Peugeot key coding in NI

Mum has a Peugeot 206 and we have recently found out that the spare key will not start it.
It would appear that this key has lost it's code or possibly never had a code, it is the original spare key not a copied one.
Anyway I have tried 2 locksmiths, 1 in Ards and Havlins in Bangor and they cannot do it. A Peugeot dealer will for £30 plus VAT (if we have a wee card with a code on it or it will be another £20)
Is there anywhere else we could have this done in NI at a less extortionate rate?
BTW the car is 5 year old so warranty is out.
TIA

Unfortunately I don't have any experience of this so can't offer any suggestions.
Maybe it would be worthwhile taking a look on the Motoring board as more people might see your posts? I appreciate they wouldn't all be from NI though... Northern Ireland club member No 382 :j0 -
I've an idea that Marlowe Cleaners, the key-cutting/shoe repair/dry cleaning place at Forestside (beside the Northern bank - outside shops) might do it. I seem to recall seeing a sign in their window about key coding. Worth a try.0
