My son has broken his phone & his pal has given him an old Nokia 6300 phone to use. Problem is its on the vodafone network & my son is with meteor. Is there any cheap or better still free way to unlock the phone.
 
Get the pal to contact Vodafone and they should be able to unlock it for you. They will do it free of charge , but they might not give you the code straight away.


If any of you are already on the vodafone network, then just get them to ring up. I dont think it has to be the original owner.

A tip I learned on AAM is to ring Meteor and tell them you want the unlocking code for the phone as you are going to another country for a couple of months and you want to be able to use a local sim card.

Th above will only work, if you contact the originator of the phone lock. Meteor can only unlock phones locked by meteor, vodafone can only unlock phones locked by vodafone. Meteor should not have the unlock code for a vodafone lock. They will have an unlock code for that phone, but it wont work - as it is not the vodafone unlock number.
 

you are correct I meant to say contact vodafone
 
I've used the third option described here without any difficulties, but your mileage may vary. I think it only works with the older dc4-type 'phones (of which the 6300 is one).
