When it comes to finding out how to unlock your phone, there’s usually very little info out there. That’s where we, with a little help from 48, come in.

Why is getting info on unlocking your phone so hard? Because it’s a pretty boring topic, until you actually want to move mobile operator and for anyone who’s done it, it can be a head wreck of contracts, codes and what you can and can’t do.

But with so much choice out there, at some stage you’re going to want to jump ship and join someone else when your contract finishes, or you’ll get a hand-me-down phone from your mate locked to another network and this is usually when the hard work starts.

This is where 48’s new unlock guide cuts out the crap and gives you simple, impartial advice on how to get your phone unlocked.

There’s loads of info on how to contact your operator to do this, as well as a list of different online unlocking sites, rated and reviewed by people who’ve used them.

If you need to know more about unlocking there’s a pretty in-depth FAQ list, covering topics like, is it legal, is my warranty covered and how much does it cost? These are all the sorts of things you need to know but don’t, because you have a life.
