You need to contact Orange on the Customer Service number, I'll find it in a seck.

The PUK is a number, when the PIN is entered incorrectly 3 times, it blocks the SIM card. The PUK number unlocks it and you can retrive it by contacting Orange Customer Service number.

* Contract: 07973 100150
* Pay As You Go: 07973 100451

You can also get your PUK code online if you are a member or sign up with orange.

I think you only get 10 attempts to enter the PUK correctly aswell otherwise the whole phone gets blocked up.

Yeah, you only get a few attempts.. i borrowed my brothers phone once and messed around with it.. entered pin wrong 3 times.. then entered PUK number in wrong alot of times... then phone got blocked, and my brother was less than impressed with me :D

I had the same problem when I got a new phone, I was setting a pin code and messed it up and needed a puk code.
Anyway I don't think this will apply to everyone but my 4 digit ID number was the last 4 numbers of my phone number, you may aswell try that as it may work.

To get your puk code, just phone up orange.

How come I can still edit this post, even though I posted it ages ago :S
