What is mobile phone unlocking?
Mobile phone unlocking basically means un-restricting your phone's potential use on other networks. Mobile phone unlocking is a way to avoid paying roaming charges that can add up when your phone has left its primary network coverage area. For example, if you leave the United States for Italy, by swapping the SIM card in the back of the phone with a new SIM card, you'll be able to access Italy's local phone networks at local, in-country rates. It is like using a pre-paid phone card.
What is remote phone unlocking?
Remote phone unlocking is a new way of unlocking phones without having to send the actual phone to us. In order to provide remote phone unlocking services, we will need certain information from your mobile. With this information we will be able to calculate the unique codes you'll need to enter into your phone to lift network restrictions.
How long before I receive my mobile unlock codes?
No waiting for your mobile unlock codes!!! All other remote phone unlocking services always quote 1-48 hours for unlocking code delivery by email, but with CingUCell.com's Instant Unlocking service you will receive your mobile unlock codes within seconds.
Why would I want to unlock my phone?
Unlocking mobile phones basically means un-restricting the phone's potential to use any network. An unlocked phone can use any SIM card from any network, from any country. It is ideal if you're traveling abroad and would like to use that country's local SIM card. You will save money on roaming charges because you will be accessing the country's local phone networks and paying the local, in-country rates. It is like using a pre-paid phone card. Phone unlocking is also an excellent choice if you just purchased a new phone but would prefer to use your old SIM card on a different network.
Is mobile phone unlocking illegal?
No! However, stealing phones is! So don't bother trying our mobile phone unlocking service if you don't know the history of the phone. Remote phone unlocking will not work with a BARRED mobile that has been reported lost or stolen to the network provider.
IMEI changing, do we do it?
No! IMEI changing is illegal, so don't even bother to ask us!
