I bought a Blackberry Bold through ebay from the US, It's on an AT&T network and I was told it was unlocked.
Having had it delivered to the UK, I put my T-mobile sim in the phone, but the phone says invalid sim card and doesn't recognise my sim.
Does anyone know how to resolve the matter? Is it a fault with the phone?
Many thanks

Doesn't sound like it's unlocked. Go to global unlock and see if you can get it unlocked. They charge 1.99 to do it. Good luck.

Contact the seller first and if you are not satisfied file a dispute with Paypal.

mandony
verify that the phone is unlocked
tools>options>advanced>SIM card
Then type
MEPD
You will see a list.
It should say
DISABLED
under Network.
If it says
active
under Network, then it is not unlocked
