Presuming it's P&G you need to fill in the form in the link in my signature just below. You need to use the phone in the UK and make a couple of calls, leaving £15.00 credit on the phone to pay for the unlock.

First off cant see a link in your signature. Correct me if I am wrong but if i put my own O2 pay and go sim in the phone, set it up with iphone account, make some calls on it, I can then unlock it for £15.00?

Yes it will but if you just want to unlock it, turn off mobile/cellular data otherwise it will eat the credit. Although if you get a text and web sim and top up £20 you will 500Mb data , make a few calls then fill in the form. you will then have enough credit for the unlock.
