Help ! Can i get my phone unlocked for free ?

Good Morning,

I have an LG KC910 RENOIR which has completed its contract period and is therfore out of contract. The phone is mine to do with as I wish now. However, in order to sell it I believe I need to unlock it from the 3 network it was on ? Do I contact 3 and ask them for an unlock code to do this so it can be used on any network and I am free to sell ?

    If the phone is locked to the 3 network, the code will need to come from them.

    As this was previously a contract phone, it could already be unlocked. You would need to try an alternative SIM to test this.

    PAYG SIM cards can be obtained online free of charge from alternative networks.
