Unlocking Second Hand iPhone 4

    Hi.

    So I switched from Vodafone Ready To Go to Three a little over two years ago, taking advantage of a Three deal to get a cheaper iPhone.
    Basically, the original iPhone I got from Three when I switched broke so I bought a second hand iPhone from another phone shop. This phone is also locked to the Three network.

    I will be travelling abroad a couple of times over the next few months, so I want to get the phone unlocked (can buy local SIM etc and avoid roaming charges which have cost me a fortune over the last two years)!

    What are my options for getting the phone unlocked?
    Can I go through Three or does the fact that I bought the handset from a 3rd party mean that i cannot go this route?
    And even if I do - will they unlock it free of charge?

    If it makes any difference - I signed up for an initial 18 month contract and then extended it when the 18 months was up (not sure if I took out a further 12 months or 18 months at the time).

    Any advise would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
