    PS: The model listed on the Woolworths Website is the old model, and not the 2018 model

    Can anyone help - how to get the unlock code for this phone? Nothing available in ebay.

    • bonky on 08/03/2019 - 23:37

      Toongabbie sounds like a friendly town.

      If you buy from Vodafone, 3 Mobile or Crazy John’s you'll be charged for the unlock according their system of charging.

      But here is the funny thing - if you buy from Woolworths, Coles or somewhere not in the Vodafone system you have the right to get your mobile phone unlocked with no charge.

      Still you have to contact the Vodafone customer service and to ask for a free unlocking because of the fact that you've purchased the phone from a grocery shop. They will ask you to visit any Vodafone shop and to verify your purchase by presenting the receipt to the assistant there.

      The IMEI is linked to this receipt and then they will ask you to visit the Vodafone unlock site: https://unlock.vodafone.com.au/voila/handsetunlock/self-serv…

      As soon as you enter the IMEI your unlock code shows up.

      I have done this three times in a space of a year and a half.

          so what's the excate process for this? i just tried & they told me to go to the webpage

      • bonky on 09/03/2019 - 11:29

        I dont believe this is true… unless you can explain how ?

      • rokufan on 09/03/2019 - 15:03

        I bought this phone from Big W in January and this doesn't work for me.

        I entered the IMEI and get this message:

        Unlock your device

        Sorry, Vodafone Australia can only unlock devices purchased directly from Vodafone stores or authorised dealers. To unlock your device, please contact your original supplier.

        • bargainparker on 09/03/2019 - 17:17

          Did you even read the instructions… providing it is true what nov said, it should work.

          • rokufan on 10/03/2019 - 22:36

            @bargainparker: I contacted Vodafone via Facebook and there reply was:

            There is an unlock fee to remove the network lock from prepaid handsets. You can check out the details here: https://www.vodafone.com.au/support/device/unlock

            This fee will apply with handsets purchased from any store, even supermarkets.

            • bargainparker on 10/03/2019 - 23:10

              @rokufan: Ok, that explains more, as you said you only entered the IMEI. Probably it doesn't work, but nov doesn't seem to be willing to explain how it works if it works, unless he didn't use Facebook, but called them. Though don't see why they would say no here and yes there…

      • slowFTL on 10/03/2019 - 22:34

        Has anyone been successful using nov method to get a free unlock from Vodafone?

          It didn't work for me.

          rang Vodafone, no help. They just said click "bought from vodafone" even though we didn't, and then was $50 to unlock…..

    Full specs.

    2G RAM, 5.45" screen, monitoring by Xi Jinping.

    • bargaino on 09/03/2019 - 01:41

      720x1440 display.

      But no NFC and no cheap unlock.

      • bargainparker on 09/03/2019 - 01:48

        For unlock, see above

        • bargaino on 09/03/2019 - 01:50

          Ah, I should click refresh before posting. Very strange story. Why?

          • bargainparker on 09/03/2019 - 12:01

            @bargaino: True Ozbargainer doesn't ask why. He/she is just happy to have saved money.

    Bit ironical that the monitoring will be hampered by this service being on the weakest network :)

    Does this phone have Bluetooth?

    Damn! we just purchased this at Big w yesterday for 109! most of me says, its only 20 bucks… but the OzBargainer in me will never let it go!

    Great phone for the price. Camera is not great, but as they say, you get what you pay for.

    Also If you are wondering, we have a kogan plan, and voda said even though Kogan uses the voda network, you still need to unlock it.
    bought the phone anyway an stuck the Kogan sim in just to test it out. WORKS! no unlock required
    tested it with my optus sim… no good. needs to be unlocked.

    Have a good weekend people!

      Great info. Thanks for sharing!

  • froddo on 12/03/2019 - 20:25

    Any update if phone could be unlocked for free?
