I have recently messed with my Motorola Tundra and got locked out of my SIM I am with 2 degrees. When I open my phone it says "Your USIM PIN is blocked" I select "unlock" and it says "NZ COMMS USIM Blocked" "Enter PIN Unlock Code (PUK)" I had bought it off Trade Me without instructions nor box.

qaxaq: I don't know my SIM pin so i'll just buy a skinny sim I did it before and like it better.


A PUK code unlocks a SIM card that's been locked after entering the wrong PIN a certain number of times. The mobile operator will know this code.

If you don't care about your phone number then be welcome to go and buy another SIM. The telcos thank you for the money thrown at them...

Couldn't answer the security questions correctly (my fault) so I have to buy a new SIM I appreciate the help.
Could you recommend a company. Thanks.

So confused...

Edit: Assuming your phone supports it, Telecom.
