“Do not waste your money, still wating REFUND? ”
Written on: 26/01/2013 by Dan078967
I Purchased a unlock code on 17th of December for my Sony Ericsson E15i Locked to the three UK network the following day I received an email that they would have to do a refund because the phone manufacturer has not yet added it to their database. So I have to sent them 3 emails now with no response and they have still not refunded my payment. Still I am preparing to get legal action against them to get money back. (read more)

“Excellent Customer Service”
Written on: 16/07/2012
The webpage was very easy to use with very good and clear instructions. After waiting for a few days I emailed Mr Unlock and got a very speedy response. Unfortunately the code for my phone was not available, so I was refunded and advised to try and re-order again. This I did, but again the code was unavailable. However, despite this, the customer service that I received was excellent, very helpful and my money was refunded on both occasions with no problems at all. So, although I didn't... (read more)
“Refund? Still waiting...”
Written on: 13/07/2012
Could not unlock my Nokia from 3 - but took the payment quite happily - still waiting for refund (8 June, now 13 July!) - customer 'service' reply to enquiry was a standard 'your account has been refunded - refunds can take 4 - 7 business days) - not even addressed to me, but started with "Hi". Poor, poor, poor - would not recommend to anyone. (Went to 3 in the end for the unlock, and although it cost more, it was done there and then over the phone - he even stayed on the line to check it... (read more)

Hi jason,I left a comment on your other post re the 4 or 5 P's of matierkng so I won't repeat those thoughts here.This is an interesting thread and has raised some points that I have some difficulty accepting.People do buy on impulse but not as much as is being stated here. Your particular example Jason of someone under stress with financial debt may well do something on impulse BUT then again they may not do anything at all even if the solution offered is the ideal one..why because they are also internally defeated and have probably made so many poor decisions in the past that led them into this situation of debt they react in the complete opposite way to impulse buyers. They can be totally incapable of making any decisions. I have actually seen examples of this behaviour and all these folks are doing is not trying out anything but just going through the motions in a near moronic state.Secondly Joseph commented about talking to people's deepest desires etc. I hear this point of building a relationship with your list to create trust many times. The thinking is that trust can then lead to a more profitable list. Do you really believe that people are that gullible and stupid? Many subscribers (I really don't like that word either) are much smarter than the people trying to market to them. Sure some clever copy-writing can create emotional triggers that lead to sales but think about the normal level of conversions..we are talking about 1 or 2% with even the best written sales pages that are claimed to have cost thousands. What about the other 98% who simply ignored the message or saw it for what it really was..a sales pitch.People always will initially react negatively to a sales push of any kind. People do respond to freebies and good quality offers but don't lets fool ourselves..we can only impact on their decision in a very minor way. And if we try to do any more then any trust you have created is instantly dissolved and your list starts to dwindle in size. Even for the biggest and most successful online marketers. if the truth were really told, for them it's never going to be a matter of trust it's simply a matter of turnover a numbers game. so when I hear people saying they are building trust what they are really saying is they are setting up their targets . is this bad no but don't insult people's intelligence by thinking the giving of freebies builds trust. This is the real online opportunity. Don't forget the 5 P's of offline matierkng and create a business based on openness and brutal honesty. I repeat people are not stupid so let's stop treating them that way in our matierkng. If you have something of high quality to sell that you TRULY BELIEVE will benefit others then be proud of your offer and TELL them you are selling it for mutual benefit.There are many countries in the world. like Australia and England, where people in the financial services industry (and that includes insurance) MUST declare ALL their commission and bonus-able earnings BEFORE the customer pays for the product. Think about that for a minute Customers then will only pay the price IF they truly believe the person presenting the product is ADDING VALUE and not just presenting the product. that's why thousands of sales people left the industry practically overnight. The interesting thing is those who survived are regarded by the customers/clients as being absolutely essential to their financial future and most of these sales people do not take commissions they charge a fee for valued added service and are making more money than ever before!Just imagine what the impact of that type of legislation would have on online matierkng!Well there is my few dollars worth and I hope it stimulates more healthy discussion. Admittedly some of this was a bit tongue-in-cheek but I have always enjoyed a good debate. Best wishes Jason[]Jason Ser Reply:August 22nd, 2010 at 6:22 pmWow! Peter,You had brought up more than a few thought provoking issues here.In fact,you had expanded this discussion into something way bigger than I expected. So I decided response your comment here into 3 separate new posts, hopefully, to stimulate more discussions and also learning with more different angles of perspective for my readers. Here's where the links for the 3 response postsIf Peter's comments somehow intrigue you a little, you can continue the discussion in the above 3 post I created.CheersJason Ser[]

Hi, just to let you know from the start, I have never used this "Mr Unblock" or whatever it is he calls hiself service, but was directed to this review site from a forum link. I hate to see so many people still getting scammed by these scum! Please just look closely at the posts, most good reviews are logged in as Guest, (as I probably am now) Now look at the terminology he uses, and always in slightly broken english.

“did not unlock my phone and refused to refund my fee”
Written on: 05/12/2011 by AntonJ (1 review written)
I admittedly offered Mr Unlock a challenge with a telephone I purchased in Mexico. I had several exchanges with them over a period of many weeks; some responses from them were thoughtful, some were stock wording, one proved that the writer had not read the thread. In the end, they gave up. So I asked for a refund of my money. They said they tried and my situation was unique, so no refund. I'm now returning to the US, still unable to use this phone for my occasional UK visits, and I... (read more)

I decided to use my old Nokia 3510i phone (belonging to Orange) to temporarily replace my son's phone that was stolen by a mindless thief at his school. I was looking for a good, fair value phone unlocking service and found Mr Lock offering to unlock the phone for £2.95. Pretty good value was my thought and decided to go ahead. The first automated attempt did not work and I emailed customer services asking them to manually calculate the code. I got a response within 2 hours. The phone was... (read more)

The very first thing that comes into my mind when I saw Mrunlock is will I go for them or not. Do not blame me for thinking that way because I know a lot of friends who experience availing false service online. I am just really trying my luck when I tried their service. I do not really have the idea what will happen next. What I want them to do is to unlock my motorola. Good job because they were able to unlock it. Thank you to them. (read more)

Honestly, the name Mrunlock is what makes me interested to avail their service. I really do not go for online services because I am afraid of scammers but I need to do it so that I can use my cellphone. Well, I must admit that they are quick in providing the service I need and it is easy to communicate with them. In case my friends will need unlock service I will surely recommend them.

“Strike Back at Unfair Cell Phone Services”
Written on: 12/08/2011 by MimiHarraldson
The major cell phone services in the Unites States lock your phone to their specific service for a length of up to two years. The laws in the US require that they allow you to unlock your phone before that but, in my experience, that does not happen. I have an LG shine. To unlock this phone all you needs is the phones IMEI number which is like the phone's serial number and a correct unlock code. I say correct because my phone carrier sent me a number that did not work to unlock my phone... (read more)

My sister went to Europe and did not realize that AT&T would charge her $800.00 for 10 days worth of phone calls while she was there. I decided not to make the same mistake and investigated the alternatives. If you unlock your phone you can use any carrier in Europe and they charge as little as $10.00 for 100 minutes of calling and many more minutes of texting. I have an HTC touch and mrunlock will, for a very cheap price, quickly mail you what you need to unlock your phone. The... (read more)

I have just used the Mr Unlock site to unlock my Motorola. I was very surprised on how easy it was to unlock. I am not a very technical person so I needed the process to be simple! I was very happy with the price compared to most places.
The unlock code was emailed to me after a few hours, after entering the unlock code I was able to use my new SIM card immediately with no fuss. I will definitely use Mr Unlock in the future and will recommend it to my friends and family. Great service.
