Review summary

Looking at 440 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers appreciate the service, describing it as quick, efficient, and professional, with some successfully unlocking their phones in a short amount of time. People also found the communication timely and clear, and some expressed gratitude for the hassle-free process. However, a significant number of people were dissatisfied with the pricing and payment structure, with some customers reporting higher final costs than initially advertised. Many also experienced issues with refunds, including payments being non-refundable or delays in processing, even when the service did not meet expectations. Some customers also noted that the service took longer than expected, and in some cases, the product (unlocked phone) did not work as anticipated.

Service took longer than expected and initial price increased to actually get the code. Cost £15 then £30 so would have been cheaper to go to local shop. Started the process so had to finish though... See more

Hi — Charlotte here. I’m really sorry you feel this way and I want to sort this out.

To investigate we need your order reference and IMEI — without those we can’t locate your order. Please use the Live Support on your tracking page or reply with the IMEI so we can look into it.

For reassurance, our Terms state: "All of the services offered on this website are entirely legal in Europe and North America." And our Refund Policy notes: "Incorrect Unlocking Code: If, having worked with our technician to get the code to work, and we cannot get the code to work, you'll be refunded."

Give us the IMEI or use Live Support and I’ll get this resolved quickly.

Hi — Charlotte here. I can’t confirm whether your unlock finished without your IMEI or order reference. In the absence of any reference we cannot address your specific concerns — please use the Live Support link on your tracking page so we can locate your order and resolve this.

A couple of helpful notes from our terms:
- “5.1 It is the customers responsibility to check the compatibility of their handset…”
- “Wrong IMEI: No refund if the provided IMEI is incorrect.” (Refund Policy)

If you’d rather post your IMEI here I’ll check the status for you right away.

Hi — thanks so much for the great feedback!

Your order (placed Oct 19, 2025) shows Unlock Complete for your iPhone 14 (AT&T USA). If you haven’t already finished the final step, please follow the iPhone instructions: "iPhones: connecting the phone to WiFi and turning the phone off and then on;" — that should complete the process. I can also confirm we received $24.99 for the Eligibility Check and $68 for the Standard Unlock.

If anything isn’t working, reply here and I’ll help get it sorted. — Charlotte

SCAM

SCAM. You pay 15.99eur first, then they ask yeah we can unlock, pay 44euro more, you pay it and they continue ask for more payments. That is ridiculous.

Hi — I’m Charlotte. I’m really sorry this has been frustrating.

Sometimes orders are billed in stages (an eligibility/pre-check then the unlock or an upgrade), which is covered in our terms — for example: "2.1 It is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for" and "'Pre-orders' also referred to as 'Eligibility Checks' are not covered by our money back guarantee." Also note: "Criteria Not Met: If your phone requires an upgrade (e.g., from Standard to Premium Service), any initial payments are non-refundable."

That said, we can’t look up or stop any further requests without your IMEI. In the absence of any reference, we cannot address your specific concerns — please use the Live Support link on your tracking page and provide your IMEI there so we can investigate and get this sorted for you quickly. Thanks for flagging this — we want to help.

Hi — I’m Charlotte. I’m really sorry you feel that way.

To investigate I need your IMEI — without it we can’t find your order or address the extra‑payment messages. As our terms say, "It is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for" and services begin when payment is received. For Samsung phones we do offer Remote USB unlocks and, as our Refund Policy states, "Remote USB Unlock: Refund is given if the service is incompatible or doesn't work. Remote USB Unlocks are only relevant to Samsung, Motorola, LG and Huawei phones."

Please use the Live Support link on your tracking page and send your IMEI there so we can look into the charges and resolve this quickly. If you’d rather, paste the IMEI here and I’ll start checking for you.

THIS IS A SCAM COMPANY

THIS IS A SCAM COMPANY, STAY AWAY FROM THEM

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE USING THEM

I paid for the advertised £23.99 promotion to unlock my I phone 16 Pro Max. Order ID # 12945155. Shortly after, I received an email requesting I need to pay an additional £42.00 to complete the service. Then after several more hours I received another email saying I needed to use their Premium Service for an additional £113. I refused to pay the additional amount and asked them not to contact me again. They replied by offering to walk me through the service and strongly advised me to pay the additional amount.

Hi — I’m Charlotte. I’m really sorry you had that experience with Order #12945155.

I can’t look into your specific case without the phone’s IMEI — in the absence of any reference, we cannot address your specific concerns. Please use the Live Support link on your tracking page and provide the IMEI so we can review your order and explain the extra charges.

A couple of relevant points from our terms: "It is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for." Also, "There may be an additional price to pay for the sim unlock itself, this will be stated on your order summary page prior to purchase." And from the Refund Policy: "Premium Services are only relevant to iPhones" and "If your phone requires an upgrade (e.g., from Standard to Premium Service), any initial payments are non-refundable."

If you open Live Support and paste your IMEI and order ID, I’ll personally make sure someone checks why the extra fees were requested and walk you through the next steps.

Hi — I’m sorry this has been so frustrating. I can see your order numbers, but we need the phone’s IMEI to investigate and resolve this properly — without an IMEI we can’t address your specific unlock or payment details. Please either reply here with the IMEI or use the Live Support link on your tracking page so we can look into it right away.

A couple of things from our terms to note: "It is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for." Also, if your phone truly requires an upgrade, "any initial payments are non‑refundable." However, if Premium Service is tried and still fails, our policy states: "Premium Services which fail - both your Standard and Premium payments will be fully refunded back to your card if it is not possible to unlock your device having tried Premium Service."

Send the IMEI or contact Live Support and I’ll escalate this for you. — Charlotte

I paid the $25, then the $82, then an extra $68 for "Premium" which said it was a guarantee... but apparently there is a higher tier than that one that guarantees. These people are Scammer hustlers.

Hi — I’m Charlotte. I’m really sorry you’ve had this experience — I understand how frustrating extra charges feel.

Please note our Terms say: “Premium Services which fail - both your Standard and Premium payments will be fully refunded back to your card if it is not possible to unlock your device having tried Premium Service.” I need to check your order to confirm what happened and whether that applies.

We don’t have your IMEI or order reference on this review. In the absence of any reference, we cannot address your specific concerns. Please either reply here with your IMEI and order number or use the Live Support link on your tracking page so we can investigate and resolve this for you.

Hi — Charlotte here. Sorry you’ve had a bad impression.

To reassure you: the Terms state "Your purchase will appear on your card statements as Expressunlocks" and that "All of the services offered on this website are entirely legal in Europe and North America." The site also says "All of the products on our websites are covered by our 100% Money Back Guarantee" — refunds are available but subject to the conditions in our Refund Policy.

We can’t investigate or stop any requests for extra payment without your order/IMEI. Please do not make further payments — use the Live Support link on your tracking page or reply with your IMEI and order number so we can look into this immediately.

Thanks,
Charlotte

Expressunlocks - Complete Scammers

Well now, Expressunlocks eventually removed my order from their website, blocked me from their chat format as well as refusing to any my direct email queries. They kept my money with my final words ensuring their deceit will be posted widely over the network. Expressunlocks is a complete scam with Scotland Yard about to receive all their message traffic and related receipts. Do not trust these people - complete scammers!!!

Total scam website

Total scam website! They will do a bait and switch and say it costs 28 bucks to unlock but then that’s just a check fee which clearly you can check yourself for free your IMEI. So the actual fee is 68 more dollars…. They lie and say it takes 30 mins and they have fake reviews but it takes weeks even months. Then after you get scammed for the 68 bucks they say it’s a total of 178 more making the total almost 300 bucks altogether! Like I told the agent if you guys have to lie and dance around your wording to make a person believe one thing only to do another then clearly it’s a scam. Oh but it’s all written in our terms because you know companies scam people all the time so you have to read the terms first. Regardless what they say it’s all bullshit and they promise you a refund by a credit note which is not a refund cause why would u use a credit on a phone that didn’t work the first time! It’s like they are playing the system to keep your money! There is a right way to do business and a wrong way! They are clearly doing it the wrong way but look into class action and sign up and after enough people report then we can legally make a change. No wonder they accept crypto for payment! That should have been the first red flag!!! Oh and if you cause them too much trouble they will submit you phone to be blacklisted! It’s just white collar criminals! Be warned they are a total scam site!!!

Hi — Charlotte here, and I’m really sorry you feel that way. I want to help make this right, but I can’t look up or escalate your order without your IMEI and order reference — please use the Live Support on your tracking page to send those details so we can investigate.

To clarify a few points from our terms:
- “2.1 It is not possible to cancel your order once it is paid for.” and “7.3 ‘Pre-orders’ … are not covered by our money back guarantee. We perform a variety of checks…”
- Our Refund Policy states an “Incorrect Unlocking Code: If, having worked with our technician … and we cannot get the code to work, you'll be refunded.”
- We only blacklist an IMEI in cases of fraud/stolen-card disputes (“13.7 In case of a dispute arising from the use of a stolen credit card, we will assume the device is also stolen and proceed with an immediate blacklisting of the IMEI”).

I know that’s frustrating — please contact Live Support with your IMEI/order and I’ll personally escalate and review your case ASAP.

Hi — I’m Charlotte. I’m really sorry you feel ripped off — that’s frustrating.

From what you describe it sounds like separate charges for eligibility/submission and then the unlock or an upgrade. Our Terms explain that “It 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,” and “‘Pre-orders’ also referred to as ‘Eligibility Checks’ are not covered by our money back guarantee.” Also: “By clicking Credit/Debit Payment you wish for the order to be commenced immediately.”

I can look into this and explain each charge, but you haven’t supplied your IMEI or order reference — that’s required to find your order. Without it we can’t address your specific concerns. Please use the Live Support link on your tracking page so we can review the charges, or reply here with your IMEI and order number and I’ll investigate right away.

I was skeptical about using this service because of the pricing and I was not sure it would work. I went with it and my phone was successfully unlocked from a corporate account promptly. The phone
Had no balance or block but it was on a corporate account I no longer had access to through Verizon directly. Nevertheless, it worked and saved a huge headache. Thank you.
