Did I get taken?

I have an LG C1300 that is locked to Cingular. I sent 7 dollars using PayPal to a site in the UK. They sent a link to a web page with unlock codes for LG phones but the C1300 was not listed.

I e-mailed the people I sent the money too and heard nothing. I filed a complaint with PayPal and they told me to according to OUR agreement as long as the hustlers sent anything PayPal will do nothing.

When I put a T-Mobil SIM in the phone it asks for a code, it appears to be 4 digits. What can I do besides putting a stop on the payment to PayPal as I used a credit card? PayPal is less than honest so I always use a credit card.

Oy thats a bad situation....dang

You could try calling T-mobile to see if they will do anything, but I doubt they will be able to.
I would find a site that your sure has the unlock code for your phone and get it unlocked.

T-Mobil has nothing to do with the LG C1300 Cingular brand phone. In order to unlock that phone I would have to beg at&t/Cingular for the 4 digit code.

The phone belonged to my son under a contract. Cingular as at&t was known at that time is and was a band of thieves. There is a reason Carriers want to lock one into a sucker deal. They want to extort money legally from the uninformed the contract usually in LARGE PRINT SHOUTS $39.9 a month. Then there is the USF, State Tax, money you must give us because you have signed the paper. Two months into the contract the thriven bastards show there true colors.

My son stopped paying and his credit probably has a black mark saying he would not pay exhortation.

So calling the robber barons at at&t will do no good. I have ordered a cable and software that will totally wipe out the at&t brain of that phone and make it a generic LG C1300. I get a cable that will unlock every LG.

The US Library of Congress is on my side and at&t can go pound salt. I'm smarter than they are; my PC and I know everything.

As for PayPal telling me tough crap over $6.98, I am going to write to PayPal’s head money changer. I am embarrassed to say how much money if mine passed through PayPal over the last 4 years but when the head money changer looks it up I will defiantly get more that a form letter from a $5 dollar an hour piss ant that doesn’t like his job.
