Wonder if anyone can help. Been given a nice Sony Ericcsson 750 as my friend is upgrading but it's not working with my 02 sim card (I don't have contract just Pay as you Go) can anyone tell me what's wrong and what I can do? Thanks.

Did the phone come on a vodafone contract originally? if that is the case then you need to get the phone unlocked either get you friend to call vodafone which will be free if the 12 months is over on the contract or take it to a shop/market and they can unlock it or you then you can use any sim.The more i save the more i can spend:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:0

Just been into Vodafone shop and guy says I would need to pay £20 for them to unlock it. Robbing toe-rags! Any suggestions?0

might be cheaper in a smaller independant shop?0

If your friend has come to the end of the contract then get them to call vodafone for the unlock code as they should give it to them free of charge, ive had 2 free unlock codes from them when the 12 months has been over but it has to be the named person on the contract who requests the codes.The more i save the more i can spend:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:0
