It's good to see more and more customers starting to come online to praise instead of complaint.

@durhamdad

Sometimes the system actually does work. Glad the OP got it sorted out quickly and with no problems.

It's only natural that people come to these forums to complain. That's what they're essentially there for. This forum would be a pretty boring place if all people were doing were coming online to say that they were happy.

Last time I asked O2 for an unlock code, I received it within 48 hours. Good to hear the service is being maintained.

If it's a P&G phone it has to have been on the network for 12 months before O2 will unlock it unless it's an iphone.

You need to put your new sim in your phone from another network and your phone should then prompt you for the unlock code.

Edited to add. This is for Android phones only

Any other major network sim card will do (EE, Orange, T Mobile, Vodafone or Three).
Any of them will post free PAYG sim cards off their website out to you.
