Yes I failed to mention that he did apparently get it unlocked by a shop in the high street, which rings alarm bells! All we want to do is get it back to factory settings
Whats the modem firmware ?
Settings/about/modem firmware.
If its 06.15.00 it has the ipad baseband and you will need custom firmware to get it back to factory settings.

If it was unlocked unofficially, restoring/updating/reinstalling iOS will remove the unlock. Sounds like you've locked it again. What network was it on originally? Have you tried one of their SIMs instead?
