    If you can't jailbreak and and unlock ( see iclarified.com) which will tell you if you can, you will have to do as 3 said. It would be worth ringing them again, and noting what they say.

    Buy a 3 sim online or up the north pay 15 pounds and you will have a factory unlocked iPhone that's the best way to do it and you will be able to update to ios5 in September not worrying about an unlock!
