You just need to use the online unlocking form. http://service.o2.co.uk/IQ/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,Kb=Companion,question=ref(User):str(Mobile),C...

Indeed... Follow the correct process and it will be done, usually within a day for iPhones or 72 hours for all others.....

That is assuming the phone is eligible for unlocking.....?

Why would you buy a phone that is locked to a UK network and then use it abroad?

You could easily have bought a sim free phone elsewhere.

You need to remember this is a customer to customer forum. Any issues you have, you need to contact o2.
Do not use online chat!
Like said above, fill in the unlock form and if you're still having problems, contact O2 via phone.
Good luck

As MI5 has touched upon.

You need to eligible to unlock.

"If you're a Pay & Go customer, your O2 mobile can be unlocked 12 months after purchase for a one-off £15 fee which we'll deduct from your airtime balance. This policy may vary according to the handset you have purchased."

I'm out of contract at the Nokia lumia 800 I now have a new one. Nokias wanted to unlock it. O2 chat service assured me that there is no problem and will send me by mail with the code and instructions step by step. They told me week after week, with no problem. I did not receive an email. Time has passed seven days, now again. How much can wait? What promised that will help?

As you have been told above, fill out the unlocking form. This goes immediately to the correct department and it will be done within 72 hours.

That's why the promise that will help? They claimed that there is no problem? What lied? Where can I find the form to unlock?
