Thanks Steven
I'd better get on to Optus this week about unlocking my iPhone as i'm
away in a few weeks and don't want to be stressing out over it at the
last minute.
I thought International Roaming was active by default on Optus?
Something else I must check up on.
Thanks for the info.

Hi Jane
Optus says its standard turnaround time is 10 days, however they
escalated mine because there wasn't 10 days between when I bought
the phone and when I departed. I bought the iPhone on 11 August, and
I had an unlocked iPhone on 19 August, but this involved 2 or 3
follow up calls after promised deadlines weren't met.
Now all I need is to have international roaming activated on the
Optus SIM card - something Optus seems to be dragging their feet
with. Also takes 10 days apparently, must be an easy number to
remember, but 10 days has been and gone.
Cheers, Steven

Hi Steven
That's good to hear.
How long did it take from requesting the unlock to the phone being
unlocked?
cheers

I can now confirm that my Australian-bought iPhone, unlocked by
Optus, does work in Dubai, both voice and data, with an Etisalat
SIM.
I did come across a shop in Dubai which is selling an unlocked G3
iPhone - but for about AUD $2,400 !
