Vodafone Unlocking iPhone 4?

rabbitinlights · 2010-08-18 13:21:56

If you pick up an iPhone 4 from Vodafone can you apply for a factory unlock from them, or do you have to spend a certain amount after the upgrade?

From this thread it looks like they'll unlock you after 6 months, provided that you've spent at least €127 with them.
There might be different criteria (e.g. a higher spend) for the iP4

Contract upgrade = no unlock until 18 month contract is finished
PAYG upgrade = unlock after spending 127 E

If you've spent €127 in the last six months they'll have it unlocked.
I had my 32gb iPhone 4 unlocked a few days after I bought it!!
