You can follow this here https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Other-Products-and-Services/Unlocking-an-O2-phone-to-use-a-different-SIM-card/ba-p/1014131
but only when there is sufficient supply of phones to protect genuine customers (o2's words).

It's because they like to keep all iPhone customers with O2....:smileysad:

SorryvMI5 but this is not true : If you have a monthly contract it is free to get your phone unlocked......
Correct is :
. If you've got an iPhone 7 Plus, you won't be able to get it unlocked unless you've paid off your Device Plan in full.

But why ???

It's the rules that o2 have set.
The process I gave you is correct but not until o2 allow the 7+ to be done.
Not our decision and we can't help any further with it other than to tell you to pay up or wait.

Ps. If you read the link I gave you it does state that new iPhones are an exception - so it is true

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I got my iPhone 7 Plus unlocked 7days after purchase and was unlocked using BT Sim Card, as the screenshot shows..

Handset was purchased from o2 Shop Crystal Peaks.

I did this all via the App.

TBH your screenshot proves nothing more than that it's an iPhone with a bt sim in it.

Good to see you read what I said @MI5...

iPhone 7 pluses can be unlocked by o2, as mine is, suppose it depends how good a customer you are to o2!!

It depends if the person putting it through made a mistake or if the device is fully paid off.
O2's policy, as you are fully aware, is to not yet generally allow the unlocking of the 7+
