    Hi,

    I have a free handset from Vodafone, a Vodafone Smartphone, and I want to unlock it from the network.

    Is there any way I can unlock it online?

    You can do it via the vodafone website. Login and follow the path to unlocking.

    I unlocked mine yesterday through the website.

    Once the handset is unlocked, it's unlocked.

    Elaboration:

    Phone is just out of the box and was free. My sister is back from Australia for 2 weeks next week and I want her to be able to use it with a spare sim I have.

    Vodafone want €120 to unlock it. I don't want to spend more than €20 unlocking it because it will go straight back in a drawer soon enough.

    Try www.fastgsm.com. Usually costs about $20. all done via email and in 30 to 40 mins. With some smarefones you can do it via usb cable for about half the price.

    Cheapest option might be to get a new vodafone sim...
