Hello TiPb community,
We are considering opening a new iPhone unlocking website and would love to get the opinions of the TiPb.com community members. We are also potentially looking to hire qualified jailbreak and unlock support agents.
Now before everyone jumps into this thread and says how paid iPhone unlocking websites are total scams and the scum of the earth, please read the entire post before casting your opinions.
The site we intend to make will do the following:
1. Clearly state that iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad jailbreaking and unlocking is completely free to do using software that is easily accessible to anyone on the internet FREE of charge.
2. Clearly give credit to the iPhone Dev Team, the Chronic Dev Team, and all the other hackers that make jailbreaking and unlocking possible and FREE.
We don't want to trick anybody into purchasing from us, and we will also be pointing out how all those other "iPhone unlocking websites" do just that. Trick people into buying from them by making people think it is their own magic software.
We will provide our members with a members area where we will keep all the guides updated with the newest and most relevant information and software versions. This is more just a convenience for the members and not what we are selling.
So what are we selling?
The simple answer is support. We want to be something similar to how Best Buy has "The Geek Squad". We would like to be able to offer our customers support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through email, a support ticket system, and live chat help. That is really all we would be selling.
I've been jailbreaking and unlocking my devices since this all started back in 2007. I also know that most people just want to jailbreak and unlock and then get on with their lives. They don't want to have to follow all the jailbreak/unlock news that comes out and worry about what's next.
So the service we are thinking about launching solves that problem. Our members area will keep them up to date with the newest info and most importantly provide them with real 24/7 support should they need it. They will basically have their own personal jailbreak/unlock geek on call 24 hours a day to answer all their questions and help them use all the FREE softwares, and then get on with their lives.
We do not want to be viewed as one of those "iPhone unlock scam sites", and we believe our business model is completely straight forward and completely honest with potential customers.
As this site is all about support we are potentially looking for up to 8 qualified people to be customer support agents for our new site. We will need people from all around the world so we can deliver on our "24 hours a day" support service. If this sounds like something you might be interested in then please send me a PM.
We hope this sounds like a website the TiPb.com community can support and get behind.
What are you thoughts though on whether or not you would consider the type of site we want to make to be a "scam site"?
Regardless of the fact that you wouldn't purchase support or think others wouldn't purchase support, do you think after we tell our customers they can jailbreak or unlock their devices for FREE, that then offering our support service to them is somehow unethical?
Would you consider our site which is completely honest and upfront with the customer, to be in the same category as those other unlock "scam sites" that claim the software to be their own?
Now we seek your opinions, suggestions, comments or what ever you would like to say about this topic.
Thanks
