Using a different SIM abroad

Hi. I am in Nepal and have purchased a SIM card to use while I'm here. When I put the SIM in the phone said it was locked and a pin was needed. Can i have this pin please?

If you bought the Device from an Network Operator, ie, EE you will need to apply for the Unlock Code from EE Directly, and not through this Community Help Forum, there is also a one off fixed Fee for the Code, I believe it is around £8.

How old is the Phone as most Phone Devices are no Sold or Supplied on Contract Sim Free and Unlocked.

You can just apply for unlocking by using the Unlocking your device form and giving its IMEI no., which you can obtain be dialling *#06# into its keypad. Unlocking is free.
