Find a reputable iCloud unlocking service website. There are many pitfalls in this area, so it is important that you do your research.
- It’s rare for any company to accept activation lock removal for free, so if you use services that claim to do this, it’s most likely a scam.
- If you’re not sure about a company, check out user reviews on RipoffReport, TrustPilot or Trustmark Reviews.
- Some recommended premium sites are iPhoneIMEI.net and Official iPhone Unlock.
