Unlock my old iPhone 5

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi, I've just upgraded to an iphone 6 from my iPhone 5 and wanted to unlock my old phone as I wanted to give it to my son on another network, I went through the right process filling out the form that I will to ask me to but when it came to the security bit it said I did not pass, i've done this twice now. Why does this not work

I think the correct statement from Robocop is "30 seconds to comply" ..... Cat

The advice is the same, either speak to another adviser, hopefully in the UK this time or use the form that was designed specifically to unlock a phone. We only advise calling as they have been willing to do it over the phone but I find it sad when someone is just so short of patience that they want to change network or get the phone unlocked by paying a 3rd party with all the risks that go with such an action.
