Siemens A60 - locked?

I have a Siemens A60 I'd like to sell, but I don't know if it's locked or not. The SIM card that was in it was Virgin and was rejected - I imagine the number is now dead.

Can I find out if it's locked without buying another SIM card? I suspect ringing Virgin Media might lead to a long, long wait on the phone...

Ah a penny drops. Can't do the F&F thing, but I think I have an adapter so I could try my own SIM in it. Otherwise I'll get a cheap one without a contract from GiffGaff.

Found the adapter, put my GiffGaff card in the Siemens and it picked it up & displayed 'GiffGaff' so home & dry - it's not locked.
