Hi guys

 

I have asked for my phone to be unlocked and it has been put through, how will I know when my phone is unlocked?

 

I am upgrading and selling my old phone.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Kriss 🙂

By using a non-EE SIM in it to which you will be giving the unlock code you get from EE.

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.

To phone EE CS: Dial Freephone +44 800 079 8586 - Option 1 for Mobile Phone & Mobile Broadband or Option 2 for Home Broadband & Home Phone

ISPs: 1999: Freeserve 48K Dial-Up > 2005: Wanadoo 1 Meg BB > 2007: Orange 2 Meg BB > 2008: Orange 8 Meg LLU > 2010: Orange 16 Meg LLU > 2011: Orange 20 Meg WBC > 2014: EE 20 Meg WBC > 2020: EE 40 Meg FTTC > 2022:EE 80 Meg FTTC SoGEA > 2025 EE 150 Meg FTTP

EE will not Unlock it for you, you have to do this yourself.

 

As @XRaySpeX says EE will provide you with an Unlock Code then just follow the Instructions, you will need another Network SIM (not EE) in order to complete the process.
