6630 Unlocking?

4 replies · 4,056 views · Started 18 May 2005

I was going to get a 6630 on 3 untill I found out that they wanted �115 to send me an unlock code!! (it's �15 AFTER the 12mths). I know that there's no code generator out at the moment but is there any other way or place you can take it to to get unlocked?

Do other providers charge so much for unlocking codes in the first 12 months of a contract? I could try for O2 handset, which is the sim I'm already on with my 6600 but I doubt I can get it for �127 all in.

If your locked into a Contract then they are going to recover their subsidy wouldent this be above what Oftel consider a "Reasonable" admin charge? Might be worth dropping them a an Email

I haven't got one yet as the price of unlocking is stupid. I'll wait till the local guy who unlocks them can sort it out, then I'll get one.

i unlokced my 7650 online bought a code for �10, cant you do that, can it be unlocked by entering a code like the 7650?

eventualy yes, but at the moment there are no generators. I did all three of my 6600's this way (pixel problems).
