We can’t unlock this device because is still under contract. AT&T Locked iPhone What to do?

  • We tried to unlock an iPhone 12 Model A2172 Carrier Lock - SIM Locked with AT&T using the AT&T Unlock Portal ( www.att.com/de... ) and we got the message:
    "We can’t unlock this device because the device is still under contract. Sign into your account to review your contract. To pay the early termination fee and unlock the device, call 800.331.0500 or dial 611 from your wireless device. You can submit a new unlock request 24 hours after your payment posts to your account."
    When we try to use a Mint Mobile SIM card on the AT&T iPhone we got this other message: "SIM Not Supported" so we called the AT&T Customer Service number: 800.331.0500 and the representative told us they can't do anything about it since we don't have access to the original contract.
    The only good thing about all this is that we know we can still activate the iPhone on the AT&T Network or any other Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) that use the AT&T Network because the iPhone is not Blacklisted, you can check if your iPhone's IMEI is blacklisted by going to this site: www.imeipro.info/
    Here is a list of Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) that use the AT&T Network in 2023:
    - Cricket Wireless
    - Consumer Cellular
    - AirVoice
    - Optimum
    - Black Wireless
    - FreedomPop
    - FreeUp Mobile
    - Good2Go Mobile
    - H2O Wireless
    - PureTalk USA
    - Red Pocket Mobile
    - Republic Wireless
    - UNREAL Mobile

    If you’re still having an issue with a carrier locked phone go ahead and pick up an rsim unlock tool. Will work up to the iPhone 13. If you have an e-sim you’re out of luck for now.

    This actually happens usually even if there isn’t a contract. You have to call their loyalty department until they force the unlock. Just did this yesterday with my Pixel 6 Pro.

    • @Sauvetur
      @Sauvetur Год назад

      I agree. I need to contact loyalty because I literally paid off my iPhone 12 Pro Max and any recent bills. It doesn’t let me submit an unlock request and I spoke to an agent telling me to wait 24-48 hours meanwhile she shoved advertisement and offers up my throat to stay with ATT if I connect the second line. I don’t understand why the forcing us to be LOCKED when we have already 100% paid off the device. Honestly it’s better to buy the iPhone full price from Apple or any cellar device. ATT IS A SCAM

    There are no free rides. A lot of companies use locked phones to lock you into their services. Unfortunately new phones quickly become old phones. The promise of a new phone, is simply locking you into a contract.

      This is true, but it honestly depends on the carrier. I had T-Mobile and got the 13 pro Max when it came out. I never finished paying it off and sold it to a family member with T-Mobile (told them I'd buy it back if it got blacklisted). They are still using it now in 2024 with no issues
