Should you officially unlock your cell phone on your own and is it dangerous?
So you have hopefully got to the end of your mobile phone contract, you've finished paying for your really expensive smart phone and you are totally ready to locate a cheaper pre paid deal. There is just one problem. Your cell phone is locked to your current network provider and if you can't fix that, you aren't going to be able to get a more competitive package provided by other networks. So, how can you get your smartphone carrier unlocked and get your pick of the pre paid deals? The good news is, it's essentially quite easy.

Am I permitted to unlock a phone?
Absolutely nothing is unlawful about unlocking your device. It's your phone and you are well within your legal rights to make use of it with any carrier you want. Still, there is a very good chance permanently unlocking your smartphone could void your warranty, so it might well be best to hold off until you have finished your contractual obligations before deciding to abandon your existing provider.

What alternatives are available if my carrier won't unlock my cellphone?

  1. High street unlocking companies: You'll routinely see signs in shops, market stalls and even barbers offering mobile unlocking services and it is common to pay around $60 or more for the service.

  2. Third party unlocking websites: You'll find many companies that offer to source IMEI unlocking services for you, but it's a good idea you read testimonials to get an informed view of how reliable they are before you hand over your hard earned money. Be advised there are countless crooks offering these products and services!

  3. DIY: A number of technically-minded individuals may possibly be able to accomplish this themselves but is not very easy and will need expert computer software.
Where can I find the best cellphone SIM-only deals?
Once your smartphone has been unlocked, you will be ready to find one of the most affordable mobile bundles on the market - a sim only deal. These usually operate on a rolling regular monthly basis, which means you can use the service for as long as you are satisfied with your cell phone or you can up-date when the next model catches your eye or your good old phone inevitably won't play ball any longer.

Who's the best and fastest 3rd-party unlocking company on-line?
If you're unsure which business you can trust, I highly recommend Unlock.Zone. I've used them personally and was very happy with the service I received, and ultimately that they successfully unlocked my cell phone. They provide unlocks for all major brands and networks, provide a guaranteed price match promise, plus above all, offer a 100% refund policy in the unlikely event they cannot unlock your phone.
