“Do your research,” Fisco says.Īnd there’s really no reason you can’t handle this on your own. But be careful: People have been caught running fraudulent unlocking schemes in the past. If you’d rather not handle this yourself, you can pay for a service to unlock the phone. To be clear, this doesn’t cancel your service it just gives you the option to move to a new provider with your current phone. The process can take up to two business days, but once it’s done, you’re free to take the phone to another wireless carrier. With AT&T, you fill out a Web form on the companys Consumer Device Unlock Portal to ask that. If you have a phone that’s compatible with eSIM, such as Apple’s new iPhone 14 phones and several Android devices, moving to a new carrier is easier-but you’ll still need to have your current carrier unlock your phone. Paid off early: The wireless number assigned to the device.
Or you might need to enter an unlock card before you can install a new SIM card. In some cases, the carrier will push a software update to your phone, then all you need to do is insert the new carrier’s SIM card and you’re good to go.
