why do they insist on 40 days before they unlock a new phone? i bought my phone out right from tmobile and they will not unlock it for 40 days, i got a sweet deal from Verizion that will save me over $100 a month so im moving from tmobile to Verizon and they refuse to unlock my phone for 40 days, hold a costumer hostage….bs

The SIM Unlock Policy requirements must be met by your account and your device to be eligible for a SIM unlock from T-Mobile.

Every carrier has a usage requirements before the phone is unlocked.

If you wanted a truly unlocked phone you should of bought it from the manufacturer.

Verizon is 60 days.  It is what it is.  IF you don’t lock the unlock policies always buy unlocked.

One Question….

That $100 savings did they break it down with taxes and fees?  They promoing you a free device too?  I wouldn’t be surprised you actually paying the same you are right now with a free device, but after the device is paid off and you want to upgrade you are actually spending $50+ more a month than what you originally had.  Verizon forum has people who tool shiny deals but wasn’t actually broken down after their fees and taxes equated.
