Absolutely competent and trustworthy

I was in Europe when I received a message from my American cell phone provider saying I had to top up my service plan or I would lose my phone number. I was pretty desperate because I couldn't get it to work from Europe. I kept getting blocked (Error 16). By chance, I stumbled upon the Doctor SIM website. After a quick security check, I reached out to them. The people there were able to help me quickly and easily. Thank you very much, especially to Barbara, who assisted me in such a friendly and highly professional way.

Outstanding customer support and reliable service

I tried their basic unlock service for an iPhone locked to T-Mobile. Even though the standard unlock couldn't be completed due to carrier restrictions, doctorSIM provided a detailed and transparent report of the device status.
When I reached out, they honored their word and processed a prompt refund without any hassle. It’s rare to find such honest and reliable customer support online. Highly recommended for their transparency and professionalism!

FAQs

What's the IMEI code?

It's a unique identity number for each electronic device.

It stands for International Mobile System Equipment Identity, it is 15-17 digits long, and it can not be changed, as changing it might leave the device useless.

The safest way to get the IMEI is by typing *#06# on the dial pad, and if your device is dual-SIM, both IMEI codes will appear here. It is not recommended getting the IMEI code from the invoice, the back of the phone or from the sticker under the battery, as sometimes the IMEI displayed here does not match the actual IMEI of the device.

Make sure to keep your IMEI safe, and don't share it with any company you don't fully trust.

How can I know if my iPhone needs to be unlocked?

Usually, when you purchase an iPhone device with a company, it is network locked to that company. If you want to use it with other networks, you need to network unlock it.

You can check if your iPhone is network locked or not by inserting an active SIM card from a different carrier and see if the phone displays the message "SIM Not Supported".

If you can't run this check, we can help you check if your iPhone is unlocked by IMEI with our Locked/Unlocked Status iPhone Check.

How do I know if my phone is unlocked?

Before requesting a network unlock, we suggest running an IMEI check to see if your phone is network locked or unlocked: Check SIM Lock Status.

It's a fast service, and you'll know in a very short time if the iPhone is unlocked or if you need to unlock it.

An unlocked iPhone is worth more on the market, it multiplies its value!

All you need to run any of these IMEI checks is the iPhone's IMEI code.

How do I know what model my iPhone is?

If you have the phone's IMEI, you can check the model with our phone check service, and in a few minutes you get the information by email.

Please remember that it is vital to select the correct model if you are about to request the IMEI network unlock service for your iPhone.
