Default HTC Wildfire Unlock request info

Hi guys i am very new on this subject and i just need some info about unlocking my wildfire.
I read quite a few post but i didn't found something step by step and finally to work.
So basically i just need to unlock my phone from the network(vodafone)so i can use it in other networks.
So what is the best solution:
1.Gold card
2.Unrevoked
3.ROM FLASHING GUIDE FOR NOOBs(if it works).
Thanks and sorry for opening a new thread even if so much information can be found on this site.
A quick walkthrough would be much apreciated for a solution.

Well I have done all the steps you pointed out and I'm still locked to t-mobile so I guess gold card, root and flash is not enough to unlock it but only to debrand your phone.

You cannot unlock a phone with the code from the provider or unlocker

I tried htcsimunlock.com but they said they couldn't unlock it for 20$ what I have paid already,so I should pay them another 20$ and then they maybe can unlock it...I sayd no, they refunded my money. So it wasn't such a good experience for me.

Well as far as i know a lot of ppl are facing problems getting codes from htccodes.com and htcsimunlock.com just for everyone's info..

SIM UNLOCK IS NOT DEBRANDING, ROOTING, GOLDCARD.. Its an entirely different thing so do not confuse these things..and one should use Sim Unlocker / Code generator for the same which is not yet available for wildfire ..

I got one from mobileunlocked.co.uk it wasn't cheap at £23.50 but I couldn't find anyone else who could do it. 3 or 4 dites said they could but I ended up getting refunded

Mine was locked to 3 and I needed Vodafone
So far:- P900 => C500 => Wizard => Prophet => Artemis => MDAC4 => Touch Pro 2 => Wildfire => Defy => Razr => SGS3

If your phone is new, ie manufactured after the month of May, it will cost you more and many sites do not have access to this latest database.
