Hey guys,i have ordered a white Blackberry torch locked to Vodafone,because i am getting the phone from an upgrade from my parents contract.
I was just wondering whats good website to get the unlock code,as i am an o2 user i need this phone unlocked.
I have looked at this website:
http://www.cellunlocker.net/blackberry-unlock.php
And there charging £8 for the unlock code,has anyone had experience with this website?? If so is it reliable,or perhaps reconmend me a trusty site,because i don't really fancy paying £19.99 for unlock code from Vodafone even though its safest option.

And i was just wondering,because i am on O2 simplicity on unlimited text and internet would i still need the blackberry bolton??

Thanks

Go to eBay.co.uk There are lots of safe and reliable sellers on there with codes going for as little as 0.99.

Try these guys.

I used them on Friday last week for a vodafone UK BB code and it worked.

Forget that. Most of them say postal mail in order to satisfy eBay's seller requirements. Just click add message in the eBay checkout process when purchasing it and tell them which company the phone is locked to (vodafone), the exact type of BB (torch 9800) and the phone's IMEI.

You should get an email from them within an hour (minutes most times) with your unlock code.

You will need the Blackberry bolt-on if you want to use data, send/ receive emails etc. If you dont put the bolt-on on your account you can only send/ receive texts and make phone calls.

I am in the Caribbean and would not know about O2 but I can say that without internet you cannot access BB messenger and the likes.

So would you reconmend changing my tariff to something like unlimited text and 100minute call then add the blackberry bolt-on?? Because my current tariff is unlimited text and 500mb data.
