Hi guys, theis forum has been quite useful in researching the lumia 920, so i thought id join and give some info....
i sold my s3 this week and bought the lumia 920 red from phones4u knowing full well it would be locked to EE. although the staff in the shop told me it was unlocked to any network, like all of their sim free phones. however when i opened it as i suspected it was locked, ad i rang them up, and all they said was it must be a mistake with the handset, bring it back in and test out my sim in another 920, or exchange or refund it. i didnt go back in, i know it would be a waste of time, besides im too fond of my new 920 to get a refund, so fully prepared to pay for the unlock on. my guess is phones4u are just poorly educating their own staff on their product.
anyway after much lookking around the web, i found three websites that offer the 920 uk unlock for ee, these are:
http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/lumia/index.htm £30 upto 10 days
http://www.myphoneunlockcode.com/nokia/unlock_nokia-lumia_920 £40 upto 10 days
http://www.unlockfrog.com/nokia2013.asp £54 upto 14 days
so being cheapest and the guarantee of my money back if it doesnt work, ive paid fonefunshop for an unlock 2 days ago and awaiting the code.
will let you know the result when it comes
