unlocking.com Bad service

I tried to get a moto milestone unlocked from www.unlocking.com. I paid via paypal, which itself had to poll my bank account for the funds ($10 ish), taking 6 business days. In this time I asked them if they were 'able' to generate the code successfully, in order to get some reassurance that when the paypal payment processed I would get the code. They said they could not do this, and whatever, I waited.

After the payment processed the code did not come. When I contacted them they said they were having trouble generating the code, I waited a couple days and then demanded a refund. They said I had to give them a certain period before I would be eligible for a refund. During this period (around 5 days) I got the unlock code I needed from another website (www.mobileincanada.com) and am now using my unlocked phone. I told them this and that I simply wanted the refund. After the 5 days were up they said they had to ''review my case for refund'' for a period of 7 days. That time has now past and my ''case'' has currently been elevated to a supervisor.

At this point, even if I get the money back, it required to much effort to do so. I've only hounded them so far for 10 bucks because I hate shifty outfits like that so much. They bank on the people that don't hound them.

THIS IS A SCAM ! Don't use it. They say they provide the unlock codes within one day but after 5 days I don't have anything. I have sent several emails to their "support" and I have no reply.

Its up to the consumers and buyers to beware. Research before you 'buy' a service or product. Using any service, other than your current provider, to get around a locked phone is risky. More information can be found here:

unlocking.com failure to provide unlocking code

The unlocking code they offer to deliver within 1 day (After releiving you of £25) fails to arrive. You can then track your order on their site. The delivery date was then changed to 5 days time, and then as this date arrived, the date changed to the following day. Thid happened on 4 occasions then the date just passed. Despite sending this company 4 emials they have never responed. I would strongly suggest that you do not use this company.

Same here, last week I had ordered the unlock code for my HTC hd2 after they charged me $14.99 I waited the code from them but nothing happened, I had checked their site for order status but it said there was no order . I gave a complain to paypal and today they said the code had received if I have problem with the code contact support center but I had never received the code . People just stay away from UNLOCKING.COM it is just a scam

the company is a big scam. and there statement that in case you will find a site with a lower price, they will do pricematch is also a big scam.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

The claim to provide unlocking codes, to be able to use any service provider in your phone, but it's a SCAM. All you'll get is a lighter wallet.
