You have to wait to get an email from o2 saying that the unlock has been complete.

Then put the T-Mobile SIM in, connect the phone to iTunes and the rest should be sorted.

When you connect to iTunes the first time you should get a popup (on iTunes) saying it's been unlocked (download any carrier settings if it asks). At least that's what mine when I did it several months ago.
