At the same time, a colleague was wanting 3 to unlock his N95, so that when on holiday out in nigeria, he could use a local SIM card, rather than roam at stupendous rates. He called them several times, and was quoted something stupid like £150 - basically buying himself out of his contract. Stated several times that "I don't want to leave 3, I just want the phone unlocked so that I can use a local SIM whilst on holiday". They just didn't get it.”
I partially agree with you on the 3 customer service thing,indian call centres do not cut the mustard i am afraid some of the time.
On your other point about your freind not wanting to end his contract but have his phone unlocked whilst still apparently in contract to make cheap calls in nigeria,as far as i am aware NO mobile phone company will unlock your phone in contract,if they did everyone would want to do it and make cheap calls!
