Get SYNGENTA SEEDS, INC. STEWARDSHIP AGREEMENT

Can my mobile service provider refuse to unlock my phone because I owe them money or am currently under contract? Yes. Providers do not have to unlock devices for existing or former customers that are not in good standing.

When a handset is locked it means it will only work with the provider that you bought it from. If your phone is locked it won't automatically become unlocked when your contract expires with your provider. You'll have to specifically ask your carrier to unlock it.

You'll need to provide the customer service representative with your IMEI number and other required information. Once you've obtained the unlock code, you'll need to enter it into your phone. After entering the code, your phone will get unlocked, and you can use it with any network carrier.

Contact your specific carrier You can call the customer service department for your carrier and ask them if your phone is locked. You can also request that they unlock it. If you'd prefer to talk with someone in person, you can always visit one of your carrier's stores and do the same thing.

Carriers, upon request, will unlock mobile wireless devices no later than one year after initial activation, consistent with reasonable time, payment, or usage requirements.

On Friday, August 1, President Obama signed a bill into law that again made it legal for consumers to unlock their cell phones in order to take them to a carrier that best suits their needs. It marked the very first time a We the People petition led to a legislative fix.

Companies may charge you to port your number, but you can ask whether any fees can be waived or negotiated. Once you request service from a new company, your old company cannot refuse to port your number, even if you owe money for an outstanding balance or termination fee.
