    I have been thinking about buying a PAYG Nokia 1100 possibly on virgin as they are the cheapest. I know how I could get the phone unlocked, what I wanted to know was that the unlock would allow me to use any UK sim in the phone, but would it also be possible use a foreign PAYG sim in the phone when I am abroad.

    @ mrgreen
    you can get it unlocked by posting your imei-model and network here and someone will give you the code (although a few of the 1100s are proving hard to unlock?)
    you can then use it abroad with any sim you like, but remember the phone is dual band so only in those countries (not usa etc)

    drahcir,
    Thanks for the codes for the two Nokia 3120's I asked for.
    Both worked first time. No problems at all.
    Cheers :beer:
