Your phone will be unlocked automatically within up to 48 hours of being paid off.

Here are the other unlock requirements to be aware of:

  • At least 60 days must pass since your phone was activated.
  • Your Xfinity Mobile account cannot have a past-due balance.
  • Your phone cannot be reported lost, stolen, or involved in fraudulent activity.

If you believe you’ve met these requirements, but your phone is still locked, chat with Xfinity Assistant.

@DreamSayerZ​ BAHAHAHAHAHA! Respectfully, no it won't. It won't even be unlocked within 72 hours when requested for a phone that meets alllll their requirements.

I paid up front for an expensive Motorola phone. It took 5 hours before I could even activate it. I had to actually drive to an Xfinity store. But then I could not get any data. So I spent another 15 hours on the phone well they passed me from one Tech to another, and no joy. I decided to go back to my old carrier so I must unlock my phone. But they just informed me that I cannot do that for another 60 days. 60 days without a working cell phone. I wish I had never heard of Xfinity mobile
