hiya justin
when i bought my phone with talks on it i had to get it unlocked. there are
many stores around the UK where this can be done. I you go to a site such
as
www.yell.com
you should be able to do a search for a shop which will unlock the phone.
all that happens is that they type in a certain code and hey presto the
phone becomes sim free. this should not have any adverse effects on talks,
mine was fine afterwards it just means i can use any sim card in my phone.
