Successfully Unlocked a Blacklisted iPhone 16 Pro Max (T-Mobile USA)
I was honestly skeptical at first — my iPhone 16 Pro Max (model LL/A, eSIM-only) was both SIM-locked and blacklisted by T-Mobile USA. I had tried other services before but got scammed or ghosted.
Then I found UnlockBase. I submitted my IMEI, paid $239.99 via Stripe (credit card), and held my breath. Within 48 hours, I received a confirmation email: unlocked and removed from blacklist.

Great service easy to use

Great service
Upfront fees was quoted before purchasing the unlocking service. Was bit sceptical in the beginning as I spent last 1 week back-n-forth with other provider. Found Unlockbase honest and upfront. Bit expensive but got the work done.
