So I found a page that claims they can send you an unlock code for your phone just by you sending your IMEI and it is for the modest price of 12.00, so I figured what did I have to lose.

I fill out the form and then once I am all set, I get an error saying sorry, you have a cdma Ultra which we can not unlock, only GSM phones are able to be unlocked via this method.

Why would their be a difference in the unlock method just because it uses different radios?

There is no GSM Droid Ultra. My guess is you are trying to buy a SIM unlock which is unnecessary as the Ultra is not SIM locked to begin with.
