Yep, and if one could have a store that does it, you can show that it has or
hasn't been done. It is probably better than these sites online.

Remember that in 2013, it became illegal, under the DMCA for someone to
unlock their smart phone through a 3rd party. It was still legal to do
this through your carrier though. In 2014 the US administration reversed
this and made it legal for individuals to unlock their own devices. The
Consumer Code for Wireless Service is a voluntary agreement that all of
the major and most other carriers in the US have implemented on
unlocking customers smart phones. I'm not sure if this helps at all, or
if it's just an interesting bit of history at this point.

Hello Sieghard,
I used a third party unlocking service three years ago When I needed to
unlock my 4S. The unlocking went as smooth as drinking Water. At that
time my carrier refused to unlock it for me. However, the service I used
had a physical address in the mall close to where I live. In fact I went
to their shop myself and did the transaction in person, not over the phone
or email.
I think such third party unlocking services would find it hard to cheat,
because one can always go back to the store and demand refund or
demonstration that the unlocking indeed took place.

Hi Cris,
Do not use a third-party service, there are lot of scammers out there and
you should always unlock through your carrier.

How did you unlock your iPhone? Did you go through AT&T or whatever
carrier you have, or did you use a third party unlocking service? I need
to unlock a phone before I go overseas, because I can't afford
international roaming. I prefer to buy and use a local sim card with a
local number overseas.
Cheers,
Cris
