Phone Unlocking BARRED FONE!

[FATBOY]

is it possible to unbar a fone once it has been nicked or lost???? as on a fone contract srvice the cost to replace a nokia fone is £3 for a new one and u can leave the contract at anytime! so i was thinkin of losing one accidently (if ya get what i mean) then gettin a new one for £3 from the company then semding it back and cancelling! but if i ring up and say its lost or stolen then they will bar the fone wont they! so is there a way of unbarring it??????

I would imagine that they will bar the IMEI number so you cant use it on any other network. I am currently investigating changing the IMEI code so as soon as I find out I will let you know..

at present a barred phone can be used on other networks once unlocked but the networks are getting together and sharing lists of blacklisted phones to make them not work in the future,
