My new sim is saying its registered to someone else

I got a sim off ee shop eBay and requested unlock for it. Registered it in my name etc then after a few days they text and said it was registered to someone else so I couldn't unlock my phone using the sim? What is this all about?

Hi ,
This may mean the phone is registered to someone else, where did you get this from?
Thanks.

  • No Apple ID found, but when i try to set up a new account it says its unavailable - HOW can this be ?

    I have been trying to set up a new account with my gmail but i have No success ...  how can the Apple Id checker say one thing but when i try to create a new ID is says its taken .. ???

    If you used your original welcome email, which contained a link to delete the BB ID, then you are supposed to be able to create a new BB ID with the same email address. If you used some other method to delete your BB ID, then you should find that email and use that method. If that does not work, then you will need formal support...which is only available via your carrier, who would need to escalate your case into RIM.
    Good luck!

  • Macbook Air Already Registered To Someone Else, Apple's Problem or JB HI-FI's Problem?

    Hi every,
    I purchased a Ex Demo Macbook Air from JB Hi-FI 2 weeks ago which is a 2011 model, ( salesmen said it was mid 2012 ) but anyways that's another matter. I was using my Air today and i experienced a fault with the sound, I was on the desktop and went to open an app and then a sound started (like a static ticking) which was loud and i was unable to close the app as it never opened and i couldnt restart or shut down.
    After holding the power button down to restart it, i thought, i should register this new Macbook Air under my account, incase something is wrong with it.
    So i went to the apple site and logged in and entered my serial to register it for the 1 year warranty cover and low and behold, it's already been registered! Also the service repairs is valid for another 4 days, Phone Tech Support is expired, Applecare extention option expires in 4 days also.
    So moving forward, This product i have bought is registered to someone else. Am i in my rights to request a brand new unit, and if they don't make mid 2011 models anymore and I entitled to a lastest model? Under the retail purchasing laws i am entitled to 1 year warrenty and the services provided when purchasing IE: phone support etc.
    On Apple's website it says the following:
    If you believe the information shown for your product is incorrect, you can submit your proof of purchase online or by fax. Your sales receipt is needed for Apple's 1-year limited warranty and AppleCare Protection Plan validation, so be sure to keep it in a safe place. Apple's 1-year limited warranty is the same whether or not you register.
    My problem now is, after experiencing the sound fault i experienced, should i try and talk to JB HI-FI or fill out the proof of purchase for Apple and subit to them and see what happens?
    Thanks in advance for your advise, and i hope this makes sence.

    should i try and talk to JB HI-FI
    Yes. You should take the computer the place you bought it from and talk to them.

  • Sending email says it came from someone else

    When i send an email it says it's from someone else, another name but mine. I've tried correcting the address book, but that name doesn't show up. Several years ago I bought a mac from someone with the same name, but this is a newer computer. Maybe it got transferred over to this computer when I did a computer to computer transfer(Migration). Either way, I want to get rid of that name, so my name shows up. Can anyone help me with this?

    First, what type of email is it? Like a forwarded email? Or junk mail that seems like something you never would have sent?

  • Ipod touch stolen, can Apple tell if it is being registered by someone else since I already registered it?

  • IPhone registered to someone else?

    When registering my product here: https://supportprofile.apple.com/PramsAddRegisterProduct.do When I added my serial number, it said that it was registered to someone else... I was wondering if the other regestation could be canceled, or what should i do otherwise?

    You mean that during the Setup Assistant, it is prompting you for an Apple ID and Password?  Or do you currently have access to the device?
    If so, in the Settings > iCloud, is there an Apple ID listed at the top?  Is Find My iPhone turned on?  If so, then you need to return the device, or get the previous owner to remove the device from their iCloud/FMiP Account.

  • Imei number registered to someone else cant unlock

    I have an iphone thats' imei number is registered to someone else , does that mean i cant unlock it because it itsnt registered to me ?

    Carriers will generally only authorize unlocking for the last person to use the phone on their network. If not you, your only choices are to either establish service yourself, then request the phone be unlocked, or get whoever used it last on the network to request the unlock.

  • Used iPad, registered to someone else

    I bought an iPad2 from Gazelle but it is registered to someone else.  When I asked about this they just offered to return (but not exchange the unit). 
    I know you can't "find" it if it is lost or stolen, but if you want a used ipad you can register yourself do you have to buy it from an individual rather than a place like Gazelle.  It is a great ipad, there just doesn't seem to be a place to call and ask.
    thanks

    You'll find the iPad to be great!
    Here's the reference manual, which you may find helpful:
    iPad User Guide - For iOS 7 (October 2013)Nov 1, 2013 - 23 MB
    Gazelle warns sellers to erase the device and remove the activation lock.  Somehow, unfortunately, the one you bought got through inspection.  I would guess that is rare.
    Enjoy!

  • Brand New Ipod Shuffle says its full when its empty!!

    Hiya Guys,
    i hope you can help me.
    On Saturday I bought 2 shuffles as presents for s friends twins. The first unit works fine that we loaded, but the second unit picked up everything on the computer as a natural sync motion. I tried to delete these tunes from the unit, which says I have done it, but the capacity indicator says the shuffle is full, and the music is still on it. I have tried toi restore the Factory settings but nothing happens, infact is just suspends the whole computer!!
    So firstly, why when I have deleted everything, it still says its full?
    How do I actually get the music off?
    Or should I just take it back to the shop and exchange it for a new one?
    Looking forward to all of your help
    Donna

    DID you do the following: Click on the Shuffle icon in Devices on the left side of the iTunes window, then select the tracks you want to delete in he Contents window and hit teh "delete" key on your keyboard?

  • How do i transfer an itunes account from my old computer to another computer which already has an itunes account registered to someone else

    how do i transfer an itunes account from one computer to another which already has another account on it which is registered with someone else

    There is no account stored on any computer, the library however is stored.
    To move the iTunes library from one computer to another, copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another.
