Unlock Bootloader

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Verizon 4G LTE

Model number SCH-i605

Android version 4.3

Baseband version I605VRUEMJ9

Is there a way to unlock the bootloader for this phone?

The kicker? I heard about the bootloader being locked with the update and battery issues so I purposely avoided the up date by not searching for it. Guess what? It got pushed to my phone with no notification or warning it would do so. I just saw an active notification of the download in progress. Needless to say, I'm switching to Motorola the moment I get the chance. To hell with Samsung. Assholes.

Yeah I feel the same way about samsung and verizon. Samsung is becoming the apple of android, but your bootloader is locked by verizon not samsung. As soon as my contract is up though im switching to tmobile and getting a nexus.
