    Only your local unlocking shop or stall at a car boot will be able to unlock them for around £5 per phone.

    No free code again for that model but you can buy an unlocking clip for it for around £7 which when you unlock your phone can sell again for the price you paid. You may be able to get it cheaper if you P.M james-73

    If that doesnt work then you will have to have it unlocked by cable and hardware from your local unlocking shop or car boot for around £5
