Unblocking a contract Phone.

[Maria]

Is it possible to do this, to revert it to a PAYG anyone ?

If you stick it with the same phone company it should work!

 

Although if it is blocked it means its blacklisted and the IMEI number of the phone needs to be changed, this is only possible if its an oldish phone.

It is to stop phone theft, and now all 4 major mobile companies in the uk are sharing their blacklist info with each other so you cant just ublock the phone to all networks.

 

There is talk of them sharing the info with all the european networks too, which will stop stolen phones being shipped oput to europe for sale.

 

If it is just unlocking you want you canb get it done on a market stall or somewhere like that, you can also download programmes from the net so you can do it at home ( you dont need a cable). If it is unblocking you are after i think you are pretty much fucked hun!

 

Good luck!

Thanks Bushy me lav !

 

Think I might just fuck the contract all together - seems to be nothing but WANKERS who this phone is in association with !

 

Canceling it now and going on PAYG for now, which at the moment will turn out better for me so I can pay off my £2k holiday !

 

Thanks again for your advice.
