Wrong lets get to the point huh.
ok
First of all you will need to get you IMEI number to get this simply press *#06#
the network operator only needs the first 15 numbers
This has been done on my k850i locked to Vodafone.
If you are on Vodafone please follow net bit of information.
Call 191 from you hand set and select option 2 then option 1 this will put you through to customer services.
When you speak to them say you are going on holiday sometime in the next few months for the next 2 to 3 weeks and the contrary you are going to is not covered in there Vodafone passport or international call saver and you are going to buy a simcard when you get there as this will cost next to nothing and will be a lot cheaper to make and receive calls over there they don't know you are really not going there and you know this your self.
If they ask you where you are going say something like China, Canada, Egypt or some other place that's not listed in there Vodafone passport and say you are not interested in paying the rest of the world rates or call save rates

NUC number will be provided in email you get should be 16 numbers long
your code once emailed to you will be 16 numbers long.
1. Remove the Vodafone SIM from the handset. Replace the battery and switch on.
2. Move the jog dial left then press the * key twice and then move the jog dial left
<**< will need to do this quick and you will see the following
3. Network appears on screen 4.
Then select YES.
5. NCK will appear – key in NUC and Yes, phone should then be unlocked.
I asked them and said is this going to cost me anything they said it use to be £25 but its now done for free.
So looks like you can get phone unlocked for free and not haveing to use any sort of software or patch to get this done.
I am not sure if this is working on any other networks for free
Vodafone = Free Free Free Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Orange = Not known as not tested
T-Mobile = Not known as not tested
O2 = Not known as not tested
Virgin = Not known as not tested
If you are saying anything other than going over seas or going on holiday IE you want to use your phone on some other network then they have every right to say no but if saying the above then you will get phone unlocked for free.
Please note i am unsure how long this will be for free as am sure it wont last so use the info above asap.
Please let me know if this worked for you and don't for get to leave some feedback :p ;)
ps if you are lucky then your network operator should send you an email with detailed information on what do with with what handset
