Did u buy ur T68 with O2, cos chances are it'll be locked and there aren't too many places that will unlock your phone.
Maybe if you ring O2 maybe they can do it. |

O2 & Vodafone dont lock handsets.
in the UK only T-Mobile & Orange lock handsets. |

Vodafone is by far the best network although they may not always be the best terrifs there coverage is superb - i have been with all networks and vodafone is the only one that can get coverage in near impossible areas like underground etc or miles from a mast ! anyway if ur going for cheapness i took a contract out with vodafone and got my t68 however it meant that i was running up phone bills so i bought a virgin pay as u go sim card for a tenner and got 5 pound free calling credit and the signal aint to bad. whereas o2,orange and vodafone were chargin £25 for pay as u go and there call charges were higher.
but if ur not cheap like me go for vodafone |

in Holland O2 does lock handsets! The XDA that was released here two weeks ago has a lock, and that's limiting it's sales figures. Businessmen are usually not happy with the Dutch O2 network coverage. They also have some locked Siemens S45 and ME45 handsets on the market here.

i was once on vodafone many years ago...they are probably the best for network coverage but do they still charge for voicemail retrieval???
when it comes down to it i use my phone alot...much more than my landline so i'm better off using the same network as most of the people i call.
choose a network based on what most of your friends/people in your locale use, meaning the ones your going to be calling, same network to same network calls are generally cheaper than cross network calls so if you know your going to use your phone alot then check what all the people your going to call use and that may help you make the decision. |

Get an unlocked handset T68 - either 02 or vodafone from UK... price is now free - so paying 12.99 a month = handset price of about £150
then get an orange sim on VIRGIN price match tariff - you get all orange good points - like coverage and customer service and you pay VIRGIN prices!! much cheaper and better.
Also you can have line 2 - 50 off peak minutes for 30p a day - so I pay about £9 a month and whatever calls I use in the day.
Try it - BARGAIN and good quality |
