Well, I don't know how all of you got so lucky with unlocking the sim, but I just got off the phone with a global rep and he told me that I have to have my phone for six months before I can "technically" unlock the sim. (Because of the fact that when people unlock it, they take their phones to T-Mobile.) (Direct quote.)
I told him that I was going abroad and wanted to use a pre-paid sim and after about 20 minutes of him talking about his granddaughter and international calling rates and how to make sure to use Verizon overseas, I had to say goodbye...
What did I do wrong? Should I call back and hope I get a more reasonable rep? Will they have a record of the call and what I was asking for?
What to do... What to do...? Any advice from people who know the Verizon system?
Thanks in advance,

**EDIT/UPDATE: Turns out that the guy I talked to the first time was just a douche... Second rep was cool and gave me the sim unlock #, no questions asked. Guess it's the luck of the draw when it comes to getting a good rep.
