Is it an iPhone?</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Where did you <STRONG>yourself</STRONG> get this device itself <STRONG>originally</STRONG>? <STRONG>Did you buy it yourself new <U>direct from EE</U></STRONG> or from a 3rd-party reseller or is it 2nd-hand? The unlocking process &amp; costs are different. How old is it? EE won't unlock contract devices less than 6 months old.</P> Mon, 08 Nov 2021 09:34:53 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Archived-Posts/Different-SIM/m-p/1097595#M259952 XRaySpeX 2021-11-08T09:34:53Z
