It is very frustrating when you end up getting an iPhone with a blacklisted IMEI number and then spend hours researching “How to Unlock blacklisted iPhone” and “iPhone Blacklist Removal” guides.
Especially when you bought a used iPhone to save a few dollars, and it turns out that its IMEI number is reported as lost or stolen.
In this post you will get answers to the following questions:
- How a phone gets blacklisted
- What happens to a blacklisted IMEI number
- How to identify if an iPhone is blacklisted with an IMEI Unblacklist Check
- How an iPhone IMEI blacklist removal can Unblacklist an iPhone
- How to unlock blacklisted iPhone
Get your iPhone Unblacklisted with an IMEI Unblacklist iPhone Check:
- Identify whether your iPhone’s IMEI is blacklisted
- Find which carrier blacklisted it
- Learn the blacklist reason
- Find out in which countries your iPhone will not be allowed to operate
- Gain access to available iPhone blacklist removal and unlock services
How an iPhone gets blacklisted
There are three reasons why an iPhone can get blacklisted.
If an phone:
- is reported as stolen or lost to a carrier by the original owner
- is flagged as replaced by an insurance claim or illegal hardware replacement
- is involved in fraud or other illegal activities
The IMEI of this device becomes “bad” and is added to a blacklist database called GSMA (or CEIR).
Each carrier has its own blacklist IMEI database which is shared among all carriers within a country, and some countries even share them with each other.
Specifically in the USΑ, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and Puerto Rico, this is happening with almost all carriers. According to many of our visitors, Colombia has recently joined forces.
iPhones with an outstanding financial balance (unpaid contract bills) are considered to be Blocked iPhones.
What happens to a blacklisted IMEI?
Before explaining how to unblacklist an iPhone, it is really important to know about the restrictions of a blacklisted phone.
You cannot use the device with any mobile network in the country where it has been blacklisted.
Of course, the same is true for countries that share the same blacklist database.
This restriction is further extended since the phone cannot be used with any mobile network worldwide unless it is simultaneously SIM unlocked.
In this way, IMEI blacklist databases prevent the use of any device, locally or globally, that is recorded on them.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t stop a thief from selling a blacklisted iPhone to an unsuspecting buyer. Check what you can do if you have already bought a stolen iPhone.
How to identify if an iPhone is blacklisted with an IMEI Unblacklist Check
If you purchased a used iPhone and it has no signal no matter what SIM card you are using, there is a really good chance that it is blacklisted.
However, don’t rush into a desperate and reckless decision since the “no service” issue may be due to an antenna failure.
It is extremely important to check a used iPhone before you buy it and avoid this mess, but if you already have a blacklisted iPhone in your possession then, an iPhone Unblacklist Check is recommended before proceeding with an unblacklist or unlock blacklisted iPhone service. It will provide you with valuable information about the iPhone’s blacklist status and any available solution for unblacklisting or unlocking it.
How an iPhone IMEI blacklist removal can Unblacklist an iPhone
Unblacklisting an iPhone is very different from Unlocking a blacklisted iPhone. The first requires an iPhone IMEI blacklist removal service, and the second a premium iPhone IMEI unlock service.
Which one to pick will depend entirely on the results of your iPhone blacklist check results.
The proper way to remove the blacklisted status of an iPhone is to have the blacklisting canceled by the original owner. Unfortunately, in most cases, this is not possible.
However, IMEI blacklist removal is possible with third-party services. These services will remove the blacklist status of your iPhone, and change the Lost/Stolen status to CLEAN.
Please note that when an iPhone has been successfully unblacklisted, you can only use it on the network that it is locked to. To use it on ALL networks, you would need a separate UNLOCK service.
How to Unlock Blacklisted iPhone
This option is only applicable if you are going to use the iPhone in a different country to the one that blacklisted it due to blacklist restrictions.
This means that if you remove the SIM lock from a blacklisted iPhone you can use it in other countries without any problems.
This service is called Premium IMEI unlock (otherwise known as Premium Factory Unlock). This is the ideal choice for someone who bought a blacklisted iPhone but lives in a different country than the one that blacklisted the iPhone. You can find a list of suppliers that provide Premium IMEI Unlock services on www.iPhoneUnlock.Zone.
Conclusion on iPhone IMEI blacklist Removal & Unlock blacklisted iPhone solutions
There is no universal iPhone unblacklist or unlock blacklisted iPhone solution out there. Each blacklisted iPhone case is unique and requires a very specific solution. Only an IMEI Unblacklist Check report will identify the right IMEI unblacklist or Premium unlock blacklisted iPhones service that can fix your device.
Before getting an IMEI blacklist removal or unlock blacklisted iPhone service, you NEED to know:
- Which network has blacklisted the iPhone and why
- In which country
- If this country shares its blacklist with its neighbors
- If the iPhone is also sim locked or not
- If you need blacklist removal or SIM unlock or maybe both
- If the appropriate services are available
The best and easiest way to find out all the above instantly and essentially check if there is a solution is an

Hello Iris,
The first step is to find out why it was blacklisted. This will help us to find out if there is a service available for cleaning it.
Once you do that (With our iPhone IMEI Unblacklist Eligibility Check service), we will suggest you a method or a service that can remove the Blacklist status from your device.

I bought a new iphone 11pro max and it is blacklisted, if i switch on my iphone it is giving a message”there is a problem with your iphone this iphone cannot activate for service “what should i do plzz help me
Hey Ajith,
It really depends, because you need to know the reason of that blacklist.
I suggest doing an iPhone Unblacklist Eligibility check, so iPhone experts can inform you the exact status of your iPhone and how to start using it again.
I have a Iphone 11 Max Pro (Carrier Free), but is blacklisted what can be the solution for it?
Hey there,
It depends on a few things.
First, from which network your iPhone 11 Pro Max was blacklisted and what is the reason of the Blacklist.
If you are not 100% sure about them, I suggest getting an iPhone IMEI Unblacklist Eligibility Check. It will give you all those information and also locate any available services that can unblacklist your iPhone.
I bought a used IPhone XS Max that is supposed to be unlocked but it has an activation lock and was reported lost/stolen after I purchased it from the person. Is there anything I can do? I have tried contacting them again with no luck. Thank you for your help.
Hello Sarah,
I am afraid that your only option for now is to try and return this item to the seller.
If you made an online purchase and you used PayPal, dispute this transaction and get your money back (I am sure that other online payment methods have similar tools to request your money back).
If an iPhone is iCloud Locked and Blacklisted, then only the original owner can remove it. The only thing you can do, is to bypass the iCloud lock, and use this device for browsing the internet or play/use apps and games.
I have an AT&T iPhone that my boyfriend turned off and reported stolen so he could give his buddy the line so what do I do? I’m in USA
Since your boyfriend reported it as Stolen, it means that he is the original owner of that device. There is not much you can do, especially if he also activated with his iCloud account.
For the time being, only the original owner can remove the Blacklist status from an AT&T USA iPhone.
I have a LOST/STOLEN blacklisted iPhone 6, bought on E-bay, locked to T-Mobile USA.
I´m in Brazil. If I insert a CLARO or VIVO SIM it does read it but does not make calls or send SMS, neither 3G/4G.
I´m using it in Wifi for games and Apps.
Can this be unblacklisted so I can make calls on CLARO or VIVO?
Hello,
My suggestion is to first remove the Blacklist status from your T-Mobile USA iPhone and then try requesting a Lock removal from T-Mobile USA network.
If your iPhone is Network Unlocked, then you can use it with any network you want OUTSIDE from the country that it is Blacklisted. If you Unblacklist it, you will be able to use it with any network you want WORLDWIDE. You can check a solution to the following link: Unbar/Unblacklist Services

Hi. I paid 100 USD to iPhoneIMEI to unlock my blacklisted iPhone 6 and they claimed my iPhone was unlocked.
Only the last month I learned (when I went to India and tried Airtel SIM) that it is still locked.
iPhoneIMEI is claiming the unlock didn’t work because the iPhone was blacklisted.
I lost 100 bucks and have a voucher. Can I trust your service? I understand now that there are so many scammers out there to grab your money. Please advise.

Hi, I got an iPhone 7 from my friend who was in Australia with Vodafone Australia.
He sold it to me really cheap in India but now it’s not working.
His iPhone 7 was an insurance claim so he got a new iPhone 7 but it’s not working with me in India.
How can this be fixed?
I really don’t know much about what happened to my iPhone and I am willing to pay anything to get this iPhone to work.
Hi, I bought an iPhone 7 from someone online. I used it for a couple of days then the individual I bought it from called saying he lost it. Now it says no service cause the carrier blacklisted it as a lost iPhone.
I’m only using it for music and social media.
Is there any way to unblock it so I can use this iPhone in Europe?
The carrier is Rogers it is blacklisted in Canada.
Hi.
I got an iPhone 6 that I purchased about 3 months ago and it started beeping when I tried making calls but it got a signal and I can use 3G on it for internet access.
I have done some checks and found out it was blacklisted by t-mobile UK so, I went onto an eBay blacklisted remover and after a few weeks it happened to put my virgin SIM card in and it rang so I also tried to call out and it was spot on.
It worked for about a week but then stopped working again and I wrote back to the eBay seller who said they would look into it as it’s been removed from the blacklist and a couple months later still nothing.
So, I said I would rather have my refund which they gave me but can you let me know if I can still get this iPhone 6 working and where did I go wrong as I thought that I shouldn’t go back to the same network which blacklisted it.
T-mobile, Virgin, and EE are one and the same here in the UK but the eBayer who removed the blacklist said I could use whatever Wireless Network I want and it wouldn’t get blacklisted again.
So, my question is this:
Can I still get this iPhone 6 I’m using now as an iPod (as it won’t ring in or out but does have a signal and can FaceTime over wifi) unblacklisted or unbarred for the UK?
cheers
Can I use a blacklisted iphone 5s in the philippines outside phililppines?
I’ve got an iPhone 7 from Vodafone Netherlands. Is there any way, if it gets blocked by the provider to unblock it?
My brother in India got an iPhone from our relative who lives in the US.
That relative had an iPhone 6s and he also had an insurance and bought from AT&T.
The person sold the iPhone very cheap to my brother and then made an insurance claim as lost.
My brother unlocked the iPhone through a mobile shop and is using that phone now in India.
If he sends that iPhone to me back in the US can I use that phone without any complication?
They might track the iPhone since it was blocked here before.
Hi, I bought an iPhone 5s in the USA.
I’m from Canada. I bought a straight talk iPhone and they told me it was unlocked.
The phone was working fine until it just won’t let me in. It says SIM not supported.
I called Total Wireless and apparently, the iPhone is not activated and it will not work in Canada because their plans don’t do roaming.
The contract is supposed to be for 12 months and the carrier has blocked unlocking.
Am I still able to unlock it with this iPhone Unlock program?
Please help me.
Thanks

Hi, I have an iPhone 5s and it is carrier locked to AT&T and it is also blacklisted.

Hi, Jose!
A Premium IMEI Unlock Service will SIM Unlock your blacklisted AT&T iPhone and as long as your iPhone was not blacklisted in Europe, you will have no problems in using your iPhone in Europe and everywhere else in the world (except the country it was blacklisted and maybe a few more neighboring countries)
Take care Jose!
I have a blacklisted AT&T iPhone 6 Plus which is blacklisted/Lost. I’m currently not in the USA but I want to get it unlocked to use it overseas. How can I do that? What services can provide fast and secure iPhone unlocking for me?

Hello, I have iPhone 6s locked to T-mobile USA. I tried many unlocking services and all of them came back saying that they could not unlock my iPhone. The money also was refunded. I am currently in India. I want my iPhone to work in India with the local carriers. What can I do? Please help me.
Hi, Gaurang!
We made an extensive research about T-Mobile USA (you can see it on our Carrier Unlock Comparison Pages)
Anyway, if you manage to SIM Unlock your Blacklisted iPhone, it will be 100% usable and since you live in India, you will have no problems in using it in your country!
You can also read this T-Mobile USA Blacklisted iPhone Unlock article for more info.
Take care Gaurang! Your iPhone will be unlocked, at last!
Hello,
someone sold me an iPhone 6s+ and later I checked and the phone was blacklisted in the USA by Sprint due to unpaid bills. I did the background check for the premium IMEI unlock service and it says that you can use any sim card with it, but it also mentions that any blacklisted phone will not work in the country it is blacklisted in, so does that mean that even if I get it unlocked I won’t be able to use it with another carrier’s sim card here in the us?
Hi, Leslie!
Since your iPhone is Blacklisted for pending contract bills, you can SIM Unlock it inside the USA and worldwide, with all GSM Mobile Networks but you won’t be able to use Sprint ever again unless the pending contract bills are paid!
Take care Leslie!
I found an iPhone on a train. It is now disabled and globally blacklisted. How can I unlock this iCloud Locked and Blacklisted iPhone if I don’t know the wireless network provider?

hello,
I have a blacklisted iPhone 6s in India which was blocked AT&T USA and I want to use it with Telus. How can I unlock the iPhone and remove it from USA’s blacklist?
Hi, Ram!
Is your iPhone blacklisted by AT&T or Telus?
You really need to figure out which Carrier blacklisted and locked your iPhone 6s!
Get an IMEI Check Service!
They will reveal everything about your iPhone and offer you the right IMEI Unlock Service!
Because the iPhone is blacklisted, you will need a Premium IMEI Unlock Service!
The good news is that since you live in India you will have no problems in using your iPhone in your country and all other countries in the world (except USA, Canada, Mexico & Puerto Rico)
I hope, I’ve helped!
Take care Ram and come back to tell me how it went!
hello,
I have a blacklisted iPhone 5s in India which was blocked by Telus in Canada. How can I unlock this iPhone and remove it from Canada’s blacklist?
You can SIM unlock your blacklisted iPhone 5s.
Your iPhone 5s, after the Network Unlock, will remain blacklisted in Canada (and maybe the USA, Mexico and Puerto Rico) but you will have no problems to use it in India and everywhere else in the world with any GSM Mobile network!
Unfortunately, there is no way to unblacklist an iPhone (unless the original owner report that he/she found it, pay his/her pending contract bills or authorities decide that the iPhone was not involved in illegal activities)
But again, in your case, you won’t have any problems using it!
I hope, I’ve helped! Come back to tell me how it went!
Take care Nav!
Hello. I bought a Verizon iPhone 7 plus. It was ok when I bought it but 2 days later while working with T-Mobile, just stopped working because the guy reported the iPhone as lost or stolen. It is already unlocked.
What can I do to use it with T-Mobile?
If I sell it, is it gonna work in other Countries?
Thanks
Hi, Carlos!
This is a common iPhone Scam!
The guy who sold you the iPhone will get a new one from his insurance plan and yours is now blacklisted inside the country you are living!
If you are living in the USA your iPhone is also blacklisted in Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico!
The iPhone will remain blacklisted forever from now on unless the dude who scammed you, report that he found the iPhone and there aren’t services that can unblacklist a Verizon iPhone!
Verizon is not SIM locking the iPhones (as far as I know) so you are right!
Even if it was the only thing a Premium IMEI Unlock Service would do would be to SIM Unlock the iPhone!
Unfortunately, the only thing left for you to do is to sell this iPhone 7 Plus via an online market to a country it isn’t blacklisted (basically the whole world except USA, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico)
I’m so sorry you were scammed!
I hope, I’ve helped!
Take care!

Hi,
I have a blacklisted iPhone 5s to 3 network Ireland. Is it possible to unlock to any Irish network or should I just throw it away?
Hello, Michelle!
Don’t lose all hope.
The best way to be sure about your iPhone is an iPhone IMEI Check Service!
They will not only tell you everything about your iPhone (you already know that it blacklisted by 3 Network Ireland but maybe there is more to it)
But they will also suggest how to unlock your iPhone.
You will only need the iPhone’s IMEI number (find the iPhone’s IMEI number)
The good news is that if they don’t manage to find an unlocking solution for your problem or your iPhone can’t be unlocked, you will get All your money back, even those spent for the IMEI Check Service (I think the IMEI Check costs around 9 to 10 US dollars)
I really believe that your iPhone can be unlocked but because it is blacklisted you might not be able to use it in Ireland but this doesn’t mean you have to throw it away!
You can always sell it on online stores like eBay, Amazon or Craigslist because your iPhone will not be blacklisted to a foreign country and iPhone 5s is the second most popular iPhone model + unlocked second-hand iPhones are sold $100 to $200 more expensive than the locked ones
Feel free to ask me anything else and also to tell me how your blacklisted iPhone 5s Unlocking went!
Take care!
Hey, help me out.
I bought an iPhone 6 through third party and it was an unlocked phone from UK o2. Or so, I thought…
I generated my iPhone id on this phone but I was unable to unlock icloud on this phone.
But I am also not able to use my sim card.
What is the solution? I missed that guy’s phone number, so how can I find the iPhone’s owner?
Hi!
The only way to bypass the iCloud Lock is to find the original owner and as I see you know that!
If you can’t find his phone number or email all you need is reading this updated iCloud Unlock Guide 2018
iPhone 6+ locked to iCloud of the previous owner.
Blacklisted, reported as stolen/lost
I am scammed twice now… 1st is when I bought the iPhone… 2nd is paying online to unlock it on iCloud and they said it’s blacklisted so my money was gone… Can this iCloud Locked iPhone get repaired??? if yes, can we do a deal? Since I’m afraid to get scammed again, I would like the Activation Lock Repair 1st and pay later. I will submit all my info and ID or everything you’ll ask for… I’m no scammer… I’m a victim of a scammer… So please help me 🙁
I am sorry to hear that Janice and sorry for the time waited for a reply.
A blacklisted iPhone can be unlockable with a proven Unlock services provider like iPhoneUnlock.Zone
For the ”iCloud Locked” part you need to read these Free iCloud Unlock Tips.
No matter what you do (and I wish you good luck) I can tell you this in order not to get scammed again:
Always do an IMEI Check for iPhone’s overall Lock status & hidden issues BEFORE you buy it & BEFORE you go for an unlock service!
This is the only way to do it right!
Tell me how it went. (this time I will answer you ASAP)
Hi,
Will you be able to unlock a Vodafone NZ blacklisted iPhone 5S?
I have a blacklisted iPhone 6s, locked under AT&T USA. The IMEI is 35325**********
Hi Cierra, I’ve come across your inquiry regarding blacklisted iPhone 6s in the UltraSnow website.
I found out that your iPhone has been cleared and clean of blacklisting.
Would you be kind enough to share how you did you unblacklist your iPhone?
I bought an iPhone on eBay and it was working fine, but after a couple of weeks, it went blacklisted. C
Can you please share how you did your blacklist Staus cleaned?
Thank you very much in advance.
Hi there, can my iPhone 6s+ be unlocked?
It was working fine when I bought it but was blacklisted 3 weeks later.
Because it is on contract and the used iPhone seller is refusing to give my money back.
Do I have any iPhone Unlock options?
I bought an iPhone 5s online. I tried an icloud unlock as soon as I got it but I was told it’s on Apple’s icloud stolen list.
But the iPhone is also locked to sprint USA. Is there a way I can unlock it?
Hey Khorby,
First, you need to remove the iCloud Lock from your device. The only way to remove an iCloud Lock from an iPhone is FMI Removal Guide.
After removing the iCloud Lock from your device, then you can proceed with a Premium Sprint USA iPhone unlock service
Hypothetically speaking, what can I be recommended to do after I pay for an Icloud and blacklist unlock?
Hi Tecksmith.
For the time being, there is not a service that can remove the iCloud Lock from a blacklisted device. In such cases, only the original owner or Apple can remove the iCloud Lock and the blacklist status of that iPhone. If you do not know how to contact the original owner, I suggest reading this iCloud Unlocking through Apple Guide.
Hi, my iPhone 5s is locked and also blacklisted. I want to get it unlocked and also clean it so please tell me how I can do it. its carrier is Vodafone UK and the imei is 358686*********
Hey Anees,
Your iPhone can be unlocked, even if it is blacklisted. After the unlock, the blacklist status will not get removed. The best option for you, will be to contact the original owner and ask him to remove the blacklist status of that device.
I have a blocked/blacklisted iPhone 5s locked to T-Mobile USA. I tried many unlocking services online and all of them came back saying that they could not unlock my iPhone. The money also was refunded. I am currently in India. I won’t be going to the USA anytime soon. However, I want my iPhone to work in India with the local carriers. What do I do? I currently use the iPhone 5s to play games and listen to music. I spoke to T-Mobile tech support regarding this and they were like the phone needs to be in the USA to unlock. This is not going to happen. Is there a way that from here in India I can unlock my iPhone that is Blocked/blacklisted to the USA network? Also, it is running iOS 7.1.3 and it is jailbroken. What can I do now? Will you be able to help with this problem?
Hey Arjum,
What do you mean that it needs the iPhone to be inside USA to get unlocked? Is this iPhone activated with T-Mobile USA Network? If it is activated then it can be also unlocked. Go to the following link and pick T-Mobile USA Network and “Yes, it is blacklisted”. You will see the Premium T-Mobile USA iPhone Unlock service, which can unlock your iPhone so you can use it inside India.
Hi, l have an iPhone blacklisted to Vodafone UK. Can I unlock it because l wanna use it in Italy.
Hi, Paco and have a happy new year!
As far as I know blacklisted UK iPhones remain blacklisted after SIM Unlocking only inside the UK so, you will have no problem in using your iPhone inside Italy or any other place in the world (except the UK, of course)
Take care Paco!
I have a blacklisted Verizon iPhone which I want to use in Fiji.
