    To turtle - that doesn't sound right. Have you tried taking the sim out and putting it in again to make sure it's properly seated? Also have you received the Orange text update, switched off the phone and then back on again?

    Thanks , yes it was just me being dim as it was just the sim not inserted propperly as soon as I opened it and reinseted it it's working fine .THANK YOU for replying :D

    If you want to unlock, just use my instructions below..it worked for me.

    Download Nokiafree Unlock from http://unlock.nokiafree.org/NokiaFREE_v310_Nokia_unlock_codes_calculator.zip

    To obtain the IMEI number, remove the sim, and type *#06#

    Use the application as demo-ed here:
    http://www.adsar.co.uk/2652.htm

    Type in the last code (+7) from the results for your unlock code. Just type this in when the phone has no sim card in it, and you should see something like "Phone unrestricted".

    I got this - I ordered two (needed two orders, as a message came up when you try to add another).

    The first order went through, but the second one produced the same email response that you got.

    However, as they are only open up 'till 6PM, by the time I called them the following day, I'd had another email to tell me it had been shipped!!

    BTW, no need to phone them on the 0870 number - call them on the one at the bottom of the e-mail (01782 677600) and ask for the Web Support Team.

    An update on my previous response.

    Just had an e-mail from Phones4U to say that the security checks had been completed, and the order is on it's way!

    It would seem to be that they just overide the checks (as per my chat with the web support team last week), due to the volume of orders that would be delayed/cancelled.
