Hi guys,
I have just got the nokia e61 on contract from 3. Only wanted it because of the sat nav. I have given the sim cardto my sis in law and she will pay me monthly. I tried to put my Vdafone sim but it does not like it. I now see it cant be unlocked. But are their any other networks that whos sim cards will work in it? I know this sometimes with Vodafone - 02.
Any help would be appreciated.
Glenn

    most o2 contract phones are unlocked, but since you have a bb5 series handset they can only be unlocked by three in the 11th month of the contract. only 3 sim cards will work in the handset

    it may be possible to unlock this but you would be looking at £50 so may not be worth while to you
