Does removing a Verizon SIM card unlock an iPhone 6s?

I recently left Verizon Wireless and have 2 iPhone 6s which I would like to sell. I wiped the phones and removed the Verizon SIM cards. Does this mean the phones are unlocked?

If they are still "locked," can I sell them anyway?

No it doesn't it is still only for Verizon sim card unless you or the buyer pays to get it unblocked for any card.

A Verizon phone store can unlock them.

Make the short trip.

No it doesn't. Though I believe Verizon phones were sold unlocked from the start so it shouldn't matter in this case.

Whether or not they are unlocked you can sell them anyway, would just have to acknowledge that they are locked & to which carrier.

But again, I think it is unlocked already. Could check with another carrier's SIM to verify.

No, it does not mean your phone is unlocked.

Not really.

  • Will any Verizon SIM card work in an Verizon iPhone 4S? I had recently acquired an iPhone 4S from an old friend. I was wondering if I could buy a cheap Verizon phone with a pay as you go plan, and remove the SIM from the cheap phone, cut it down to a Micro-SIM, and place it in my new iPhone.

  • My iPhone 5s carrier is Verizon but my Verizon SIM Card won't work? I bought an SIM Card off of Amazon but it still doesn't work? It says it's invalid and that it's not the right carrier. I bought it off Craigslist but I have all the info, even the date that the phone was purchased.
