Will apple unlock my iphone?

I recently bought a second hand Iphone on the O2 network but I want to use it with an Orange simcard. How can I get it unlocked? Will apple do it?

1 Are you sure its locked to O2 ( have you tried the Orange sim )
2 I believe that if you get an O2 PAYG sim +make some calls+ on it and ensure you you have the £15
free on it it may work if you apply
Anyone else believe differently

    Apple do not lock or unlock iPhones. You need to contact O2 and ask if they will unlock your iPhone.

    Hi guys , can u helpe to know if apple can help me to unlock a iPhone 3G to use it with telcel Mexico?, I travel a lot to Mexico, but I live here USA, that's why. Thanks for ur answer.

    Apple does not unlock iPhones.  You will need to contact your carrier, only your carrier can authorise the unocking of your iPhone, however I don't believe Telcel support authorised unlocking.

  • Can / will  Apple Unlock my iPhone 4 for use with an overseas SIM card?

    I have purchased a second hand iPhone 4 which I want to use when I travel overseas using a local SIM card, will my local Apple store be happy to block it so that I can do that or do I need to find a third party unlocking company? I would rather do it through the manufacturer but I am not sure whether this is allowed or not?

    If you have purchased the iPhone from someone else and you intend to use it on a differing network the ORIGINAL OWNER MUST DO THE UNLOCK BEFORE SALE as the phone iMEi number is tied to that account and network.
    The system is the registered user contacts their Mobile operator confirms iMEI number and pays appropriate fee.
    That Mobile operator submits the iMEi number to Apple.
    Apple white list iMEi number on their iTunes server and confirms this back to Mobile operator.
    The Mobile operator sends the registered user an sms/e-mail inviting them to sync phone via USB cable to their ITunes account.
    Registered user follows on screen prompts (With registered sim onboard) until they see the “Congrat's .........” message
    The registered sim can now be removed and replaced it with a sim from another supported network.
    Caveat with some of the Virtual networks such as Giff-gaff /Virgin/Lebara etc........ you may have difficulty getting SMS/MMS to send due to the APN settings being wrong (They default to the actual network sighted).
    Some of those Sims may give you access to a hidden menu feature that allows you to set the correct APN manually however others don't.
    Those that don't may mean you only receive SMS/MMS messages.

  • Will apple unlock iphone if i bought it from my service provider?

    Will  apple unlock iphone if i bought it from my service provider?

    No, because Apple didn't lock the phone to begin with.  Your service provider did.  Only your service provider can initiate the unlock.  Contact them and see if they even offer unlocking, and if they do, what the requirements you need to fulfill are.

  • Can apple unlock an iPhone 4 that was bought from the apple store?

    I bought an iPhone 4 last year from the apple store, my network provider cannot unlock it as I didn't get it through them. Hope someone can help.

    Only the carrier (not Apple) can initiate the unlocking process.  In the US, AT&T has not and will not unlock the iPhone for anyone for any reason. 
    If your network provider cannot or will not unlock your phone, then you phone cannot be unlocked.  If you need an unlocked phone, sell yours and buy a factory unlocked phone.

  • Will Apple Unlock a phone that has been reported as stolen?

    Will Apple Unlock a phone that has been reported as stolen? My network provider has registered the iphone's IMEI as stolen; therefore I'm assuming that it will need to be unlocked by Apple...?

    The Phone was not locked to a specific network provider .... as I purchased the phone independently.
    I only have a SIM contract with the network provider, but the said that they would barr the SIM and then the phone using the IMEI. They said hat anyone wanting to use the phone would need to request an un-barr using the IMEI. Would request be made to my network provider .... can then then pass these details on?

    There are no officially unlocked iPhone 5's available, in the US, at the present time. No announcement, as to availability has been made. The only unlocked iPhone, available now, is the iPhone 4 or 4S. Either of these versions will work, but will have no warranty or support in India. They can only be purchased directly from Apple, no where else.

  • Will Apple replace a iPhone I found? (iPhone 5)

    I found a iPhone 5 on the side of the road, cracked screen, chipped corners and bent a bit, BUT the phone works great, and I can't restore it because I keep getting error 4013, ok now will Apple replace that iPhone even though I haven't bought it?

    hey grubbin. not true not true, long story short my friend bought a iphone off a friend that his ex girlfiriend forgot behind and her plan ran up, ( HOWEVER THIS IS PREPAID I THINK) and nothing was owed on it, but the new buyer got on verizon and the phone was not registered , there was a plan but the phone its self wasnt registered so my friend was able to get online register the phone with verizon and reset it to all his info and apple id and he uses the phone to this day. So it is possible , HOWEVER again if whoever lost it is going to report it stolen you dont want a receiving stolen property charge. Choice is yours.
    But that brings up another question? If someone loses their iphone and reports it lost and gets a new phone then would you be able to activate it and use it or should it be returned to apple, but who would pay out their own pocket to return a phone that isnt theirs
