I have been waiting nearly a month for any unlock code that should have been processed within 72 hours. You have been contacted numerous times by telephone and live chat and nothing has happened. I feel simply lied to. I contacted you earlier and was told the lie that the unlock code request had been rejected because the handset had not be used. I informed your representative Uma (chat reference ********) that see was mistaken, but she insisted I was wrong. I have checked the online account and can confirm that a call was made on the 16 Apr 16 at 22:59:13 to ********. I can email you a copy of the O2 phone bill if you can provide me with an email address and will have the decency to actually respond given I have already been provided with two email addresses by your colleagues, neither of which has had the decency to reply. I would advise you that I have emailed Ronan Dunne concerning this matter & will shortly be contacted the Ombudsman, OFCOM and making a claim for damages through the small claims court. I am disgusted by your service.

If not, you must use the phone on O2 until it registers.
Have you also tried a non O2 sim in the phone to see if it is unlocked already?
