Anyone got an unlock for the 810 off cellunlocker recently? Just wondering what other peoples times have been like since i'm at the 10 (business) day mark and still waiting...
@PB_H What about those that purchased the phone outright?
@Coan T-Mobile has been much slower about giving them codes for any T-Mobile devices as many people are buying them under the payment plan and then defaulting on the payment and selling them. I've know about a dozen people that got toasted with a $350 paperweight off Craigslist. Ever since they started locking the network to 'stolen and insurance claimed devices' third party sites have been much slower at getting codes.
They wouldn't do it without the phone being under my tmo account for 3 months (i'm prepaid with tmo since I use them when I travel). They were my first resort. This is a phone off what seems to be a reputable seller off ebay, but I'm kinda paying the price for not buying unlocked. Tmo didn't mention anything about the IMEI being an issue when I provided it to them when I asked them about the unlock initially (you'd think it would raise some red flags when they checked).Ask T Mobile to do it, if your phone is fully paid for and you're a customer in good standing they should.

contacted cellunlocker at the 10 day mark and they said it'd be under a rush...that was earlier this week, i'm still waiting...
Under contract is expected, why should they unlock your phone and you just leave TM ( the possibility) -: because they just wanna be nice ? :wink:
Good luck.
I'm not under any sort of contract. I am pay by day prepaid. Pay By The Day Cell Phone Plans | Prepaid Plans | T-Mobile I did not get my phone directly via Tmo, I do not have a contract for service of any sort.
That said, I've already contacted T-Mo, they said no, I have already paid my money to cellunlocker, hence the question in the OP. So far the closest thing to an answer to my question is that Tmo is screwing around unlock sites because customers are screwing them and I get to sit and wait because of it.
#1 google & find a dozen unlock providers and ask if the can. #2 sell it in the US on eBay and by one that is unlockedI have a Lumia 810 in the UK and need it to be unlocked. I have no T-Mobile account and have never been a customer, I tried chatting to them online and they said they couldn't unlock it for me. Any suggestions for what I should do? I tried byimei.com and they couldn't find a code for me.

^ do you work for them ?
Fully paid for includes purchased the phone outright, if you've defaulted they won't obviously
-and it doesn't mean they will do it and you can't be on their pre-paid plan.
I am in contract for another 18 months I bought my phone thru Best Buy Mobile Solutions/eBay for $99.
I initially had to pay $60. a month for two years for the $50. unlimited T&T and unlimited data ( high speed but only 500MB worth) so they could get
some of that money back -$240. worth but when I called up and asked for an unlock code and being a customer for
7 years they said sure and can we offer to reduce you monthly bill to $50. ? Yes of course what's the catch ? there were none.
There are stipulations you'll need to be a long time customer and own the phone outright that I know -Call and ask.
