O2 Iphone unlocked to Meteor

    Hey,
    A buddy has an Iphone 4 with O2 but got an upgrade to the 4s so passed the phone on to me. He asked O2 to unlock the phone and got the text message saying it was now unlocked (have an email of the message). When I put in my Meteor sim card it will not allow me to activate as it says the sim is not a valid carrier. Anyone any ideas?
    Cheers!

    Connect it to itunes and set it up as a new phone? That's my best guess :D

    The text from o2 should have read
    o2 SMS wrote:
    Apple have confirmed the iphone....
    To complete the unlock, connect the device to itunes with a carrier SIM not supported in the iphone

    To unlock it you need to plug the phone into itunes and you will be asked to download a new carrier update!

    Remove the pincode from the meteor simcard using a different phone, then insert simcard into iphone and plug into itunes
    Update iTunes to the latest version, try itunes on a different computer.
    o2 will more than likely tell you the request was sent to apple and all they can really do is send it again, you can do that on o2's website or by PM'ing them on boards
