hi
if you get a pay & go sim then youll be an o2 customer

http://android.modaco.com/content/d...-just-sent-me-unlock-code-for-my-dell-streak/
just take no as an answer, keep emailing them back until they say YES, and address your email to SAGAR.
(also tell them that there are HEAPS of forum members got the code from them already)
ps. i got mine unlocked and i'm in AUS
GL

I hve tried a lot, n even sagar has declined my request

I live in greece, i have a locked to O2 phone, and they deny to unlock it because i am not an O2 customer!!

Sagar send me the mail... they told me to find the first owner of the phone!!!! stupid....things!

I don't see why o2 should unlock the phone for you. As they say, you're not an o2 customer, you're not contributing revenue to them and never have. Why should they unlock the phone for you to use on a different network? No-one forced you to buy an o2 streak after all

How unsupportive.

How about paying $20 and getting an unlock code from one of the online websites?

I'm sorry for not being supportive, but as an o2 customer I would effectively be subsidising his/her phone being unlocked. o2 are running a business after all, which makes them very unlikely to start giving stuff away for free. I feel more supportive towards o2 for protecting their revenue stream and (hopefully) in turn keeping my costs as a customer down.
My suggestion for the OP would be to sell the locked Streak and get an unlocked version, or to pay a commercial site to unlock it as suggested above.

You can buy unlock codes from eBay at around 8£.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161120336570?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
That's an eBay premium seller right there. I got mine unlocked. It kinda says it takes 24 hours to send you the code but I got mine in under 15 minutes. Sends you an email to the PayPal email address with the unlock code.

I got my UK Note 3 unlocked for £7.99 within an hour here's the link to the actual one I used:

New possible purchase

Ok guys. I have an s4. Am in UK and an thinking of getting a note 3 on tesco mobile. How easy is it to unlock so I can use my 3 network sim. It was simple on s4. Same deal on note 3?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Simplest and easiest way is to get an unlock code either from the network provider you are with or as you are on three network. ... They are unlocking for free. There is a thread on that. .. check it out.
You ring up three from your three sim option 3,3,2,1 (something like that) and give them your imei number and within 7 days they will send you the unlock code.
Worked for me on a vodafone locked phone

well its a tesco mobile note 3 - and I want to use my three micro sim card
was wondering if the app 'region lock away' would do the trick?
dont want to sign up for a contract if I cant unlock it myself

Like I said you can still get it unlocked by three. I got my Vodafone locked phone unlocked by three.

Dont pay, theres a free way to unlock your phone to other networks ...
its on XDA somewhere !! ( i cant remember the name of it currently, but ill update you once I remember )

surely i would need to speak to tesco mobile if its locked to their network? not three?
or am i being stupid??
really need to get this sorted asap - gotta decide in about 30 mins if i am getting this phone
i like the s4 which i have, but the note 3 looks awesome....lol

I've said it to you twice. My phone was locked top Vodafone and I have the imei to three and they gave me the unlock code which worked and now my phone is unlocked

Was just double checking. That seems very good of them! Was there a fee involved? And did they do it right away?

Buy the phone. ... You don't even have to open the box. ... The imei number is on the box (I would open just to make sure of everything) give the a call and if you don't get a code. ... Give the phone back or ask tesco to unlock or use one of these websites to get the code

They aren't doing it to be nice, it makes good business sense to make your phone accept a 3 sim so they can start taking money from you.
You can also get a Note3 unlocked for £7 in about 1hr on eBay

After all that. The phone was factory unlocked! Got it from carphone warehouse. £27 contract. Free handset. Working fine on my 3 sim. Thanks for your help guys!

Yeah CPW and P4U sell unlocked handsets with their contracts as they get them in direct rather than via a carrier.

SIM Unlock - [Completed]

Hi Folks
Im not selling anything here, but because my Device was locked to Voda I had to get it unlocked.
I went to http://sim-unlock.net/ and they unlocked it for me in 7 mins. I tried Voda and they charged me £19.99 for it (23 Euros ish)
Think it was something like £8.56 after conversion but its awesome now .
The website looked a bit dodgy at first but sorted in the end.
I tried to do my Desire C unlock action here, but i had issues tracking down the storage section on the device which is used for Simunlocking a unit. .
Anyhow... Devs, if you feel this is Spam please delete, but im pretty sure that lots of people will ask.

Hey bro, there is a free way to SIM unlock the m 8. I forget the thread link but it is in the general section of the one forum hdre

I am having alot of difficultly in getting my M8 unlocked. It is locked to Vodafone Ireland and none of the websites i have tried are able to unlock it yet. I have contacted sim-unlock, but i doubt they will be able to do anything for me yet.

I thought Vodafone didn't sim lock the handests ?...just brand them. All my Vodafone uk handsets have been on all sims

P.s. I didn't checked straight away when I got a phone from three store, (didn't had nanosim) and I know and I'm witness of they saying our "phones are sim locked" but same time phones are not locked. My Previous phones from three are samsung galaxy s3 and note 3 and both was not simlocked
so anyway my m8 are sim free now or who knows maybe was already, didn't checked just start do and then check.

I have noticed these days it is only certain companies that require sim locking. Most others don't care.

Well, you are in trouble. Vodafone changing the code and doesn't seem to storing them properly. My contract ran out so asked for the code. They supplied one, but didn't worked. Same thing from some unblocking sites. You have 10 attempts then is hard locked.
After a bit of "fighting" I received replacement and sim free.

The first batch aren't locked, specially on high demand devices. So if you are among the first getting the phone you are in luck.
