Iphone still not unlocked, thanks o2

O2 quote 72 hours max to unlock your phone.

 

First requested unlock from O2 on the 3rd Dec, O2 failed to get it unlock by the 6 Dec.

7 Dec had to request it again, 10 Dec Still not unlocked.

 

Whatever you do, request it unlocked well before you ever need it!!

O2 are effectively holding me to ransom, illegally. I should be free to have my phone unlocked within a reasonable time frame. Now i have a non working phone, thanks to me assuming they actually meant 72 hours max

Its now been 7 days so far.

 

BEWARE.

My iphone was a reconditioned one from O2, 2 years ago, (and is still fine) would that make a difference?

As long as it is showing the correct phone in "My O2" it won't make any difference.
