How to Unlock iPhone for Free
The most important thing about unlocking iPhone free is to meet the eligibility requirements of your network provider. If your device is eligible, then you can directly ask your carrier to unlock your device. The representative will ask you for some information, such as the store where you purchased the device, its serial number, and the iPhone’s IMEI number. Moreover, many carriers require you to fill out an online form using all this information to unlock your device.
As you may realize, the IMEI number of your iPhone is very important in this process. For an iOS device, it is very easy to find it with the following two methods:
Type and dial *#06#. You will automatically see a 10-to-15-digit code that you need to write down. This is your device’s IMEI number that you will be asked to submit.
You can also find the IMEI number on your iPhone’s settings. Go to Settings > General > About and locate the string of numbers at the bottom of the screen.
After you get the network unlocking code from your carrier, you can change your iPhone’s SIM.
