Hi, I upgraded my iphone 7+ from target store and I just paid off my device last week. So i went to the website to request the unlock for traveling but when i typing the IMEI number, It showed that the phone didnt belong to ATT service. The thing is I use Att service and activate my phone with ATT sim card. Can you help me, My filght is going next week and thats the only phone i have now. Please help me. THanks.

I have owned my 4s since 2013 and AT&T is refusing to unlock it, stating it is a company owned phone. I bought the phone from them and paid for it in full. How can they still own it? Spent countless hours on the phone but no resolution. Been with them since 1999. Terrible service!!!! I'll tell all my friends and co-workers about this so they know how poor the customer service at AT&T is. I am sending my complaint to the FTC, BBB and reaching out to the media to alert them of how I'm being scammed.

I want to unlock my iphone 7 plus but show the wrong message: The IMEI you entered does not appear to be an AT & T wireless phone or tablet. Please re-enter the correct 15-digit IMEI number for your AT & T wireless phone or tablet. You can obtain the IMEI number from the wireless phone by dialing * # 06 #

The phone is a prepaid phone and must be used on the AT&T network for 6 months before it can be unlocked. If you cannot use it on the AT&T network, it is not available for unlocking.

Once I receive the email stating at&t has unlocked my device do I need to do anything more?
