Unlocking XDA2s on o2. whats the problem

---

After reading all the doom and gloom on this forum about trying to get an XDS11s unlocked from o2 I thought sod it I'll ring em at o2 and ask politely if its possible. A very nice lady answered my call and I explained that I needed to get unlocked because I travel abroad a lot and needed to put a french or spanish sim in to save call charges. Certainly sir the lady said. It will take anything upto two weeks to get it done maybe, somebody will ring you in 24 hours to say wether it can be done. Lo and behold before the 24 hours was up she had called me back with an unlock code and it was done, all for no charge. So why all the hassle and doom and gloom amongst a lot of owners. why should anybody need to pay 20 quid to a third party to unlock these phones or was I just lucky.

Now I just have to weigh up which phone company after Hutchinson 3 ( which I have on another phone) can offer the cheapest call deal to put my new XDA 11s on. Anybody any thoughts ?

Well not all xdaIIs will come from O2, some will be lock on a different provider and not all provider will be unlocking their phones once requested.

We get our XDA2s from O2 when they arive i call the retail help desk and within 2 hrs i get a unlocking code for them all.

I have never had any problems get a xda2s unlocked at all
