Nokia 6600 Problems!

    Hey all,

    I bought a 6600 from the FS Mobiles section of the site but I've got a wee problem. I can send/receive texts and receive calls but I can't make any, all I get is a "Call Not Allowed" message. I've tried changing all the settings I can but with no joy and the default lock code doesn't work in the phone (apparently it was formatted before being sold so everything should be defaults).

    I'm with Vodafone and popped into them earlier they did some funky checks on the phone Serial number and my Sim card and everything should be working but there's still problems!! I can make calls on a different phone using the same sim and have tried a different sim in the 6600 but get the same problem.

    Any help that could be rendered would be amazingly appreciated!

    Cheers,

    Dunners

    P.S. The phone was originally used on vodafone by the seller so I don't think it's a network locking issue. Cheers.

    yeah, Just saw who you bought ir off....



    Have you tried bringing it to a Vodaphone shop and letting them have a go with it?

    They did their jiggy stuff with the sim and checking the phone serial number and such, said it must be a handset problem and so I needed to give it to the local shop (which I was in at the time) and they'd send it off to the repair shop and all would be dandy. Then the fact that it was infact second hand arose and well you can guess the rest by the fact I posted here...
