Is unlocking illegal?
If it's illegal, why do they tell you to go to phone shops and have them
unlocked?
If it's not illegal, why are all these places in the UK?
Is there any reason not to have the phone unlocked if it's not illegal?
Phones are usually locked if one buys one with a term of service contract
but once the contract is over with you own the phone out right & there is
no reason that the phone needs to remain locked. I've unlocked several
phones after the contract was over with & then sold them on eBay. Sorry I
can't speak about the laws in the UK.
OBTW the Nokia 5165 is NOT a GSM phone so it won't work in Europe. I didn't
know if you were asking about unlocking for the previous reason or not.
Your phone is TDMA/Analog
