Confused about whether unlocking is necessary...

Ok, I followed all of the directions and upgraded my bootloader, radio and ROM. Even though I selected Alltel fro the carrier when cooking the ROM, and it shows Alltel when dialing data, when you dial *228 you get a Verizon prompt still.

Alltel was happy to activate it but because I can't dial *228 and get through to the Alltel service instead of Verizon, I can;t complete the Alltel activation process.

I feel like I am in the home stretch and would love it if anybody could help me get this resolved. Thanks much in advance!
