There are usually places on the high street where you can get them unlocked, however you will have to pay them.

We took it to a place in Queensferry today & they said to us that the Nokia x6 needs a code to unlock etc - dunno if it was just a case of him not wanting to do it, but

New Nokia phones are extremely difficult to unlock compared to other brands.

Really? I didn't know that. I only have a Sony Ericsson phone.

Did you ask them if they knew where to get that code?

^ They said it would be on the box.. and when i looked i couldn't see it, i've looked online and that just confuses me!

Have you tried calling T mobile? They may unlock the phone for you.

This may help. Got it from the T mobile FAQs.

Question
Can I use another network's SIM in my T-Mobile phone?

Answer
You can use another network's SIM in your phone if you have a subsidy PIN. To obtain a subsidy PIN, or if you've entered one incorrectly, please call us on 0845 412 5000.

I tried to get my T-Mobile Nokia E71 unlocked (subsidy PIN), had to pay T-Mobile £15 and they insisted it had to come from Nokia in a letter, not a code they could give me over the phone. Still don't have it, three months later, really not best pleased with T-Mobile over this. Going to tell them to get their act together and trace it with Nokia / send it within two weeks or refund the £15.
