Nokia 6630 - Sim Locked

[Whitz]

Whilst visiting home (UK) i bought a Nokia 6630 Simlocked to 3, thinking i could get it unlocked when back in Bangkok.

WRONG

I have tried MBK, Pantip Plaza and Fortune Tower with no luck.

Anyone know of anyone?

If you can't get it done in MBK, I guess there's no other place where you can.

but, if you would like to do it yourself (know cable and everything), check this place out...

Hi

I have done several Nokias but at the Seacon Centre On Nut. Basement near Trues shop.

TO get some phones unlocked you have to call your service provider.

Example for me I had a Nokia 6680 on a vodafone contract and arrived in Thailand in Jan thinking the same that I'd be able to unlock it.

But at that moment in time there was no software available to unlock the 6680.

So I browsed websites and found out I had to call my service provider tell them the IME number and what phone I had and they emailed me a password to to enter into the phone and voila it was unlocked!

You have every right to unlock your phone if your on a contract but some operators will make it a pain in the ass to get the UNLOCK CODE out of them!

Not sure what the deal is on pre pays but I know that its not as easy to unlock a newer phone anymore! When they unlock your phone I beleive all that they do is reload the operating system so a re format but you need to have that software available.

Mind you the website mentioned above and many others offer the unlock codes!!!! But as I'm not sure how new your model is thats about all I can say on the matter.

Hope that helps

I went to the DTAC main office in the WTC, they sent me down to a guy with a 3' counter nr the car park... unlocked in seconds.

Just tell them you want to use their service. (Pre-paid, in my case)

Good luck and keep us posted.
