It took a long time and cost a lot more than I expected. I could have understood one of those things but not both.
100% SCAM!
I was so stupid. I SHOULD KNOW THEY ARE SCAMMERS, their paypal address is enquires(AT)paydisputes.com
I've Paid 18.00 EUR up front then asked to pay another 129,00 EUR to get the code.
They charge you £25 and the ask for another £45 to release the code, stay clear, the web site should be taken down
Had a great experience unlocking my HTC device with this website! The process was quick, and the pricing was reasonable.
After your initial payment they will request more money. DO NOT SEND THEM MORE MONEY.
If you argue with then enough, threaten bad reviews etc. They will refund you.
This site is a scam. After paying $27 for unlock code, the asked for another $87 to get the code. Stay clear of this site.
Scammers. Requesting money again. I have already payed the money. They never displayed it before. Now requesting money
Good service overall but did not say it would cost over £70 pound to unlock. It also took longer than it said but all done eventually.
Good service for those who have money.
Their service is fast and effective, but the price is a little bit high.
Disappointed at the cost, or more specifically the hidden cost added after order placed. However they did provide what was required.
Highly Satisfied with the service! Ordered an unlock code for my Sony phone and received it promptly.
After paying the £19.99 for the sim unlock you then required a further £34.20 (or what ever it was) which i didn't know anything about so I didnt pay THANKS FOR NOTHING.
How are they allowed to run.
You pay up front and then they ask for more money to unlock. Shame on you $#*!s
Took too long and website not clear about the duration to unlock and additional cost after pre unlock.
Add says 19.99 then you add vat 4.00 so 23.99 ok. BUT then you get bill 40.00 plus vat to unlock phone F----ing rip off.
SO FAR ALL GOOD SEE HOW LONG IT TAKES.
I believe they are paying people to write positive reviews cause they are 100% scammers. They advertise they only charge a small fee which is what they use to attract people into their net. When u pay them they leave you waiting 2 days and then email you saying that the phone has been checked and is ready to be unlocked but they need more money and bla bla bla. You end up paying them more money that your provider would charge you to unlock ur device but you say fine let's pay I don't wanna waste more time and there is where ur nightmare will start. After more than a week I got an email from them saying that they were experiencing some delays because of the Covid 19 pandemic ( it's 2024 fully out of the pandemic) and you start asking urself if u have been scammed and go online trying to get more info about them and if you are smart enough to go read the negative reviews you will find out the truth. Positive reviews are made mostly from people who have never reviewed anything online ( that's why I think they are bribed to do so) when negative reviews are from people who have already reviewed other services. So now after waiting a full month for a refund ( their terms and conditions) another excuse: they say the phone provider said the phone can't be unlocked so I don't qualify for a refund but they are so kind hearted that are willing to give me 50% of it because they had some processing costs. All this is totally untrue because my phone provider already confirmed me that there is no issue in unlocking my phone and also officialsimunlock confirmed they could do it but needed more money which I paid. Don't fall for them go to your local store and do it personally. Hope I did help someone and if u did get scammed escalate it further.
All in all, the product was effective and served it's purpose.
The only issue is that the price was a bit high and delivery fee so high
Be prepared to pay extra cost. I thought the whole process would be done for £19.99 but had to pay a further £52 to complete the process.
It was the time and final price which after I got to the final point it was to late to revert to another company.at least it all worked in the end.
Answer: 100 percent a scam; morally, legally, colloquially speaking.
Answer: No I would advise you to go somewhere else. This company is a total ripoff.
Answer: You didn't realize it because officialsimunlock.com didnt want you to realize it, at least until after they reeled you in with a first "prepayment".
