When the contract period expires, you can call them to get the code to unlock the phone

dont quote me on this but AFIK the operator is obliged to unlock the phoen after the contract expires on request as the phone is actualy your property now and not the property of the network as during your contract. altho some operators may charge upto £20.


some 1 i know was on orange contract and he wanted it unlocked after 6 months so he phoned them up and they wanted £220 for it as that is the amount of line rental he would have payed and then a £20 unlocking fee cos it was mid contract

orange is a pain in the ass to get unlocked. i managed to get my old 3310 to accept any sim but it wouldent get signal but as soon as i put in my orange sim it got signal. so im guessin its locked there end some how. aswell.
