    Hi drpbalaji1960,

    We'll only arrange for the phone to be unlocked if the request come from the customer we originally supplied it to.

    If the seller has had it for over 12 months we'll arrange for it to be unlocked free of charge.

    However, if they've unlocked any other phones with us within the last 12 months then we'll charge them £19.99 for each additional phone they want unlocking.

    Kind regards,

    Lee
