I paid $39 to see about getting the iPhone lock removed from my 6S iPhone. They responded back a few days later saying that I would have to pay another $327 on top of the money I already gave them to get the iPhone unlocked. So it's essentially $366 to get you iPhone unlocked. I can get a new iPhone 6S off eBay cheaper than that.

One star is too many in my view! In today's world a company stands and falls ( if not immediately but before long) by conning it's customers. In my experience iphoneapprovedunlock is one such case in particular.
After purchasing an iPhone 7+ off eBay that was advertised as 'iCloud locked' I had in the days before read that it was possible to have this reversed and found a trusted company on trust pilot. So with the confidence that this phone could be unlocked for the further fee of £35 I bid and won.
I went to the iphoneapprovedunlock.com site and gave the phones invidual code and after asking for the reasonable upfront payment no other reference to further payments was lauded to.
I waited the standard 24 hrs then finally received a confirmation email saying that my iPhone was ready to be unlocked... AFTER I MADE A FINAL PAYMENT OF £284.98 (305.99 in total).

Leads me to believe that all positive reviews of this company are created via a multitude of bots.

Took my money
August 28, 2019

Took my money. Waited for them to unlock my phone and they gonna respond and say they can't because I am still under contract. That is the purpose of getting a phone locked because it is under contract. If it wasn't I could get it unlocked for free. Straight rip off, I would never use them again or recommend anybody use them

SCAM.
March 20, 2023

Every couple days they claimed they were almost done. I ordered the Premium unlock service. Alas, a month later, it's still not done and they will not refund. It's a SCAM. The reason they will not refund? Because "my phone is locked". Get this, they can't unlock my phone because it's locked?! Curious.

Scam?
August 11, 2020

If I could, I would give no stars! STAY AWAY! DO NOT USE THIS SITE! The website requests a $39.99 pre-order fee. Their Terms and Conditions state that they may ask for a larger sum once their scan of the phone is complete. What they do not share is that the extra fee may be upwards of an additional $330, more that 900% of the Pre-Order amount. I tried to unlock an iPhone 5 and was expected to pay a total of $366 to complete the iCloud unlock. Not even a carrier unlock! Mind you the iPhone 5 is worth less than $100. I have now wasted $40 because I will not pay an extra $327 on a phone worth less than $100 and they refuse to refund even though an increase of 900% of the original fee was never mentioned in the Terms and Conditions. In my opinion, this website is a huge SCAM.

It's A Scam! The Price Not Clear In The Beginning
October 27, 2022

It's a total scam! They are unclear that you are going to pay more after! They will charge $35 at first stating that they will unlock your phone then just wait for the unlock code then they will email you after 24 hours saying you have to pay another $99 for the unlock code! What a total waste of money for unlocking phone! MAKE CLEAR HOW MUCH YOU ARE CHARGING IN THE FIRST PLACE! You are ripping off somebody's money! Don't know how you come up with a 4.8 reviews of made up reviews from other people! Hiding those who you got ripped off!

Once you pay the initial fee, don't expect the phone to be unlocked as it won't be. But you will receive a email requesting another £70 to complete the unlock. These guys are an absolute joke.
