Huawei Ascend G300 unlock

[Guest dt_matthews]

just received and successfully applied my unlock from specialize - great service :)

[Guest Ubiquitoustastic]

a £1 increase puts you off a new phone, really?

Profiteering!

[Guest irishpancake]

the price bump in the unlock has put me off buying this phone now *sigh*

Unbelievable....you gotta be joking!!

However, I did say....

That offer is a Special Offer....expect it will go up!!!

Nope. got this via email though

Our system was unable to automatically generate an unlock code for your particular mobile. The good news is this doesn’t mean we cant unlock it for you, it just means we need to get some extra information. With this information I will be able to manually calculating a code to unlock your phone

So they asked for the imei number and phone model details again. So now waiting for them to do something

[Guest lazyliam]

Stupid question but I'm ordering of Ebay 8.48 specialise incorrect spelling I know but what model number are you all inputting g300 are what any help please

[Guest anglo]

Oops, wrong post quoted!!!

Liam, I believe it is the Huawei U8815.

It's also in various thread titles in this phones forum.

Double check to be sure though.

[Guest punjabi]

Thats correct Huawei U8815 (G300).

If in doubt give the chap from Specialze a call he'll confirm it for you. He's very helpful.

[Guest Davidoff59]

its the g300. the u 8815 is the Asian version so the unlock codes may be calculated differently.

[Guest wolsnah]

I just used the information off my box for mine, which just had MODEL: U8815 on it. Worked ok for me, but I guess to be safe, you could always put the whole lot, i.e. Huawei Ascend G300 U8815.

Ordered my unlock on Sunday, came through today from specialize B)

[Guest Simon O]

U8815 is the Huawei model number for the Ascend G300.

I ordered mine to him and I said Huawei Ascend G300 in my order. Everything went fine and in less than 24h I had my handset unlocked :)

Mobile-Code-Unlocker.com tell me that they cannot unlock the G300

[Guest trueno2k]

Mobile-Code-Unlocker.com tell me that they cannot unlock the G300

That's no surprise, when you said they were unable to get an unlock code first time, it's pretty much useless trying a second time... hope you get your refund for their failed services... Shame though, such a cheap offer if they were able to unlock the G300 for that price...

[Guest anglo]

Mobile-Code-Unlocker.com tell me that they cannot unlock the G300

Bummer. :(

At least you tried another potential source on our behalf. :)

I was holding off for your response and ordered an unlock from 'specialize' as soon as I read your post as my son was getting impatient to 'use' his phone instead of just exploring it.

Thanks for trying.

No Problem. As an aside. When I get my phone unlocked I will be looking for a provider that has cheap internet access. Is giffgaff any good?

[Guest Davidoff59]

I have been on giffgaff for approx 8 months. While they had issues, they appear to have sorted them out, mostly network and data issues. I would recommend them. Look at the 10 pound goodybag for data

[Guest punjabi]

T-mobile have good data plans...

I've not used giffgaff, though I was going to 18 months ago when the San Fran phone was launched but went for T-Mobile at the time who introduced a very good Sim only deal with 500 mins, 600 texts, 'unlimited' data (3Gb) and a bolt on (unlimited landline or unlimited texts) for £7.50 a month. I couldn't turn that down and they also renewed the deal for a 2nd year. Hopefully, they'll offer it again come October.

I like the fact that giffgaff don't tie you down to a contract and you can tailor your 'bags' to suit your needs.

Good luck with whatever you choose.

PS. Should have stated that I don't think new customers can get that deal any more.
