NOKIA 95 unlock codes

Apologies if this issue is posted elsewhere but does anyone know how to unlock the NOKIA 95? Have been to a phone store and they have asked for £45 for this. Obviously I am not going to pay this!

Understand the software for this may be currently unavailable - have 2 brand new N95's on Orange and want to unlock them......can anyone help.

Have not rung Orange to request it yet - if I do i would imagine it would cost money as well as time.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

    Orange usually charges 20 pounds per phone u want to unlock.. that shud be the cost did u ask orange directly? cuz it shud be 40 pounds and not 45 for unlocking 2 phones from them.. they shud be back to u within 10 days of u asking them for a code. and the worst news which u probably want to hear is that none of nokia's n series phones can be unlocked unless asked for from the manufacturer i.e. nokia itself.. my 2 1/2 yr old nokia 6680 locked to vodafone has still not been unlocked as i didnt want pay vodafone 20 pounds for such a pathetic phone which i didnt bother to use and plus ive asked every shop in london, cardiff plus my country ( where it is pretty damn easy to get unlocking codes for a fraction of an amt u get it here) and they have come back to me with the same answer for 2 whole years which is SORRY WE CANNOT UNLOCK nokia n series/bb5 phones. SO it is worth it if u want them unlocked to pay orange cuz trust me ive gone thru the hassle

    To get an unlock code from Orange u need to register ur sim and ur phone(by giving them IMEI)after registering ur details(u need 2 sims for 2 phones) with them u need to topup ur registered sim for £20.call them again for PHONE UNLOCK CODE(explain them clearly)they will send u unlock code by email and by post.
    They normally take about 7 days to send u an UNLOCK CODE.
    The best idea to save money is buy £20 topup for around £15 from ebay.so u will save £10 in topups.:T :T :T :T
