Carrier lock

I have a byod and unlocked it to move to another carrier and xfinity still has a carrier lock on it 5 days later and claims it could be days. I have a repair ticket. I’ve talked to store employees, tier 2, and they all claim it's a back end issue.

This should not be that hard. Unlock my phone.
