Device Unlock

First you need to understand that AT&T is not going to help you out. The most they will do is give you the usual lip service, and maybe even recommend that you return the device or have whoever sold it to you process the unlock for you, assuming they are or were an AT&T customer, and produce a proof of purchase receipt

But cross your fingers, and try using a US VPN to access the portal and process your unlock request as a non-customer. Make sure you are filling in the little circle that says no I do not have an AT&T phone number.  

Thanks for your answer, really appreciated. Will try it for sure 👍

(sigh). If the original poster uses the contact us information to try to get a hold of AT&T the first thing they will be asked is what is their AT&T phone number, which they don't have.   

I miss the days when AT&T help would come on here and tell people that if they're not an AT&T customer and bought a used phone that they need to ask the person that sold it to him to unlock it for them. That was a correct answer
