Unlocking old iPhone

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm looking to sell my iPhone 5S, and obviously they sell higher when they're unlocked and I noticed O2 offer a service to unlock it via an online form. I saw this link and it states "Make sure you enter the mobile number that you bought the phone with, to avoid being charged."

When I got my phone it came with a random number and I had my old number transferred accross (and when I upgraded to my iPhone 6, that number was again transferred across).

So, my question is, what number do I put in the mobile number field? If the answer is the original number it came with, how do I find that out? The SIM in the 5S is now inactive since I upgraded and switched the number to my iPhone 6.

Thanks in advance!

Put in the O2 mobile number which you used the iphone with.

So do I put in the number that I transferred over to it? (that is now on the iPhone 6)?

Yes the same one. It will be matched to the IMEI of the the iphone 5s
