I have been using the iPhone since the first version. I skipped a lot of them, and I am not one of the fan boys that always has the newest one. My wife and I get them one at the same time, and I have two unlocked iPhone 6s on my desk that I need to put on EBAY, but I have the experience of doing it.

Anyway, I unlocked bot of them. I just went to the web site, and requested an unlock code, it took 24 hours of so to get it. They are now unlocked. My current phone was purchased outright, and I bet it too is locked, but I have not checked.

Most likely you will need to go to an AT&T store, and have that fun. Since you were not the original owner, you will need to provide some proof your relative is dead, and that the phone is not stolen. Good luck, most likely it will suck getting it unlocked.

If you have the phone in your possession, even if the calling is disabled, you can set it up to use wifi, and use it for every function, except making a call. It would be a miniature iPad, and iPod all in one.
