Network Unlock Question
Paid off the last pymt on all my equipment in acct, so I unlocked my phone via settings. I'm confused with a message that keeps on popping up on my screen on my cell, and my tablet now states that my unlock has expired? Below is the pop up message:
Your phone's network unlock will
expire in 1 days. SIM cards from
other service providers will no
longer work.
Can anyone help me out please. I thought once paid up you own all equipment, hence unlocked with no expiration ... better off when trading in, etc. Thanks ...
Hey there @BabetteTG Checking in here to see if you were able to get your devices unlocked yet.
If you just paid off the phone, then it should be a newer model. The unlock steps on most modern phones are done right on the phone settings. You can see those steps on our T-Mobile device unlock Support page. Since you paid it off, you should not need to call or request anything unless you are talking about an iPhone. iPhones require that the carrier (T-Mobile in this case) notify Apple that the phone is eligible for unlock and then the Apple “ecosystem” will recognize and allow the full unlock.
Hope this helps!

You need to be a customer of Tmobile USA and meet the requirements to be eligible for an unlock code.

They gets no stars from me
T mobile is a big lie! They locked my phone for no real reason. My cell phone is paid off over more than 5 yrs I owe my phone and came over to T mobile with my number and they locked my phone for no reason! I will not give up!!! They keep charging me different amount of monthly payments and I been with them before they rates went up.
I going on every social media platform and letting to know How Bad T mobile is. The people work there is crooks too. T mobile is the brand name it's the people sitting at the desk is a lie! They play to many games and don't care. They are tracking our every move as well.Hey there @BabetteTG Checking in here to see if you were able to get your devices unlocked yet.

@fireguy_6364 yes it was a leased deal. Paid it off last month including tab and watch.
i forgot to ask. you paid the last payment which im guessing was a lease deal? if it was did you pay the final payment to own it and not just the last monthly payment? there is a final total to own it at the end if you choose.
