Default Unlock GM stereo

Anyone know who does this in Calgary? Called a chevy dealer and no go.
GM use to have a hotline you could get codes from but that no longer is running .Place in Edmonton I found but needs radio.
Cant seem to find someone in Calgary.
You tube shows hacks but you lose pre set radio stations.

Weird. Never heard of this before. It looks like it is some anti theft thing?

This link has some ideas. Not sure if you tried them all.

Go for the hacks, it takes less time to reprogram the settings than to start a new thread.
How old is the vehicle/stereo? For the older ones it might even be cheaper to install some basic aftermarket, with better quality/more options...

Found a guy on kijiji that repairs instrument clusters,radios steering wheel lights etc.
He took the VIN chip from the original radio and installed into the new one.$50.
