After being scammed I was dubious on using another Internet service... but these guys are the real deal... they did what they said they would at a great price. Masssive thanks
Take my advice and just don't do business with them. They have a very ambiguous refund policy that they play out to rip you off. They claim they can unlock your phone in hours but I waited 10 days and got nothing. When I filed a dispute the bank unfortunately stood by their ridiculous refund policy. The scam is to make you wait until you decide to cancel and then they still keep your money even though they have done nothing! To file a claim in Small Claims Court would be successful but too time consuming. Of course they know that and if you did file I am sure they wouldn't show up. You win by default. They would have to explain exactly how they unlock these phones in court. They can't do that. They would also have to defend their refund policy against their own advertising. They won't do that either. If you have the time and get ripped off by them I strongly suggest taking them to court. You may be the one that finally puts them out of business. YouTube videos are more than likely made by them and not by satisfied customers. All of them are scripted the same. Attached is the real name of the company on my invoice. Unlock River is a DBA.
No conseguí desbloquear mi teléfono con el código que me proporcionaron. Sin embargo, no mintieron cuando dijeron que obtendrás un reembolso completo siempre que tengas evidencia de que realmente no está funcionando. Responden con amabilidad y rapidez. Me ayudaron durante todo el proceso y me ofrecieron un reembolso cuando las cosas no salieron bien. Sabrá lo bueno que es un proveedor de servicios cuando comiencen a ocurrir problemas y yo diría que lo manejaron muy bien. No dudes en probar. Investigando por qué no funcionaba el código encontré algo curioso en empresas como AT&T, mi teléfono es de ellos, no solo bloquean el dispositivo sino que le ponen uno o dos códigos más. Esto para evitar que los clientes vendan sus teléfonos, al no poder desbloquearlos, la persona se rinde y compra otro. Con esto me di cuenta de que unlockriver estaba en lo correcto y es una empresa seria y responsable, para mi antes de dar una mala reseña investigué, y encontré algo interesante
Mandaron 2 códigos y coloqué tal y como explicaron NO FUNCIONARON NADA mandaron otro código TAMPOCO FUNCIONA AHORA DE TANTAS TENTATIVAS EL CELULAR ESTÁ BLOQUEADO PARA PODER DESBLOQUEARLO...SI NO PUEDEN RESOLVER MI PROBLEMA DEVUELVAN MI DINERO!

I've had two experiences with unlock river. The first time I used their service to unlock an iPhone 7. It cost 30 euro and the ordered was completed in three days. Was a great experience. BUT! The second time... not so good. I paid them 70 euro to unlock an iPhone 6. After a month of no unlock confirmation email I emailed their customer service. They advised they were having issues with that particular phone carrier and would refund the money. However I'm not sure why they didn't just email this info in the first place. I fully believe if I hadn't inquired as to why the phone was taking so long to unlock I never would have heard from them. Even worse it's been almost a month since they said they would provide a refund and I'm still waiting. As far as I'm concerned unlock river stole 70 euro from me. Use the service at your own risk my friends. Good luck.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We pride ourselves on our commitment to helping our customers throughout the entire unlocking process. It's reassuring to hear that our team was able to assist you until your issue was resolved. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to serve you again in the future.

When I first took a website like this, suspicions were all over while I was simply desperate for dealing with this locked situation. I was so desperate that I couldnt resist ordering for the codes.
A couple of days later, I received it, and it successfully worked as it was supposed to.
I strongly feel that your service didnt only unlocked my phone, but also something else.

Applied to get phone unlocked on the 30/01/2020, payment was taken out of acc, but no confirmation or any sort of reply to this day. Emailed them a couple of days ago and still no contact from them. I'm so disappointed and just want my money refund.

Unlock River did exactly what they said they were gonna do, in a timely fashion. It only took 5 days for them to unlock my IPhone. It's also great they have 24-hour support, so you can email them at any time of day and they'll respond quickly. Great Service. Highly recommendable.
After mistakenly giving them the wrong IME the first time and couldn't get a refund back. I excepted and respected that. So, I try again giving the right IME # two weeks goes by and they finally tell me they can't unlock and that I'll have to wait 7 business days to receive a refund in which I feel like a refund should immediate! Anyways this is the worse experience ever! Not only that the time and the cost of dealing with is not worth it at all!
I'm truly sorry for the inconvenience you've faced. We understand the frustration of the situation. Please share your order number with us, and I'll personally ensure your refund is expedited. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

After the first 14 days they said phone was unlocked and good to go, it wasnt. Then they said it would be another 10days. After those 10 days they said it was good to go, it wasnt. So after almost 1 month of wasting time with them they said sorry we cant unlock the phone. Absolutely the worst experience I have had. Dont waste your money with them. Horrible!

I tried two different (and cheaper) companies to unlock my phone before using Unlockriver but both times I was given codes that didn't work. Unlockriver was more expensive and had longer processing times but they provided me with the right code and I was finally able to unlock my phone! They also kept me posted during the process with emails, let me know that my order was still being processed.
Thank you!

At UnlockRiver, we prioritize accuracy and customer communication to ensure a smooth unlocking process. We're glad to hear that your phone is now unlocked and functioning as you desired.

I have a galaxy note 9 from AT&T I got it on a BOGO deal so I wanted to get it unlocked now remind you the phone was not even 2 weeks old and I was trying to get it unlocked I have a lot of phone stores that can't unlock phone all of them said they could not do the galaxy Note 9 at this time so I figured know one could at this time but the company you are with so I looked at YouTube and look at that this video on how to unlock Galaxy Note 9 trust me I was very skeptical at this point because I'm like if none of my phone stores can unlock it what makes me think this sight can do it but man they did it it took 3 but it was worth every dollar I can say so if your thinking they are scammers well they are not they did mine wen no other store could so they get 5 stars from me and yes I am a real person so look at my picture and u can see now once again thanks unlockriver for unlocking my note 9

I was weary about using an online phone unlocking service opposed to just going to a local store to unlock my phone. These fears turned out true as I don't think this service is legitimate. I have paid for an unlock key for my phone purchased directly from samsung (used) so there shouldnt be any issues. It has been 5 days now and they still indicate it is "Processing". Dont waste your money on a high risk venture such as this and just drive to your local phone repair store and get it done immediately.
I'm really happy because my phone was unlocked very fast. The company is professional and give us feedbacks always when have a new position about the order. I recommend for sure!
Very bad experience, placed an order for iPhone 7 AT&T unlock waited 9 business days without any update of the status (just "processing") asked to cancel the service and got a NO REFUND (not even partial!) policy on my face. Lost $110 just like that.
Tip for consumers:
Be aware that you may lose your money
I didn't expect such a fast service... It was excellent! My IPhone ( from AT&T) is working great in Europe now. Thank you so much!
UnlockRiver has not done a thing for me, except take my money.The Unlock code they gave me was bogus... REFUND? Forget it! It pays to go to a shop and have them unlock your phone instead. Don't waste your hard earned money on these fools! Stay away from U/R.
It took sometime but my phone is fully functional. They got it done as promised. I recommend them to anyone.
Stoled money after 1 month them ask me to wait when I ask about my money them start westing time then no body answer me
