How to Unlock a Cingular Phone for Free
1. Contact Cingular (AT&T) on the phone.
2. Tell the customer services representative that you want to unlock your cell phone.
3. Provide all the details that the representative asks for including the cell phone model and manufacturer. You will also have to provide the phone's IMEI number (type *#06# to find the IMEI number). Once you provide these details, you will be asked the reason for having the phone unlocked.
4. Wait to hear back from AT&T. Usually AT&T assesses individual cases to find out whether the person is eligible for unlocking. Your eligibility depends on the duration of your contract, and the reasons given for having the phone unlocked. For instance, you may want to have the phone unlocked to avoid roaming charges when traveling abroad. When AT&T accepts your request, you will be granted the unlock code for your phone for free.
5. Insert a SIM other than Cingular and power on the phone. Your phone will then ask you to enter the unlock code obtained from AT&T.

good post.
ReplyDeleteYes. It is simple to call the network provider and ask for the unlock code. But the network provider won't provide the unlock code always. Network providers won't provide unlock code in cases like incomplete contract etc., In such cases unlock codes can be obtained from private vendors like TheUnlockArena.Com at affordable cost with easy unlocking guide.
