Hi I recently bought a Sony Xperia XA2 from CeX but it's locked to O2 and every solution on O2 website requires you to have an active PAYG/Pay monthly account which I do not currently have, is there any other option I can go for that's free as don't have the money to take it to a phone shop

@Alyxiate 

The only ways here 

Guide: Unlocking an O2 phone to use a different SIM card 

Get a free O2 PAYG sim and top up £10. Make some calls and register for a MyO2 account, then request the unlock through the MyO2 app.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

If you have a friend that is on o2 then you could ask them to use it for a few days and ask them to request the unlock @Alyxiate ?

Please note, this is not customer services and we cannot access your account. Do not publish personal details (email, phone number, bank account).
