any mobile phone experts?

alaric:
Do you still have the box and packaging that came with the phone? In most cases there is a piece of paper or label with the IMEI number and the handset PINs on.

Did the SIM come with the phone or have you bought the phone and put an old SIM in it? In either case read the message on the screen carefully and make sure you enter the number that it asks for - Usually the SIM card PIN or the Phones PIN1 or PIN2.

Good luck!

Alaric.

well turns out according to the guy in the shop that the only way the phone lock can be enabled is by the user :-k daughter denies all knowledge :roll: and the sim is blocked due to my frequent attempts to unlock it :doh: so now she owes me a tenner for getting the shop to unlock it and we binned the sim and put a new one in

paul_humphreys:
I have only just read this, but I think this works,

When Sim Card Removed - Switch on Phone

Next type *2767*2878#

This should reset your codes to 000000000

carbore:
The code you need could well be PIN1 or PIN2 as stated.

The thing I found when I secured my phone is that the defaults are set by operator i.e the Mobile Company Orange etc
  not the manufacturer

So google for the PIN1 and the operator (and poss mobile make/model) and you shouldget that number it was a 6 didgit one on my nokia from memory.
