    Are you sure it's locked to Orange, can you make & receive calls from it. Have you tried another network in your phone, it may be unlocked already.

    I have an orange sim which i can use in the phone to make & receive calls and send texts etc, i when i insert a sim from another network it tells me that the sim is not valid, so i assume the that it is locked to Orange, thanks again for any help you can provide.

    Orange says it's £20 to unlock the phone, but they can't do it anyway since I'm not with Orange. Help?!

    (edit) sighh! If I was on Orange, why would I want to unlock my phone?! :/

    You said it was on Orange, but you need a pro unlocker, or a market stall to unlock it.

    The phone is locked to Orange and the code will need to come from them.

    There are no free unlocking codes for your model, you will have to contact your network provider/market stall/pro unlocker, but they will cost.
