Direct Unlock provided excellent service! They unlocked my phone quickly and efficiently, delivering results in less time than expected. The process was smooth and hassle-free, with great customer support throughout. I highly recommend them for anyone needing a fast and reliable phone unlocking service. Absolutely worth it!

Top Critical Review

“Absolutely pathetic.”

Took over 20 DAYS to unlock! And spent the 100 to get it unlocked immediately. And bc of the longest waiting time. I now have unlocked my phone for no reason. So direct unlock wasted my time and my money. Sent multiple emails stating that the almost month wait was too much, and wanted a refund but was declined! 0/10. Had to put one star just to even write this review but that's the only reason I put one star. Highly disappointed and definitely not satisfied.

These are crooks. Word of caution for those buying service from officialiphoneunlock.co.uk. After seeing reviews from trustedreviews.eu, their facebook page, i bought their unlcok service for my sprint. Before buying I checked my esn at swaapa and checkesnfree where it came clean. After more than an month of buying their service they mailed me saying that my phone is blocked and promised a generous refund to a trade account to use for another imei, but it was never returned and no more mails from them. Then I started checking their site and found these facts. First you will notice a free unlock check button on their site. When you check for a imei and an operator you will get a price quote and reviews below it. These reviews are manipulated. You will find same person reviewing for different operator iphones and claiming unlock. And I think trustedrevies.eu is also their site and manipulated. And if you check their facebook page you will see all positive reviews, because these guys are removing all negative posts. Becareful guys these are cheats and they will fleece you.

Hi,
I use unlock icloud service from this site, trust because web interface is professional. But true is lie from them:
- They request preorder with 18 £. I think this is price of unlock and I charge with my CC.
- After several days, they continue request a unlock service with 30 £ with 1-5 working days, if don't accept, loose 18 £ preorder, If unlock fail, full money is back to me.
- After I continue charge 30 £ for unlock service. They say: 5-10 working days to unlock (what the $#*!, before they message: 1-5 days)
- After continue to wait 2 week, they continue message: Unlock fail because my phone is blacklist apple: lost phone (what the $#*! again, this is my phone and I forget password icloud?). Message:

11 Nov 2015 11:00:33 - We attempted to remove your iCloud locked device from the previous owner's account but were unable to do so as the iDevice (35xxxxxxx262) is unfortunately marked by Apple as Lost/Stolen.
As stated on the website before purchase, it is not possible to remove the Activation Lock on iDevices which are in Apple's lost/stolen database using our Clean service. There is a more expensive Premium solution which is currently offline which we will email you about as soon as it returns.

Your payment for the clean service has been refunded in Trade Credits (£49.99 - the total amount, including pre-order) which you can avail on a different device or against the Premium service when it becomes available.

As we have already prepared your unlock and incurred the unlocking charge, we cannot automatically issue a card refund for handsets which are rejected in such circumstances.

There are numerous services such as http://cleancheck.me(FREE) which can be used to identify Lost/Stolen handsets.

Scam? I check website http://cleancheck.me and this is their $#*! website and show IMEI they receive and scam and after warn blacklist. Copyright from US but true is UK.

All is scam totally, no money back. I lost 48 £ from https://www.officialiphoneunlock.co.uk/

Their scam website:
http://cleancheck.me
https://www.officialiphoneunlock.co.uk/

Please stay away from them.

Please show me how to sue them?
