It's possible to get your phone unlocked by contacted Vodafone Customer
Services. You'll just need to provide the following information:
- Make and model of handset
- IMEI number (you can find this by entering * # 0 6 # and pressing
send)
- Address including post code
Vodafone then contact the manufacturer to obtain the NUC code. If the
handset is under twelve months old then there would be a charge of
£19.99 to unlock the handset which is either debited from the account
(if contract) or needs to be applied onto the handset as calling credit
(if pay as you talk). If your handset is over twelve months old then
you can get an NUC code free of charge.
You can contact Customer Services by either calling 191, or going to
www.vodafone.co.uk, selecting 'contact us' then 'email'.
