Reliable web-based unlock service?

Can anyone recommend a reliable web-based service for unlocking a Motorola Krazer phone? I've seen various sites charging anywhere between $6.99 & $40 for a remote unlock code (don't want to send in my phone anywhere). I did a purchase from a site about 2 years ago for my Motorola Razor phone, but it didn't work & I basically wasted 30 bucks on it.

Anyone sucessfully unlock a Krazer & have any suggestions for it?

Thanks!

I've used GSMLiberty.com, but there are cheaper ones out there. Look on ebay for an unlocker with good feedback.

Which carrier do you use? AT&T will give you the code for free if you've been there for 90 days. Just tell them you're leaving the country and need a foreign sim.

You can also search for forums that deal with Krazor phones. They always have techies that will do it for free.

I highly recommend gsmphonesource.com

Let me further comment. This is done by a guy named Adam. I sent in my fee and then was given my code the same day. It might take two business days but Adam is reliable.

^ to the gsmphonesource.com recommendation--Adam does a great job.

studio253, I have AT&T - but I didn't get this phone through AT&T - I got it from a buddy who got it through his work (also an AT&T account) for free - so I'd like to keep it off the AT&T radar...

Thanks for the recommendations - I'll check them out...

Just a recap...

I ended up using Adam at gsmphonesource.com - everything worked perfectly - got the code the next day & tried it that night on my KRZR and it worked like a charm.

Thanks for the recommendations!
