    hello I have some old (and i mean old) Nokia phones (and a couple of sagem ones) which still have some life in them and was thinking one day of putting them up for sale. for years I would have been with Meteor so they would have been locked to the meteor network. so now what happens? - with they be locked to eir mobile now? - in other words to whoever i sell them to will they just pop in their eir mobile SIM and it will work? 
    Thanks.

    Hi Andy From Sligo,

    Thanks for the message.

    If they were purchased originally from meteor they will be compatible with any Eir sim. If you wish to unlock them you will need to contact our support team on 1901. 

    Thanks

    Thomas
