If you have completed the contract requirements, you can unlock your phone at any time and still use it until you get a new phone.

Yes, it can take that long. Normally it doesn't but it is a holiday weekend and some parts of customer service don't work on the weekends.

Phones will only be unlocked after any agreements have been completed.

Shouldn't the email verification be automated after you fill out the form?!

Two days to unlock, not to receive the verification email.

when you go to https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/#/ the first field is "Customer type" click the radio button on the far right to select " Non-AT&T Mobility customer" and you will not need that information

Hello!

Some years ago I bought a used iPhone 4, and it worked good for years as second line.
Now I moved to another country and I need to unlock it, but I have no connection with the first owner.
How I can do it now?

Your phone's lock status and your AT&T service are unrelated.  Unlocking your phone will not affect your service.
