72 hours normally.

Try a non O2 UK SIM card in it which completes the unlocking procedure. No need to hook up to iTunes to see if it's done !

Check any spam folders for your email confirmation.

It's usually much quicker as long as there are no problems.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

1-2 days usually in my experience, sometimes within 24 hours. Think it depends how busy they are, and If they have a backlog.
