    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!
