Unlock device/ Bill assistance
Hi,
I have been trying to unlock my previous phone through AT&T unlock device online but it keeps telling me that I have to pay off the device first. Error message: "Looks like you haven't paid off your device yet. Follow these steps to pay off your installment plan. Then, wait 48 hours before you submit a new request.
The device contract was terminated but I paid my debt to your third party company. How do I go about finding out if it is truly paid off and how can I get the phone unlocked?

If you defaulted on your account, and AT&T sold the debt to a third party, they may never have recorded the debt is paid if they sold it for pennies on the dollar. Good luck. AT&T does not have to unlock a phone that was not fully paid for.
AT&T unlocked phones will still work on AT&T postpaid, prepaid, cricket, and any mvno that uses AT&T SIM cards
