T-Mobile Not Unlocking my Phone
Hello, long story short T-Mobile is not unlocking my phone and not giving me a proper reason about it for over 2 weeks. After more than 10 calls and talked to around 20 people on the customer service...

No carrier will put the IMEI in their system unless someone from the right channel tells a carrier it belongs to them. This is to reduce fraud and theft. https://swappa.com/faq/answer/us-reseller-flex-policy
Assuming it was warranty exchange (which was not). The lock says it's locked by T-Mobile. I asked that question to 3 reps and supervisors, crickets, no answer. Why is it locked by T-Mobile and they are not able to unlock it. If it is a Flex phone and it locks with the first carrier it means the first carrier was T-Mobile, so T-Mobile has to unlock it. Please correct me if I did not understand your comment.
