Apple Refurb iPhones

Sent my phone back to Apple as a button had died. Anyone know if I will get a refurb or my phone back and if its a refurb will it be network locked as my original was?

Most likely, it'll be a refurb. I did this recently, although I did avail of the "express" option (where they send you out the replacement first!) so it's obviously a refurb in my case!

Mine is also unlocked... my old one was locked to VF.

Usually a refurb, and if locked before sending, the replacement is normally locked as well.
