No you need an unlatching request.
Pop your o2 sim back in and follow the advice on this thread.

However, if your daughter is also on O2 you don't need to do anything except resetting the phone (if iPhone, remove old iTunes account)

Or you can unlock your phone via My O2

Not if the sim is no longer in it as it will request an unlock for the new phone.
