Default The new Tmobile Motorola V195 is the toughest of all cell phones to unlock

I have the same problem. When I saw this, I called tmobile and they won't
lock my payasyougo phone that my husband gave me as a gift a few months
ago.

They said I didn't pay enough. When I asked to speak to the supervisor, he
said tmobile asked motorola to make the phone unlockable so that nobody but
tmobile can ever lock the phone in ten years.

He said we should not have bought from tmobile if we wanted to use the
phone outside the united states and that I was out of luck.

I've learned my lesson but too late. I'll never buy an unlockable phone
from motorola again!

I wonder why motorola even makes an unlockable phone in the first place.

Call TMo and tell them about your upcoming trip and that you need the unlock

Where can I get unlock codes for the new T-Mobile Motorola V195 cell
phone?
The sites below told me this phone is not unlockable.

On Friday, I bought the pay-as-you-go T-Mobile Motorola V195 for $98.99
because the salesman was touting it as the best phone on the market for
the
money but T-Mobile tells me I have to wait months before the phone can be
unlocked. I'm beginning to believe them. I am going on vacation in
Australia in two weeks and I bought this phone so I could use the GSM
service there. But I can't seem to find _anyone_ who can unlock it!

Everyone I called said this is the only Motorola cell phone that
absolutely
canot be unlocked by anyone to date!

I tried everyone in the book by googling for "Motorola v195 unlock" which
got me the following web sites

This site says the phone is not available (which is wrong)
http://www.cell-unlock.com/motorola-v195-unlock.htm

This site says the Motorola V195 can be unlocked but when you call them in
Malta, they say they can't figure out the unlocking for this cell phone
(+356) 998-555-72
http://www.unlockitnow.com/Motorola/V195.php

These guys say they don't think anyone can figure out how to unlock this
Motorola V195 cellphone because they tried and failed and say it can't be
done
800-891-0522 http://www.unlocktotalk.com
800-891-0522 http://www.thedssguy.com

These people also have a page that intimates the Motorola V195 can be
unlocked but when you call them, they say they've never done one

http://www.unlockstore.com/motorola-V195-unlock.htm

These guys have a web page but nothing is on the web page to unlock the
Motorola V195 cell phone
http://www.instant-unlock.co.uk/acat...95_Unlock.html

So far, it seems like nobody can unlock this new T-Mobile Motorola V1945
cell phone.

Do you know _anyone_ who can really unlock the Motorola V195, reputedly
the
toughest of all cell phones to unlock today?
