I think Sanchez means that if it needs to be unlocked, it must be Stolen or something, as when you buy one, it is automatically unlocked by the store...
Good Luck with that

Only iPhones bought direct from the Apple Store are unlocked to any network from new.

You're correct that in Birkenhead Market they are charging £100 to unlock.

We charge £40 to Wiki members.

This is a proper unlock not a jail break.

I thought you were just as staggered by the price as I was when a customer told me how much they'd been quoted in town.

If that was a guess you need your own "Psychic Sanchez" RoadShow

Depending on the network you can unlock for £15.

Orange and o2 will unlock them for a £15 fee. I have used the o2 service several times.

Out of the six posts you have made on here three of them are to "recommend" Starlight, despite you then quoting their prices which are higher than elsewhere. think

This is true if you have a sim with them, I made a post about this last year explaining how to do it for all networks including contact numbers, it was hijacked a bit by someone jumping on to promote jail-breaking them, but the basics are all there on the first page..
