Benefits To Unlocking Any Cell Phone

Cell Phones are locked by Network service Providers such as MTN, AT &T, Vodafone, 3 mobile, Celtel, Verizon wireless, Sprint, Cingular, etc to discourage subscribers (You and I) from hopping (changing at will) between different Network Service Providers and to also prevent subscribers from perpetrating fraud.

Every locked Cell Phone must have been a pre-paid or postpaid handset sold and bought at a discounted or subsidized price from the Network service Provider to which the handset was locked.

A restriction code or barring password is programmed into the Cell Phone which disallows any SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card from a different Network Service Provider to operate or function in that handset.

Having shared this much, what does a Subscriber stand to gain by getting his/her Cell Phone unlocked?

1. Unlocking any Cell Phone removes the programmed network restriction code or barring password by the Service Provider company on your handset. This way, it no longer displays any error message or request for an unlocking code or password to be given in order for you to access and make full use of your desired SIM card.
