If your worried about purchasing an unlock code, dont worry your not alone. The digital age is borne and many people new to it all still seem aprehensive about purchasing something that isnt so "physical". Couple that with the fact that many unlocking companies on the net scam their customers or provide substandard services and you have a receipe for worry. However worry no more here is a breakdown of what other unlock companies WONT tell you, im going to because whether you purchase from me or not i want to make sure you get the best service possible. This website for me is just a little sideline, helps me to give my children a few extras and just get along, I not chasing every new customer and ripping people off, not worth it, thats why despite being now online for 5 years you will not find any negative comments about this website and my services.

When you visit the website it looks like many others, its offering codes you've struggled to find elsewhere, however at the bottom in small text it will say "if we cannot obtain codes will will send you information on where you can get it unlocked" you pay £5 for a code and all you receive is a document with information in that I offer all over this website for free. This scam orignated on ebay, and now ive seem quite afew unlocking websites doing the very same thing...

ADVICE : READ ALL THE WEBSITES TERMS BEFORE ORDERING

Dont always expect to get your money back if you pay by paypal, digital downloads arent offered with the same guarantees as physical items.

Some websites will sell you an unlock code, however they will not mention that the code isnt permanant and will need entering every time you switch your phone off and then on again, all our codes are permanent and once you have unlocked your phone it will stay unlocked forever.

You order a code from a website that states they can unlock your model of phone, then they state they cannot but rather than just refund (foneszone would just refund) they insist you take the "software" option. This is a cheaper alternative for them however they know that the customer tends not to want to purchase software as an option due to the fact they may be daunted by using it or dont have the required cables.

ADVICE : MAKE SURE IF THEY CANNOT PROVIDE THE CODE THEY STATE YOULL GET A FULL REFUND

You order your code, only to find that they cannot provide it, instead off offering a full refund (such I will do here) they force you to send your phone to them, this could be genuine and you get your phone back unlocked OR it could go missing in the post.

ADVICE: READ TERMS - IF YOU SEND USE SPECIAL DELIVERY - AVOID SENDING IN FIRST PLACE

You order your unlock code, which they say they can provide, when they dont provide it they say "we will take it off yoru next unlock at a reduced rate" they hold onto your funds for no reason. Then in months time when you finally get a phone they MAY be able to unlock they "forget" about your order.

ADVICE: READ TERMS FULLY

You find a website that states it can provide your code, you pay next day you find the website has disappeared, some companies rotate many websites over a few weeks/months and just take money but never provide the codes.

For reasons im not able to list the websites i know that operate like this however any website you wish to buy from you could maybe do a search for bad or negative feedback. If you find a website has an abnormally high amount of negative feedback be warned and do reasearch, however remember that its not everything its a culmination of everything that will show you whos out to scam you and whos genuine.

Look for active websites with updating feedback, and those that look like they are operating not just a stagnant site that isnt doing anything, you can probably be sure that you will not get the service you deserve from them.

Dont be afraid to get your codes, as long as you buy from a long established reputable website you will be absolutely fine!! Heres to a simlock free life!!
