(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. |
yeah like i said in the first post u might have to call more then once some reps have the need of control and power!!

no, they can unlock it. It's at the reps discretion. If they won't do it, try again. It's annoying when people actually want to use their phone overseas with a far less expensive pre-paid, and these douche reps won't let you.

verizon shouldnt be tripping cuz for once the device they put out are selling and no one who has bought it is complaining unlike the fist tp!!
