Hello all, I bought a phone in good faith for £ 150 a 7250 to be exact, for my wife, now the phone is usless, I cant use it on any network, tried unlock code that wont work, three different networks in it, no joy, even the original sim wont work (t-mobile pay and go). I have been told it has been locked out by the phone provider maybe reported stolen. Also I have been told it can be undone. If there is anyone who can help I would apprciate it.
Thanks
Netkid

Who sold you this phone? And where does it come from?
Because if you bought it in an official shop it can't be stolen!

Why dont u check it from the network whether it is stolen or not?? If it indeed is a stolen piece resold, then u should let the authorities know.

Yes, you're right! I dont' understand why they buy stolen phone! I think that these people are quite strange. 
Don't you ever think about that? So imagine you buy a Nokia 6600, you're happy (and i can understand you!!!) 3 days later, a guy steals it. And imagine that afterwards he sells your phone! I think that you won't react the same way!
Apple is right, THINK DIFFERENT! Change your minds guys!

Yeah. I've lost a phone once cos it got stolen, so i know the agony one has to go thru after that.
And BTW(dont get me wrong here), but how are we supposed to know that these are the ones who have bought stolen phones, they could also be the ones who stole them in the first place????????
AGAIN, im not sayin anybody here is a thief, u might have bought the phone in truest of intentions, but then sum1 might just come along who aint as honest as we are.
