asker so its like this. If you do it online it works. I JUST UNLOCKED A PHONE THAT NEVER HAD SERVICE ON IT!!!!!!!!

    Atusb if you bought it used or refurbished that might be why

      Atusb the tracfone reps are not known for being too bright, they probably didn’t know about the policy change, try calling their unlocking department directly at 888-442-5102

        whynot i called that department. theyre not any brighter lol but thank you

        Funny thing, I went on to TracFone's website yesterday and I noticed that they have the LG classic brand new in stock for $30. I got to order 2 before it went out of stock again, One of them actually shipped today. This phone has been out of stock for more then a year, How do they suddenly have it in stock?

          Weirdo they are restructuring their warehouses after Verizon bought them out, they must have found some overlooked stock

              whynot Is that a fact? Or good guess?

                Flippy A definite guess and possible fact (I know they are restructuring their warehouses, I’m guessing about the overlooked stock)

                  whynot It sounds so funny. But could be. I don't have a better explanation myself.

                  Weirdo are you sure they are brand new and not refurbished?

                    Atusb the brand new ones were available for a little while, not as much as the refurbished ones, now they’re both out of stock.
