Unlock Your Phone for DFT Mobile

When you bring your own device to DFT Mobile, you’ll need to first unlock it from your current carrier.

 

Unlocked devices bought from third-parties (such as Best Buy, Apple or Amazon) may still need to be unlocked by the previous carrier. Please contact your current carrier for more information.

  • Note: Unlocking your phone may take up to 48 hours. Please contact your current carrier for more information.

To get started, make sure your phone meets the following requirements:

  • The phone isn’t reported lost or stolen or involved in any fraudulent activity.
  • The account associated with the device is in good standing, with no outstanding balance.
  • The phone is compatible with DFT Mobile.
