When I last dealt with CW two years ago the salesperson claimed they never
sold locked phones, a claim I doubted somewhat at the time. However for
reasons that aren't important I ended up giving the free contract phone
together with the Virgin SIM parted from it's original handset to a relative
and the two worked fine.
However Andrew has mentioned a potential valid issue.

Hi,
If the phone you use is locked to 02, then you won't be able to use the
Virgin sim in it without being unlocked.
