Most mobile phone companies will lock their phones to
their network, stopping you using it on any other network.
Basically, they want to retain your business. Remote
unlocking is a way of releasing the Network lock from the
comfort off your own home. Remote unlocking can be done by
either ordering an unlock code which is calculated from your
unique IMEI number or by downloading unlocking software to
unlock your handset directly. The method to unlock your phone
is dependant on the Make and Model of your handset.
