Hi all,

I purchased a pay-as-you-go Vodafone Nokia 3310 when I arrived here in the
UK last October.  I'm soon to be moving back to Australia and wondered if I
would be able to use this phone with an Australian mobile provider.  Would
it be locked for use with Vodafone in Australia, unusable at all, or could I
use it with any provider?

Any advice appreciated
Cheers
Liam.

Yes, UK PAYT phones are usually SPlocked
i.e. a UK Voda locked phone won't work with a Voda Aus Sim
(or any other network)
But 3310 are easy to unlock to be able to take any Sim.

Dealers like DVDs2000 or Nick at
http://www.mobile-unlocking.org.uk  can do it.

Or you can DIY, check out:
