Using an unlock code to unlock your phone provides you with safety while hardware unlocks can potentially damage your phone. Unlock codes are programmed by manufacturers and are meant to be in place while third party hardware devices can tamper with registry files, damaging your phone or providing a temporary fix. We believe in using subsidy unlock codes to provide our customers with complete safety and satisfaction.
6 : Is it safe? Is it illegal? What if my provider finds out?
Yes it is safe. All Unlock codes come straight from the manufacturer or provider. It is not illegal to unlock your phone in most countries such as Canada, USA, and many European countries. In fact, it is illegal to have your phone locked in certain countries. We have never had a complaint about someone’s phone malfunctioning from unlocking by code.
