Bootloader unlock allowed:NO

Hello guys!I just bought a Sony Xperia Z3 , but unfortunately when I wanted to root it and checked bootloader,it was NO.Sony,please change this,it's not fair,because I paid to get my phone sim free so I want this to the bootloader.C'mon guys,don't tell me you can't(in Spain,Portugal or France you could change the status).By the way,I'm from Romania.I'm waiting for you answers!

Did you buy it from orange or vodafone? I am from Romania too. It is not country related.

That's not up to Sony, contact your network/carrier, they will have to approve this and contact Sony, probably pay them too, so they can replace the motherboard.

There you have it,you bought it from vodafone,probably with non unlockable bootloader. If you unlock from the operator,the bootloader status is intact.
