Mobile phones.
Ive just bought a new Nokia mobile phone, but when I have tried to put my existing sim card in it wont work. It just says the pin number is incorrect and I have only got one more go before it will lock on me :mad:
Anyone got any ideas as to what the problem is? |

Is the phone locked? Is it on a different network from your sim card?
I am with vodafone which is the same network. |

So if I take it to the shop will they be able to sort it out for me?
When I bought my new phone a few months back the bastards registered the sim that was in it, I went away, put my sim in it and it said the same thing. The next day I went back and requested it be changed, when they refused I went ape shit, after about 5 mins of me getting pissed off the manager came out and agreed to sort it out. |

As Tim has suggested, you will need to take it back.
