I bought a LG phone (KP500) in the UK and need a code to unblock it to use in South Africa.

South Africa - Country code = +27
ZIP codes are a system of postal codes used by the United States Postal Service (USPS) since 1963. The term ZIP, an acronym for Zone Improvement Plan, was chosen to suggest that the mail travels more efficiently, and therefore more quickly (zipping along), when senders use the code in the postal address.
To call South Africa from the U.S., just follow these dialing instructions: First dial 011, the U.S. exit code. Next dial 27, the country code for South Africa. Then dial the 2-digit area code (see sample calling code list below) followed by the 7-digit phone number.
South Africa Telephone Code 27. South Africa telephone code 27 is used to make international calls from South Africa. You may also see 27 referred to as the South Africa country phone code, or South Africa international calling code.

HI you can't use your phone in south africa until you unlock your phone from UK network provider..You can easily unlock your phone using sites like UnBBLock.com here they are providing unlock code for all blackberry mobile models at reliable cost .Else if you want to unlock some other phone model then have a look at sites like MobileUnlockSolutions.com here they are providing unlock code for all mobile models at reliable cost .After unlocking the phone you can freely use it with any GSM sim in Africa....

You can get your Nokia X2-02 unlocked using the unlock code from your network provider (MTN,South Africa) it may or may not be free....To get guidance on how to enter the unlock code you can visit Mobileunlockguide.com and follow their free unlock instructions and remove the network lock easily.

To get the security code/restriction code to unlock thecell phone from the current cell phone provider so you can use it with adifferent phone provider, Please click on this link and follow my instructions:- http://www.fixya.com/support/r4049238-unlock_cell_phone If your phone provider does not help you then this WEB siteit provides security codes for a small price. http://www.mobileunlockstore.com/?gclid=CKDb2_y2558CFSlJagodxBkDHw Try this WEB site also - UnlockFree http://www.unlock-free.com

A request for a PUK code ("Personal Unlocking Key") will appear on your phone if your SIM card PIN code is entered 3 consecutive times incorrectly.

Your SIM card will then become "PUKed" or Blocked. This is a security measure to protect your service.

You need to call the Customer Service department of your cell phone provider and they will give you the PUK code which will unblock your SIM card.

call your service provider and tell them that your phone is locked and u need the unlock code

this will do it
