Mobile phone unlock help

I've got a Samsung Galaxy S on a T-Mobile contract and want it unlocked for use with other sim cards. Any ideas how to do it? Rather not have to pay, but if it comes to it, I will.

I phoned Tesco Mobile to get my N8 unlocked, theycan send you a code for about £20. Not sure how much T-Mobile would charge. You could always take it to your local market.

its normally only about a tenner at most market stalls

Depending on how techie you are...

You can also root your android device and do it other ways.

T-Mobile charge a flat fee of £15.32 for unlocking phones. For Pay-As-You-Go customers the service is available after 3 months. For Contract customers it is available after one month.

The phone number to request a "network subsidy code" is 0845 412 5000 .

T-Mobile states that it will be sent by post up to 28 days later though by some accounts it doesn't usually take that long.

Cheers chaps. I'm not that good with tech stuff and am baffled by terms like app and skype.

I think I'll go with calling T-mobile.

Many thanks.
