Thanks. I did submit a request before calling AT&T. Below is what I got. I just wanted to try some official way to unlock my iPhone. Given that AT&T provide that service, I think that's the right of a customer.
Request number: 391xxxx

Secondly, if that doesn't work, your 50 minutes of time is definitely worth more than $5-10. There are a lot of alternative ways to unlock your phone that you might consider. I'm not going to post any links, but I know for a fact many exist.
Good luck to you, and I'm sorry about your bad experience. Your mileage definitely varies while talking on the phone to a huge company.
