Hello, and welcome to In My Bag! My name is Jenn, and this is my product review blog. 
Last week my mother purchased an Apple iPhone 3G from a seller on eBay. The price was right ($300 for the Apple iPhone 3G, original packaging and accessories, plus an auto charger and two cases; and a 120GB Microsoft Zune, original packaging and accessories, plus an armband), but the phone wasn’t unlocked. So, she gave it to me to figure out the unlocking process.
I was going to take the time to research the best way to go about unlocking an iPhone without paying a lot of money or getting ripped off, but she recommended I use unlock-the-iphone.com. So, I complied with her wishes, and spent $29.95 for the software.
As it turns out, the software that unlock-the-iphone.com provides is nothing more than older versions of the FREE UltraSn0W that has been repackaged and available for download from unlock-the-iphone.com.
I found this out after spending several hours trying to get the software to work, but having no luck. I wound up having to do the research on Apple iPhone unlocking on my own, as I originally intended, and within ten minutes of finding a decent tutorial and the most recently updated files for UltraSn0w, had the iPhone successfully unlocked and working with a T-Mobile SIM card.
As if taking FREE software and trying to make a profit from it isn’t despicable enough, the company made themselves look even worse by refusing to respond to my inquiries. I purchased the software around 1am on Wednesday, July 9th, and around 11am on July 9th I wrote to them (via their website contact form) to outline my issues with the software, and request a refund. I sent yet another inquiry on Thursday, July 10th. On Friday, July 11th, I opened a dispute with PayPal. It is now late Monday afternoon, and despite the open dispute and yet another inquiry via unlock-the-iphone.com/contact.php, I have received no refund nor any type of correspondence from them.
I am giving them one more day, and then I will escalate the dispute to a claim. At that point, PayPal will take over and resolve the dispute from their end. Since I clearly outlined the problem in the open resolution, and unlock-the-iphone.com themselves claims to offer a “no questions asked” 100% refund, I am confident that I will be refunded, even though it may be because of PayPal doing the refunding themselves.
In summary, stay FAR AWAY from unlock-the-iphone.com. They are dishonest, fraudulent, and nothing more than a scam and a rip-off.

I just purchased their stupid software, luckily I didn’t pay the full price as I tried to leave their site, it gave me a reduced offer of $9.99 but these guys are theives. They don’t have a software of their own. Its older versions of free hacker software. Most of all they claim they have unlock code for the new iphone 4, which is a complete lie. DON’T SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THEM.
Same here. Lost $9.99. They don’t reply to any email. http://www.unlock-the-iphone.com is 100% fake, cheat, scam. Stay away.
