“They got it done. I don't know if there was an error on one of our ends but I couldn't get ahold of live support for 2 days or email them. Finally responded to me and they expedited the process and got done a few hours later. NOTE: after the 20~some dollars for eligibility test there is a 50~some dollar unlock fee. This surprising enough was NOT a scam. They did what they needed to and it worked. I saw other reviews about that they had good communication, so I think it was an error in the system.”
Hi â thanks so much for the update and for sticking with us. Iâm really sorry it took a couple of days to reach support, but Iâm glad we were able to expedite things and that your Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (Dish USA) is now unlocked (Order Jan 4, 2026 â Unlock Complete). Your unlock code: 88473454.
Quick note: as our terms say, for nonâiPhones you complete the unlock by entering the code we emailed: "NonâiPhones: entering the unlocking codes provided in accordance with the email instructions;" â if you need a refresher on the steps, tell me and Iâll send them again. Also, eligibility checks are a separate charge: "Eligibility Check: These checks are nonârefundable."
Really appreciate you confirming it wasnât a scam and your patience â if anything else comes up Iâll get it sorted right away.

“Servicio de primera. RĂĄpido y confiable. 100% recomendaos. Te mantienen informados con cada paso que van dando y si tienes dudas. Contestan super rĂĄpido. Llevo 3 equipos desbloqueados y si tengo la nevesita de desbloquear otro no dudare en traerlo”
“I used Direct Unlock to unlock my iPhone 13, and the entire process was incredibly easy from start to finish. The instructions were clear, and I didnât run into any problems at all. Everything moved along smoothly, and I was impressed by how fast and efficient the service was.
What really stood out to me was how timely and reliable Direct Unlock is. My phone was unlocked quicker than I expected, with no hassle or delays. I would definitely recommend Direct Unlock to anyone looking for a simple, fast, and efficient way to unlock their phone.”
“There was anticipation of an immediate result but I should have read the reviews first... this was a slow and steady race.
Cons : The reason for only 4 stars was the unexpected requirement to pay twice for the unlock, Number one was an "Eligibility Check" for $24.99 USD ($37.40 AUD) and then the unlocking request for $59 USD ($88.31 AUD). I was not advised at any time I would need to go through a 2-step process or pay a second amount of money for this unlock. I could have purchased another device for this cost.
Pros: Telstra was useless in providing an unlock code. I requested it many times and all they could say was to return it to the place of purchase for it to be looked at. Too bad if that is a cross-country trip to do that... So frustrating. Entering the IMEI and having Direct unlocks do the leg work and them also getting nowhere with Telstra was not surprising, BUT when they went direct to the manufacturer, I was VERY HAPPY. Yes, it took 6 days to get my code but once the code was entered, my device started working with the Telstra Sim in it.
I would recommend direct unlocks to anyone.”
Hi â thanks so much for the detailed review and for recommending us. Iâm sorry the two-step payment came as a surprise â the Eligibility Check is a separate service and, as our terms state, âEligibility Check: These checks are non-refundable,â and âIt is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for.â Iâll pass your feedback on so we can make that cost/process clearer at checkout.
Iâm really glad the unlock completed and your ZTE MF910Y started working with the Telstra SIM â our instructions say for non-iPhones to complete the process by entering the unlocking codes provided. If you need any more help with the device or have questions about the order placed on Dec 30, 2025, just reply with your order number and Iâll assist.
â Charlotte
“Absoutely happy atlast - Although I feel the charge of first paying 25$ for verification / validation and followed by additional 54$ again for actual unlock is too much while I am not sure as why the Reason is for pricing
I am happy as the process was smooth/ Hassle free / time saving as I didnt had to go anywhere and just submit online and its taken care off. Yet to reach back home to check and validate”
Hi â thanks for the kind words, and Iâm glad the process was smooth for you!
About the two charges: the first $24.99 was the Eligibility Check and the $54 was the Standard Unlock. As explained on checkout, the Eligibility Check is a separate, up-front service â we âperform a variety of checks, including checking for lost/stolen status, correct network, phone history as well as Activation Lock status.â (quote) The Eligibility Check is non-refundable: âEligibility Check: These checks are non-refundable.â (quote) Also, âIt is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for. Pre-orders, eligibility check, and unlocking costs are incurred immediately upon placing your order.â (quote)
If an iPhone needs extra work you would have seen a note that âa Premium Service may be required in addition to the Standard Unlocking Payment. This will be shown in their status.â (quote) Your order status shows Unlock Complete, so no further payments should be necessary.
To finish, please connect the iPhone to WiâFi and power it off/on to complete the unlock: âiPhones: connecting the phone to WiFi and turning the phone off and then on;â (quote) â let me know once youâve checked it at home or if anything isnât right and Iâll help.

“It honestly took ages. After four days my status read 99% complete, unlock imminent. Then it stayed at that for another 3 days. I reached out to costumer support and they escalated it and it was done about another day later. Honestly $100 is a wild price to have to wait a week for, especially when there are other options.
Also in case anyoneâs wondering, after they unlock your phone they send an email saying theyâll give you $10 back if you leave a review, and then follow that up with âIf you have a problem with your unlock, please don't leave us a bad review.â Not sure what the point of reviews is then.
Glad itâs unlocked tho, customer service got the job done, so thanks
Letâs see how long this review stays up lol”

Youâre right that delays can happen â as we state, âAny timeframes stated are a calculation of the previous weeks unlocks and are given as a guideline, NOT a guarantee.â Also, âThese delivery times are variable and can decrease as well as increase without notice... if your unlock is in progress we will immediately notify you of any changes to delivery times and keep you informed right up to the point of unlocking.â
