information iconThe Unlock returned code error?

In such cases, we may be able to offer an alternative unlocking solution. Please email us with all the information that you have about your handset.

The other reason for "Code Error" could be that the phone has the latest security locking on it and is not possible to be unlocked through the use of Unlock codes at this moment in time.
