Mobile phone unlocking in Calgary
 
Hi,
i have tried to get my mobile phone unlocked over the internet to no avail. It now needs to be done by a clip? Does anyone know where I could get this done in Calgary?

Its a Nokia 6061 on Fido

Thanks
TMB

Hubby got his unlocked - took some hunting down to find someone who could do his model. Will update you later where he did this in the end. It is possible - eventually !!! :)

Apols for the delay - head like a seive !

Hubby ended up getting his phone (new Sony Erikson model) unlocked in Edmonton while we up there for a weekend.

There is a place in the North East of Calgary at Village Square - 52nd Street and 23rd Ave - ish. Sorry - can't recall it's name right now but as you pull up and park at the front you can see the shop logo slightly to the left of all the buildings. They were unable to unlock hubby's pretty new model - but it's worth asking if they can help you. :)

I agree Iain - I took your advice and have my cheapy Virgin PAYG - serves me fine thank you. And my $100 pre-pay will last forever - OK, well not quite, but it's going well ...

Hubby loves his all-singing, all-dancing "I can take photos, watch videos, load it with a million silly ringtones" phone - who am I to deny him his favourite toy? No complaints from him with Rogers yet, but I'm sure it will come ;)
