    cant be done by free code
    you can get code for about £10ish otherwise you will need to get it unlocked by hardware at a shop/market stall

    Any way to get a code for my PAYG SE K510i locked on Vodafone. Rumour has it that remote unlocking with codes can only happen on the Vodafone version of this phone - the others need the software and a special cable.

    Thanks in advance

    nobody could ever do these by imei except virgin (free if youve spent £30 on credit)
