Tied to a network you want to leave? Fonetech York offers straightforward network unlocking from our counter in the Coney Street. We unlock iPhone, Samsung, Google Pixel, Huawei, Nokia and many more so they accept any SIM, whether you’re moving to a cheaper deal, adding a work SIM or travelling abroad.
You’ll get a clear price before we start and friendly help from a team that unlocks phones every week.
Tell us the make and model, which network it's tied to and the IMEI. Typing *#06# into the dialler shows that number.
You agree the price first. We then request the unlock using the method that suits your handset and its network.
As soon as it's done, you'll get a text or email saying so, plus a short guide to putting your new SIM in.
Contract or pay-as-you-go, we unlock phones from the main UK networks, including EE, Vodafone, O2, Three and giffgaff. UK networks haven’t sold locked phones since December 2021, but older handsets and phones bought overseas can still be tied to one provider.
Unlocked phones usually fetch more when you sell or trade them in, and you can use a cheap local SIM abroad instead of paying roaming charges.
We unlock iPhones, iPads and Android devices by IMEI, but only phones that are legitimately owned and not reported lost or stolen. Still seeing “No SIM” afterwards? That may be a hardware fault, so see our signal repair page.
