O2 are one of the few service providers that rarely lock their monthly
contract handsets, I know from experience and from asking them. Just try a
different SIM and see what happens.
If they only get their monthly fee for the total contract period then most,
if not all, of the price they paid for the handet has probably been
recouped.
