    Purchased 9530 through Verizon. Thought it would be great since I travel and have several diferent SIM cards from diferent countries. However The phone will acknowledge the GSM carrier but will not acknowledge the SIM card. I just need to be able to use the SIM card for the countries I travel through.

    Any tips or suggestions

    Thanks from Iraq

    Yes, you must just unlock your phone. Luckily, our website will be up and running within the next couple weeks. We have the best prices you can find anywhere. Check my tag if you're still looking around.

    Do you have an account with VZW or did you just purchase it outright? If you have a current account with them try calling them and asking them to unlock it first before having to pay. Lots of info on here about it. Just hit search.

    If you have a Verizon account, then they will give you the unlock code.....Might have to try a couple times but eventually u'll be unlocked for free...

    Go with uniquephones, I unlocked my Storm from them though I paid $19.99 , I should have just posted my IMEI here . Can I get a refund? I'll tell my friends to unlock theirs and you can charge them LOL

    I'm assuming they are unlocking it for free seeing it looks like he may be in the military.

    Wow, hook me up! I could get mine for free from Verizon because I've been a member in good standing for 8 years, but I'm lazy and don't want to beg. LOL.

    Hey schantzb,

    If you give me your IMEI number we will generate your unlock code free of charge.
    As a military guy, I would like to thank you for helping this soldier and donate the code free of charge. Thats the best thing a soldier could ask, the support of the people. God Bless you!

    Only cause you asked so nicely! Check your PMs
    How awesome, thanks so much! You'll definitely be who I recommend to people when they ask about this in the future.

    For those of you considering Unique Phones, it took two minutes to get my unlock code (literally!).

    Just to be clear, if I entered my code while my regular Verizon supplied SIM card was in the phone, that's fine right? It said code accepted so I assume I don't need to reenter it once I get a different SIM to use.

    Thanks Uniquephones for supporting our military folk....I'm actually on my way to afghanistan and am with the Canadian forces.
    Could you help me out with unlocking my Telus 9530 so I can keep in touch with family without using the exorbitant pricing of the Telus roaming global sim!

    I used UniquePhones the other day to unlock my 9530. I had the code and instruction in about 2 minutes. I highly recommend them. Now my wife is asking to have her BB World Edition unlocked.

    UniquePhones rocked. I tried to get some codes to try them, but after no response via PM I bought them to test. Unlocked the storm 9530 on first try! I will be back to use them! I wont even hold no PM response against you.
