We’ve been covering the cellphone unlock situation as much as we can. That’s why we need to let you know about a new player added to the game. At least, to the sidelines.
AT&T has been feeling insecure about the situation. Everyone keeps making statements about not being able to unlock their phones anymore. AT&T is trying to remind everyone that you can, in fact, unlock your phone through them. They updated their official policy blog today with statements like “we unlock our customers’ devices” and that “the ruling has very little impact on AT&T customers.” They were quick to add their list of stipulations, though. You can unlock your AT&T phone if and only if all the following conditions are met:
- they have the unlock codes
- you have been an AT&T customer for at least 60 days
- you are in good standing without any fees or overdue statements
- you have fulfilled your contractual obligations
