cant unlock your phone and when you ask for refund you going to receive the following email:
Unfortunately as per our terms and conditions, handsets which do not meet the unlocking criteria are ineligible for a card refund. You have been refunded with a credit note to use against the premium service when it returns, or alternatively you can use it for a friend or family member who needs to unlock a different handset.
Kind regards,
IPhoneIMEI Team
