I have an old Nokia C2  WAP phone which is great for calls and text but little else.

I have tried to unlock the phone   -  I was sent instructions on how to do that - which I followed to the letter but each time  it failed.

Can anyone help?

Could it be that this phone is hard wired to o2  and cannot be unlocked by the usual actions?

Check help here Guide: Unlocking an O2 phone to use a different SIM card but try a different sim first in case it's not locked?

You should be able to unlock it with the code sent to you Are you putting the other network simcard in to unlock it?

 

There is always the option of a local repair mobile shop.

Hi @Wantok 

Unlock instructions here https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/How-to-Guides/Unlocking-an-O2-phone-to-use-a-different-SIM-card/ba-p/1... 

Have you tried another sim in the phone? You may find its unlocked already?
