Unblocking my phone for use in Sweden

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have been an O2 customer all of my 'mobile phone' life, and have just moved to Sweden, taking my Blackberry Handset with me. I can't put a Swedish SIM in it as it is locked to O2.... does anyone know how to unblock it?! I have a pay as you go O2 SIM for when I visit the UK in the future, but I can't use that permenently here as its too expensive and I need a Swedish number for here.

Thank you!!

Hi you will need to fill in this form but you will need to have £15 on the O2 payg SIM card

If the phone was previously on contract use the number on your contract and it will be free to unlock.

It was previously on contract on the same number- so this means I don't have to have the £15 credit on it?
