Get an O2 payg sim and use it in phone for a few days.

You can then unlock it for free Guide: Unlocking an O2 phone to use a different SIM card 

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

You will need to take it to a local phone shop (not a network) and they maybe able to unlock it.

- Xperia 1V - o2 and Spusu
