So I mistakenly purchased a used Cricket 1320 under the impression that any AT&T MVNO-branded phone would work on an AT&T proper account, but that's not the case; I guess it only works in inverse, with AT&T-branded phones working on their MVNOs.
I then started looking for unlocking web sites to buy an unlock code for it, but apparently Cricket does some kind of special server-side locking, and I haven't found a third party unlocking service that can unlock them. Does anyone know of one that can do it?
Cricket will only provide you with an unlock code if you've been a customer for 6+ months, so that doesn't help since I'm an AT&T mothership customer and don't know anyone on Cricket. I had no luck with their customer service beyond being told that.
Would love any help / ideas anyone would have on how I could get this thing unlocked.
