nokia 1101 unable to unlock

unable to unlock my Nokia 1101 - IMEI 358 803 006 459 742

have tried numerous unlock codes to no avail

it's on the Virgin network

any suggestions?

every code entered comes up with the error message 'not allowed'

i've entered more than 5 codes does this mean that it needs to be unlocked by cable?

    if it comes up code error, you will need to take it to a shop/market stall

    Only take to an unlocking shop if it says cannot undo resrtiction, if you post the phones IMEI and network it is locked to then you can put the correct code in and see what it says.
