Nokia 6288 Unlock and De-brand

OK I have been given a Nokia 6288 from a friend. I know it is quite old but its in mint condition and the Sony Ericsson K850i I currently have is on its way out.

The 6288 is locked to 3 so need to unlock it. It has had a failed unlock code entered too many times to be done by code. It also has the 3 branded software which I dont want either.

Is there anything I can do to unlock and de-brand myself or do I have to send it somewhere to be done? If so wheres the best place to send it too? I don't have any trusted mobile shops near me.

Thanks in Advance :)
