im in a hole

Steoob

hey... ok so im on vodafone.. ive lost my origianl literature from when i bought it... so the other day i tried to change the pin code (i never had it activiated before so i couldn't remember it) and after getting it wrong three times the sim got blocked... so i needed my PUK to unblock it but i dont have it so i cant put it in...

so i know that you can get it on my vodafone at the vodafone.ie site.. but because its an old phone the credits expired and for some STUPID reason you cant sign into my vodafone without having activated credit... so the option would be to get credit but i cant put it into the phone coz its blocked!!! what the hell do i do... its a real loophole
help!

thanks

Did you register it when you initally got it?

Can you use an ATM to top up? Do you have an online bank account? Only the two things I can think of.

Call the vodafone help line. It is an automated service but they will give you your PUK code. I have done it before.

Rabies

Dunno. Presume you can get it on the vodafone website.
If i remember correctly it took a few goes on the help line to find the right options but I was able to get my PUK code.

Rabies

Nope. I called from a landline.

1850 20 87 87 i think..

You don't need to call from the phone, but you may need it by your side (Maybe need to get IMEI number from under the battery/cover?)
