> Can Orange Unlock a P800 immediately?
Bookmark topic
Hi folks,
I am starting a new thread with this as noone has actually come up with the answer yet.
Can Orange unlock a phone if I am prepared to pay their charges? I don't mind paying their £20 unlock fee, or 12 months line rental in advance, but I want the phone unlocked immediately, not in like a week.
Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance.
Andy

We can unlock but will take 7 to 10 days cos we get codes from se. Full contract charges and 20 quid admin fee. Call 150 and they will sort it. You might even speak to me!

I thought you didn't have to pay the 12months in advance anymore? I heard from some orange peeps that when it was reduced from £30/35 they also removed the 12months line rental requirement.

Nope. 20 quid to unlock plus 12 months contract. Clever, dont you think!

Well I promised the geezer I'd post here so here it is:
I had my P800 unlocked (after a random roadtrip on Friday night....

) by the firm below on Saturday. The bloke nipped out the shop with it, and when he returned 5 mins later my P800 was on vodaphone.

I can recommend them very heartily, although £30 is a lot (even though thats what everyone seems to charge) for the length of time it takes.
Very nice considerring I now have my unlimited GPRS working perfectly...
I might even delete the icon for GPRS data log

Sorry to seem ignorant, but what actual benifits would I get if any for unlocking my P800
I'm on Orange with a 12 month contract.
Would it mean that a mate with a Vodafone/o2/Tmobile simm could use the phone?
